Nope, as far as I've seen the defensive DRN adds to protection, it doesn't subtract from damage. |
It's simple to test this. Just get a bunch of illithid; their mindblast deals 1 AN+mr damage. If AN allows an opposed DRN roll, then the average damage will be 1; if AN ignores the opposed DRN roll, then the average damage will be around 7. When I checked this for myself, the average damage was indeed around 1.
Which means the death bless causes *all* the damage to be AN+mr, not just the 2 bonus damage.
