[QUOTE="Hayato, post: 7296315, member: 6874573"] First of all, If you consider an NPC having magic items, then you will have to consider PCs having too, which will generate endless speculation. They'll have Luck Blade, Holy Avenger, Vorpal Sword, Shield+3, Armor +3, Mantle of Spell Resistance, Wings of Flying, Ring of Invisibility, and keep going on. With 8 of Intelligence, any illusion will work against him, so just the PCs throw any spell on him. Moreover, with 8 of WIS and no perception proficiency, anything invisible or stealthy will get close to him. Not to mention that in a matter of roleplay, 8 on WIS and INT is a dumb person. The point is, without any magic item, this character is weak, and anyone with magic item is strong. Without those items he'll have 18 AC, or 23 AC using Shield Spell. He'll don't have any immunity or resistance. I really don't know where he get resistance to ranged attack, always flying or truesight. If the ranged resistance or truesight is only by the will of the creator of the character, then it ends the discussion, since anyone can create an invincible character. If it can not homemade content, then the creator's will can not come into question. He may have all the defense and power of the world, but being slow (in the sense of distracted) and imbecile (for not being provided with any instruction) and his copy having the same status, I can not see him noticing any person who is getting close to him. Just throw a two Assassin Rogues (or Arcane Trickers invisible) with expertise on Stealth. In the end, HOW 8 INT AND 8 WIS is "extremely efficient when summoning demons, as Lawful Evil villain is extraordinarily organized and tyrant". He is not a tyrant. He is just a puppet of someone greater. People often find this game is an MMORPG that the weight of status does not matter, as does the weight of skill proficiency. Again, with 8 in intelligence and wisdom and without any proficiency in insight and history, he would never be a strategist. It would not be better that a barbarian who learned to use magic, he is powerful, but he is easily manipulated, either by persuasion or by magic. As a DM, I always love characters like this. [/QUOTE]
