I know there is a general rule for bumping things up a CR if I have, let's say, 5-6 players. However, due to location and timing, tomorrow I will only have two out of the four players for tomorrows night of gaming. One of which who has only GMd (so he says)and one is an excited and enthusiastic new-to-RPG's guy.

My question is: is there a super easy/quick way to adjust the encounters and monsters so we can all still get the full scope of the story instead of "OK..it says two wolves so I will just put 1 in" or "I will just half the hit points". Any advice would be great and thanks ahead of time!

I am just want to give them the best experience possible.

You guys are the best.

So here are my base stats... (no I can't change them as I am currently playing with them)

Str-17/Con-12/Dex-16/Int-14/Wis-6/Char-12

So I am planning my feats. My guy is a clobbering mercenary (if that matters). His play style it hit first, as many and often as possible, and keep going till Orc Ferocity kicks in. I need help filling in the blanks.

Oh, and he has +7 to intimidate at level 2 already.

1. Power Attack/Cleave
2. Shattering Strike/Cleaving Finish
3. Weapon Focus (+1 AB with weapon)
4. Greater Cleave OR Weapon Specialization (+2 dam)
5. Furious Focus (ignore -1 power attack mod on 1st strike)
6. Vital strike (x2 dam on single attack)
7. Greater Cleaving Finish (use Cleaving Finish whenever)
8. Greater Weapon Focus (+1 ab (stacks with weapon focus)
9. Critical Focus (+4 to attack rolls to confirm critical)
10. ?
11. OR Dreadful Carnage (free intimidate when foe to 0)
12. Penetrating Strike (ignore 5 dam red)
13. Improved Vital Strike (x3 dam)
14. Greater Weapon Specialization (+2 dam. (stacks)
15. ?
16. Greater Vital Strike (x4 dam))
17. Greater Penetrating Strike (ignore 10 dam red)
18. ?
19. ?
20. ?

Possibly IMPROVED REPOSITION somewhere so I can grab guys and set them
where I want them for cleave positioning? Let me know! Thanks brothers
