[QUOTE="CreamCloud0, post: 9366844, member: 7034710"] it's not just about bypassing the resistance, it's about customisation with additional properties, especially in the areas that combat lacks for martial players 'i move, i swing my sword, i end my turn', battleaxe's with thrown, a finesse halberd, being able to raise your AC with a parrying shortsword. it'd also be a very nice gold sink for the players, even for most casters if you do it right, mage armour is fine but if you can buy a set of leather armour that lets you use the Evasion ability that's a whole lot more attractive to those squishies. edit: and making energy damage weapons far easier to aquire, (how did i forget to mention these) dealing energy damage is [I]way too exclusive[/I] to magic characters, all martials should end up tricked out each with their own collection of maybe an ice longsword, an acid longbow, a thunder warhammer and a psychic quarterstaff that they bought before the game is over, ready for every monster weakness/resistance situation.
