[QUOTE="Belen, post: 1778225, member: 1405"] And I do not doubt that a new edition will arrive. However, I am willing to bet that the new edition does not appear from another 3-4 years. Why? Because they would be shooting themselves in the foot by bringing out a new edition so close to the release of Eberron and DnDonline. Any major changes would tank Eberron before it got started. Armor as DR seems to be your pet change. I will say that it is highly unlikely that change will go into effect. It's nice for an alternate mechanic so that some gamists can have a new tool, but the majority of people are just fine with the current Armor as AC. And you're still ignoring that someone weilding a dagger against DR 8 just cannot damage the person. The same goes for several other light weapons. So you basically want just the heavy fighter types to be viable options. Armor as DR really is far more trouble than it is worth. [/QUOTE]
