[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 7214358, member: 6855114"] I whole heartedly agree with you. Our friend must have had a really really different experience in 1st than what we had. He does have some good points here and there but the essence of his posts are somewhat biased in a negative way. On the other hand the 1e marilith was much more dangerous than a CR4. She may not have high hp but her AC, roughly translated should be above the 20. In fact with the formula she would be AC 22 (the upper limit) which is quite high in this edition. (the formula is : 19 - AC with upper limit of 22, so the marilith should be 19- -7 = 26, lowered to 22) At 26 AC she would be quite hard to hit don't you agree? Yep it come to think of it your are even more right than I first thought. It was indeed easier to challenge players in 1e than in 5e. It can be easily done in 5e. But it was easier in 1e. [/QUOTE]
