Conditons

Hi,

I've got problem with conditions. Ok. I was hit by a sneak. I have 5 ongoing damage. I didn't make saving throw on the end of my turn and the snake hit mi again. Now. I have two conditions with ongoing damage on myself or just one? That's little confusing. What with other combinations. What happens when I have conditions on myslef and I'm dying? Other conditions goes away? Or I need still to roll for them (and for death saving throw)?

The same condition generally does not stack with itself, so if you're bitten twice by a snake you still only have "poisoned: ongoing 5 damage".

Ongoing damage of the same damage type generally doesn't stack either, so "poisoned: ongoing 5 damage" and "poisoned: ongoing 10 damage" turns into just "poisoned: ongoing 5 damage".

Ongoing damage of different damage types generally does stack, as does other conditions. If you're unlucky to be hit with "poisoned: ongoing 5", "on fire: ongoing 5" and "immobilized", you're stuck to the floor and take 10 points of damage per round (and you're making three saves per round to get rid of the various conditions).

Being dying generally doesn't get rid of conditions, though being dead does (or at least makes them irrelevant).

This should be you combine them into ongoing poison 10 damage, not 5.
