Converting Greyhawk monsters

[Cleon]

I like this revision.

Revising the Working Draft so it's revised with the revision.

It's missing values for X and Y. I'm thinking something between -2 and -4 for the X (defense softening) and the Y (Fort DC) works out at 24.

 

[Cleon]

Oh, and you wanted the boring standard-issue All-Around Vision.

Updating the Working Draft.

 

[freyar]

I'd make the softening penalty -2.

 

[Shade]

I'd make the softening penalty -2.

I'll agree with that.

 

[Cleon]

I'll agree with that.

Sounds OK.

*blink* *blink*

What, it's not like you're expecting me to update a working draft or anything, is it.

 

[freyar]

There's still a xorn in the all-around vision.

Question about the soften. Should it affect magical enhancement bonuses to the armor bonus?

Good heavens, no!

My vote is "no".

Whichever side the Xorn stands on the Aurotyugh can see it, that's what All-Around Vision does!

Updating the Working Draft.

Hmm, the Xorn appears to have vanished. Must be using its earth glide power. The "golden otyugh" can't see through stone...

Question about the soften. Should it affect magical enhancement bonuses to the armor bonus?

Well, a literal interpretation of the original power would suggest it does, but I don't mind if it doesn't. I guess we should amend it to "a -2 penalty to its hardness, armor bonus, natural armor bonus and any damage reduction that is bypassed by any mundane material. Note that this penalty can not reduce any enhancement bonus the target might have on its armor or natural armor."

I favor this.

 

[Cleon]

I favor this.

So, shall I add that to the Working Draft?
