acids and bases in d&d and the damage types

[Umbran]

hi there, i was wondering in d&d would you say that bases exist chemistry wise?

The damage types are not built on real-world chemistry. If we think of it as a caustic chemical, be it an acid, a base, or just a highly reactive gas, it is all "acid" damage.

Acid = Caustic in the same way Poison=Venom=Toxin, real world chemistry doesmt apply
