 == Target Strike ==
-A '''target strike''' is a special type of attack that aims to deal maximum damage.  Just before making an attack roll with a [[weapon]] or an [[unarmed strike]], you can make a target strike either by expending 2 [[stamina points]] (if you have any), or by taking [[disadvantage]] on the attack roll.  You cannot make a target strike if the attack roll would have disadvantage anyway.

 A target strike aims for wherever the target is most vulnerable, such as gaps in a warrior's armor, or the exposed eye of a huge monster. This kind of called shot maximizes the damage dice rolled on a hit (e.g., treat 1d8 as simply 8), including any extra dice rolled as part of a [[critical hit]] or from other sources. Your narrator may enable alternate or additional effects for a target strike.

−	~~===~~Damage Types~~===~~	+	{{:Damage Types}}
−	Different attacks, damaging spells, and other harmful effects deal different types of damage. Damage types have no rules of their own, but other rules, such as [[damage resistance]], rely on the types. The damage types follow, with examples to help a DM assign a damage type to a new effect.
−
−	* '''''Acid.''''' The corrosive spray of {{C\|Silver Lizalfos}} spit and the dissolving enzymes secreted by some [[ooze]]s deal acid damage.
−	* '''''Bludgeoning.''''' Blunt force attacks—[[hammer]]s, [[falling]], constriction, and the like—deal bludgeoning damage.
−	* '''''Cold.''''' The infernal chill radiating from a {{C\|Chilfos}}' spear and the frigid blast of a {{C\|Blizzga}}’s breath deal cold damage.
−	* '''''Fire.''''' [[Gleeok]]s and {{C\|Volvagia}}s breathe fire, and many [[spells]] conjure flames to deal fire damage.
−	* '''''Force.''''' Force is pure magical energy focused into a damaging form. The magic of [[technomancer]]s and [[Sheikah]] often deal force damage, including the beams of [[Guardian stalker (creature)\|guardian stalkers]].
−	* '''''Lightning.''''' Electrical effects, lightning breath, and several [[spell]]s deal lightning damage.
−	* '''''Necrotic.''''' Necrotic damage, dealt by certain [[undead]] and a spell such as {{Spell\|chill touch}}~~, withers matter and even the soul.~~
−	* '''''Piercing.''''' Puncturing and impaling attacks, including [[spear]]s and monsters’ bites, deal piercing damage.
−	* '''''Poison.''''' Venomous stings and toxic gas deal poison damage.
−	* '''''Psychic.''''' Mental abilities deal psychic damage. Exceedingly few creatures in Hyrule can attack the mind with psychic damage.
−	* '''''Radiant.''''' Radiant damage, dealt by some [[sage]] spells and some deity-derived powers, sears the flesh like fire and overloads the spirit with power.
−	* '''''Slashing.''''' Swords, axes, and monsters’ claws deal slashing damage.
−	* '''''Thunder.''''' A concussive explosion, such as from a [[bomb (item)\|bomb's]] detonation, deals thunder damage.

 When you take the '''Dash''' action, you gain extra movement for the current turn. The increase equals your speed, after applying any modifiers. With a speed of 30 feet, for example, you can move up to 60 feet on your turn if you dash. Any increase or decrease to your speed changes this additional movement by the same amount. If your speed of 30 feet is reduced to 15 feet, for instance, you can move up to 30 feet this turn if you dash.
-If you Dash multiple twice on the same turn (such as with an [[opportunist]]'s cunning action), each additional Dash increases your movement by your speed.  Dashing twice triples your movement, for example, and Dashing thrice would quadruple your movement.

 ===Bonus Actions===
-Various [[class]] features, [[spells]], [[magic items]], and other abilities let you take an additional action on your turn called a bonus action. The Cunning Action feature, for example, allows an [[opportunist]] to take a bonus action. You can take a bonus action only when a special ability, spell, or other feature of the game states that you can do something as a bonus action. You otherwise don’t have a bonus action to take. You can take only one bonus action on your turn, so you must choose which bonus action to use when you have more than one available. You choose when to take a bonus action during your turn, unless the bonus action’s timing is specified, and anything that deprives you of your ability to take actions also prevents you from taking a bonus action.

 ===Squeezing into a Smaller Space===
 A creature can squeeze through a space that is large enough for a creature one size smaller than it. Thus, a Large creature can squeeze through a passage that’s only 5 feet wide. While squeezing through a space, a creature must spend 1 extra foot for every foot it moves there, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls and {{dex}} saving throws. Attack rolls against the creature have advantage while it’s in the smaller space.
