I know that the bludgeoning, slashing, piercing resistance is broken, but I have read about work arounds, but I can't seem to get a clear picture of exactly how to do it. 

All I want is an item that reduces all physical damage by 25.

I chose the damage reduction property and it worked.

Yes, using the damage reduction property x amount/bypassed by y material or damage type will work. What won't work is x resistance to y physical damage type.

The material can be none, e.g. damage reduction 25/-. This means that nothing will bypass the reduction.

If you want to reduce damage from one particular type, that gets more complicated. You can either use damage immunity (which is a percentage rather than a constant amount) or work by exclusion. For example, you can create an item with damage reduction bypassed by bludgeoning or piercing, which will then reduce slashing damage. Setting the "or logic" in the toolset is a bit tricky but it can be done (the property listed on the item reads terribly, though).

Thanks for answering MC. The damage reduction you are talking about is right on the properties tab, right? I tried using that one to no avail. I made an item that is active in repository or equipped and then edited (or at least tried to) the damage reduction to 25/-, and gave the item to my NPC. When I attacked it, there didn't appear to be a damage reduction. I am certain I did it wrong.

The way I ended up doing it was adding an item property and selecting the "damage reduction" property.

For a creature, the damage reduction can go right in the Properties tab under "Damage Reductions", yes. I'm pretty sure that I tested this and found that it worked, but I suppose it's possible it doesn't. If not, then an item (skin, perhaps) with a Damage Reduction property should work.

I wasn't clear on which way you got it working. Was it through a scripted damage reduction ItemProperty?

[M. Rieder]

I got it to work by using the item property field and then selecting "25" under the damage reduction category. No custom scripting and I didn't use the damage reduction field on the properties tab.

I looked through the toolset and It seemed like the damage reduction field on the properties tab is only used on creatures. I didn't see it set on any skins. I may have missed some, though. My search was by no means comprehensive and I quit once I got things working.

Do you mean that you looked for the DR field on the Properties tab for items? Sorry, I did not mean to imply that. I have no idea whether there's such a field for items or whether it would work. If you're working on an item, stick to item properties.

I was only talking about the DR field on the Properties tab for creatures.

Oh. Well that makes sense and also matches what I observed. Thanks for your help, this discussion did help me sort out the damage reduction thing a lot more.
