[QUOTE="Fend, post: 3465908, member: 51598"] hey everyone, this is my first time using these forums ( i used to go on WoTc) but i must say, it looks pretty snazzy here. Anyway.. ive been thinking for a while about an upcoming boss encounter in my campaign involving a CR 11 Deamon. my party is comprised of 5 level 7's and 1 level 8 and have been fighting deamons for a while now so they have tooled up with cold iron weapons and know what spells to use and not to use. The problem is though, The deamon i wanted to use - a Hezrou - has a DR against good and i dont think theyve even taken that into consideration. So my Gut feeling is that they will be all slaughtered horribly. So ive been thinking of being fair and using a Khastighur from MM 4 instead. Its got more Hp, but the DR is to cold iron. It has less Powers, but packs a punch and is still fairly manuverable. Basically the Hezrou (large)- first turn - summons Minions, casts blasphemy, then chaos hammer and unholy blight before wadeing around killing things left and right (made even more nasty because of its stench) The Khastighur is more simple (huge) - first turn - Charges to its threat range. then charges to point blank. Then quickened teleports and charges again. makeing full use of its Gore attack and powerful swings. I was also thinking because the battles on a mountain top - it may even pick up and hurl people who are particularily irriateing off the mountain side. Anyway. Theyre both the same CR. But which would you use? the brutal Khastigur? Or the Fearsom hezrou? [/QUOTE]
