CE vs. N (FFA): Very Young Howling Dragon vs. Thunder Worm

[Gansk]

Round 382

Gaylord is covered with glitter, but not blinded. (Rolled 16 Will save)

He slams Rags with his other hand for 15. (Rolled 22) Rags has 6 hp left. Gaylord steps to 10N30E.

 

[Infiniti2000]

Rags goes back to the slam, grab, control schtick.

 

[Gansk]

Round 383

Rags flops again. (Rolled natural 1)

Gaylord slams with his non-throwing hand and hits! (Rolled natural 20) 16 points of damage!

Rags is destroyed! Gaylord moves to 10N10E.

Next up for N in round 383: a lava ooze. (Sandstorm)

 

[Infiniti2000]

A large puddle of fiery magma flows into the arena to 10N80E. It leaves an almost glass-like wake as it slides over the burning sand of the arena.

 

[Gansk]

Round 384: Gaylord throws his spitball and coughs up another one. The magma hits! (Rolled 20-4 for long range) It does 28 points of damage, but the ooze ignores the extra fire damage. The ooze has 100 hp left.

 

[Infiniti2000]

The lava flows to 10N40E.

 

[Gansk]

Round 385: Another magma rock hits. (Rolled 20-2) The ooze takes 35 and has 65 hp left.

Gaylord moves to 30N5E.

Is it just me, or just maybe, is the Mini's handbook a tad unbalanced? 35hp damage?

 

[Infiniti2000]

The lava continues flowing to 25N10E. They call it Mini Handbook as a joke. The original title was Munchkin Handbook. It seemingly does 22-35hp of damage. That's a lot for CR5. No, that's more than a lot.

Is it just me, or just maybe, is the Mini's handbook a tad unbalanced? 35hp damage?

I was just preparing to comment on this. CR 3? How many level 3 characters would not get killed by one flaming rock? Also remember that 35 HP is not counting the fire damage, because the opponent is immune to fire.

I just noticed Infiniti saying this thing is CR 5. It is on the CR 3 list in the BoAA, which means it is probably listed as CR 3 in the back of the book.
