D&D (2024) Graze on a miss questions

[OldSchoolGamerGirl]

Would it make more sense if they changed the damage type from Graze to Psychic?

I kinda like that idea

Does that mean it doesn’t work on undead? Constructs? Mindless oozes?

Edit: my bad, apparently mindless things aren’t necessarily immune to psychic damage. But I bet the question would come up anyway…heh

"This monster is immune to slashing damage but not psychic...so if I miss graze it enough times...."

I don't know how many of them are immune to psychic?

what are you doing?
missing you to death!

Nope, I realized that after. But I had to go look it up . Still seems weird to me for it to be mental damage though.

So many pitfalls, so many clarifications to be made, so many corner cases. These threads are pretty useful for new or experimental rules.

Some of these need new names.

Given what they're assigning it to, Graze should be Impact, Vex should be Harrying, and Flex should be LOL.

Sounds like the title of your love song.

Flex is more of a joke than the Versatile property it is based on.
