[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 6391827, member: 15700"] So what if it's AC is 9. Seriously folks, there is a A LOT more to monsters than base stats. This isn't directed at only you, because I see people doing this all the time. It's like you (general you) only look at AC and damage per round and then leap to some conclusion about the monster without actually seeing the monster in actual play. That's why your last sentence seems so ironic to me. You're flat out saying you don't care about the numbers and you care about actual play, but your entire gripe is based on #s you see and not actual play :confused: The GM is a giant blob, so it makes sense it's easy to hit. However, it's got a ton of HP for a CR2 creature, and locks people around it down, allowing it to munch and crunch. It is not a weak creature because it's AC is so low. You absolutely [I][B]have [/B][/I]to take everything about the monster into the right context, or you're (again, general you) just being lazy and doing your argument a huge disservice. [/QUOTE]
