[QUOTE="Ancalagon, post: 9491813, member: 23"] See, I think there is a value to having... thresholds of power. Tiers, if you will. And this mechanism could be great at enforcing those tiers. But you are 100% right that there is a danger of it being overused. I would like it more as a "porous" threshold, where only a portion of the monsters of a higher tiers have it. If it's all of them, it's... a bit silly. All this being said, I am [I]very[/I] curious about how damage resistances to weapon damage will be handled. We see a tendency of having 5.0 powers "your unarmed attacks are now considered magical" become "your unarmed attacks can inflict force damage". Will a "plain" +1 sword give you a mean to overcome these resistances? How is a "non magical" martial supposed to do so if + weapons won't do it? [/QUOTE]
