03-27-05, 05:21 PM If you play a warforged with feat Adamantine Body, does this mean that your unarmed or slam attack is now adamantine? The logic being that if a creature has DR magic, then it's attacks are magic.

No to both. The most LIBERAL interpretation would be that you could make an attack with a gauntlet (most medium and heavy armors come with gauntlets; as per the weapon description).

It's one of those fuzzy areas where the wording of the feat and cross checking various definitions don't match up cleanly.

For example: The D&D3.5 FAQ allows you to use a 2-handed weapon and make an off-hand attack with armor spikes or unarmed strike, but the definition of "off-hand attack" in the PHB glossary says that an off-hand attack is an attack with the weaker or non-primary hand (which is obviously holding something like a greatsword).

Another one for the "Dispel Confusion" articles, as long as they cross-check the other definitions instead of shooting from the hip as usual.

that idea came from the picture of the warforge juggernaght
