Enemy Dr

Currently playing another SK and really enjoying it. I'm eyeing the stone dragon feat but I'm wondering if it's useful against enemy DR.

It removes DR for two rounds. As a soul blade though I can get easy moral damage such as good/lawful and I can switch back and forth between iron and silver.

So what I'm wondering is how many mobs have DR other than silver/iron/evil? Such as adamantine or just dr/-

Thanks!

Iirc, monster DR is all DR/Breakthrough Dmg. I don't think there's any straight DR/-. And Adamantine isn't a material on SCOD, so I highly doubt that there's monsters with DR/Adamantine.

KK, so the feat would be pretty useless if you're able to get your alignment damage and silver/iron. Thanks!

There ARE monsters with multiple DR, such as 10/DR evil + alchemical silver. And IF you find yourself in a PvP situation, Adamantine is the most common DR from spells, although I will note that some of the planar metals count as adamantine towards damage reduction.

I don't think any monsters naturally have /adamantine DR, but a few of them do cast spells that grant them such DR. Some number of Stoneskins, and Succubi can be annoying with their Ethereal Visage.

I can't remember with certainty, but I think some of the golems might have had adamantine DR, but considering that there's just like one place with them, it's not really a factor.

I mean, it's basically a niche ability anyway, meant to give more utility to fighter/rogue types. The Soulknife class basically already acts like a magic fighter; if you will, so that that makes it even more of a niche ability for soulknives. It isn't useless, but I recommend weighing it against your needs for your build.

Golems and larger elemental sizes tend to have DR/Adamantine.
Lirisa ~ bartender at the Three Dragons.
Ilysthel ~ barmy little witch of the winters.
Brynn ~ vampire Mercykiller.
Adele ~ clueless soulknife with quite a bit of ADHD.
