Ok so I'm trying to do something really simple. First let me say I miss the way that 3.5 had these pre done in their monster's instead of making me utilize templates every time i want to use a different size creature.
All I want to do is create a huge sized spider.
Which takes the HD from 3 to 7, increasing its size by 2 lvls. So according to table 2-2 pg 296 of the bestiary going from medium to large gives it 8 str, then large to huge another 8 str. this means I add 16 str to it?!?! that seems like too much.
enlarge person only gives a +2 str, and the "Giant creature" template only gives +4 str.
The giant creature template doesn't work out because it only gives +1 CR where as under the spider entry in the bestiary (pg 258) each size gives a +2 CR
So how do i do this... does a huge spider really have 27 str and 20 con?
Edit: and what about its poison, i would think the DC (its potency) or effect would go up as well
