Sorry to ask this as I am sure it is in the RAW, but I don’t have any books around and I probably won’t until the next time I DM so wanted to get this cleared up.
So my players fought a Titan last weekend yes the one in the Age of Worms and I had a question about its DR (lawful/15). I know that DR does not reduce damage from spells but what about spells that act as weapons? Specifically the wizard was using Orb of Force (from the Complete Spell Compendium) which is a range touch attack with no spell resistance or save. Would the DR apply to this? I did not apply it during the fight as I did not want to take the time to check but I would like to find out before we play this weekend.
On another note does anyone else think Orb of Force is CRAZY good for a 4th level spell? It is basically 10d6 every round with no save no miss chance and no spell resistance and no way to reduce the damage.
Anyway… they ended up having to flee the fight as I played the encounter really tough and I think the wizard might be at the wrong end of a meter swarm if she starts the Orbs up again.
