In 5e the lance is a martial melee weapon with two properties: reach and special.As it lacks the finesse and light properties, characters use their Strength bonus. to calculate their bonus to attack with it, and cannot use it for two-weapon fighting without taking the Dual Wielder feat (PHB chapter 6). While it lacks the two-handed property, the specific special rules for the lance state that. You cant gain exhaustion due to extreme heat or cold, you can breath underwater, and take no fall damage. These apply regardless of the plane you are current on. In addition you cannot be harmed by any other specific planar effects, such as being moved through time, having your alignment or state of mind altered, being turned into raw chaotic. Walls, trees, creatures, and other obstacles can provide cover during combat, making a target more difficult to harm. A target can benefit from cover only when an attack or other effect originates on the opposite side of the cover. Oct 13, 2014 In order to be considered in these calculations, the damage output has to be the same for a 10 round combat, and the character must be capable of doing this at least twice per day. 1 minute buffs count, single rounds of spike damage are not considered. Bludgeoning: Blunt force attacks—hammers, Falling, constriction, and the like—deal bludgeoning damage. Cold: The Infernal chill radiating from an Ice Devil’s spear and the frigid blast of a white dragon’s breath deal cold damage. Fire: Red Dragons breathe fire.
In 5e, monk weapons can be specialized variants that nonetheless use the game statistics on PHB p. 149. The following table lists some traditional monk weapons and the weapon statistics to use with them.
