I have a 4 player party that will be level 7, intended level of this boss is 10. I have a fighter, gunslinger, magus, and monk.

I haven't been able to find a witch npc, so I created it using pc rules as the gmg suggests. He has an ac of 28 and 118 hp.

Does this seem too low? My fighter could crit and potentially take him halfway down in one hit.

Also, does anything on the spell list or feats/actions seem too strong?

Does the GMG really say you should use the PC rules for this? I thought it said you should almost always use the standard creature rules, and that's what APs etc. seem to do. "You can build NPCs just like you would any other creatures. If an NPC should work like they have a class, use the class features and feats of a suitable class to pick abilities, and look at both the class’s proficiencies and ability modifiers to determine how strong the NPC’s statistics should be" from Designing NPCs

Ok, so I just pulled out my GMG and found the creature creation rules while I was flipping through to recheck what I'd seen before. Looks like I ran right by what I actually needed. I guess I need to rebuild this guy.
