Damage Reduction & Damage Types

[Sketchpad]

On page 55 of Champions Complete under Damage Negation, it says...
 

"If applied to attacks of a specific Special Effect, it works regardless of how the attacks are built, but it only works against attacks of that Special Effect, and it gets no Limitation for this."

 

However, on page 11 of Champions Powers, under Acid Proof, we get this build...

 

"Variant Acid-Proof: Change to: Damage Negation (-8 DCs Energy) (40 Active Points); Only Works Against Acid (-1). Total cost: 20 points."

 

Which is correct? Doe Damage Negation not get a Limitations? 

[Hugh Neilson]

I believe Acid Proof will work only against attacks defended by ED, so it's standard negation with a limitation. 

 

Damage Negation against the Acid Special Effect would defend against, say, Acid Adjustment Powers, an Acid AVAD vs Power Defense, etc.
