Natural weapons are not as powerful as magic weapons, but they can still do damage if you know how to use them correctly. The most effective damage buffs are size increases and the enlarge person feat. These two feats both increase the size of the user, which adds one die to natural attacks. The other good damage buffs are Transformation and Angelic Aspect. Shapes also do a lot of damage because they are large.

Unarmed strikes
The Unarmed Strike is a melee weapon attack that deals damage equal to your character’s Strength modifier. The unarmed strike does not gain any additional damage from critical hits, and it is the least effective weapon to use without character building. Also, it lacks any special properties. You cannot use it in combination with other weapons, such as weapons that have finesse. Here are some tips for using unarmed strikes.
The first rule of unarmed strikes is that they can only be used when you do not have a weapon equipped. In previous editions, unarmed strikes were a reliable way to deal “subdual damage.” When you used a normal weapon to knock out a foe, you would incur a huge penalty. But in D&D 5e, you can use any weapon you have to knock your enemy unconscious, without incurring a penalty for attacking.
Light weapons
In 5th Edition, light weapons are defined as those which are smaller than the creature that uses them. These include natural weapons and unarmed strikes. These weapons are used only once and can only be wielded by a single creature. These weapons add 1x Strength and Intelligence modifiers to damage, and they also reduce the penalty to attack by 2. The following table lists some examples of light weapons for medium creatures.
Throwing Weapons. Throwing weapons are any weapon which uses a throw action. These include daggers, clubs, shortspears, spears, darts, nets, light hammers, tridents, and shuriken. The wielder can throw any of these weapons, and the weapon does not have to be specially designed to do so. The damage done by a throwing weapon is calculated using the wielder’s Strength modifier. When throwing a light weapon, the wielder takes a standard action to throw it, but two-handed weapons require a full-round action to throw.
Sting attacks
Many creatures have natural weapons. These weapons are not only lethal but also offer a threat of critical hits. When a creature uses a natural weapon on a successful critical hit, its damage is doubled. A creature can have more than one natural weapon, which is called a primary weapon. If a creature has multiple natural weapons, they may only use one of these types each round. While most creatures have only one natural weapon, some can use several.
There are two types of natural weapons: slashing and stinging. A creature with a sting attack deals poison damage. A creature with sharp appendages can make slashing or piercing attacks using these. Another type of natural weapon is a slam attack. A creature with several arms can use each arm to make a slam attack. Sting attacks are more potent than other types of natural weapons.
Silver weapons
Silvered Weapons are nonmagical, silver-plated weapons and ammunition. They are vulnerable to the same attacks as nonmagical weapons, except against monsters that have immunity to silver. Silvered weapons and ammunition can be purchased in some stores, or looted from monsters. A lance, for example, has a disadvantage when attacking within 5 feet of the target, and requires two hands to use while riding.
In the table, the cost of each weapon is given in either gold or silver pieces. It also shows the cost of any miscellaneous gear that comes with it. Large versions of a weapon cost twice as much as its Small counterpart. Damage columns indicate the damage the weapon deals on a successful hit. Small weapons are listed in a column labeled “Dmg (S)” while Medium weapons are labeled “Dmg (M)”. Double-wielding weapons have two damage ranges. The second damage figure represents an extra attack with the weapon.
Lance weapons
A lance requires two hands to wield, so it is not always practical for riders. Lance weapons are considered natural weapons in 5E, but they require special skills to wield effectively. They can be specialized in order to perform specific tasks, such as slashing and piercing. There are several ways to customize a lance for combat, including the ability to use your weapon’s specialization.
Some examples of specialized spears are aklys, bardiche, broken-back seax, butterfly sword, and kerambit. A number of other spears are also natural weapons, such as elven branched spear, orc double axe, katar, and swordbreaker dagger. The chef has several tools, including a combat spatula, man tong, and tiger fork.
Tabaxi claws
While the tabaxi are not technically considered weapons, they do count as one of the various types of natural weapons. If you make an attack with your Tabaxi claws, you will count this attack as a weapon attack. They can also be used with the Monk’s Martial Arts feature. This article will discuss the differences between these two types of weapons. It will also explain why the Tabaxi claw is unique.
While tabaxi are solitary creatures, they have developed techniques that enable them to remain unnoticed, which allow them to be deadly to their prey. Their vast knowledge of jungle flora has also made them a fantastically useful class. These creatures also possess a lot of other useful knowledge, including how to create poisons and salves. They were also contacted by other intelligent races and were found to be incredibly powerful. These advanced techniques helped them become masters of surprise attacks.
