RAW: How to Move DND Along

How to Be a Better DM: Dungeon Master Tips for the DM Newbie, the Hobbyist and the Forever DM

Welcome back to this RAW episode of How to Be a Better DM.

This is from an Instagram Live I did about how to move DnD along when it gets slow and boring.

Here are 8 tips to help you move things along in your DnD games:

1. When the party has been planning too long introduce a complication.
2. Describe something trivial in suspiciously extreme detail.
3. Make the bad guys make a move
4. Jump Cut
5. Talk honestly with your players
6. Skip the Boring Bits
7. Bring the Energy
8. End things Early
