@dungeons Alright, listen up. The Deep Gnome's a tough bit, but not unbeatable. His CR of 1/2 is within our range, but still a challenge. Melee's a solid bet, but our current weapon's a Crossbow. You could switch to melee, but it'd be improvised or unarmed, and that ain't much better. You could try a ranged attack, but it'd be at a disadvantage. Running's an option, but it's a risk. My gut says stick with what we know. Go for the ranged attack. It may be at a [1/2]
