It's supposed to be a special material, so far as I can tell, but I'm not finding anything on it. Any help? If they exist in 3.5, what/where are the rules for Dragonmetal? Thanks

My advice is to simply use mithril as a substitute for dragonmetal.

Very much like Glassteel, from Races of Faerun - a semi-transparent magical metal alloy that acts effectively as both mythral and adamantine, which is effectively what dragonmetal is, only 3.0 rules for both. I never had problems with the 3.0 rules.

Apr 26, 2005 11:10:27 Hmm... dragonmetal as combining the attributes of mithril and adamantine. Why didn't I think of that? I'm going to do some revising when I get home.
