I like the idea of 3.5 material reduction, but I also liked the idea that better magic weapons cut through better protections.
So I was thinking that maybe somebody has come up with a way to solve this conundrum.
I was thinking for example: a +2 weapon reduces 5 from the damage reduction of cold iron and silver, while a +3 weapon reduces 5 from the DR of adamantine. Increasing the + of the weapon over these thresholod value reduces by an additional 5 the dr rating.
For example:
DR 15/silver v/s +2 -----> DR 10/Silver
or
DR 15/cold Iron v/s +3 -----> DR 5/Cold Iron
or
DR 15/Adamantine v/s +5 --------> DR 0/Adamantine
Opinions? unbalancing?
I just don't like 3.5 proliferation of acid/fire/cold/lightning/keen +1 weapons. Used to be that special abilities were like...special.
Edit Post: corrected the example, thanx.
