Damage reduction with weapon material to bypass

[Telkar]

Another thread got me thinking of how in the 3.5 edition rules, for example a weapon with material type silver would be needed to damage a werewolf, regardless of how enchanted it is. Tried to see if this had been discussed before, but found no thread. Anyway, I'm just curious about whether someone knows if it's a hassle or even doable to implement with haks and everything. If it could be added in, that'd be super sweet.

While nice....it might be something thats a bit OP, it would make every other weapon in the game useless against them and literally lead to the death of every wizard that doesnt use Silver, most Clerics that dont use weapons and a number of other classes.

This is hardcoded unfortunately.

Just one of many script systems made to fix the issue.

I'll have to check but most of these scripts tend to be resource-intensive and thus generate lag.

Hardcoded is what I'd have guessed. Thanks.

I seem to remember the Dev team kicking around an idea that shapechangers would get a 20/- DR and silver weapons would have +20 damage vs. Shapechangers.

That was an old idea from the very earliest days of the server (2005-2006) and we abandoned it.
