[QUOTE="clearstream, post: 7209509, member: 71699"] If can find something that looks reasonable I will be using it straight away in my weekly campaign. So it will get testing. One thought I had is rather than alter the XP value directly, it could be better to alter the CR value so that the treasure tables work without modification. (If we change the XP value so that we are using a higher CR creature against our PCs, then rolls for that creature won't generate appropriate treasure for their level. Whereas, if we change CR the creature will have less treasure. Sucky for the creature, but probably more balanced in game.) Up to and including CR 5, drop the CR by 1 and use the resultant XP value in encounters. From CR 6 to CR 11, drop it by 2 From CR 12 on, drop it by 3 That generally cuts their XP value by about half, but awkwardly lands creatures at the top of a band in the same CR as those in the bottom of the next. Perhaps it's better to drop by 1 up to CR 5, and then 2 from CR 6 on? [/QUOTE]
