Don’t Split the Party! How and Why to Keep a D&D Group Together

45K views • 6 years ago • 14:24 Don't Split the Party! We've all heard this before in Dungeons & Dragons.

Don't split the party is something Dungeon Masters often caution their players about, too. But why all the bother about not splitting the party? What's so wrong with splitting the party in D&D or RPGs in general? In this video I discuss reasons NOT to split the party and how a Dungeon Master can encourage the group to stay together and not split up.
