i mean, if i was the referee, and they weren't in that architecturally precarious situation, i'd think that's a mighty fine solution to the puzzle, actually.
No, no, TTRPGs are all about solving the DM’s convoluted logic and linguistics puzzles that don’t make sense inside the world and have exactly one solution. Not about creative problem solving /s
I bet nobody has tried to just open the door.
Or just knock. Not the spell, literally knock on the door.
It was sealed with magic (I had detect magic going) and no handles, locks or visible seals
Look, I get it, it's embarrassing to try and pull a push door. It doesn't mean it's witchcraft. Just try pushing!
No lock, no handle, how does it open?
So the door itself had a sorta embossing design of an incomplete web. You would have to complete the webbing but there is a trap part that, if connected, triggers active, offensive traps. With a good investigation roll, my arcana and a Web spell from the rogue's cloak, we did the puzzle and the door opened itself
The worst one would be a petrified tree. They're a massive cylinder that looks like the roof of the cave, and then it falls loose and smashes you.
The cylinder cannot be harmed in any way
That's what wendigoon's great grandad said.
The secure perimeter fallacy strikes again
The dwarven lockpick (Adamantium hammer) is an adventuring staple for a reason; its fun and empowering to pick locks barbarian style.
