Talk:Paladin (5e Creature)
From D&D Wiki
Calculating CR[edit]
- Hit points: 52 hp (CR 1/2)
- AC is 20 (+1 from the parry ability) This is a difference of 4 from the expected AC. We adjust the DCR up by (8÷2) = 4 (CR 4)
- Defensive Challenge Rating: (CR 4 1/2)
- Best average damage for one round is 32 (two warhammer attacks plus Divine Smite). We factor that in by taking the average over three rounds. (32 + 32 + 32) ÷ 3 = (32). This gives us an OCR of 4 and an expected attack bonus of +5.
- The actual attack bonus is +5.
- Offensive Challenge Rating: (CR 4)
- Final CR is (4.5 + 4)÷2 = 4.25 so we can say (CR 4)
Spells cast before combat[edit]
Bless, Magic Weapon and Heroism all require concentration, and as such wont all benefit the Paladin at the same time.
