Skill that would lower monster's phys res a bit (some 20%-40% perhaps). Also
this skill might be exclusive for crimsons as they really lack skills of their
own.
In my opinion phys res is the most stupid feature ever been in the game
(including the tax/fine for typos!) and should be removed from monsters and
players altogether.

Why is it so stupid?
In my opinion it makes kind of sense that ie. iron golem can endure massive
amounts of blows whilst a fragile elf is beaten to bloody bulp with few
strokes. I think it's quite nice feature.

Those are called hit points.

I disagree, because
in my opinion hit points are just a statistic number that indicate how hurt
you are, not how well your iron skin takes the edge out of the incoming blows.
In case of that 'pr golem' only small amount of damage is inflicted due to
huge amounts of resistance provided by the natural armour, and it makes sense.

Nope, pr is magical bonus that makes physical damage not to affect you, Hard
skin gives better AC.

In fantasy literature pr normally affects only undeads or other magical
creatures but this is batmud and a bunny can cast golden arrows and have 100%
pr.

While at it, should remove all resists as every bit equally stupid.
Also all sorts of defensive skills suck, remove those.
Hp all the way.

I wouldn't take Kimvais TOO seriously, after all he is a
previously purged wiz. With ideas and opinions like his,
its not long before history repeats itself! =D =D =D

I wouldn't bash wizards on things that have happened years prior you started
playing batmud, especially with a track record like yours.
See news botposter, I think you disagreeing on something actually officially
declares the idea as a good one. Well at least popular one. =D

Bash? I hope you didn't take it that way my sincere
appologies. I was refering to your unpopular news ratings
on almost all of your ideas pre-morting this time around
and prehaps suggesting that maybe you arrent
"wizzard material" Do not take offense though: Because
as you said, I'm just Blackstar and if I am disagreeing
well.. =)

Kimvais is a wizard with good hands-on knowledge on the game and the current
tune. He also is a skilled coder. You should not flame him, especially based
on his previous immortality. Why he was purged/remorted/whatever (I can't be
arsed to find out which of them) is not an issue at all. He is a wizard now.
Also bear in mind that the new wizards are generally the ones who produces
most of the new material for this game and Kimvais has been very active.
