    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Hey no problem, I appreciate the timely responses I am getting today. Shade: That arrow swarm is a nifty ability and I agree it should warrant a CR of 1, but the ability to cause 3 hp of damage in one round isn't really all that big, at least in the grand scheme of things. Give that ability to...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    No, thank you. You're the ones doing the hard part, I'm just the armchair quarterback. I'm just looking to learn how to convert in case anything else I find in the old books looks interesting.

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Cool, just wanted to make sure the movement figure had been accounted for and I wasn't missing something. Speedy little devils! Yeah, I would love a copy of the LA adjustment factors, that thing does help. Scary High Level Kercpa... Agreed. :cool: *ADDED: Low level though the three arrows...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Wow, that looks great. LA+3 :confused: Whoa... Only minor correction - Unless the conversions changed from 3e to 3.5e - is the land speed should be 30. MM4 MV9 Climb 15 translates to 30 & 40 (9x2.5 =22.5 per conversion round up to nearest 10 is 30). I would disagree about the spot DC, those...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Looks great, the one thing I'd change is straight from the conversion manual regarding Movement rate. By my calc, the Movement 9 should translate to Movement 30' using the conversion manual. 9 x 2.5 = 22.5 round up to the nearest multiple of 10 is 30'. Sidenote: Glad to be home and see the...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    :) YAY! Of course next week I'm going out to the Gulf of Mexico and won't be back for a month... Arg, timing is everything. Did you want me to post the version I've come up with and am using or did you just want to go from scratch?

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    LA are the trickiest because it is based upon GM judgement. I'd have to call the creature "Multiple Threat" (3/4 of HD to +2 HD). So HD is 4 +2 would be a 6 CR. Using a sample creature "Ogre Mage" they have a LA of 1 less than the CR. Forgive me if my calcs are off, I'm new at this... I'd say...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Magic Resistance of 100%? Per the conversion manual you Divide the Magic Resistance by 5 and add the result to 11. 100 / 5 = 20 + 11 = 31 So the SR should equal 31 Hope that helps <img>

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Can we add Faery Dragon to the list? Title pretty much says it all. But can we add Faery Dragon to the queue? Email me when you get to the Kercpa please (I've got a decent working model I'm using, of course a general approval and guidance from the experienced converters is always welcome) I...

    Converting monsters from the second edition Monstrous Compendiums

    Awesome site I have a request (looks like you're done with the previous conversion). Kercpa (I have an NPC one I made but I have a player joining that wants to try it out. I'd like to nail down the extras before handing it over) Need the as a character too. Basics of what I did based upon the...
