Monster Manual 2 question

[Flobby]

When did they fix the math for monsters? Was it MM2 or 3?
I was thinking of getting MM2 but I don't know if its worth it if I just have to make adjustments.

MM2 fixed solo monsters a bit- reducing their hit points. I'm not sure, but I think it may have began to bump up damage on monsters as well, a bit like MM3.

Minions were also adjusted in MM2. But the damage adjustment happened in MM3.

MM2
- reduced the defences of elites and solos (removed the +2 to 3 defences)
- reduced solo's HPs to about 80% of that in MM1
- increased minion damage, and confirmed minions with roles (e.g. soldier minion).

MM3
- introduced new stat block, along with traits and triggered actions
- increased damage to all creatures, most notably in paragon and epic
- generally made monsters a bit more interesting (certainly than MM1)

In MMII
- They partially fixed elites and solos.
- Gave minions roles.
- Increased minion damage.

In MMIII
- They increased all monster damage.
- Improved and cleaned up the stat block.
- Gave better info and more fluff.
- Cleaned up the stats a little more.

Has a table been published somewhere to increase the damage? Or is it not even worth it to get MM2.

It is in the July Errata, you should be able to find it on the official site.
