There will be PC powers that affect whole classes offensively (e.g. turn undead); there won't be blanket exclusions (as in SA) -- as it stands now, mutates mutants, etc. The difference between the two exists only in semantics and economy of expression, right? "SA affects all creatures except constructs, elementals, oozes…", and people are up in arms about their characters getting hobbled (as this thread demonstrates). "Additionally, you do bonus SA damage against humanoids, monstrosities, beasts …" and we should be fine. Except we're not because players assume a rogue without SA is lame in combat, which strikes me as particularly unimaginative. Of course, any individual creature can have immunities, resistances, vulnerabilities, etc. That goes without saying. The answer here concedes nothing about that which doesn't already exist in common sense. IMO.</blockquote>
