View Full Version : (P6)Pierce-weak low CR enemies?

Was populating a campaign area. Worked up a whole thing of enemies for a bbeg plot. Noticed that they all had DR/slash&bludgeon. Worried that someone will build around piercing weapons (an archer, for instance) and be nerfed as a result.

Any ideas of other things I can put in the area to compensate? Lots of psi, divine&arcane spellcasting banned.

Switch out that DR for DR X/magic or silver or something.

Archers who don't bring along bludgeoning arrows bring any DR hassles on themselves. :smalltongue:

That said, I would suggest leaving the DR as-is until you see characters; if somebody does focus entirely around piercing damage for whatever reason, then you can either just switch out the DR as Xerxus suggested or add in a secondary objective that gives the piercer something else to do, so that some rogue stuck with short-swords could disable traps, &c.
