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.

Features, spells and other game effects may grant these properties for a single damage type, several related types or even (rarely) all types of damage. | Features, spells and other game effects may grant these properties for a single damage type, several related types or even (rarely) all types of damage. | ||
Vulnerability, resistance, and immunity can apply to non-magical sources of damage, magical sources of damage, or both. Generally, vulnerability and immunity apply to both, although exceptions exist. Magical sources of damage include spells, and weapons that are of uncommon rarity or above. | |||

{{InfoBlob | ''Vulnerability'' means the total damage taken from a type of damage is {{em|doubled}}. When inspecting an entity, vulnerability is indicated by a downwards red arrow on the corresponding element. The game doesn't seem to include any creatures that have vulnerability only to non-magical or only to magical sources of damage. | ||

''Resistance'' means the total damage taken from a type of damage is {{em|halved}}. When inspecting an entity, resistance is indicated by an upwards blue and/or grey arrow on the corresponding element. Grey indicates that non-magical sources of damage are reduced, and blue indicates that magical sources of damage are reduced. | ''Resistance'' means the total damage taken from a type of damage is {{em|halved}}.

{{InfoBlob | ''Immunity'' means the total damage taken from a type of damage is {{em|reduced to 0}}. This means the creature takes no damage of that type, even if another effect applies vulnerability to the same type. When inspecting an entity, immunity is indicated by a yellow outline around the shield of the corresponding element. In some rare cases, the immunity may apply only to non-magical sources of damage, in which case the outline is grey instead of yellow. | ||
