In PHB it overcomes damge reduction, but does it also gets the extra 2d6 damge as a holy weapon does, as in the DMG?

I would say that it does make sence if it did, but i cannot find it anywere.

It isn't an "holy" weapon, it is a "good" weapon
There is a different between "holy" and "good"
It will be VERY overpowered if you let the rule be like that! A neutral Cleric becomes more and more powerfull

04-03-07, 07:34 AM Yeah, I too think WotC have been unknowingly been giving neutral clerics the upper hand over the good/evil cleric. But back on topic no, it definatly doesn't. But I believe that there is a 4th or so level spell that does that. If I ever find it I'll tell you. :)

Oh, it's a 4th level Paladin spell 'holy sword' though.
Or Miracle can duplicate the effect.
