Well I sort of look at it like the auto-hit/miss thing for weapons. Should a level 20 barbarian even be able to touch a level 41 leuian hand cleric if the leuian's DR is over double the OR of the barb? I've seen it happen. Nothing about DGate makes any sense...

I also think that is why most of the older players have shelfed their top characters and just started over...soon there will be nothing but oog-ra and thugian barbarians in the game and everyone will wonder why.
