[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 7849381, member: 6804070"] Initially I was like ooh, ugh, I hate those ideas... I mean energy drain was so over used and only exacerbated level disparity problems. But then I stopped and after a while let the ideas think in. So, exhaustion, I believe their are canon creatures that do that, though its not called energy drain.

To me, the biggest problem with SR was two rolls. Roll to save, roll to overcome SR. Just make it into one roll, speed things up! Magic weapons...
