[QUOTE="Sollir Furryfoot, post: 2906430, member: 748"] Re-adjust their CR to something more appropriate, truthfully they're probably a very very strong CR 6 or on the weaker half of CR 7 creatures (Regen combined with pretty good spell resistance for their level makes them really annoying to kill). Then, advance it two fighter levels, which would give it 17 more hp, 3 more feats (2 fighter bonus and one normal), one of the feats can be a Weapon Focus, giving it a +10 attack bonus (3d6+7, 19-20/x2 as usual), and possibly Quicken Spell-like Ability (Invisibility) or Fly-by Attack. Give it some ogre bodyguards and keep it invisible at all times. The first strike in combat could be against a spellcaster, preferably flanking with one of its ogre bodyguards for a nasty surprise. It would stay visible one round, letting opponents attack it and gather around it, then use its Cone of Cold on as many people as it could, then use its quickened invisibility before flying up to regenerate the damage taken on it. Next round it can quaff a potion, perhaps Bull's Strength, letting its regeneration work for another round before attacking again. If you chose to give him Fly-by attack, he can swipe at said barbarian with near-impunity. That sounds more like a nasty CR 8-9 encounter (minus ogre bodyguards) [/QUOTE]
