However, I do acknowledge that some people don't like to use their MMs during gameplay and prefer to use stat blocks... then it's a lot of work (but that's only by choice, not necessity). In the end, it's the ELs of all the encounters that are important. Once you go through the entire adventure and get a handle on that, then you go back and do the actual stats.It's taken me no time at all in blazing through all my Dungeon Magazines (from #1 to #49 so far - I'll be up to #81 in a jiffy).For the GDQ series, I upped it to begin at around Level 13 or 14 characters, and continue up from there. There was a bit of a level hiccup in the beginning of the "D" sections (such as the Shrine of the Kuo-Toa), but I simply gave them all class levels (and used some of the nifty PrCs found in the FR Underdark book, like the Kuo-Toa Whip kind of stuff). That was where most of my work occured.As others have said, by the time you get to "Q", you can use a beefed up Aspect of Lolth or you could use an avatar of Lolth (I used avatar).</blockquote>
