5 Classic D&D Monsters that need to be added

[kilagan800]

Devil Swine, Wearboar...I'm sure if they can make Vine Horrors out of Trolls, and Mudmen out of Clay Golems, they can manage to make one out of the other.

On that note, I wonder what SSG might be able to reskin the dinosaurs into someday? Drakes? There's a whole lot of Khorvaire that's just full of 'em that'd be great to see, too.

As for classic monsters I love and want to see added — I was really hoping to see a Kraken show up in Saltmarsh. Like Aelonwy said, there's a ton of undersea monsters left to see, I'll throw Marids on the pile too.

Flail Snail, Roper, and a bunch of the really ugly fiends like Manes, Lemures, Bone Devils (I can wear one's face, but where is the rest of him?), Ice Devils and Nalfeshnee are some of my favourites. I think the animation work required to do most of them justice means it'll be a long time if ever before I see Ol' Flaily in DDO.

Couatls are kind of a big deal in Eberron lore, it'd be cool to see one show up as an NPC.

I know, there's so much still that needs adding into the game. I was considering including the Chimera and Dragon Turtle. Maybe next time.

Some critters I would love to see in game (assuming they're not in already somewhere...)

Trapper
Gibbering Mouther
Lurker Above
Roper
Stirge (I had a low level character die from a swarm of these things once upon a time)
Xorn (next worse thing to a rust monster)
Intellect Devourer
Cloaker

Would really like to see Githyanki in the game. They would be a good fit for some extra-planar story plotlines..

Another boss nemesis I would love to see in DDO (along the lines of Vecna..) would be Tiamat.

[Aelonwy]

At least we have Otyughs and Displacer Beasts.

True. I am very pleased with how both turned out in being brought to the game.

Gibbering Mouther
Intellect Devourer
Cloaker

Can't believe I forgot these. The very first time our DM brought us to an Underdark adventure, we faced all three.

I have been playing DnD for more years than I care to admit and I've never heard of Devil Swine. Honestly, it looks more like something out of PoE or Diablo.

I've been playing nearly 50 years and never heard of them.


Out of the OP’s desires I only like to see the crawler and hydra

[Nugaot]

I cannot believe I forgot about the Terrasque!! If we make it to level 40 without encountering it at least once then what's the point of it all? A return to ToEE Raid against the 4 Princes of Elemental Evil would be sweet too.

Other late honourable mentions: Froghemoth, Axe Beak (would make an awesome mount!), Giant Toad, Centipede and Hornet, Grell, and the Nilbog.

Ankhegs. I've died many gruesome deaths to them, one time purposefully by the DM because he was annoyed with the character I rolled up.

I lost a couple characters to those
