D&D 5e: Immunities, Resistances and Vulnerabilities, Explained

The article from MSN discusses the mechanics of immunities, resistances, and vulnerabilities in the context of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (D&D 5e). It explains how these attributes affect gameplay by altering the damage characters or creatures take from various types of attacks. Immunities mean a character or creature takes no damage from a specific damage type, like fire or poison. Resistances halve the damage from certain types, making characters or creatures tougher against those attacks. Conversely, vulnerabilities double the damage taken from specific damage types, making entities more susceptible to those forms of attack. The article provides examples of how these traits can be applied in game scenarios, such as a fire-resistant dragon or a character vulnerable to cold damage, and how players can strategically use this knowledge to their advantage in combat. It also touches on how these traits can be gained through spells, items, or racial features, enhancing the strategic depth of the game.
