A comfortable band of -1 to +1 creatures is very narrow for the GM to work with. PWL opens up that band to accommodate a larger variety of enemies. A level 1 guard NPC in default PF2 has AC 18 and hits with +9, and a level 5 flame drake has AC 22 and hits with +14. In PWL, the guard has AC 17, +8 to hit, while the drake has AC 17, +9 to hit. The drake would be very difficult/TPK material for a level 2 default party, but a PWL party could take it on.PWL can also make for a more realistic feeling world since the level 5 fence NPC can no longer annihilate a group of six guards!</blockquote>
