If a monster – with a Multiattack (x2) dealing 6d12+4 damage with each attack – hits a PC/NPC with hit points equal to or less than that number, reducing the PC to 0 hit points, and then hits with its second attack...how is that second attack within its Multiattack resolved?
Do I use the Instant Death rule or do I use the Damage at 0 Hit Points rule?
Instant Death:
Damage at 0 Hit Points
Thanks!

Instant Death:
PHB 197 said:Massive damage can kill you instantly. When damage reduces you to 0 hit points and there is damage remaining, you die if the remaining damage equals or exceeds your hit point maximum.
Damage at 0 Hit Points
PHB 197 said:If you take any damage while you have 0 hit points, you suffer a death saving throw failure. If the damage is from a critical hit, you suffer two failures instead. If the damage equals or exceeds your hit point maximum, you suffer instant death.
Thanks!
