Pretty solid combat gauntlet

4/5

I ran this one in the high tier recently and everyone has a fun time with it but there was definitely one big issue for us at least. The first combat was way more dangerous than advertised and the final combat was much easier.
The enemies in the first combat were fairly tanky between their AC and HP pools. Between their tactics and attack modifiers it nearly turned into a TPK. If we didn't have an unarmored rogue at the table the monsters would have downed both unarmored casters before they got a second turn.
Inversely the final combat was way easier than expected. The weaker enemies' health an ac were so low one got one shot by a caster who rolled a 15 on their attack roll with a cantrip. The main monster wasn't exactly weak but it found itself 1v4 against a party that was decently equipped to counter it's defenses. The encounter quickly went from severe to trivial.
All this said it was still a fun time, in terms of pacing the difficulty of the scenario the only change I'd make is switching the first and last combats
