==== Exception(s) ====
=== Group Bonuses ===
The enemies in one specific encounter, the goblin raiding party at the [[Druid Grove]] gate, are exempt from buffs. The goblins, led by [[Za'Krug]], and the [[bugbear]] are missing the passive bonuses that are found elsewhere on otherwise identical creatures on Tactician.
Some subsets of enemies within a race get bonuses applied to multiple individuals within a group. For example, all githyanki NPC's who wield a crossbow in [[Act 1]] can expect to get the same Tactician bonuses. These apply in addition to any other racial or individual bonuses.
