Message: <blockquote data-quote="paulewaug" data-source="post: 1054734" data-attributes="member: 5899">Hey! Some useful input!Thanks Souljourner!I posted this in the "Rules section" because I wanted input on the valid rules and how silver and mithral relate to each other by the rules. With regards to scarcity and value-economics, etc.Obviously implementing "Mithral counts as Silver" Would be a House Rule because, No, it is never stated in any of the books that "Mithral Is counted as Silver for purposes of bypassing DR."But I didn't want to say "hey here is a house rule what do think?!"I wanted to see if there was a valid reason, based upon the rules of these two materials to have or not have them do the same thing.Thus my opening with:  If a moderator thinks this should be in the House Rules section they are absolutely more than welcome to move it, but for now I am looking for input on Why Not to allow Mithral to bypass Silver DR.  MY reasoning is that it is rare and costs more-But as Souljourner has pointed out the designers may have taken the value and material affects in to consideration when designing the DR/Silver.This is a valid point and useful input.SO yes By the rules Mithral Is Not Silver so is not inherently by the rules allowed to bypass Silver.KaeYoss makes a good point as well in that even though it is called various "-silver" names that does Not necessarily mean that it should be allowed to bypass DR.  Good point, because no it is never mentioned in the rules that it Does. Thanks for the input!
