[QUOTE="Anubis, post: 1660593, member: 2358"] The lesser dragons do indeed come out a bit overrated, even with the silver rule, but you can fix that by playing dragons as the book suggests and never putting them underground where they can't fly. (They're smart enough that they shouldn't try that anyway.) For dragons, metagame. That's the best suggestion I can make. Also, another huge problem in the versions online are in giving XP. Check out my alternative formula here: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=86471[/url] That formula MIGHT appear as official in the finished product of the Immortal's Handbook, or at least I hope. There's still some discussion, but I've pretty much answered every issue with the formula, and it works pretty much perfectly. Use the CRs from UK's system, but use that formula for determining XP if you want accuracy. (If you don't, you'll notice Level 9 characters gaining more for any specific encounter than Level 8 characters do, which is obviously a mistake as XP awards are designed to go down as you advance, not up.) Just a note, you'll have to go down to my posts to find the formula. I kinda sorta hijacked the thread because it was discussing what I was working on at the time. :D Speaking of which, UK, get in touch. We'll discuss the formula further now with the most recent discussion. ;) [/QUOTE]
