E195 - Player Options - Damage and Poisons: A Healthy Dose of Hurt

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast addresses the thing that power gamers love, that min-maxers crave, and that new players have a surprising amount of difficulty wrapping their brains around: Damage.  In a game as combat-oriented as Dungeons & Dragons, damage should be one of the main aspects for players and Dungeon Masters alike to focus on manipulating.  But does everyone understand the rules?  Are there enough different kinds?  And how can a better understanding help your games moving forward.  Cold Open 0:00 Intro 0:47 Weapons 2:50 Commercial Break 47:23 Damage Types 48:22 Social Media Info 1:19:45 Poisons 1:20:08  Outro 1:57:50 Post-Credit 1:58:45 Bloopers 2:07:29 DON’T FORGET TO LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!
