Message: <blockquote data-quote="Qwillion" data-source="post: 2459901" data-attributes="member: 14641">Scaled Owlbear (no Not That Kind Of Scales)ROOM A100The scaling for room A100 says "To increase the challenge of the encounter, increase the fiendish owlbear's HD to 8."Doing that affects hp, base attack, grapple, attack, full attack,  DR, SR, energy resistances, saves, one ability point (if you award them every 4 HD, if you do that can change other stuff), one feat which can change other stuff, and it effects CR (by two becase it effects the template as well as just advancement) Now doing all this on the fly and being 100% accurate is beyond me so I took the time to write it up this evening.   I took some liberties and changed the feat selection to be more challenging in combat and I made the skills more useful for the owlbear to track down food in the dungeon.  I also awarded the owlbear a stat point upon gaining monster level 8, putting it in strength. I hope this will make it more useful for for DM's whose PC's come back through region A and did not fight the Owlbear, for those DM's who are Bastiches use a pair or a pack of these.
