05-06-04, 04:23 PM Does 15/+1 Damage Reduction mean, that its 10/+2 and 5/+3?

or is it that a +1 negates all the Reduction?

05-06-04, 04:28 PM A weapon with a +1 enhancement bonus will bypass all of the damage reduction.

05-06-04, 05:05 PM ah, a 3.0 DR discussion.

multiples would apply like that when a creature has multiple damage reductions (perhaps form putting a tempate that grants DR onto a creature that already has DR).

05-06-04, 05:38 PM Thats right, so you would only change the DR according to the enhancement of the weapon if the Special Qualities were listed something like as follows:
Special Qualities: Darkvision 60ft, Cold Resistance 10, DR 15/+1, DR 10/+2, DR 5/+3
Otherwise, it is fully reduced by a +1 weapon.
Although I have never seen a monster with multiple damage reductions in 3.0....but maybe thats because I havent looked hard enough.
