Doing damage to monsters/characters with weapon resistance?
(Shawn Woods): Weapon Resistance, as possessed by some monsters such as Vampires and Enchanted Rats, is overcome by high weapon skill level. (ML): It appears that the only things that really help vs Shifters, Vampo Mages, etc. is having the Power spell, very high strength, very high weapon skill level, a very good magical weapon, or lots of blast casters. (GL): You can overpower lower power weapon resistance with lvl 1 weapons consistently if you have a 28+ strength (60+%). Also, magic weapons entirely bypass the lower weapon resistance of Enchanted Rats/Minor Vampires. However, against the weapon resistance of regular Vampires, Bumble overcame it with a (weapon skill points at) level 3 weapon about 10% of the hits using regular weapons.

Magic weapons can nullify this on a level per level basis, b
