Most things in the game have counters. For example, magic missile is blocked by shield. You can get poison immunity, but is there a way around ability damage in general, such as by a wounding weapon, or a ray of stupidity? :confused:

Take a level of Binder and bind Naberius. Take the feat - shape soulmeld:Vest. This gives you Resistance:1 to ability damage and fast healing 1 to ability damage. Also, play a gnome and get your CON high enough so that you never drop in one hit from CON damage.

There are spells you can have cast on you that absorb ability damage. I believe they're in complete champion.

Play an Incarnate and pump that Strongheart Vest to bursting with essentia.
