07-31-05, 09:42 PM What is the 3.5 version of the damage reduction for the Death Knight. In 3.0 MM2 its 15/+1. Does he get DR 15/magic in 3.5 or what?

You can look at this one of two ways, it was either forgotten and making it 15/magic or even 15/magic or good is well within the limits of the monster as written in 3.0, or that a decision was made to remove the DR all together and make it more inline with the original 1st ED and 2nd ED writeups.

That's what I'ld use personally, even though no official word has been said on the matter(Most/maybe all skeletal undead tend to have DR bludgeoning anyways).
