I am wanting to implement DR via a damage-specific mechanic (like what used to be in 1e and 2e). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Armor and Damage Reduction by Type v6.5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Armor Arm Dex Damage Reduction Type Cost Bns Bns S P B ACP ASF Weight Light Armor -------------------------------------------------------------------- Padded 5gp +1 +8 none none none 0 5% 10 lb Leather 10gp +1 +6 2/- 1/- none 0 10% 15 lb MWK Studded Leather 175gp +2 +5 2/- 1/- none 0 15% 20 lb MWK Chain Shirt 250gp +2 +4 4/- 1/- 1/- -1 20% 25 lb Mithral Chain Shirt 1100gp +2 +6 4/- 1/- 1/- 0 10% 12.5 lb Mithral Scale mail 4050gp +2 +5 2/- 3/- 1/- -1 15% 15 lb Mithral Chainmail 4150gp +3 +4 4/- 1/- 1/- -2 20% 20 lb Mithral Breastplate 4200gp +3 +5 3/- 2/- 1/- -1 15% 15 lb Mithral Lamellar 4300gp +3 +3 2/- 3/- 1/- -1 25% 17.5 lb Adamantine Chain Shirt 5100gp +2 +4 5/- 2/- 2/- -1 20% 25 lb Medium Armor ------------------------------------------------------------------- MWK Hide 165gp +2 +4 1/- 1/- 1/- -2 20% 25 lb MWK Scale mail 200gp +2 +3 2/- 3/- 1/- -3 25% 30 lb MWK Chainmail 300gp +3 +2 4/- 1/- 1/- -4 30% 40 lb MWK Breastplate 350gp +3 +3 3/- 2/- 1/- -3 25% 30 lb Wildwood Scale mail 400gp +2 +4 1/- 1/- 1/- -3 20% 22.5 lb MWK Lamellar 450gp +3 +3 2/- 3/- 1/- -3 30% 35 lb Wildwood Breastplate 700gp +2 +4 2/- 2/- 2/- -3 25% 30 lb Dragon Hide 2515gp +2 +4 2/- 2/- 2/- -2 20% 25 lb Dragon Hide Breastplate 2700gp +3 +3 4/- 3/- 2/- -3 25% 30 lb Dragon Hide Lamellar 2950gp +3 +3 3/- 4/- 2/- -3 30% 35 lb Mithral Splint mail 9200gp +3 +2 3/- 2/- 4/- -4 30% 22.5 lb Mithral Banded mail 9250gp +3 +3 4/- 2/- 3/- -3 25% 17.5 lb Mithral Half-plate 9600gp +4 +2 4/- 3/- 2/- -4 30% 25 lb Adamantine Scale mail 10050gp +2 +3 4/- 5/- 3/- -3 25% 30 lb Adamantine Chainmail 10150gp +3 +2 6/- 3/- 3/- -4 30% 40 lb Adamantine Breastplate 10200gp +3 +3 5/- 4/- 3/- -3 25% 30 lb Adamantine Lamellar 10300gp +3 +3 4/- 5/- 3/- -3 30% 35 lb Mithral Full plate 10500gp +4 +3 5/- 4/- 3/- -3 25% 25 lb Heavy Armor -------------------------------------------------------------------- MWK Splint mail 350gp +3 -- 3/- 2/- 4/- -6 40% 45 lb MWK Banded mail 400gp +3 +1 4/- 2/- 3/- -5 35% 35 lb Wildwood Splint mail 700gp +3 +1 2/- 2/- 2/- -6 35% 31 lb MWK Half-plate 750gp +4 -- 4/- 3/- 2/- -6 40% 50 lb Wildwood Banded mail 800gp +3 +2 3/- 2/- 1/- -5 30% 27 lb Wildwood Half-plate 1500gp +3 +1 3/- 3/- 3/- -6 35% 37.5 lb MWK Full Plate 1650gp +4 +1 5/- 4/- 3/- -5 35% 50 lb Wildwood Full Plate 3300gp +4 +2 3/- 3/- 3/- -5 30% 37.5 lb Dragon Hide Banded mail 5250gp +3 +1 5/- 3/- 4/- -5 35% 35 1b Dragon Hide Half-plate 5600gp +4 -- 5/- 4/- 3/- -6 40% 50 lb Dragon Hide Full Plate 6500gp +4 +1 6/- 5/- 4/- -5 35% 50 lb Adamantine Splint mail 15200gp +3 -- 6/- 5/- 7/- -6 40% 45 lb Adamantine Banded mail 15250gp +3 +1 7/- 5/- 6/- -5 35% 35 lb Adamantine Half-plate 15600gp +4 -- 7/- 6/- 5/- -6 40% 50 lb Adamantine Full plate 16500gp +4 +1 8/- 7/- 6/- -5 35% 50 lb --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RaspK FOG 11-04-05, 12:06 PM	I use these rules: Criticals are scored by greatly bypassing one's Defence. A natural 1 signifies a -10 roll; check for critical fumble if BAB-10 < 0. A natural 20 counts as +30! Weapons define which multiplier applies at what excess over and above the target's Defence. Armour grants DR equal to its normal armour bonus against any damage dealt (characters have both Hardiness [Vitality] and Health [Wound] points). The armour's armour bonus to Defence applies only in reference to whether a successful hit is also a critical hit.
loaba 11-04-05, 02:16 PM	I thought about using the alternate attack roll as well. I'm considering the defensive roll too.
