[QUOTE="Felon, post: 5393138, member: 8158"] Kudos are definitely in order for your skill at identifying monsters solely by vague description. The only thing you might've missed was the necro mage, which was most likely a modified drow arachnomacner. The defenses that other players are piling on are Improved Defenses are Epic Fort, Reflex, and Will (untyped bonuses). Four feats nets ya +7 to every NAD. The death giants and titan were modified to deal revised damage. They wasted time trying to pile on the fighter though, who ran up and pulled them all around him. Then they broke off to do what the DM usually tries to do, which is gank the rogue with the much-more-hittable AC. This is why I'm so confident that the defenders are safe as houses, because the critters can't even squash the rogue proper. The DM likes melee monsters, and he doesn't like doing extensive end-runs around the party's strong suits. Basically, he's a softballer, and for some reason some players have gotten very hardball, particularly the pally player. [/QUOTE]
