[QUOTE="Kugar, post: 461071, member: 442"] [b]Re: Re: "Spellstitched"[/b] DC should = 10 + 1/2 HD + Cha mod = 24 for the above. The DC looks good. The CR looks a little low, not because of the special abilities but for the ability scores, HD, and attacks. I'd say its CR should be at least 15 because of the DR. (My general rule is DR = x/+ (1/3 CR) so the party could hit it with weapons when used as a normal encouter, but the DR is a pain if you use the monster as a encounter with an EL 4 or 5 higher than the party's level.

This ability should be taken into account in the encounter's EL if it becomes stategically important. The amount of times it can NEB should also be a non-issue. How many rounds do you think this guy is sticking around for if the good guys are within 100' The shield is all goodness though and a nasty effect :) All around good monster - consider this a *yoink* Thank you Gidien / PC. :) [/QUOTE]
