[QUOTE="Pielorinho, post: 72021, member: 259"] Well, obviously I can't show you exactly that. But a vampire commoner is CR3, has DR 15/+1, fast healing 5, the ability to dominate, the ability to INSTANTLY kill any first level PC hit (2 negative levels of damage with a hit), the ability to call 3d6 wolves to aid it, and so on. A brown bear has no DR or spell immunities, but is CR3, has 51 HP, does 38 points of damage/round if all attacks hit and can spread that damage out in 3 roughly equal packages (two of which are very likely to hit most first-level PCs), and can attack intelligently. If I were a first-level party , I'd much rather face the flesh golem than either of these opponents. As for wolfspider's text not acting as a warning to the DM, have you read the module? Or are you so confident that wolfspider's quote was the only information the module gave about the flesh golem that you can claim the module never warns the DM about teh encounter's scariness, all claims to the contrary notwithstanding? As long as you're nice to this new DM, though, and play like a good sport, accepting your lumps, I'd think no harm done. Daniel [/QUOTE]
