Mmkay, with me running two campaigns, I've been compelled to make up a few monsters. I figured I'd post here the combat tested ones:


Elites:
Pie Golem
hp 50

Doe Quixote isn't really a 'supposed to win' fight, and hasn't been totally tested. The Casino Golem and Sea Pony Ninjas are the two monsters that have probably worked best... unless you count the chaos caused by sending MU Fish at the party en masse.

Z2's Monsters. Empty Re: Z2's Monsters.

Apparently somepony snatched one of my monsters just today, and set it on a party of four that included me. Doe Quixote became especially memorable after getting a villainous upgrade and the ability to target a random enemy with that minor... but still was handily defeated by virtue of
1. The party being absurdly awesome, and especially good at ruining solo monsters
2. The 'five attacks per round' trait being hobbled even more than expected by an excess of rolled '1's
