If it's trying to grab a window ledge at 16' above itself, then it needs to make a DC 32 jump check (with a run up). A cloud giant is a huge humanoid. It can reach 32 feet on tiptoes but, as I read it, needs to make the same DC 32 jump check to reach a ledge at 40'. Now I realise the cloud giant is strong (+12 str bonus) and fairly fast (50' - +8 to check). But it cannot jump higher than the 10 feet up. And thats going to be a DC40 check - it'll need to take 20.In proportion to it's size/reach/etc, that distance for the giant is roughly equivalent to a 2ft leap up for a human. A DC of 8 for a human.Similarly, the same logic applies to long jumps. This 24' tall gaint wouldn't be able to leap a 25' jump from a standstill? Rather similar to a 6' human making a 6' jump - which almost anyone can do.I think this is a bit silly. Does this bother anyone else? Am I reading it wrong?Has anyone 'fixed' it?To help:</blockquote>
