Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk

Bought as a gift. Receiver was pleased.

Great product – exactly as described. Fast delivery and good quality. Would definitely purchase again if needed. Gotta love dnd

The book arrived in good condition and the story is great

Standard edition of the Phandelver and Below adventure book, first third of the book is a remixed version of the Lost Mine of Phandelver and the last two-thirds of the adventure are original It's got some cool new alien creatures and psionic monsters, definitely worth checking out if you want to expand on the Lost Mine of Phandelver adventure 👍

I have just completed this after nearly 11 months of meeting every week for a three hour session. The adventure has a straightforward linear structure, the players find an objective, got to one location to complete it and then find the next objective. It is the most Lovecraftian D&D adventure I have come across, you will need keep an eye on how well they are coping with the battles and be prepared to give them some help sometimes unless you want a Total Party Kill. There is a strong chance one or more players will get fate that a raise dead spell won't bring them back from. The first third of the book is a representation of the Lost Mine Of Phandalin, the Starter set adventure published in 2014. A few minor changes have been made, some of the NPC races have been changed, a couple of monster stat blocks have been rebalanced. THe other two thirds is a new adventure which will take characters from fifth to twelfth level level, Shattered Obelisk. This is centered on the same town of Phandalin, and some NPCs have a recurring role. It is expected that the same group of characters will carry on into this part. However if most of your group have already played Lost Mine Of Phandelver, you could start with Shattered Obelisk, or follow on from another 1st to 4th level adventure.

Quick delivery, good quality

I've started using this book at the D&D club I run at school with the year 9 & 10 students. This will probably keep them going for the most of next year, possibly longer. It's well laid out although some prior reading is always a good thing before a D&D session. It comes with pretty much all you need to run the adventure. You'll need the core books obviously and I'd recommend the monster cards (0-5) as this really speeds things up. This book is ideal if you're looking to start a new D&D campaign. I'd highly recommend it.

Great wee book and beginner friendly.

Really fun adventure, especially for new DMs! I got it as a first time DM and my group loves it so far. There's of course some stuff to work on, but I can recommend it big time. Like the first encounter and the first dungeon. Really, don't TPK.

producto clásico, muy buena aventura y tiene unos buenos aditamentos que no me esperaba

Offre ai nuovi Dungeon Master e ai giocatori l’opportunità di immergersi nella loro prima vera avventura Horror di Dungeons & Dragons. Mantiene le amate missioni di “Lost Mine of Phandelver”, che si sviluppano in una nuovissima avventura con temi classici di D&D e una sfumatura di orrore. Presenta un bestiario con circa due dozzine di nuove creature che mettono in mostra la magia psionica, l’orrore del corpo e altro ancora. Fornisce un’appendice magica che include nuovi oggetti metamagici consumabili e magia dei duergar. Include una mappa poster a doppia faccia con la regione di Phandalin da un lato e la città di Phandalin insieme agli incontri chiave dell’avventura dall’altro.

I was playing though LMOP and looking for a place to go next when this was released. Great continuation for LMOP. My PCs seem to like it although we have not come near finishing it yet. My first time using milestone levelling but it is pretty much necessary (at least as far as we have progressed). As usual with any of the official D&D books the artwork and quality is amazing.

The start is a bit linear as it comes from an beginner box, and maybe too focused on combats / dungeon exploration. But the story then starts to branch and the campaign is overall very enjoyable
