I remember once my players spent like 15 minutes discussing how to get across a 10 foot long puddle of water in a cave.
Eventually I had to remind them that 10’ isn’t that far, and you can RAW jump your strength score in feet with a running start. They didn’t need to build a bridge or cut into the walls. They could also just go into the water, but I understand not wanting to submerge yourself in cave water when you don’t know what’s down there.
My friends and I once came across what was clearly a pit of spikes (in hindsight), and instead of going over them…proceeded to climb down into the pit of spikes, navigate through them, and climb up the other side. The DM said nothing and just let it happen. Me and the rogue were probably both a little intoxicated (I definitely was). If the barbarian knew, she also didn’t say anything.
