rant Half-Celestials

First Post
Is it just me or does a half-celestial seem way over powered for a cr 1, and if you think about it, the much weeker plane touched version is a frickin cr 1. I haven't looked into the power of spells compairing the half celestials with half fiends but half fiends are cr 2 and the only thing they have one up on the half celestials, is fire res 20. So I kicked half celestials down fire res 10 and made them cr 2. What do you guys think?

No, the planetouched has an ECL 1. ECL != CR. The half-celestial template has a CR modifier of +1, but it has an ECL of +3 (Soldarin) or +5 (Dragon Magazine). So, the CR of planetouched is probably 1/4 or 1/3.

In regards to the low CR of the half-celestial, I think it would work better as one of those templates that has a scaling CR modifier based upon the Hit Die of the creature it is applied to, like the Paragon template.
 

Ok, well, where is this soldarin's stuff at anyway. I here alot of people talk about it but I don't know what it is, I am assuming it is a web site, mind listing the url

[Ghaa!] That's horrible! I seriously spent several minutes scrolling back and forth trying to figure out what the heck was going on. [Grumble.] Stupid echoes. I really should actually get some sleep on weekends...
