realism vs challenge: help!
In my Corruption campaign? Out, now.
Right, long story short, I need a way to make challenge encounters for my level 18 players. I've got plenty sorted out but basically I need a way to hyper Human Bandits and their troll/ogre pets so that they'll by EL 16-20, basically.

Give the humans 16-20 class levels? There's not much we can suggest fluff-wise without knowing more about the campaign itself.

Level 1 Human Rogue (bandit) + Paragon template = CR 19
Ogre + Psedonatural template= CR 21
Both templates are in the Epic HandbookA silent knight is better than a holey knight.

Re: realism vs challenge: help!
It kinda stretches the limits of believability to have tons of Paragon creatures running around unless you're in the Plane of Paragonity. Aren't they supposed to be unique?

Re: realism vs challenge: help!
At level 18, reality must step aside a little bit. Characters as powerful as that shouldn't have any problems with bandits. Though maby the bandits really some mage's summoned demons, or a greedy dragon looking for loot?
Look at this: Economy
But replace numbers with power. CR 18 encounter's loot have huge gp values. So much that they could be living la dolce vita wihout having to mug random heroes.Yay!
