After dealing with the goblins and spider hp/ac balance, I am looking forward to reaching Baldur's Gate and receiving the seemingly mandatory "clear the rats from the tavern cellar" quest. Imagining a 250 hp Momma rat summoning swarms of 25 hp baby rats with diseased bites, while protected by cr lvl 6, 100 hp/15ac guardian rats with multiple bite/claw attacks each turn.
Please don't give them any ideas!
I hadn't thought of it until you mentioned it - I do crave low level rat quests. Its always nice afterwards to look back and be like "remember when times were simple and an innkeeper had rats eating his grain? Look at us now." Right now its the rick and morty "quick adventure, in and out" freak out feeling haha.
