But its a little basic and reductive. I dont think anyone wants to go back to the old ''DR 5/adamantium +3''. But having the Eladrin stablock like this:<table style='width: 100%'><tr><th>STR</th><th>DEX</th><th>CON</th><th>INT</th><th>WIS</th><th>CHA</th></tr><tr><td>Medium fey (elf), chaotic neutral</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Armor Class 19 (natural armor)</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Hit Points 127 (17d8 + 51)</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Speed 30 ft.</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>11 (+0)</td><td>10 (+0)</td><td>16 (+3)</td><td>18 (+4)</td><td>17 (+3)</td><td>13 (+1)</td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Damage Resistances cold; bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from non-cold iron attacks</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Senses darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 13</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Languages Common, Elvish, Sylvan</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Challenge 10 (5,900 XP)</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Fey Step (Recharge 4–6).

It would force the players to do a little research and lore checks to know which weapon to use, then getting them. So what if the fighter needs to carry a quiver of silvered arrows, a adamantium hammer and a cold-iron spear in addition to is trusty masterwork +1 weapon in case he has to fight enemy X? Wizard have to guess and prepare their spell for special contingencies, why shouldn't the fighter? You never hear a wizard complaining: ''arrrghg I have to prepare cold spells in addition to my illusions and armor spells because we are going against a fire salamander in the Forest of Cinder''!</blockquote>
