Base damage for Holy Weapons

Unread post by Dvalin21 »

So the book of Atlantis says that Holy Weapons even the simple ones base damage is no less than 2D6+6. Now, does that mean the weapon damage should start at the natural form of the weapon if more than the 2D6+6 or should it always start at the 2D6+6? Thanks.

No less than.
So if the base damage is less than 2d6+6 move it up. If the damage is more than 2d6+6 though, you do not lower it... after all it is already 'no less than'.

Basically "Holy Weapon Damage is Greater than or equal to 2d6+2."
The rules are not a bludgeon with which to hammer a character into a game. They are a guide to how a group of friends can get together to weave a collective story that entertains everyone involved. We forget that at our peril.

Thanks for the clarification.
