When I redid the same tests the figures came up differently.So to me the whole thing was a totally black and white scenario that stemmed on the point: "does the attacking power of multiple weaker opponents degrade over the course of a fight with a single more powerful opponent?"The answer to that question is obviously a resounding YES. Therefore (as far as I can tell) theres nothing to debate. I made a mistake, simple as that.   I never quite understood that...I just figured you were having a bad day.I knew you'd see sense in the end.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> Exactly, so there was no point you getting your knickers in a twist about nothing you silly sausage! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />For ECLs over 20 I also had to apply the silver rule wholesale (5/6ths), THEN use the 2/3rds to get the CR.Normally I just do it all in my head. I have a pretty good understanding off the dynamic so the tables are just for other people. Although I do think they are very useful if you have a specific Party Level in mind. An Excel spreadsheet of that would be great.Although I have created a new table which is brilliant for working out multiple monsters of variable CR.</blockquote>
