TOPIC: Don't understand how stats work apparently

Fiddy wrote: One problem I've seen over the years (that has been improving but still pops up occasionally) are times when damage is probably supposed to be Eldritch and gets described by a DM as something like "special cold" damage. I'm not saying that's what happened here, but it is something that can contribute to the overall confusion. This has much improved, but I still run into it from time to time.

Hm. The simple solution would seem to be, "an Eldritch Cold," etc.
