# Damage Types
|
||
|
|
*Source: SRD / Basic Rules*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Acid
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The corrosive spray of a black dragon's breath and the dissolving enzymes secreted by a black pudding deal acid damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Bludgeoning
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Blunt force attacks—hammers, falling, constriction, and the like—deal bludgeoning damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Cold
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The infernal chill radiating from an ice devil's spear and the frigid blast of a white dragon's breath deal cold damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Fire
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Red dragons breathe fire, and many spells conjure flames to deal fire damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Force
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Force is pure magical energy focused into a damaging form. Most effects that deal force damage are spells, including magic missile and spiritual weapon.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Lightning
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A lightning bolt spell and a blue dragon's breath deal lightning damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Necrotic
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Necrotic damage, dealt by certain undead and some spells, withers matter and even the soul.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Piercing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Puncturing and impaling attacks, including spears and monsters' bites, deal piercing damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Poison
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Venomous stings and the toxic gas of a green dragon's breath deal poison damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Psychic
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mental abilities such as a mind flayer's psionic blast deal psychic damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Radiant
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Radiant damage, dealt by a cleric's flame strike spell or an angel's smiting weapon, sears the flesh like fire and overloads the spirit with power.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Slashing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Swords, axes, and monsters' claws deal slashing damage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Thunder
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A concussive burst of sound, such as the effect of the thunderwave spell, deals thunder damage.
