[QUOTE="EarthSeraphEdna, post: 3811069, member: 49309"] How so? The L1's got an additional +5 bonus to attack and hit over the L2 (minus the latter's BAB), and assuming they both had 2nd-level PC equipment I'd think the L1 would pulverize the L2. I've also got three more CR/ECL-related questions for you: 1.) What's the current formula for PC and NPC wealth? The formula for PC wealth in v5 was [ECL^3 * 100 gp], but I remember you saying that [ECL^2 * 10,000 gp] would be more appropriate, despite the fact that it gives sub-epic PCs much more wealth. Would this new figure be applicable to v5 as well? PC wealth was worth roughly 1/6 your ECL in v5, but now it's 1/3 your ECL in v6. 2.) Should we use the "compound golden rule" ([URL]www.enworld.org/showpost.php?p=3169740&postcount=3[/URL] ) under v5 to produce a more accurate ECL/CR result? 3.) Under v5, what would be the ECL increase for a monster immune to enchantment, illusion, and transmutation magic? And what would be the overall CR increase for a "+4 divine bonus to: armor class; attack rolls; checks (ability checks, caster level checks, skill checks, turning checks); difficulty class (for any special abilities, spell-like abilities, spells); initiative; saving throws and spell resistance"?
