Common combat strategies on monster pages
Throwing things would be a common addition to most monster pages. Should we just:
- mention throwing things at monsters, or
- list the common missiles that can be thrown, or
- list a complete list of missiles that can hit at range, or
- list a recommended list of items to throw, or
- just refer to softening monsters up?

I think that adders (and other very early-game threats like gnolls, etc.) are a special case. It'd be best (imo) if we went "like most other enemies...". Adders are particularlly good at limiting options, and killing players who don't use everything -- so anything deserves a mention. For example, blind quaff "works" for most things in early D, though they apply to poisonous adders the most. I think how it was, was fine; list two-three effective things you can throw, and readers can derrive that they can throw other things. --Hordes (talk) 03:15, 20 March 2022 (CET)
