4In this video I go through how I like to customize existing monsters for D&D 5e. Namely, modifying an existing monster to use in your campaign to match the level your players are currently at.
Important tools: the Encounter Balance Table (DMG pg 82) and the Monster Creation guidelines (starting on DMG pg 273).
