Cuv, is Dasy still using my trial script or did you give him something else?
As far as Dasypus tactics go he doesn't seem to use his physical attacks or wing buffets enough against my mage types. In fact I would think that the mages are the ones he would target first. In all my battles they have been the only real threat to him.
Dasy uses simple "target nearest" for now. Fighters tend to be nearest more than mages.
The fighters are mostly distraction given the frequency at wich he uses defensive spells.
He's not that spell happy (at least, I didn't make him to be). Tell me... what would happen if he used
less defensive spells? Remember he can only cast a spell
or Wing Buffet once per round.
I'm also a bit suprised that he didn't use a death spell to get rid of the Mord's Swords. Admittedly they were not doing much, but still.
If they were not doing much, then why forego an opportunity to Wing Buffet by casting Death Spell?
the 20 mage fight you are working on. It is different & interesting, but having 20 of them?! And all able to use 6th & 7th level spells?
Well... after killing dozens of level 18+ mages, I'd think that the party shouldn't mind fighting a group of lower level mages. If you're having trouble with the mage fights, I suggest triple Chained Horrid Wiltings, True Sight and Inquisitor Dispel Magic. That usually gets them.
I am also of the opinion that given how early in ToB RTW takes place that parties may be underpowered level wise & item wise.
We'll be sure to give an indication of the difficulty. Whether the player goes in early or late is entirely up to themselves. Some people like a challenge, and I wouldn't want to deprive them of the opportunity.
if you tone things down it might make it too easy for the folks with the Wiemer mods (I can see how the Item Pack, Valen, Sola, etc. could really make RTW easier - sheesh just give my current party some of the items from the Item Pack & many of the fights would have been easier).
Uhm... I myself can't really be bothered to take into account what cheesy mods people are running. If they install some god item add-ons, it's their problem and responsibility if the game becomes too easy.
Return to Windspear shouldn't feed your party cheesy loot and break the rest of the game, at least.
Well, his racial enemy is Humanoid Paladins.
It is? He has Ranger levels now, does he?

Easy on the cheese, will ya? Just 'cause he hates paladins' guts doesn't mean het gets combat bonuses.
He also targets fighters and paladins more often than any other class.
Only because they get in his face.
