[QUOTE="LokiDR, post: 285288, member: 6239"] Your point about AC and advancement is well taken, though I never use advancement, so I wouldn't know about that. :) As for the explode, that was late thought. I would think it would be DC15 ref save for half. I don't want to reduce the damage though. A 1st level dwarf barb isn't what it was focused at, and it is a CR 2. I was thinking of it as a devices that could be dangerous in large numbers, almost not matter what your level was. I don't want this to be too much weaker than the arrow hawk it was based on (CR 3, AC 20, +9 ranged touch for 2d6 damage, several imunities/resistances) My next question would be how much this little sucker would cost? Obviously less than the 50,000 gp/1000XP of a flesh golem. But what would be the body and total costs? What spells would be need? What level? I would make a wild guess of something like 12,500gp, 200 for the body, needing fly, searing light, and clairvoyance. Ideas, improvements? [/QUOTE]
