Pretty much. You have a higher chance of giving him a deadly wound, since
I believe vulnerability stages it up a level, and allergy increases the
power level, depending on the severity of the allergy. So if you were to
go up against Strahd von Sillygoose, I'd rather have Hans and Franz the
street sammies with wired reflexes 3 and their Panther Assault Cannons with
integral smart-gun links and maybe a mage stacking mana bolts than Dr. van
Helsings going at with a stake and a bottle of holy water. =)
