These properties do not stack - their effect is the same even if multiple sources grant the property for the same damage type. If a creature has both vulnerability and resistance, they effectively cancel each other out and the creature takes damage as if it had neither. | 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. | ||
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. | ||

''Immunity'' means the total damage taken from a type of damage is {{em|reduced to 0}}. When inspecting an entity, immunity is indicated by a yellow outline around the shield of the corresponding element. | ''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.
