When the player enters the area, it scales the creatures in the area to the player's level and to the values in this 2DA.

When the player enters the area, it scales the creatures in the area to the player's level and to the values in this 2DA. If you set a max level of 5, and you bring in a level 8 party, the game will scale to a level 5 party. The creature's rank is just another scale it uses after it levels the creature to your level.

To tell the game to use the values in this table for an area, you have to set the area's AREA_ID variable to the appropriate ID from this table.
