I am building a My Realms adventure.  I use Adventure Tools to help select mobs.  The Ancient Tomb Mote seems to be incorrect:

AC 31; Fortitude 27, Reflex 29, Will 27

for a level 3 minion for 38 xp.  I'd like to use it but the defenses are impossible.  I did not see where to report this.

You have discovered what many of us know, the Compendium has errors.  To be accurate, you have to check the original source (complied version if Dragon or Dungeon).  In this case, it is Seekers of the Ashen Crown.

Ancient Tomb Motes, Level 3 Minions

AC 17, Fort 15, Reflex 17, Will 15

You can submit Monster Builder issues here. They are pretty good about fixing them. All the ones I raised have been fixed in the very next update, even when I reported the issues mid-month.

(Keith, all speed/defense ones you and I and Claire saw were all fixed in the last update.)

I talked to the WotC DDI guy at DDXP about maybe modifying their process so that rather than enter the monster stat blocks from the initial post of a Dragon or Dungeon article, then fix changes later, just delay and enter from the complied article at the end of the month, which almost always has the changes incorporated in it.  That would be more efficient work flow and fewer errors to correct.  He said he would take my suggestion back.
