Reminder for DMs: Don't nerf your players, buff your encounters

Just came off reading this [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/3d6/comments/i98rqm/my_character_got_banned_ideas_on_hexblade_builds/) where a character build was "banned" in-game, after the DM already approved the build beforehand. As a DM, we know sometimes our ...(read more)
