There are at least 18 more CRs to cover, but I have to add more spells one by one and figure out the CR, with guidelines that don't work beyond a very few additions. If I wanted a CR10 Wizard, what do I do?All in all, the best I can think about is to just create a Wizard (or Cleric or Druid, depending on the story) using the PC rules (not caring much for precision, just a gross design), throw it at the PCs without caring about estimating the CR, and cross my fingers that with bounded accuracy it shouldn't be outrageously off...</blockquote>
