(Though it gets close to this already with AC stacking)The second point that might cause issues is multiple attacks is the main way of scaling for higher CR/threats. Once again a moderate amount of DR will impact this but not to a degree you'd need to worry about restructuring the system. In a lot of ways it would function like THP. It can keep you upright longer but the threat is still valid.The actual value is here probably need to be played with a little bit to find a sweet spot between avoidance (AC) and reduction (DR) that works better than what is happening now but it could be worth it. Why not poke around at it seeing we are on the early stages of a new edition anyways. Someone might stumble onto something amazing.</blockquote>
