Ad_Hoc is blocked, so I can't see anything he says.
In any case, my PC's engage in Buffy style research where they hit up libraries, consult sages, cast divination spells, cash in favors from other supernatural beings, etc. So under most circumstances they have probably heard of something. And if they have not heard of something, they are more than willing to let people die to avoid rushing while they learn about their enemy. They are a weird bunch.
If they are doing all of that then they should be able to know its weakness. That is playing (in that style) as intended.
