Maybe the blow from a flaming sword was so weak, it was the equivelent of having a hot ash dropped on you, as I belive that torches would have minimum damage applied to them as well.It is hard to reconcile something like this, though.Rouge with -2 STR hits with a shortsword for 1 point, he does 1 point.Rouge with a -2 STR hits with a 1+ short sword for 1 point, he does 1 point.It would make a lot of sense that minimum damage is one + enhancement bonus, with sneak attack and elemental or special damage handled seperately. Or even a 1 point min for each dice you roll. A great swords min damage should be higher than a long swords. Even a light cut to your throght (sneak attack), is going to be more dangerous than the same cut to your arm.The one point minimum is there to insure that if you hit, you do SOMETHING. It can also be used to reflect a glancing blow, just enough to draw blood. I would go by that interpretation simply because it would be far simpler.</blockquote>
