Special Conversion Thread: Finishing off the fey

Fear aura? Creatures of fewer HD within 30 ft maybe become frightened?

 

[demiurge1138]

Not feeling the fear aura. I think unnatural presence is enough.

 

[freyar]

You think these have enough? I'm still not quite sure how to do the CR on them.

 

[Shade]

I'm thinking CR +1 or +2 in most cases, but maybe only +0 or +1 if the creature loses SLAs and/or spellcasting?

 

[freyar]

Let's do CR +1 with a note that certain cases with few SLAs are +2 and others with many SLAs are +0? Does the hoary hunter look strong enough now?

 

[Shade]

Updated.

I assessed the pixie as CR/LA unchanged, the nymph as +1, and the hoary hunter as unchanged. I'd imagine something like the redcap would warrant a +2

 

[freyar]

I'd have to give the pixie at least +1 CR actually. It's nearly untouchable, has better damage output, Su vs SLAs are kind of a wash, and it even has almost 4x the hp (albeit still a very low number). Or do you just think the regular pixie is over-CRed?

 

[Shade]

Hmmm...it's still got only a single HD, and while it is tough to hit, a single hit or two could destroy it. The loss of the sleep arrows is a bigger hit on them than the loss of SLAs.

I think CR 4 suffices.

 

[freyar]

Fair enough. Are these done, then?
