[QUOTE="GMMichael, post: 8198917, member: 6685730"] Goal for 6e (or Level Up?) - design an optimal approach for defeating each monster. It might be there in 5e (likely in a book by Keith Ammann), but it's also possible that iserith is right, and it's not must-have information. The local guardsman knows that her sword will eventually kill most creatures in the realm. The local ranger, though, knows which bait, weapon type, time of day, terrain, and traps will make hunting a monster a risk-free (mostly) endeavor. Would all PCs have access to that information in the Monster Manual? Yes. Should they all be able to recall it will a check? Heck no. Re: OP, I'll cough up information, even fluffed-over stat block info, for a good roll, but it will be related to what the character has experienced and not what the player has experienced. A poor roll probably means that the character is too stressed (under the heat of the monster's breath) to bring up fun-facts. [/QUOTE]
