Quick question for the group. There are several monsters who have notations of resistances/immunities to certain types of damages.
There is:
bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks. This one is obvious, if your weapon attack is not magical, it deals half damage or no damage.
Then there is this one:
bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks not made with silvered weapons. Here, is the intent that your weapon is magical and Silvered? And if not, the damage dealt is only half or no damage?
And lastly:
bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks not made with adamantine weapons. Again, if it is not a magical weapon made of adamantine it only deals half damage or no damage?
bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks not made with silvered weapons.
This means either magic or silvered weapons will bypass the resistance or immunity. The weapon doesn't have to be both
