In KoD Chapter 5 it lists electrical storms as a hazard. Its lists everything from the save DC to the percentage of a PC being hit, but nothing about the actual damage dealt if they are struck by a bolt.

Whats the damage?


I think I'll start to post any and all KoD question under this thread instead of starting a thread with a title specific to the question.

1d10 eight-sided dice of electricity damage.

Roll a d10, then roll that many d8s and add them up.

This is all in the Dungeon Master's Guide, under weather effects (thunderstorms).

Strange... I thought energy types were confined to specific die types of damage. Electricity and fire using d6' for example. Or do I have my head backwards with a different system?

Delayed Blast Fireball does d8s.

Probably. No such rule exists. Otherwise you'd run into problems with burning hands too.

Thanks Thrune and Cam! I'm just a little whizzed in the head today...

Peace. :D
