Feb 15, 2023 at 20:45 comment added Xisnue @Mołot should I still use the newer 72 timeline if Markov rolled back the edit that caused 'invalidation' issues?
Feb 14, 2023 at 22:36 comment added Oblivious Sage @Pyrotechnical This sounds like feedback that should maybe be in an answer, rather than in comments.
Feb 14, 2023 at 18:27 comment added Xisnue @Pyrotechnical this monster is supposed to be the Goblin of goblinoids. For golems it is probably made out of the weakest material. But unlike other golems these could be made in bulk. Like your party in a wizard tower, fights a few dozen of these weaklings, then a Stone Golem turns the corner, and you adjust tactics for a boss/mini boss.

Feb 14, 2023 at 11:13 comment added Xisnue Some of those changes had nothing to do with posted answers, but a mistake I had made.
Feb 14, 2023 at 11:12 comment added doppelgreener @Xisnue It's from the original posting.
Feb 14, 2023 at 10:03 comment added Thomas Markov I’ve rolled this back to revision 7.

Rollback to Revision 7
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:44 comment added Mołot @Xisnue you should not make any edits that invalidate already posted answers, and if you did, you should rollback them, and then start the 72h timer.
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:20 comment added Xisnue I did try to address my changes in response to the full reply, and in the change log, should I time the 72 hours off the edit I did just now, or the original posting?
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:16 comment added Matthieu @Xisnue no worries, I know I have to fight myself not to rebalance my homebrews on their posts directly as well. It was more about the damage immunities/resistances, which were a point that was noted a few times in comments and answers. The whole point is to keep the problems to fix and their relevant solutions, for the sake of future readers. The addition of more lore-related details and correction of inaccurate averages seems fine to me though, since it shouldn't invalidate answers.
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:13 comment added Xisnue @Matthieu sorry about that, was just eager to implement. Plus the damage averages were WAY off, and it was bugging me.
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:03 comment added Matthieu Please refrain from changing the stat block for your homebrew on this post, as it invalidates the answers already made below. Instead, if you feel like your creation has changed enough that it's worth evaluating again, post a new question linking to this one with the newer version and a quick explanation of what you changed and why. We ask for 72 hours between each iteration at the very least. You can find the whole guidelines for homebrew reviewing here.
Feb 14, 2023 at 9:01 comment added Xisnue @Pyrotechnical this was an immunity of the Palimpsest, as far as I know the only other construct made out of paper. Idk if that's a side effect from the original monster's lore, or if it's a sensible precaution to preserve the construct.
Feb 14, 2023 at 8:58 comment added Xisnue 1st thanks for the formatting edits, makes it much easier to read and share.

Added a fluff of text to describe its appearance and voice. Made a recommended clarification to its senses. Reduced average damage because it was too high for the dice and modifiers. Changed nonmagical slashing immunity to resistance to reflect its nemesis.

Feb 13, 2023 at 21:02 comment added Xisnue @Someone_Evil I wish there was a easy way to answer that. I'm running homebrew that has changed how levels work, but I am confident they can handle a hord of CR 5 creatures without much issue.

Feb 13, 2023 at 20:55 comment added Xisnue @TheLittlePeace the Palimpsest, and golems share that immunity, but I suppose it could be fun to add a nod to that.

Feb 13, 2023 at 20:03 comment added TheLittlePeace I was thinking the same for slashing damage... Scissors beats paper, after all.

Feb 13, 2023 at 19:53 comment added Pyrotechnical Is there a reason you've opted to make this golem immune to fire damage? Thematically, it seems like that should be a vulnerability.
