[elh] Solar fairness?

As in the MM, Solars (at least that's one I can find off hand) get 5 attacks (from exceptional BAB given the numbers).

With the ELH, however, it's said that a high attack bonu never grants a creature mroe than four attacks with any given weapon using the full attack option.

About the only 'real' exception being the Monk Attack Progression. Now curious as to if it's fair to continue to allow the Solar its extra attack (along with other critters from pre-ELH sources that get 5 attacks).

Assuming working with the ELH framework (And since I'm DM it's my choice anyway but just curious).

Also if dropping their 5th attack what would be a reasonable ability, possibly dual wielding (considering that their greastsword is usable one handed).

Just recalculate their attacks per round. What, they don't kick enough ass for you? Boost other parts, or give them a Speed weapon, or let them cast Haste at will. You don't have to break the rules to make them absolute hard core mother f\/kers.
 

Hi there! :)

My suggestion is to drop them to #4 attacks. However, they seem to have missed the fact that Solars would carry Huge Greatswords so you should increase the damage to 3d6 (or 2d8 if you prefer).
