Fear not, however, as I’ve got just the thing you need: the where and how of getting it. Now, resistance is nice, but it means nothing if you can’t get it. This is because resistance is always resolved last ( PHB pg. Likewise, an ability like the goliath’s Stone’s Endurance would stack with resistance, reducing the damage before halving it. For example, the Rogue’s Uncanny Dodge ability would stack with resistance so you would take a quarter of the triggering damage instead of only half. You can benefit from resistance alongside other forms of damage reduction. So our tiefling would not have gained any additional benefit from casting Absorb Elements. You cannot benefit from resistance or suffer from vulnerability twice on the same damage. To go along with resistance, there’s also immunity, and vulnerability: Immunity negates damage entirely, and vulnerability doubles it. in our example, 91 fire damage is halved to 45.5, you’d then round down to 45 damage total instead.
If you take an odd number of damage, you round the end result down, e.g. Resistance reduces damage taken by half, but only for the specific damage type(s) you are resistant to. Now you can see resistance can be very important, let’s take a deeper look: How Resistance WorksĬlear and simple: when you take damage, you reduce your HP by the amount of damage taken. You take… 91 points of fire damage! Yowch, that’s gonna leave a mark! Good thing that tiefling has fire resistance or the dragon’s breath would have cut her down pretty quickly. ‘Cute’ I said, weaving strips of electricity together ‘I’ve met dogs with more heat than that!’ and unleashed a bolt of lightning into the dragon’s half-open maw.” Mischief musing over a fight with a dragon My fiendish heritage protected me against the flames. I was a little singed, but for the most part, I wasn’t harmed at all. The others hit the ground while I stood and took it. “The dragon reared and exhaled a gout of fire.
