Need some help with a ruling on this question which came up in our campaign.
Damage Reduction x/+y 'prevents' damage to a creature who does not possess either a +y or better weapon or else each hit's damage is reduced by x .
The question is on the +y part of the equation. Do you use only the +y bonus to hit, or do you use the 'total enhancement bonus'?
For example, a shortsword +1 Ki Strike. It's a +1 weapon. But, it counts as a +2 for magic purposes.
Which bonus do i use? Please find me the source in the pubs/faqs to help resolve this. There have been plenty of opinion'ing in our group already.
