Is it just me, or did I miss the rule somewhere, it seems Insubstantial undead don't add their Con score to HP.
Frex: Phantom Warrior (MM pg 116), Level 4 Soldier, hp 40, Con 12
HP formula for soldier is 8 + Con + (level x 8).
Phantom Warrior should have 52 hp (8 + 12 + [4 * 8]).
Same thing applies to the Wraith, Spectre, Trap Haunt (well, it should have 54 hp without its Con).
The Wailing Ghost on the other hand seems to subtract twice its Con (should have 117 hp, has 91, Con 13)
I know the whole DM's Toolbox thing is guidelines and few monsters actually hit 100% on the formulas (esp defenses). Just didnt notice til now that not all HP follow the formula structure either.
