| AAB06-08-07, 01:54 AM | it's generally a good idea for any character to have multiple weapons of different materials. |

| KangTheCallipygian06-08-07, 04:05 PM | It is a good idea, but you don't have every DR type covered yet. Make them all +1 weapons and grab a +1 morningstar of each material as well and you're a lot closer, but there's still untyped DR and alignment-based DR (a few doses of various oils of align weapon takes care of the latter if this is starting to sound a little pricey.) For those other cases that still aren't covered, just find someone who knows how to dish out the pain and stay close to them. I mean, I know this guy - not naming any names or anything - who's big and strong and quotes from Star Trek in his Sig and screen name and looks more than a little krusky much of the time, who once got so angry that I slew a Rakshasa in one hit with an unaligned slashing weapon; DR doesn't have to be a big issue if you just hit as hard as you can with a reeeeeally sharp sword held in both hands!
