So, I was looking for some easy(ish) methods to boost the SR on a creature.
As the DM, I can always just hand wave an increase, but I prefer to follow RAW methods where I can.
I've done some searching, but the methods I've found are less than ideal (Boosting Spell Resistance (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?122435) for instance).
If it helps, the creature in question is a Ghirrash (outsider, 7 HD, SR 14).
Awaken Spell Resistance feat won't work because it's not a dragon (unless I slap the half-dragon template on it?)
Boost Spell Resistance feat gives +2 (if the creature is evil). One of the better options, but I'm hoping to poush higher than +2.
Exalted Spell Resistance feat gives +4 SR, but only against evil spells and such; also not applicable for a villain.
Daazzix's Vest (item) increases innate SR by +5, but a 25,000gp item would be utter overkill for this encounter
...is there any templates that would help? Preferably without driving CR up through the roof.
Cheers - T
