UK, do you think a Great Wyrm White Dragon is ECL 47/CR 31?
I'm trying to tweak my system a bit, and that's the number I came up with after the tweaking. The one thing that seems to sway things the most is the integrated class level modifier . . .
At first, I think that CR 31 is giving the thing way too much credit, but after careful consideration, I think a Great Wyrm White Dragon played CORRECTLY may well be CR 31. I would, however, raise the SR of all dragons, however. Maybe a function of ECL or CR?
I saw the other debate about CR and SR, and I'm starting to think that maybe SR SHOULD be based on CR and not ECL or class levels, mainly because the way the gains get so slim at later levels to where you need to gain 8 or 16 or even 32 levels per CR. With gains like that, SR is simply worthless at higher levels, to the point where it doesn't make any difference whatsoever, and to where it shouldn't even be considered in ECL. If that is done, however, it is no longer possible to determine the ECL of SR, as it is determined AFTER CR is calculated as opposed to before. Maybe that would be for the best, however. What do you think?
