I'm looking at putting together a mid to high level dungeon for my group and was curious as to what method is most commonly used for improving monsters.
Specifically I'm going to have one level of my dungeon basically be overrun by wights. At CR3 they wouldn't even be a speed-bump for the group (of 3 as yet undetermined characters) at the level I'm planning to have them there (probably somewhere between 16-18 in order for them to be able to handle the "real" badguys of the level). I don't want them to be overly powerful either but enough so that given enough of them they can cause a decent headache. So what do you guys do? Just ad HD, give class levels (if that's even possible), bump up energy drain DC's, grant special abilities? I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks in advance.
