[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7854304, member: 6801845"] People are entitled to their opinion. As much as I understand what you are trying to do, I don't see how it has much relevance. Take orcs for example. Without going into detailed analysis ('cuz I don't care) the one time they were anything other than run-of-the-mill humanoid monsters that were not particularly a threat was when 3E came out. They could do scary amounts of damage with a crit, something they fixed with 3.5. But other than that? Their role in the game hasn't really changed all that much, most monsters haven't. There are some exceptions. Dragons are scarier than I remember them in 1E. But systems are so different that I don't see a lot of relevance. Even if there were, what does it matter? Let's say 1E orcs were twice the threat as they are in 5E. To give a similar threat in 5E I'll just throw 2 orcs. The DM still controls the threat level. [/QUOTE]
