Now I'm not saying that pistols aren't deadly. And all the internal organs in it's very wide, very deep, path would be randomized and compromised. But upscale that pig and the damage would -still- be significant even if the sword didn't manage to pass through the bones. You could of course argue that that was a fairly small pig and thus the sword could easily pass through it. The third sets it spinning and the fourth cuts through, again.Ĭompare that to a single hole running through your torso. It cuts -through- that pig on the first strike. It would not be out of place in most D&D campaign settings. Roughly the same shape as a scimitar, it's got a slightly weighted tip to increase percussive force. Take a look at this video if you can/care to (TW: Dead Animal, Fake Blood, Violence) With the appropriate training, a sword will completely eradicate your ability to have intestines that remain both inside your body and intact. At least when compared to something like a Pistol.ĭepending on your ammo type a gun is going to put a fairly small hole in the front of your target and a moderately larger hole out of the back of your target with a relatively straight line between the two. This is because a Sword catastrophically randomizes a very large area of the human body on each strike. But if you don't strike something vital they will STILL DIE IN VERY SHORT ORDER. If you hit something vital with a sword, your target will -also- die in very short order. If you hit something vital, death is assured in fairly short order, and if you don't hit something vital there's a decent shot the person will still bleed out over the course of the next hour or two, depending on their activity during that time and lack of medical care. Yeah, a bullet can be really effective at killing a person by catastrophically randomizing a narrow line through their body.
A longsword deals 1d8 damage, 1d10 if you hold it with both hands.īut if you've ever seen what a sword can -do- to a human body, you know that the damage difference is incomparable! So a Flintlock Pistol in 5e D&D deals 1d10 damage.
