How do you get the 30 extra hit points from one legendary resistance?

Yeah, the problem is that, with more robust spells (like Charm Monster and Polymorph), there is a lot of "edge case" language. It's hard to decide what to include and what to leave out. The damage spells are simple (nearly one-liners). The edge-case spells make me not like the additional spell...

This is why I prefer to design stat blocks with an extra "block" of spells that can be referenced or not. I get it that a publisher is not going to waste the money on paper, but it is immensely helpful in combat for DMs. Something like: Followed by (on a separate page, or the back):

I have modified my version of the stat block based on previous comments: It's 47 lines versus 53, and it has hanging indents.

I get this. I have gone back and forth with that very thought. Yup - agreed; however, I am thinking of a 3rd-party, PDF-only product. It's not a "confusion" per se. It's more of a visual distraction. For example, if you had a line like: Immunities: Acid, Blinded, Lightning, Poison...

Actually, my edit at the end of the post (and what is confirmed by Chaosmancer) is that there is a justification. The dragon has proficiency in Initiative.

Okay, I am a stat block nerd and have been designing and redesigning stat blocks for years. While I have some minor complaints about the new design, overall, I think it's a good change. Here are a few quick notes, along with some questions I am hoping someone in the community can help with...

Got it, and thanks (however, there are two other conversions of this AP on DMsGuild).

Yes, on DMsGuilld. In addition to being a collection of stat blocks, it contains the following: Clarifying Content. This is to clarify topics that were either glossed over or make no sense in the original AP. Conversion Complication. This is used a lot for 3rd edition permanency effects that...

Can I suggest a printed discount if a buyer bundles MMI and MMII?

Personally, I am hoping for classic creatures from the Fiend Folio.

The Shackled City Adventure Path.

Got it. And I see that the flavor text for things like demons is not included in that license, correct? (Other than, "Demons embody the destructive nature of chaos.")

I am doing a full conversion of a 3rd edition adventure path into fifth edition. I really like the creatures from the Monstrous Menagerie and would love to include their stat blocks along with descriptions, legends and lore, and possibly signs; however, I don't know if this is allowable. So far...

Coming back to this thread for a follow-up question. The parry that a character gets from using a weapon with the parrying property is never stated as using a Reaction. At my table, I would rule it as using a Reaction, but I am curious if it is clarified anywhere in the text?
