D&D 3E/3.5 Catalog of 3.5 Creatures and their DR

[dravot]

I just went through the 3.5 MM and cataloged all of the creatures with DR and what that DR is. Here's the list. If I missed any, please let me know.

Something which I did not realize: Some creatures have multiple item DR with an OR (Cold Iron OR Good). A weapon with either trait will ignore DR.

Other creatures have multiple DR with an AND (Cold Iron AND Good). A weapon needs to have both traits to ignore DR.

Looking over the list, a couple of things come to mind.

• Demons are DR Good and/or Cold Iron
• Devils are DR Good and/or Silver
• Golems are DR Adamantium and/or Bludgeoning
• Archons and Angels are DR Evil
• Eladrin are DR Cold Iron and/or Evil
• Guardinals are DR Silver and/or Evil
• Fey are DR Cold Iron
• Very few creatures are DR Law or Chaos
• Very few undead have DR
• Undead DR is less categorized: magic, silver, cold iron, bludgeoning
• Mummies are DR 5/-
• Elementals are 0/-, 5/- or 10/- depending on their size.
• Dragons are DR 0/Magic through 20/Magic depending on age category
• Lycanthropes are all DR 10/Silver
  

edit: added dragons to the list for analysis

Archons and Angels are Evil

Aren't they Lawful Good and Any Good, respectively?

 

[dravot]

Aren't they Lawful Good and Any Good, respectively?

I mean the requirement to beat DR, which is Evil

 

[Taren Seeker]

Don't Slaads or the lawful bug guys have DR any more?

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Was in a funny mood today.

 

[Kae'Yoss]

Some Slaads do (Grey and Death), but no Formians (not even the Queen).

Hey, with all that alignment based DR, neutrality got the shaft !

 

[Tellerve]

huh, so where is the benefit of having a lawfully aligned weapon, aka a monk's 11th level power? Obviously the lawful descriptor on a magical weapon gives it a +2d6 against chaotic things. But really that doesn't do much for the monk. At least in terms of monsters we have so far.

Hmmm...

...seeing as I have a Psychic Warrior in my current game, and that I'm using the "Psionics are different" option, I wonder if the "Metaphysical Weapon" powers can actually create weapons that can hurt a creature with a DR of x/magic?
