Why your combat Slogs

1. You haven’t set the epectations with your players
2. Because you’re building combats and not encounters
3. You haven’t red shirted it - you’re not familiar with the baddies or the mechanics
4. You as aren’t taking advantage of all 4 of the Pillars of DMing
5. The party doesn’t want to do a combat.
6. You don’t know how to make the combat intense
7. Phones are at the table
8. You make it go on too long
