Message: <blockquote data-quote="Derren" data-source="post: 5759862" data-attributes="member: 2518">Another example for this would be Bahamuts human form.In his human form he is accompanied by 7 gold dragons (named ones, so real creatures who can act independently, not summons). But as fighting Bahamut and 7 gold dragons in the same encounter would be unbalanced, Bahamut instead uses the gold dragons as ammunition to fuel his powers. And in combat they still behave like summons and not as independant creatures they are and are vastly weaker than real gold dragons.[code]Area Burst Gold Dragon Rescue (standard; uses one canary)Area burst 1 within 30, centered on ally; +41 vs. AC; the target is stunned (save ends). Effect: The ally in the origin square gains fly 10 until the end of its next turn.Ranged Summon Gold Dragon (standard; uses one canary) SummoningRanged 20; Bahamut summons a Large gold dragon in an unoccupied space within range. The dragon has speed 8, fly 10 (hover) and, unlike a typical summoned creature, has its own defenses and hit points (all defenses 34; hp 120).Minor Action: +27 vs. AC; 1d12 + 10 damage.Opportunity Attack: +27 vs. AC; 1d12 + 10 damage.[/code]All in the name of balance.</blockquote>
