[QUOTE="AllisterH, post: 4865732, member: 51325"] Because people want to use appropriate level minions at various points in the character's life Perhaps you didn't notice in this thread that I as a DM make regular use of lower level foes? I thought we went over the fallacy that 4e *requires* equal level opponents. In fact, using widely differing level opponents in the same encounter is a really great feature of 4e and easily prevents the boring/grindness of combat that some people complain about. Is this one of those "The book says you HAVE to do this" but the book actually says "hey, try this method" arguments? ???? Again, unless you ONLY use foes of the same level EVERY single combat, this argument makes no sense. EDIT: What contradiction are you talking about BryonD (can anyone help me out here?) At low levels, I like the fact that kobolds aren't screwed to hit me just because somebody got lucky and has plate armour. At higher levels, I like the fact that kobolds no longer have as good a chance to hit me as they did at the earlier stage and NOT because I found plate armour. How am I contradicting myself here?
