[QUOTE="Brown Jenkin, post: 661827, member: 2572"] Right now our group has a sort of specialty like you want, however we still ocaisionaly run up against other types monsters to keep things from getting too repetative. I don't want to play a fight ONLY Deamons, or Dragons, or etc. campain and I don't want the rules to encourage it. Knowing that we do run into other things ocaisionaly means that I want to be prepared enough that we don't get our buts kicked when we run into them. It only makes sense therfore to have the golfbag of weapons under the new rules. Sure you can set up a quest for some specific weapon needed to handle a unique monster, but you can do that now under the existing rules. Running into Fey or Lycanthropes is not a quest though and the new rules will not encourage encourage running out to find a special weapon but to just have a weapon of every common material. Why run back to town if you run into something wierd when you can just carry your HHH golfbag of weapons (a minor cost by 4-5th level) or have your caster use his scroll of Transmute Metal that will be carried for just such an occaision (I don't memorize Remove Paralysys every day but I do always have a scroll of it). The only thing this rule change seems to do is delay combat a round or two while the correct weapon is being prepared. [/QUOTE]
