I was thinking maybe giant crocodile (CR 5) instead of grells... maybe it is too strong? Along the death tyrant? And I like the portal idea also.

I like the beholder idea, they never faced one... What if I use a Death Tyrant as the "eye" of the creature and two other monsters as his claws/ tentacles? Any ideas on what kind of CR I should be looking to those monster/ claws as to not overwhelm the party?

Oh, for the record, they are going to a demiplane to stop an eldritch abomination from entering the material plane.

I'm looking for suggestions for a challenging encounter for my campaign 'finale'. Any creatures/ ideas are welcome since I'll reskin it to match the campaign tone. I'm planning to have a large map on roll20, to let the PCs face some kind of minion troop before facing the proverbial "end boss"...

Yeah, I thought about that. But I have 15+ races in my homebrew and no subraces so it would be a lot of work. A feat would make it easier in the end, even if I have to let non-humans get the 4th level feat earlier...

How would you do the tiefling 'race' as a feat? I mean, instead of choosing a tiefling character, you go for any other race you want and then add the tiefling/ infernal blood/ devil heritage feat. So you can be a halfling, elf or maybe a goliath with demon blood if you want to. I was thinking...

So, the boss battle was brutal! The party won by the skin of their teeth (and one of them had to be raised after it), thanks for a bit of luck, and despite their terrible tactics (after 9 levels they still can't fight as a team). Now I'm having some kind of 'epilogue' where each of the players...

Nice! Gonna add some gargoyles as angel statues. Lots of great ideas, I should do it more often! 😄

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions! Here is version II of the BBEG (Isn't it too powerful for a 9th level party? :oops:) Again, any feedback is welcome! And you people are right. I'll add some small waves of weak CR 1 minions to harass/ distract the party. The idea of high CR NPCs in...

Funny thing is that the Monk almost never uses stunning strike. He used it only once in 9 levels, I think, prefering to keep his ki to do flurry of blows. But yeah, it's something to think about. I'm still in the fence about adding minions to the fight, I'm worried that the round will take too...

Btw, I forgot to add the paladin to the party! There are five players, not four! :rolleyes:

Oops... it's 15 feet radius. Thanks! No bystanders, the city is almost empty.

Oh, sorry, I forgot to write that he can only use each legendary action once on a given round.
