    \$\begingroup\$ Thanks Jack, I think this is spot on re our relationship with the DM. We give him regular feedback, and I agree the risk of death needs to be there. I still as a DM personally would be interested at what xp budget encounters tend to become so deadly that TPK from duking out is greater than 5% or so. \$\endgroup\$ Commented May 15, 2022 at 20:34

    \$\begingroup\$ Sure, think I get where you're coming from. There's a great question for 3.5 where in the comments Hey I Can Chan says to KRyan, "I'd argue that rules are a waste of time at level 30." Similarly, somewhere in 3rd tier, I'm just not sure encounters can be balanced by XP. Encounters get super-swingy. Some of ours have hinged in part on whether we had telepathic bond up or not. But hopefully, someone will come up with some numbers for you. \$\endgroup\$ Commented May 15, 2022 at 20:52
