I'm going to call shenanigans. Every race has morning breath. That's not Dragonborn specific. ;)

How is that any different than having to reference the PHB for spells that monsters with spellcasting have? Or reference the PHB so the monsters can engage in combat? Or to know how to run resistances? The MMs have never been completely self-contained with regard to the information necessary...

Stop deliberately misstating my words. I never claimed that only the 0 hit point strike does actual damage. Not once. Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Give this man a kewpie doll! Which is why what I said covered stingers. :rolleyes: Without that "typically" poisonous(and other exceptions)...

Or they aren't warlike conquerors. If you assume that the elves aren't going to go on the offensive and take over the world, dragonborn are few in number, etc., it still works out fine for them to have the same racial traits as the PCs. 5.5e changed elves so that they can learn new cantrips on...

Ignore it all you like, it's what the rules say. It's called context. It helps if you can recognize it. "you typically show no signs of injury. When you drop below half your hit point maximum , you show signs of wear" Context is your friend. You can play internet lawyer with your "Aha! I...

First off, I said that I said it twice and wouldn't say it a third time. Second, in the first quote I mentioned stingers and shouldn't have had to mention it again. Just quoting the actual quote says EXACTLY what he asked for. A reason why stingers worked. If he can't be bothered to try and...

Twice I've quoted where it says very clearly that typically you show no signs before 50%. That's there so that stingers and such will still inflict poison, which I stated straight out the first time I quoted it.

I'm not linking it a third time. If you can't see it the first two times, I'm not wasting my time on a third.

Yes. What about them? Just like I said, people liked them and others disliked them. I'm really not sure why they haven't been put into 5e or 5.5e yet.

It says PCs get the same traits as the rest of the race, not that they get different traits. NPCs and PCs are both part of the same race, so they all get the same traits. While NPCs and PCs don't follow the same set-up for creation, they still follow the same rules for racial abilities. An...

:rolleyes: Posted it twice. Go back and re-read some.

Provide me a citation saying "ECMO3 is right" and I will concede. :rolleyes: What I provided was sufficient. I'm not going to play your silly game of finding the exact wording you choose to put down or else you're right.

This is what I mean by you just reading to argue and not understand. And I quote..........................again! "you show signs of wear, such as cuts and bruises." Do you understand what "such as" means? And I quote.......................again! "An attack that reduces you to 0 hit points...

The mind flayer would cause no physical damage. The dragon will not even hit the PC until half hit points or lower, and won't directly strike until 0. Same with guiding bolt. It misses until half hit points, doing luck/skill/etc. damage, then causes minor things until 0. I quoted it. Don't...

An army of high elves with firebolt and other offensive cantrip would probably destroy them.
