I'm also not saying you can't use your imagination, obviously that's what we're doing here on this website. But how come the same couldn't be done for a image in a different art medium? Maybe it's because I'm a visual person, but I would imagine it being much easier. *looks at picture* "oh okay...

oh kay. I see where you're getting at now. I was looking at it strictly from a "transfer to a player's perspective and thought process." I'm not expecting ANY character to expect another to have an immunity to a specific damage, as you've described. I was simply stating how stabbing and piercing...
