Stone Camouflage. The giant has advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide in rocky terrain.
Actions
Multiattack. The giant makes two greatclub attacks.
Greatclub. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 19 (3d8 + 6) bludgeoning damage.
Rock. Ranged Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, range 60/240 ft., one target. Hit: 28 (4d10 + 6) bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature, it must succeed on a DC 17 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Reactions
Rock Catching. If a rock or similar object is hurled at the giant, the giant can, with a successful DC 10 Dexterity saving throw, catch the missile and take no bludgeoning damage from it.
The old men of stone.
The massive athletics score is nice.
The high DEX (for a Huge creature) is also noteworthy.
Well, they're described as natural athletes and the closest a giant can get to being graceful. It's little bits like that which make this more than a generic "20-foot-tall viking" style of Giant
I
He would be way too hard of a boss for a level one and two
this one looks mad
2 players? One is lvl 2 and another one is lvl 1?
You know how CR works right? This dude will annihillate a party of 2 rookie adventurers, lol.
I forgot that comment was there was I really that stupid
It would be super great!!! If the rest of the adventure is taking place in the afterlife ;P
Lmao
no. nooooooooooooo.
Wait, is he MADE of stone?
about to throw a few of these at a lvl 3 party. they are the knights of ni. yes they want a shrubbery.
No.
How would 4ish level 4s do against one of these?
I love giants. Usually if my party is on the stronger side I'll give the giants (or one of the giants if there is multiple) an additional ability:
The flavor text under Dreamers under Sky. has a part that talks about the stone giants attacking trespassers with "showers of splintered stone" and I think this ability can really add that into a fight. Plus it reminds me of the Attack on Titan giant that breaks up boulders and demolishes entire neighborhoods with a fistful of shrapnel. It's a lot of fun.
A standard group of 4ish Level 4s will struggle and most likely lose to this thing. On the flipside, level 5 players are significantly stronger then level 4 players and could handle this guy easily. Maybe whenever you bump them to level 5 have them go against a stone giant and a pet cave bear, that would be a good fight.
Six lvl three’s makes it a hard encounter according the “Encounter Builder.” But lose one of them in the fight it becomes deadly.
So two a one and a two going against this guy; they’d have to be OP as hell. Even then your really leaning hard into a TPK.
Totally kinda looks like dwain the rock
I was in a party of 4 lvl 4 characters against one of these, and we kinda demolished him. Wizard, warlock, cleric and rogue. Although the rogue did do 2 pretty juicy crits. None of us were knocked down though
