The encounter text is not referenced within the adventure itself, nor is any frequency suggested.The charts are presented in the Bestiaries for GMs to use - but they are most defnitely NOT included or required in the AP module adventure text itself.  At later stages of the AP, they are sometimes presented to the GM as an "option" to use. These suggestions tend to be downplayed -- and are prsented as options only in later stages of the APs when the threat they pose to the party are very different than the threat they might pose to a low level party.Similarly, there are some wandering monster tables in some of the APs Gazeteer text. Even then, looking at the Wilderness encounters in, say. Legacy if Fire 2, the EL level of all by the Dragon and, possibly, the Purple Worm is within the upper expected difficulty range of the party's abilities by that stage -- albeit an epic encounter, to be sure.Still , the encounters are presented as part of the region Gazeteer -- not as part of the adventure text itself. I may be wrong as it's been a while since I've read Legacy of Fire...Edit: Checked again - if you are looking for an example of the wandering Monsters within the adventure text itself, have a look at Legacy of Fire, part 3 p. 65. I'm sure you will agree that this is a very different style list and approach to a Wandering Monster within the module text itself than appears in the Gazaeteer encounter lists or in the Bestiary text.</blockquote>
