Penetration boosters

Do penetration boosters give their bonus for natural attacks that allow resistance? For example, if I give an Aboleth an eye of the void, would he get +2 on his enslave mind attack?

Also, do bonuses apply to spells cast from items?

Not sure about items. Most natural abilities do not get a penetration boost AFAIK. Not sure about units that auto-cast spells at the beginning of a battle either.

this is an interesting question. i have been messing around with ethereal crossbow(infinite damage). MR negates this weapon, and i was wondering if boosting the hero with magic focus, eye of focus etc would help...

I don't know. But remember, ask for penetration permission first.

Sometimes its easier to apologize after than get permission before, Soy.

Oh, and by the way, sorry about last night.

Yeah, true, but you open yourself to the risk of a lawsuit.

On a related topic, thanks for opening me last night. I didn't mind in the end. How about next week?
