"Resistance to all damage except from magical weapons"... Wait, so magical weapons can do full damage against you, but magical spells can't? That's thematically very odd. 2602:306:3317:2900:954C:F6F2:5B0B:64C7 06:30, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Not at all. The gods of mythology typically fight with weapons. Odin's spear Gungnir, Thor's hammer Mjolnir, Artemis' spear, Poseidon's trident, Apollo's arrows, even Zeus's famous Thunderbolt is treated as though to were a thrown spear. It makes sense; minor trivialities of cold and heat they would simply shrug off. Remember what magic weapons are supposed to be; they're not meant to be something one can pick up at the dollar store on the way home. They are earthshaking tools beyond mortal ken, giving mere men the means needed to fight monsters that are either resistant or else entirely immune to conventional weapons.--Sir Dinadan (talk) 16:14, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
