I have a question regarding how DR works when dealing with subdual damage.
Can I please get rulings on the
Situation 1: Fred the Fighter smacks a Random Evil Creature (tm) with DR 10/+1. Since Bob is striking with his bare fists, this is subdual damage. Does the creature shrug off the damage, or take the subdual?
Situation 2: Mark the Monk smacks the same Random Evil Creature (DR 10/+1) with his fists, choosing to deal subdual damage. However, since Mark is so good as a monk, he is high level and has Ki Strike +1. What happens now?
This subdual damage vs. DR issue came up in a game of mine a few months ago, and I was totally clueless about how to deal with it. (For lack of a better idea, I halved the subdual damage.) Any answers?
