0 damage possible? (i.e. 1d4-2)

[Thanee]

Simple question, can you do 0 damage with an attack or is there a minimum of 1 damage?

Wasn't it that minimum before DR is 1, but DR can also make it 0?

 

[hong]

Minimum of 1 before DR.

 

[Thanee]

I had something like that in mind, but couldn't find it in the SRD.

Minimum Damage: If penalties reduce the damage result to less than 1, a hit still deals 1 point of damage.

Which is why the average domestic housecat can possibly slay your average armed first level commoner. Especially if munched-out.

Death by house cat. Didn't that happen in "Catch 22"?

 

[Thanee]

Thank you!

In our case, it's a badger, not a house cat, but still, the tiny claws do cause some trouble, minor, but enough to be annoying.

Some of you will have heard this story from me before: last year I statted myself up in d20 Modern as a 1st level "Smart Hero" and rolled a combat against my cat. With no particularly high or low rolls for either side, he killed me in three rounds. Smart Hero indeed.

The housecat hits! The housecat misses. The housecat bites!

You die...
