Apr 12, 2016 5E Using DMG to calculate the CR of a modified BBEG.and it makes me cringe 5th Edition So I used the DMG walkthrough for calculating the CR of a modified monster (I think calling it a 'formula' would be too generous, it's very timey-wimey wibbly-wobbly). You never add your proficiency bonus twice. If a feature says to double or half your proficiency bonus, then you only ever do so once. There's an optional suggestion in Xanathar's which says that if a tool proficiency is also relevant to an ability check made with a skill (or the inverse) then the DM can grant advantage of they would like. Proficiency Bonus. Characters have a proficiency bonus determined by level. Monsters also have this bonus, which is incorporated in their stat blocks. The bonus is used in the rules on ability checks, saving throws, and attack rolls. Your proficiency bonus can't be added to.

Subraces and Variants
Subraces must be chosen for a race. Variants are considered optional. Currently Half-Elves, Humans, Orcs, and Tieflings have optional racial Variants. Other races that have no Subrace or Variant include Aarakocra, Bugbear, Centaur, Changeling, Dragonborn, Firbolg, Goblin, Goliath, Grung, Half-Orc, Hobgoblin, Kalashtar, Kenku, Kobold, Lizardfolk, Locathah, Loxodon, Minotaur, Orc, Simic Hybrid, Tabaxi, Tortle, Triton, Vedalken, Warforged, and Yuan-Ti Pureblood.
Ask
Always ask your DM first before picking a race, especially a non-standard race or subrace. Some races, a Loxodon as an example, require the character to come from a different world setting than the traditional Forgotten Realms.
Your DM may use House Rules regarding the Point Buy system. Adjust the numbers below to meet those rules.
