Repair Enhancements Affect Deconstruction?

[Jay203]

A little bit of both!

It's sort of like Disintegrate in that it's untyped damage, but it can only be cast on creatures whose Repair/Rust vulnerability > 0. It just then proceeds to ignore that vulnerability.

Eladrin, in that sense, shouldn't wf be 50% resistant to Harm to begin with then?

Ooooh, good point!

By the books, Warforged are 50% resistant to things from the healing sub-school (or for DDO, positive energy). The reverse, being 50% resistant to negative energy, is not true for Warforged.

The part DDO did mess up though is that technically Warforged are supposed to be 50% resistant to curing Ability Damage from Lesser Restoration, as it is part of the healing sub-school.

No, because that would make warforged even better than they are now.

Also, if Harm hurt warforged less, then it would stand to reason that it should hurt someone with Healing Amplification more. Actually, that would be kind of funny:

Party member 1: Alright, folks, this boss casts Mass Harm; take off your Levik's Bracers!
Party member 2: Shut up, noob; I get hurt more, but I also get healed more, so it balances out.
Party member 3: Whee! I'm a pale master!

It will not be fixed and verified by Monday.

It will be fixed for 11.1!

• The Construct Essence feat now states that it gives 50% vulnerability to rust damage.

• Deconstruct now does rust damage instead of untyped damage.
