[QUOTE="deleteme123456, post: 4442349, member: 65832"] helps to read page 182 doesn't it? :) I was only reading the template itself on 183 (I had 184 open and was working backwards) and missed where you get to choose more powers. No recharge on the encounter powers means it could be a little boring once it's down to him and the PCs. I'll probably use him in the second to last fight because fighting him and Mr. K at the same time would be a little much I suspect, and what good right-hand man doesn't try to delay the heroes while boss gets his plans all set? :) HP 126 seems low... must be from all those levels as artillery. Since the original warlock was CON-based, I'll swap the wizard's INT for CON and the wizard's wis for INT and the dex for STR, at which point it's easy enough to fudge into STR 15/CON 15 so the guy can justify having plate mail (it was really important to his character and one of the reasons he changed to paladin). I'll probably add the magic items back to bring up the AC, attack roll, and damage value by 1 each, maybe 2 in the case of AC if I figure that leather + secondary INT is worth about +5 at level 6 where plate is worth +8, and there's the magic +1 to consider. The brutal rogue in the party will probably eat this guy alive (he has that at-will weapon vs Reflex) but oh well, not much for that unless I can actually hit with eyebite while being marked by a paladin or fighter. Maybe if the human berserkers actually keep the defenders busy... it could work. I expect them to be level 3 and possibly 4 by this point since they came in with 600-800 XP each depending on how many of the prelim sessions they were at, so a level 4 encounter with an extra elite thrown in should be a challenge but not too bad.
