The Potent template is a weaker version of the paragon template. While the paragon template is designed to create a single truly exceptional individual creature, the potent template is designed to create a vastly more potent version of a class of creatures. As a result, there is more flexibility in the potent template than the paragon template, mainly in the ability to customize the abilities of the creature. At the same time, the potent template is simpler and less powerful than the paragon template. | The Potent template is a weaker version of the paragon template.

A word on ability points: The potent template allows you to add 55 to the base array of the monster. This is not 55 more points to buy higher abilities off the standard purchase chart, this is 55 more stat points. If the creature has a 15 Strength, you can add none to it, or 1 to it, or up to 18 to it, giving the potent creature a 33 strength. You then recalculate its to hit and damage with the new bonuses for exceptional strength, added to the bonuses | A word on ability points: The potent template allows you to add 55 to the base array of the monster.
