Inspired by frustrating conversation I had. For those curious, that was the statblock of Caine, father of the vampires.

Things I have learned in 4 decades of DMing:

  1. There is no encounter that cannot be cheesed by creative players

  2. Same creative players will also party wipe by doing stupid things like trying to run on lava

It's basically impossible to accurately scale encounters beyond astrology and good wishes. I've seen a party of 6th levels get wiped by seven starving goblins in a tower.
