A few weeks ago I started GMing for the first time with an E6 Pathfinder game in a homebrew setting based on the Victorian Era, and things were going quite well until one of my players got too busy with University and had to drop out of the game. This puts me in the slightly awkward situation of having to rejigger my encounters for 2 players instead of the 3 players I used to have.
The player who dropped out was a Level 2 Bard/Gunslinger Diplomancer, leaving me with a Level 2 Oread Flowing Monk who tends to let his fists do the talking (I'm not worried about his effectiveness because its an E6 world and he is by far the most experienced player at the table), a Level 2 Elf Magus who considers himself "the bad boy of the society pages" (the player has very loosely based his character on Sterling Archer) and the Magus' monkey butler who is not designed for combat. So, in broad strokes, would 1/2 regular CR be about right for this party of 2 and their monkey butler? Also, does anyone have any fun encounter ideas for this party?
