[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8081388, member: 83242"] Whatever the changes, they gods are not getting nerfed. As I indicated in my comparison of Epic Bane (CR 39) and Mythic Annam (CR 39), the mythic version is overall a much tougher encounter. Now, when I port something I often review it. So, individual gods or monsters might get nerfed (or buffed), but no whole sale changes. Right now I am planning on using the CR in the epic updates, but the CR is calculated with the revised chart on the OP under EPIC TRAITS. This chart is just an extrapolation of the chart in the DMG. Therefore, the numbers are a little lower than the ones in the epic updates. However, the mythic trait more than compensates for the difference. That is not how the mythic concept works. The DPR doesn't change because it is conceptually to versions of the same monster. Not one monster with 2x the HP. The monster before and after the mythic trait is active needs to have its CR balanced independently. That is the beauty of the system for keeping BA in check while providing a much more challenging encounter. [/QUOTE]
