if you want recounting after a new Release be my Guest
my personal Fazit about these Numbers :
Ooze, Plant and Celestial are very under numbered and Humanoids have a very huch number.
What do you guys think of these Numbers? Would you want some more of some specific Typ?
Edit.: thanks for the correction not a typo it was a miss calculation i corrected it should be 228 not 230 at partnered content by Monstrosities my mistake.
Just an edit suggestion - you have Monstrosities that 386 Official, Partnered 230, total 614, which is two short. Given that all the others balance, I'm guessing there's a typo there somewhere?

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.
No, Humanoids would be the vast majority of encounters in "standard" campaigns.
Also depending on how you counted them, Humanoids may be many times larger than that as Bandit for example could be an Orc Bandit, Human Bandit, Goblin Bandit and so forth.
Oozes, Plants and Celestials would be vary rare in most campaigns, and if that's the case you wouldn't need a huge variety of them.
I have seen campaigns where there were worlds covered in Oozes, or where plant creatures were abundant, but it wouldn't be that common.
Actually, Oozes are the ones that stand out here. Celestials wouldn't usually be considered a "monster" as in something to fight so there wouldn't need to be very many.
It is interesting though, thank you for counting them up!

this is the place i counted them in, and yes most of the NPC have there own stat blocks there also if someone had a Legacy variant i also counted it so you not only have different variants of Bandit Species but also Leader or Worrier Variants who often have Legacy variants as well.
