I've yet to have a problem with the "damage expressions" of any monster in mm1 or mm2, AND, I have 6 players in my game.  I find it not a big deal taking one or more of them to 0hp whenever I want in "big fights" and if they roll crappy, it's easy to whoop em in "fair fights".  I may be way off base, but I think the problem is not the monsters are underpowerd , it is that the players in some of the games in question are too powerful.  I think in most games players rest WAAAY too much, which makes them way over-powered.  If you fight the group of centaurs afore mentioned but your party has 40% fewer dailies, 33% fewer action points, fewer healing surges/heal powers suddenly your monsters look bad ass.I also see in a lot (not all) games of higher levels, the players have WAY too much magic, again, not the monster's fault.  Some games i've been in act like you can roll into any town, plop down your cash, and walk out with whatever magic item you find.  Like the local forge is cranking out +4 weapons like an assembly line.  It is RARE I let the players buy anything, they have to find it, or sometimes they can trade with npc's, but the local village's general store is always fresh outta magic</blockquote>
