But the point value of a monster is a much less useful gauge of its abilities than, well, actually
looking at its abilities.
The question 'How does a 250-point monster match up against 4 150-point characters?' is essentially unanswerable and meaningless. Too much depends on what those points were spent on, situation, terrain, goals and uncounted other factors.
It's much more useful to look at the monsters relevant combat statistics and compare those to the PCs.
