[QUOTE="Derren, post: 4171422, member: 2518"] Ok. -> Gamist rules which are completely unlogical Magic Threashold makes no sense. Why do high level monsters not benefit from magical weapons? One explanation is that their magical "monsterousness" overpowers the magical attributes of the weapon. That works for monsters but it is very likely that NPCs will be build with the same system and I can't think a reason why a human level 20 NPC can't benefit from a +2 Weapon. It solves that PCs get piles of magical weapons but in a very clunky way. ->Fluff text and game rules mismatch Vampire lords create armies of vampire spawns......how? Certainly not through their blood drain ability. And I fail to see how the Lich template is in any way geared for arcane casters considering that a fighter with a /encounter ability also benefits from it (but that is more of a case of the Lich being bland instead of flavor text mismatch) [/QUOTE]
