D&D 3E/3.5 CotSQ and 3.5

[locustus]

I want to run this adventure for my players using the revised ruleset.
Has anybody some advise which encounters/NPCs should be updated to reflect the rule changes? Are there already any converted NPCs on this board or the web?

Thanks in advance
Mark

Watch out for anything with DR. Also, many of the difficult encounters rely on haste, either with spells or magic items, so you'll need to rework them.

There are several threads on these boards and the wizard boards that discuss conversion. Do a search.

There is no "official" conversion site.

The main reason I didn't convert was (as mentioned above) most of the spellcasting villains rely on Haste as a tactic.

The only encounter that leaps to mind as a *real* problem is the balor.

The group's likely to be in the region of level 15-17 when they meet it. It's CR 18 in 3.0, which is a fair (if challenging) encounter.

In 3.5 it's raised to CR 20 and has some pretty horrific abilities.

Oh, and the zombies. Converting the zombies with 3.5 templates would be dull.
