Mot: one problem with your second kimo... creatures only get 2 special attacks. other than that, one thing you have to realize is that everything is a trade-off.


because of how the system will work you may not get exactly what you want. for one thing, its gonna be hard to get a creature to come out how you want it even with the right DNA because there are so many variables, but also the resists and the special attacks come from the same place(DNA), so unless there is a creature with the exact right resists with your special attack at the level you are looking for, chances are you will end up compromising some resists one way or the other. as it is there is no way in the system to shift resistance points from one type to another, so to come out with high kinetic and energy resists and armor, the BE will have to find highly energy/kinetic resistant creatures with the attacks you want and almost all of them will have to be armored for the final creature to retain the armor - all around your target CL. it also seems that the two slots that accept the majority of special attacks are the health pool slot and the attack spd/dmg slot so these might have to be compromisedto fit the stats into the creature.


theres a little more to it that we know and still a wholewe just dont know yet, but go easy on your BE, his job isnt an easy one and it looks like under the new system it will be extremely hard tocreate a creature even close enough tofill any specific order.what you want to do is find creatures all around the level you want that have the traits you are looking for. giving your BE a shopping list will make his job a lot easier.
