[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 3360462, member: 326"] Hey James! :) Doesn't Eberron have a bunch of 30-40th-level Rakshasas; the 'Lords of Dust'? I disagree. The best case scenario would be to have one version of Demogorgon that made sense. Theres no valid reason why Demogorgon should have different stats when he shows up in Greyhawk to when he shows up in Mystara. I agree with you on this point, although I personally hate the ideas of demons with class levels. Just because its theoretically possible to be 500th-level doesn't mean Elminster has to be 500th-level. Lets just hope no Demon Prince has a dozen 10th-level Blackguard Marilith then...oh wait... ;) Yes it can. I already outlined how in Grim Tales. ;) Yes but if the CR 32 monster is only averaging about 50 damage a hit and the CR 100 monster is averaging 500 damage per hit, that 20th-level Party are going to last a heck of a lot longer and get far more chances trying to make that 1 in 20 chance against the CR 32 monster. Or, to imbibe of Return of the Jedi: [B]LANDO[/B] Yes! I said closer! Move as close as you can and engage those [S]Star Destroyers[/S] CR 32 monsters at point-blank range. [B]ACKBAR[/B] At that close range, we won't last long against those [S]Star Destroyers[/S] CR 32 monsters. [B]LANDO[/B] We'll last longer then we will against that [S]Death Star[/S] CR 100 monster...and we might just take a few of them with us. [/QUOTE]
