Howdy-
Ok maybe I might be missing something here but looking over the MM monsters, they seem awfully weak compared to what they have to face vs the classes of the PHB. For example, in ver 3.5 the gibbering Mouther had an AC of 19, in 5E its AC is now 9. An Ancient Blue Dragon in 3.5 has an AC of 38, in 5E is AC 22. Are we as DM's supposed jack up the monsters abilities and everything else as we see fit?
Honestly, I'm not a killer DM but I would also like to present to my players a challenging campaign, not one where all they need is a 2 or better to hit an ancient red dragon.
