The problem with Malediction is that someone can take "Resistant: Teleportation, Immunity" and render the kitten-teleport attack completely irrelevant since theirs is a resistance roll and that is explicitly what Resistant is for. |

By the way, Kromm, do you think maybe this issue should go in the FAQ? It isn't really very clear from RAW, so some reference to it besides searches on the forums might be nice, I think. And, out of curiosity, what was the thought behind listing Armor divisor: Infinity (if that is all it is) under Comic rather than under Armor Divisor? And is the fact that it can be completely countered by a +50% enhancement to DR (as opposed to the +120% for hardened vs. Ignores DR) not worth any discount? Admittedly, it will be a very rare counter, but still.... |

In a world where kittens can be teleported into internal organs, it does not strain the suspension of disbelief that some beings would be immune to such an attack.

And I'd be willing to wager it'll come up again. Really, I think it hasn't come up very much because most people are assuming the "Cosmic Attacks ignore Hardness" point, and not even bothering to ask about it. |
