Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off giants and their kin

[demiurge1138]

I'm alright with ignoring the smoke, but I like them giving off light and the water vulnerability.

On further thought, let's drop the smoke effects, since the original included it only as mentioning for keeping sunlight off of them, not for an actual combat benefit.

Updated.

Skills: 4 at 19 ranks
Fire giants have Climb, Craft (any one), Intimidate, Jump, Spot

Feats: 6
Fire giants have Cleave, Great Cleave, Improved Overrun, Improved Sunder, Iron Will, Power Attack

 

[demiurge1138]

Drop Improved Overrun, add Multiattack for the bite?

 

[Leopold]

I like multiattack. Is Iron Will valid? Are these things more int undead and resistant than any other feat?

 

[freyar]

There's no reason undead can't take Iron Will.

CR 11?

Firegaunts are about 12 feet tall and weigh about x pounds. (Fire giants weigh 7,000 pounds, but these are "gaunt" and partially composed of fire).

 

[freyar]

CR 11 is ok.

I also agree with making them lighter. 5000 lb? Or even down to 4000?

Updated.

Since we once again are dealing with undead without the ability to create spawn, we'll need to provide an explanation for their existence.

 

[freyar]

Fire giants that are frozen to death might spontaneously combust?

 

[Shade]

Good call.

Updated.

Time for the next one?
