Message: <blockquote data-quote="im_robertb" data-source="post: 4957273" data-attributes="member: 60909">Does anyone have any guidelines for creating new figurines of wondrous power, or adjusting existing ones? I'm looking at the Ironwood Hound (Level 10) from Dungeon #160, Page 54. I'd like to make it a Level 13 item, but I'm unsure what adjustments I should give it. Better attacks, defenses, and HP, probably, but I'm not sure how much - they are neither monsters nor PCs, and are sort of in between. If possible, I'd like to swap it's push+shift ability for knocking prone - would that be a fair swap-out?Also, the figurines in Dungeon #160 have melee basic attacks. The Adventurer's Vault says that Figurines don't have basic attacks, and therefore don't make Opportunity Attacks. Misprint, or intentional change?For reference:Ironwood Hound Level 10This wooden statuette depicts a hunting hound dashing toward its prey.Wondrous Item 5,000 gpPower (Daily ✦ Conjuration): Standard Action.
