[QUOTE="delericho, post: 7333268, member: 22424"] As with most of these things, the issue is stacking. Possibly in the case of the RoP, the thing to do is have it not combine with armour (or possibly magical armour). I do like keeping the save bonus in all cases, though, so it still retains some utility. Yeah, that's the sort of choice that is a good thing - two attractive options with no obvious right answer. I'm still tempted to drop the +1 entirely - you get the same effect with [i]splint mail of fire resistance[/i]. But YMMV on that one. Yep, this is exactly the sort of thing I'd like to see. ... One thing you do have to watch out for, though, is that the players are likely to hit on the idea that they can have the best of both worlds - if they can have full plate or they can have chainmail +1 of fire resistance, why can't they have [i]full plate +1 of fire resistance[/i]? At which point they're quite likely to start badgering you to include that in the game or, perhaps more likely, seek to craft it on their own. There are ways to deal with that, of course, so it's not a huge issue... just something to bear in mind. Better to have your answers all lined up before the question gets asked. :) [/QUOTE]
