I got lost about half way through this thread because of all the numbers people are throwing in there. I do have a question, I think I get the gist that people are afraid Oog-ra's and Thugian's, who have low DR, will be messed up after the changes. First, since we haven't seen them, that's pretty much speculation. Second, don't those races have more hit points and can't they carry heavier (higher percentage) armor?

Right now, most people don't wear the heavier armor, because for the difference in protection of 1 to maybe 4 points, you are talking 50 to 70 pounds of additional weight. Now, percentage wise, it may be very lucrative for those who can actually carry that heavy of armor to do so. That, along with their extra hit points, just seems to me will balance the whole lower DR issue. They are pretty much getting hit most of the time already, aren't they?
