Actually, slashes aren't neccessarily a shalow minor wound. Despite that fact, I think this would be one of those realism trips that would kill off the game. Think of what would happen if players began losing otherwise close fights because "Jupiter has a crushing weapon", it would really kill off the idea of high level players going off for challenges. Some people might consider that it'd encourage people to group with clerics, but it would also kill off grouping by causing clerics to run out of mana, the tank would die, and then so would clerics. It would really cause players to shy away from the challenges and go solo and kill easy things, and not share the exp Of course, all of the above is IMHO.
