Sorry for interrupting this quiet thread. Delete my post if has nothing to do with it. I read it already 10 times, so now I just ask one dumb question : Does the list mean that the monsters will be changed to match the clvls or should we suggest the changes to match them?
I mean if Abandoned Farm is allowed for lvls 20-25 then something must be wrong with my monk lvl 25 with AC=56 because I get killed by a party of 2 Taros and an Archer. And the Sekines (?) at Crop Storage House at lvl 20-25 is a joke, they kill me on an instant with a few death blows.
East Road 20-25 no way with the archers and IGMS mages, at least for a mele.
Strange Tower is a bit to tough at lvl 11 without high AC (~40) and the magic dmg Creatures in dungeon also seem tough.

I agree with LordFlash that the AB should be reduced a lot because without all the dmg reductions and immunities it's hard for an average AC character.

BTW it seems for me the magic dmg is a problem. Is there some kind of magic resistance?

Sorry for the slow reply, I've been busy updating monsters. It means both that monsters will be changed to match these lvl suggestions, and that if you have specific problems, please report them to help bring the monsters in line with that goal. The level suggestions are for a party of 3-5, please factor that consideration into any suggestions you make. And yes, there are items that give magic damage resistance, but they are rare.

Thanks,
Funky
