Monsters: Conversions? #13

In the conversion process from GW to TTRPG format, one method of "porting" monsters over would be finding a decent conversion equation.

Some creatures are just "simple," so a reskin is fine for those. More unique monsters will likely need more than a reskin however. Any unique part of a creature from Guild Wars that differs from a D&D monster should be reflected however.

Still, GW introduces tons of stats - stats that do not carry over well from GW to D&D. For those who are mathematical OR just like stuff like this, determining a baseline equation(s) would be incredibly useful! This will likely require a good deal of creature analysis to get a rounded approach (insert excel tables here), but would help with the brunt of the work.

Once we have an equation to use, it would simply require some extra touchups to fully create the creature.

Creature Stats.xlsx has been created to help show some features of weaknesses. Upon further look, the stats are not as useful as I had once thought. However, this does give us a bit more freedom to work with.
