So in the Denebrum section of Occult Realms, there are several mentions of Neothelids and Neothelid Overlords with class levels. Now by my understanding, a monster’s CR generally goes up by 1 for each class level added to it, so would that make something like Premblikang—a Neothelid Overlord with 16 Cleric levels—have a CR of 36? That seems absurdly high, the only other thing that kind of a CR is the Oinodaemon. I’d really like some clarification on this, because even 1/2 CR each level for a total of 28 still seems unusually high. Another thing, the scale on the Denebrum map seems way off; Ilvarandin is about the same width as Denebrum on the Darklands map, but Ilvarandin’s 80mile scale is longer than Denebrum’s 200mile scale. No offence to the author or Paizo—maybe I’m missing something—but it makes me think the person who wrote that part of the book had no idea what they were doing.
