Regarding how effective regular weaponry is, it'd vary with the target. KC has noted it's not all that unusual for skilled humans or monsters in this setting to be able to do superhuman things like deflect bullets with a sword (hence why info on the magitech guns note it's important there be support units to distract the target and thus improve the chance of the bullets finding their mark). Then we have all the monsters whose bodies would probably not be effected much but regular weapons, either due to them not being made of flesh and blood (ghosts, phantoms, elementals), or being able to regenerate (skeletons, living dolls), or simply being extremely hard to damage (living armor, dragons). Then you have magical protections, like "Oath of Pleasure" that outright alters reality around the user so that physical damage simply cannot happen (in exchange for the user likewise not being able to inflict damage, and becoming weaker to pleasure). You could hit such a monster with a bunker buster and it wouldn't even scratch them. Course monsters that can use a spell of that level would usually be in the minority.

And of course, with widespread necromancy, even successfully killing someone is no guarantee they'll stay dead.
