Re: Hardness vs DR? [3.5]
Yeah -- hardness works against most "magic" type damage, including fire/cold/acid/electricity. DR does not.
You can call me Draz.

I have a number of ongoing projects that I manically jump between to spend my free time ... so don't be surprised when I post a lot about something for a few days, then burn out and abandon it.
... yes, I need to be tested for ADHD.

Re: Hardness vs DR? [3.5]
Ok, anything else (beyond "a pick wielded by a commoner can't pierce stone" stuff)?

Re: Hardness vs DR? [3.5]
Energy reacts differently to the two, and DR usually has conditions to bypass it.

Re: Hardness vs DR? [3.5]
As are certain ToB maneuvers. However, DR has a built in mechanism for bypass, in most cases.
Whether that's <Magic>, <adamantine>, <silver>, <cold iron>, or <epic> is another story.

Re: Hardness vs DR? [3.5]
Or <slashing>, <piercing>, <bludgeoning>. Or DR/- (no bypass). (Or others, but those are the most common.)
