The rulebook describes the daemonic trait on pg 130 as similar to an Unnatural characteristic - it acts as a multiplier of the TB (vs 'mundane' damage) and it can stack with the TB from un. toughness trait. Now the errata for the Daemon Prince states to change the trait daemonic on pg 362 to "Daemonic (TB 8) as per trait description". How does this interact with the DP's toughness bonus? The way I read the trait description on pg 130 suggested something along the lines of Daemonic (X) eg Daemonic (1) , Daemonic (2) etc so that the number in parens would be used as a multiplier.

The DP has un. toughness x2 and an overall TB of 12 in his stat line. Is this calculated as follows :

[base TB 4 x 2 (un. tough) = 8 ] + [ base TB 4 x 1 (Daemonic) = 4] = 12 TB total?

is this correct/incorrect?

thanks in advance.

As I recall, the demonic trait simply doubles the TB vs. "regular," non-warp, non-holy attacks. The number in parentheses corresponds to double to TB. So, if your beasties has a TB of 4, and demonic is listed as Demonic (8), it means it counts its toughness as 8 vs. non-holy attacks.

Hope this helps!

It's correct. The errata is still inaccurate on this, btw. It should read 'Daemonic(x2)'. This stacks with Unnatural Toughness(x2), meaning it raises the multiplier by 1.
