can be challenging on even its Normal difficulty setting, but Tactician provides the perfect way to crank up the difficulty for a particularly punishing run. Like tabletop, features a wide array of systems to master and items to employ. Although these can seem intimidating at first, gaining a true mastery over them and being unafraid to burn through resources can ultimately make many fights in Normal start to feel like a walk in the park.
Committing to Tactician difficulty isn't for the faint of heart, and it's best to understand what will change before deciding to make the world of the Forgotten Realms more threatening than ever before. The name of the mode makes its basic promise clear, as Tactician requires more careful strategy and precise leveraging of risks and supplies to press forward throughout the campaign. Finishing a playthrough on Tactician can be a uniquely rewarding experience, however, and the bragging rights that go along with it are nothing to sneeze at either.
Anyone who has ever DMed a campaign should be intimately familiar with how much combat difficulty can be adjusted by the amount of intelligence imbued to the enemies.

Cover and elevation likewise see a general boost in usage, and enemies find more effective ways to deal with a party that has the high ground. Immobilizing spells can become a nightmare in certain situations.
Enemies are more likely to take cover in Tactician mode, so direct ranged attacks aren't always a good idea on the setting.
One of the biggest elements of tactics is the smart employment of items and weapons, as even a weak character can wreak havoc with powerful spell scrolls or the clever use of miscellaneous tools. Tactician mode puts more of these possibilities into the hands of enemies, helping to give them access to even more complex strategies.
