But as most have done they reduce the max cap of CR of their minions (example your CR 27 and you could get single CR 26 minion, but you drop it by -6 so you can have only max CR 20 minions).<br/><br/>As you reduce your max CR, it doubles number of minions you can have per CR drop. This is kind first phase in minion creation.<br/><br/>So if we drop the max CR to 20, you get 64 minions of CR 20 value. If you had wanted 21 CR as max cap, then simply half the 64 so you can have 32 CR 21 minions and 16 minions when max cap is CR 22 and so on.<br/><br/>Now comes second part; if you 'sacrifice' one the max capped minions by lowering said minion CR by -1.....you get 5 weaker minions. So you could have 64 pit fiends. But you want some weaker minions do dirty job for you or have sheer numbers of them.<br/><br/>So you sacrifice one pit fiend from the 64 minions, leaving you 63 pit fiends (or any CR 20 critters) and you can get five CR 19 critters in addition to 63 what you have.<br/><br/>I know the minion acquirement sounds complex as math wise and english is not my first language but this is how it works.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Wait one lower CR = multiplier o FIVE!? I have just been doubling it. one sacrificed cr 23 slot = 2 cr 22 minions, or 4 cr 21 minions. I didn't realize it was cr 23 slot sacrificed = 5 cr 22, if we keep reducing do we then keep multiplying by 5 to get 25 cr 21 minions? 125 cr 20's? I thought i had the rminion system down (kunoichi even quited me on it) but it seems i dont.
