So I've been messing around with partial resistances, etc. on tavern. I've found it is actually harder to advance a troll under PR: trolls get -100 resistance fire, a huge disadvantage. It's taken 2.5 protection items to negate this. Before, one item would do the trick. I've found that "resistance weaponmagic" comes up sometimes. I do not think it should: Mark said he'd fix this but his server doesn't reflect it yet. Other than that, though, it seems to be working well. I think that the artifact "dragon mail" ought to get 50 or at least 40 prot. fire. In general, though, the PR stuff seems working well. I urge Mark to put it in CVS and we can all get busy about testing it and balancing things... PeterM
