The Cave Troll in the Fellowship of the Rings movie was Large. It would attack every 12 seconds and deal x4 damage.eg. A Brachiosaur could stomp twice and give a tail slap every 48 seconds dealing x64 damage.Of course I am not necessarily saying you should adopt this rule, simply food for thought. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
