Path of the Elemental Lord

You find out how to infuse your weapons to deal different types of damage than is natural.

Elemental Aura

Starting at 3rd level, you emanate an elemental aura while you rage. Your weapons can deal damage of whichever element you choose, and you become resistant to that type. You also ignore resistances to the damage type you have active, and automatically know if the creature you attack has immunity to your elemental attacks on a hit.

Your aura has an effect on your weapons that activates when you enter your rage. Choose fire, acid or poison. Your aura’s effect depends on that chosen element, as detailed below. You can change your element choice whenever you take a long rest.
