[QUOTE="James Gasik, post: 8586294, member: 6877472"] On the other hand, making the right weapon for the job do a little extra damage, as I do in my games, is just a nice bonus if it comes up. No one is prevented from dealing damage in this case. Personally, I hate the low tier enemies with resistance to nonmagical b/p/s damage the most- magic items are "optional" and you never know when you'll get one, if ever. Sure, there are options, but having been caught in a fight without a magic weapon when none of those options were on the table really bit. I mean, I was an archer, and my arrows were doing squat, meanwhile, the casters all had elemental damage cantrips that worked fine. It made me really miss being able to buy magic arrows! I don't mean to say you can't do it the other way, make a creature that requires a specific weapon to slay, but you do need to be careful with that. This would be ideal for legendary creatures any Bard has heard tales of. [/QUOTE]
