The path ahead is completely overrun with plants that regrow within seconds of being cut!

Magical Effect. The overgrowth is a magical effect created through evocation magic. Using dispel magic on the plants to suppress its enchantment for 1 hour requires a spellcasting ability check, and on a success the adventurers gain an expertise die on ability checks made against the overgrowth.

Vulnerable to Fire. When an adventurer uses an attack, spell, or other effects that deals fire damage against the overgrowth they gain an expertise die on their next ability check against it.

Possible Solutions
