She moves like a lightning and before you even can comprehend what's happening, you're on the ground and she slowly cocks her revolver with a naughty word-eating grin. What ya gonna do?" feels like a normal thing for me and I can't see why the players can't do same things.That's because 3 is barely any DR, of course it doesn't make any significant difference. Like, 6 damage or 3 damage, who cares. Even DR5, on the other hand, is more significant, and something like DR10 is debilitating for a fighter and just annoying for a rogue.HAM is fine (and, honestly, very weak), but using DRs as a way to distinguish between different kinds of armour creates additional problems.</blockquote>
