These properties do not stack - their effect is the same even if multiple sources grant the property, whether for the same damage type or multiple ones that could apply. If a creature has both vulnerability and resistance against a source of damage, they effectively cancel each other out and the creature takes damage as if it had neither. Neither vulnerability or resistance affect immunity. | These properties do not stack - their effect is the same even if multiple sources grant the property, whether for the same damage type or multiple ones that could apply.
