But:1)Compare AC to DEF of PCs and damage that is dealt with both attacks.Flameskull (24 lvl Artillery):+28 vs. REF; 2d8+10 dmg and the target is dazed until end of next monster turn.Highest (36) - 8 on dieMedium (33) - 5 on dieLowest (29) - 2 on dieFell Wyvern (24 lvl Skirmisher):+29 vs. AC; 2d8+10 dmg or 2d6+10 dmg and knock target pronePlate (without shield) (40) - 11 on dieHide (without shield) (37) - 8 on dieEDIT: There is also Raksasha Dread Knight on 24 lvl (Soldier)+29 vs. AC; 1d8 + 7 damage (Rakshasa makes two attack rolls) and she can make 3 attacks if two hit the same target he is dazed (save ends)Plate (without shield) (40) - 11 on dieHide (without shield) (37) - 8 on dieWhen you campare Flameskull attack to Wyvern attack you can see that they are the same but Flameskull gives also an effect! My question is:Why attacks that give the same amount of damage + effects are fine to you? You can easily see that the gap is too huge to simply say "this what it suppose to be!". Monsters that hit AC are so... useless, becouse they hit chance is lower and they do the same amount of damage. If hitting on 2-5 was what 4E designers have in they minds, why they did AC targeting of monsters attacks on Epic tier? They should just do all attacks target NADs or scall AC the same as NADs. The fact they didn't... Bingo. They just forget about NADs and then PHB2 comes out and we have defense feats to fix this issue.Even if you will still be saying that this is what it suppose to be (you must just don't see the obvious facts in this thread if so):2)Why we have PHB2 feats? they are too good! +6 to NADs on Epic? Man. It's huge! So:a) Feats are brokenb) They fix the math in very bad wayIf I haven't seen the Adventurer's Vault masterwork armors fix I can say maybe a) is true. But when they fixed something that was already good (compared to NADs attacks) the obvious thing is that only b) can be correct.</blockquote>
