Looking at the chart on Encounter Levels in the DMG it says that 10-12 CR 1 monsters are an EL of 8, and 2 CR 10 monsters are an EL of 12. This is my dilemma how do you add these together to make one full EL? Lets say I have 2 Fire Giants and 12 Gnolls. Thats EL 12 + EL 8. Obviously its not an EL of 20, can someone explain how to do this or point to a page in the DMG or somewhere that explains it better? I can't seem to find it if there is.
