[QUOTE="Voss, post: 3936297, member: 57593"] Alright, so not terribly surprised that bulettes are elite monsters. It seemed an obvious choice, what with the high damage, hit points, and the ability to be underground where pcs can't really get to it. So. From the article, we've got High AC. Knockdown attack (vs. ?Fortitude? everyone but the fighter fell) Rock burst. Both managed to move, knockdown and either bite or rockburst. Poor will defense Poor reflex defense Instant dive, immune to AoOs healing. (Instant dive, healing and movement in the same turn) Rogues have some sort of AC negating attack. Targets reflex instead? Article needs some editing. fighter keep his feet? places fear? it don't get? Come on, this is a preview, not a 6th grade writing assignment. Something bothers me a little about not being able to effect them at all when they're underground. That hasn't been true for most D&D editions. It may take some abnormal spells, but there have been options, even if you're using transmute rock to mud, disintegrate or dig. Its another hint that the more esoteric spells are gone in favor of damaging whatnots. [/QUOTE]
