[QUOTE="Nebulous, post: 4447596, member: 31465"] I would probably keep it 5-6, but roll separately. More bookkeeping though. Well, i agree, but in the case of the zombies, that can be four attacks on someone using one action. But that all depends on positioning and luck. I really don't think Maw is too powerful for a group of five 2nd level characters. In fact, without the minions he would be TOAST. It really depends on how the Fear works, if he can paralyze someone enough for zombies to grab and grind them, etc. The object of the fight is to make it as frightening as the original battle with the inquisitor, when it was just a solo monster back in 2e. He scared the absolute bejeezus out of the players. I agree! I've noticed that the 4e monster manual really, really shies away from a "laundry list of powers." That was a design goal, one i don't necessarily like though. Nor do i like the lack of descriptive text in the entires, but that's a complaint for another thread. Thanks for the input. [/QUOTE]
