I like that this makes the poison VERY potent, and encourages the party to stick to ranged attacks, knowing that an unlucky die roll could quickly result in a dead melee fighter. The other way would be to have it as a rider on a tentacle attack, but not require the initial save. So, each time you get hit with the tentacles, you get paralyzed without a save, but can limit the duration by having a successful save in subsequent turns. Makes poison immunity a bigger deal in the fight, and makes paralysis something that happens a lot. Dex saves are over-used in D&D and this exacerbates the issue.Though, I do reject the premise of the thread. Editing is tough. It's inevitable that stuff like this slips through the cracks. I haven't particularly noticed a big trend in more errors happening in this run of books than in any other run.</blockquote>
