ok for a gold adult dragon the CR is 16. here’s the question: What’s the CR of a adult gold dragon with only
10 4th level spells (doesn’t madder which)
without fear
they can only use there breath weapon 1's every 8 rounds,
and no spell like abilities.
?

The Adult Gold Dragon is CR 16 not 18.

10 4th level spells (doesn’t madder which)

That's an improvement since he can't cast 4th level spells normally.

without fear
they can only use there breath weapon 1's every 8 rounds,
and no spell like abilities.


These are only minor drawbacks. The breath weapon every 8 rounds is annoying but doesn't cripple the dragon that much.

I would say CR 16 or 17.

No ECl as far as I am aware of - wotc generally avoids giving LAs on creatures if this would result in an ECL > 20.
