Message: <blockquote data-quote="UngeheuerLich" data-source="post: 8406177" data-attributes="member: 59057">Some thoughts:4 or 5 PCs in a party use an xp factor of 1 against a solo monster. 6 PCs would use 0.5. In my experience, 5 well built PCs with some powerful magic items should be treated as 6 PCs and use the 0.5 multiplier against solo monsters.Now you will have an adjusted xp value of 7500, only slightly above 6600 for 6 PCs or 5500 for 5 PCs.So killing 2 PCs even with a loss is about what deadly is meant to be. It does not mean deadly in the sense of "all PCs will die", but rather "enemies have a good chance to challenge a well rested party".Edit: as said in the post above: even a few zombie minions spread out might have tipped the balance heavily towards the mummy lord. I have challenged lvl 5 PCs with 5 Zombies, 4 creeping claws and a CR2 Wizard with a wand of magic missile. (i think it was CR2).</blockquote>
