DR stacking

Post by Ovarf »

I'd need to verify that DR is supposed to stack (3.5E and NWN2 differ in some cases), but this sounds like more of a bug in the game if that's correct. I'm not aware that we're doing anything special with DR and your items would have standard NWN2 itemproperties. Will follow-up.

To the best of my knowledge, such things as DR & AC(Dodge AC will stack) & char attributes (strength-wisdom-ETC) do not stack. Certain skills do stack such as Hide and Move Silently (not sure about all the skills but I use these most frequently).

DR Rules from 3.5 SRD.

Last line:
DnD 3.5 SRD wrote:If a creature has damage reduction from more than one source, the two forms of damage reduction do not stack. Instead, the creature gets the benefit of the best damage reduction in a given situation.
So things are acting as they should according to 3.5 Rules.
