Monster types and examples

**Balor01** · 2012-04-22, 01:09 PM (ISO 8601)

So we could separate monsters into casters and brutes. Casters maybe into controllers and damage dealers ... Could we shape more monster categories? Which monsters would best represent mentioned categories?

thanks

What system?

Well, I am most familiar with 3.5 ed, but i guess any could provide this division. That is if anyone joins this debate

The question remains, why it would be worthwhile to spend some thoughts on this.

Well... there are as many monster types as system mechanics will allow for.

So... yeah. I don't see what you're trying to talk about if you don't have a particular system in mind.

AFAIK this is pretty much what 4e D&D has already done, I haven't really played it much so I can't say what effect this has in actual gameplay
