Owlbear was almost too easy now.  Hmmm.  Well, either way, it was fun.  I enjoyed the fight.  I really like that not every fight is putting me on death's door.  That really makes the gameplay more enjoyable.  
Don't get me wrong either.  The owlbear reduced my Ranger to 7 HP in 1 turn.  My party was at level 3.  So, if he'd gotten some more hits in, it probably would have been harder.  I just managed to get lucky and Menacing Attack worked on my first hit.  Then I swarmed around the owlbear so that when she tried to run I got several more hits on her from each party member.  So in 3 rounds she was dead.
Fun little thing happened too.  I forgot I had passive on, and I knocked out the owlbear mother instead of killing her.  Apparently, that didn't stop the fight.  The baby was still trying to kill my party.  I had to then kill the mother right away to end the fight.
