I should note... monsters in the PFRPG are not "easy" or "fast" to create. I don't consider "easy" and "fast" to be selling points for creating gaming material. That role is and should be filled by things like the simple templates, or by the fact that a GM prepares for the game before play begins... having been a GM for decades, I've actually always believed that building the game is just as fun (and is often MORE fun) as it is to play the game.
The monster creation rules are detailed, and we show you everything under the hood so that folks can create monsters using the same guidelines we used, but we made no attempt to make the process super simple or fast. Logical and detailed were our goals.
Yes thank you! Soooooo glad that comprehensive monster creation rules are being provided.
Question: Do any of the flavor SLA's make it back into the Pathfinder Bestiary from the 3.0 MM? For instance, the Pit Fiend in 3.0 had Unhallow, which, although not useful in the middle of combat, had very interesting functions outside of combat, representing the fact that the Pit Fiend was a creature of pure evil, and could corrupt entire areas with a thought. Most of these were cut out from 3.5 sadly. It'd be great to have em back.
