To do that we have to change "something" and in doing so we completely alter the xp measurement to which we rely to have a grasp if we are gonna screw the characters or bore them to death.Another thing is that Fantasy Grounds takes a toll. I am not sitting in a table with a Shield Master screen. If the players attacks the bad guy and defeat him I can't  "hide" from them since the computer will show them the creature is gone. Also I can't fake a miss because they will see that the creature attack landed.So, within FG I have to reshape each monster, I know how to that, just not as fast and streamlined that would make sense to do it.First I have to use one of the links I posted in the op to create the monster stat block, but since that wont give me the xp value of that new monster, than I have to run it through the first app link I posted on OP to figure out how much xp it is worth. Only after that, I can take the info into FG. That is madness. to do that for an encounter with 6 creatures would take me 1-2 hours. No way I am gonna do that for every encounter in every official adventure.Now take the 4e method and just scale it with arrows up and down and I would be able to do it in 10 minutes.Anyway, the Angry GM method was kind of what I always did eyeballing. His work is solid, and he actually took the time and effort to create a table out of it and explain things in a clear way. It's no small job.What I am inclined to do, is either create all the encounters myself (a shame because if it's an official adventure I would want to play it as close to the "official" part as I could), or I will end up tweaking the monsters direct inside FG to the best of my knowledge and hope for the best ( Probably will go with that). Now think for a moment how much of failure is this design concept from a marketing point of view. I really can't think this was carefully thought. The Angry GM method is so logic I can even see the app letting me click arrows up and down to make any encounter as I wish.</blockquote>
