Well I understand that. I only used Worgs in this example because it was the first CR 2 that came to mind when I was writing the question. I just wanted to make sure I had the mechanics down so I wasn't undercutting or over indulging my players

Ok, thank you very much for the clarification. It seems that a lot of confusion would be cleared up if the side bar said "Average Encounter Level" instead "Average Party Level"

So in the second example I gave of two CR2's and a CR 1, I would count that as a cr 5 encounter and give them a 2300g pot to roll treasure off of?

I've always been a bit confused by PF's random treasure generator, having been so used to 3.5's within the DMG and then the MIC. I bought the Ultimate Equipment book because I looked to elevate that issue but I am still confused on the "treasure per encounter" table (on page 360 in Ultimate Equipment) and what they exactly mean.

Let's say that the average party is level 2. They have fast XP and thus fast gold. It says that they get 800 gold per encounter. Now does that mean if they fight a single Worg (CR 2) that they get 800g? Do they get 800g if they fight 2 or 3 worgs or do they get more? Should I take the APL on the side as what the CR of the encounter is? 2 CR2's are considered a CR 4 so does that mean they should get a cr 4 gold list of 1700g or should they get 1600g instead? (Two groups of 800 for two CR 2s)

What if I mix the encounter up with many variety of CR's? Do I add them together for one big loot, do it based off a single encounters worth of gold, or should I do each individually?

Same deal with party of level 2s. Let's say they fight 2 CR2s and a CR 1. By Pathfinders experience point table (Pg 398 of PHB) that is a CR 5 encounter. For the loot do they get a.) 800 gold (a single encounters worth at level 2) b.) 2300g (the wealth a CR 5 party gets per encounter) or 2000g (two 800g CR 2 pots and a 400g pot for a level 1 encounter)

I need clarification because I don't want to roll of MIC tables forever.
