Either I'm not calculating my damage per round correctly or I just really haven't made these baddies as powerful (or I've made them more powerful?) than I thought. I've got a baddie I brewed up that is basically a reskinned archdruid with vampire traits on it for a one shot I've had kicking around in my head for a while. When I checked it against the DPR and such things, it came out as a CR 6 when the archdruid should be 16.
Honestly, CR calculation rules in the DMG are really hard for me because of math.
Anyone know of a good tool online to help with the calculation part of it? Or a good cheat sheet to make it easy? Especially the DPR calculation. (Struggling with that especially on the dragons I brewed up for my version of the chroma conclave from critical role.)

I use this site, it's pretty good, but you have to figure out your DPR with a calculator still, CR_Calculator.
