[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 3182713, member: 326"] Hey Buugi! :) Shouldn't they have 83rd-level equipment - just curious, or were you purposefully wanting to reduce their CRs? So the imbalance balanced itself out in different ways? :cool: :) Well an ECL 104 Fighter is roughly equal to an Orichalcum Guardian. Your PCs were a tad below that. Although one of the main powers of the Orichalcum Golem is meant to be its AC. Attacks (even from immortals) are meant to just bounce off it. Of course you always hit on a 20. ;) Of course if you know you are only going to hit on a '20' you may as well power attack for your full BAB each attack. :D The Akishra is a good opponent for a party of Lesser Gods. I do love that ability. :p As it should be. The monsters have to be a threat. Just wait until you start introducing them to unelementals. :D True Resurrection doesn't work on Outsiders. Though technically death would just mean a return to the immortal's divine realm where its manifestation would rejuvenate. Come down on that hard. When they don't use wishes for answering mortal prayers, deduct 5000 quintessence from the immortal. That way they will limit frivolous uses of power. ;) Great post - thanks for sharing! Very interesting indeed. I love hearing about powers/monsters I designed getting used in peoples campaigns and perhaps raising a few smiles/worry lines. :D [/QUOTE]
