Hi guys,
I just started running Rise of the Runelords for a group of friends.
I am a novice GM so I have been making sure to read ahead, prepare, have everything ready. Our first session went great but now in preparation for the second I'm having issues on when to give the level up to level 3.
The progression at the start of the Rise of the Runelords book says I can either give it at end of Catacombs or early in Thistletop...
I was hoping I could get some advice on when people think its optimal?
I have a pretty good min/maxer playing as a magus
A seasoned 2h fighter
Then 2 COMPLETELY NEW players playing as a witch and a paladin
The first 2 parts went smoothly for the most part, there was 2 knock downs that required stabilizing but one was due to the fighter being gung ho and the second was due to a party split coupled with an attempt at non-lethaling the goblin in the house.
If any additional information would help or any experienced GMs offering tips, its greatly appreciated.
