I'm toying with making a new monster. One of the games i Dm has level 5 players who have been doing well against about level 8 challenge rating. Anything lower and they just decimate it in one round. I came up with a new idea for a monster to challenge them but i need some help fine tuning it. Here are the stats i had in mind.
Yuan ti maniac
Size medium
Hit points 1
Ac 15
speed 60
Str 14 Dex 20 Con 14 Wis 3 Int 3 Cha 3
Attack
Claws +4 to hit damage 1d4 +2
Features
When targeted by and attack it makes a Dexterity saving throw dc 12 on a success before the attack hits move up to it's full movement out of range of the attack.
Dash as a bonus action
I may also make an elite one with slightly higher hit points and ac.
