[QUOTE="Big Mac, post: 4248691, member: 61182"] I am happy with 2d8 acid damage. We just need to agree on the actual text of the Acid ability. Should a Platinum Silatic's pseudopods be constantly coated with acid, or should they follow the same sort of pattern as the metal digesting fluids? The original write up seems to suggest they are constantly coated with acid. These look like they are OK, but I'd like to be able to make this sort of guess in the future. (I probably would have guessed and used the HD of the three silatics - DR6 for the Iron, DR9 for the Gold and DR10 for the Platinum.) I'm assuming the Iron's DR would need to go between the other two silatic's DRs, but be closer to the Platinum. Would you go for DR9 or DR8? I couldn't find any sort of guidelines for this in the [URL=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=155051]Monster Conversion Notes[/URL] thread. Is there some sort of rule for assigning DR? EDIT: Typo alert - the following typo has slipped into the text of both silatics: [INDENT]"Silatics may form a pair (or more, depending on type) of long, thin pseudopods that can strettch up to fifty feet."[/INDENT] The word "strettch" should be "stretch". Looks like you have a sticky "t" key on your keyboard. (I think I actually prefer stretch as a longer word - it's kind of poetic with extra letters in it. :D ) [/QUOTE]
