Quick bugbear question

[Calmar]

Hi!

What are Ability Score adjustments of the bugbear now? In 3.5 they were +4 Strength, +2 Dexterity, +2 Constitution, –2 Charisma.

The ability scores of the sample Pathfinder bugbear however are Str 16, Dex 13, Con 13, Int 10, Wis 10, Cha 9; does that mean it now has +6 Strength, +2 Dexterity, +2 Constitution, –2 Charisma?

Thanks.

That is correct.

Thanks, Whale Cancer! :)

Seems pretty gross for stats. Guess it will never be a legal PC build.

Also....Whale Cancer is a great handle.

No problem. As you seem to know, every monster with HD in the bestiary is built with a 11, 11, 11, 10, 10, 10 array. Subtract 1 from each uneven statistic a monster has and you can easily find their racial modifiers.

It has racial HD, which is why it isn't in the ARG (there is a version in the ARG playtest that doesn't match up with the bestiary bugbear). I wrote a savage species style monster class for the bugbear to make them playable.

People tend to either love it or hate it!
