A lot of the material that's out there contains too much filler. I don't always want to watch a party of strangers role play for 3 hours. This gets to the point and is useful for me as a DM. It's well paced and the information is delivered clearly, and with great background image supplements. Excellent work. I hope that you produce similar videos for other adventure modules.

I really wanted to enjoy this video as he does do a very good job of explaining things. The problem is, I have already run the first two parts of the adventure and was watching it for the latter end. But in the first 20 min, up until about where I was in the adventure, there were SO MANY discrepancies from what he said to what it said directly out of my adventure book that I am extremely hesitant to trust that what he says is going to happen is what I'm going to find in my book.

I'm about to dive into D&D for the first time with 4 other brand new people. They've pretty much put it on me to DM, so I picked this up with the starter set. I don't know anyone who personally plays it, so I have poured over videos, articles, reddit threads, and google search results trying to piece together a semi-quality campaign that I won't drive into the ground by not knowing how to direct or help my players. This is probably the best, most informative, and easy to digest video I've seen so far. Thank you SO much. I've taken a couple pages of notes for the first few encounters and I really feel confident in getting this started now!

Waaaa thank you! I am a new DM, with a brand new group of players. I offered to be DM since while I have never played, I am the most experienced, having watched some campaigns before. As much as I am loving the idea, having to read the whole booklet while taking notes is soooooo boring and tiring, while this helps a lot. Now I just take notes while stopping. It did take more than expected (20 minutes for five minutes of video 💀), but it's much more dynamic and engaging for me (I have lots of trouble focusing), and the thought that all I will need to do is add a couple post it notes to fill in the gaps is amazing and makes it all less daunting

About to run a bunch of people from my work through this. We do occasional "game nights", usually bringing in consoles, or cards, to even going bowling (Best Buy is a pretty cool company to work for). Well D&D got brought up, and of course a bunch of people at work have now heard of it and want to try. Me being the only one who has books, plays weekly, and has DM'd a few short campaigns offered to take the reigns. Haven't DM'd 5th ed (though I play it all the time), nor have I ever DM'd so many people (all of which are new). So I figured Phandelver would be a great start, plus it saves me a lot of leg work building an adventure. Especially since most of build up to game night is going to be making characters and teaching rules. This guide will definitely help me a lot with actually setting up and running the adventure, so I thank you profusely.

I really appreciate the digestible format of this video for the adventure. I like to heavily modify some module adventures and intend to use this adventure as the bonding quest for a Descend into the Abyss campaign adventure module. One thing I did was change the name of the Redbrands to Demon Rats. That is because several members are actually Wererats. (It's a way to mix up the adventure and to let me use a monster outside of dungeons and sewers). Another idea I had was changing the Redbrands into the Crimson Vipers. It will turn out that Glass Staff is actually a Yuan-Ti pureblood agent attempting to find the forge then use it to construct magical weapons for his brethren. Since Yuan-Ti do not see cowardice as a trait of weakness. This would explain why he is so eager to lie and run away at the Redbrand Hideout. I also added an Alchemist that is in the region searching for ingredients for improving his alchemist fire potion. It is so he can impress an Alchemist guild in Waterdeep and patent the improved formula to therefore sit on his mountain of gold and fame. (In his mind). After the party defeats the Demon Rats, the Alchemist sets up a carriage shop to sell elixirs to the residents. He'll also sell health potions to the party. In still trying to come up with an explanation for all the undead in the adventure. It doesn't seem like there is a source of causing so much to appear in the adventure. An idea I had is the Undertaker of the town of Phandalin discovered a key that opens a gateway to the Shadowfell. This was promptly closed quickly, but the rush of dark forces seeped and infested the ruins of the forge. Awakening the undead there. This what killed the Rockseeker brother, the Redbrands finding out the manor had an abundance of undead, and the ruins themselves. The Undertaker is a weirdo and gives the key to whomever fulfills his quest to bodyguard him when he goes grocery shopping. (The key can only be used on a specific time). If these players still wish to play together. I might use the key to set them up for a Curse of Strahd campaign.

My group has since left the town and are now exploring the ruins of leilon after doing a few random things. The dragon is still doing whatever because it didn't really do anything to make it feel like an urgent issue.

Great guide and format in general, but some minor mistakes: - goblins and orcs are from different tribes (clagmaw and manyarrows) - if you assault the banshee, she will not attack but disappear. - harbin gives 100 gm for the orcs, not 500 - the redbrands don´t necessarily know that their cloaks are saving them from the undeads in the crypt That´s until 22:30, I might come back after my campaign progressed ;)

This video was amazing! I humbly request DM Guides for ‘Lost Laboratory of Kwalish’, ‘Rrakmaa’, and ‘Tomb of Annihilation’. I would love to see a DM Guide for ‘Mad Mage’ but that would probably be multiple videos as there is just too much content to cover. Great work!

This gave me a very good overview over the whole module which I bought ages ago but never really ran because I was too lazy to read it back to back. Thank you so much! Now I am determined to run this this evening with my players. And I hope that my enthusiasm I got from you and this video will sweep like a wave over my players and echo within them in our little living room cave.

this is a great video explaining everything about the campaign in detail for dms running. however he *does* add in situations that are not technically part of the module. examples: the wraith doesn't attack if your rude or aggressive, she just disappears. the doors in tresendar manor are unlocked unless stated otherwise, there is no trap on the main door and the door to area 3 is just a door. However they can add to and spice up the campaign, they just arent actually part of the module. Still good though

I don't know if you read the PDF book that comes with this campaign, but a lot of what you've included here as detail/insight is explicitly indicated to be the opposite in the text. For example, the wolves are indicated as being ignored by the goblins regardless of the noise they make because the wolves are always fighting and barking. Disturbing the wolves won't alert anyone in the rest of the cave. Areas seven and eight are too close to the waterfall in order to discern anything other than immediate proximal noise. Also, the chest in Klarg's cave is immediately discovered by any player that does a general check of the supplies (no D6 check required)

It wasn't designed to be a 1:1 translation of the book but more of a simplified review of the contents. I removed some elements and changed the mechanics in some areas. I should have added this disclosure to the start of the video just in case some try to use the book in conjunction with the video, sorry for any confusion!

Subbing now. Really enjoy this as a new DM - straight and too the point while giving enough detail to really help the noobies like myself. I know they're less popular but... I recently purchased Tales from the Yawning Portal, and Candlekeep mysteries. I would love to see you break down the stand alone adventures in those book. Keep up the great content!
