What's the math for PC CR?


Rules Questions


I have a PC w/ the Fey Creature temp. She gains SR = 11 + CR. What is her SR? Does the CR Adj add to this? I cannot find anything in any book or online. My Perception (Search) Check Failed. :)

Templates aren't intended for use on PCs, so some of their rules don't really interact well with PCs. PCs don't have CRs, so that's one of them.

An NPC with heroic class levels has a CR equal to their total level - 1. That CR is increased by 1 if it has greater than NPC wealth by level (which PCs do) and by 1 if it has better stats than the elite array (which PCs probably do). So, the best strict estimation is level + 1.

However, the safest is probably just CR = level.

If I recall correctly her base CR would be character level + 1 (a level 1 PC is considered CR2). So her final SR would be level + 1 + CR adjustment.

Or what William Senn said.
