funny D&D shit

Never trust a used weapon salesman
Despite the really cool part about the ability not allowing a saving throw, that's just clever advertising intended to distract you from the fact that the complete destruction effect of a Mace of Smiting only functions when you deal a critical hit to a construct - which are not subject to the effects of critical hits.

Mad cat!
A house cat, accoring to the MM, can deal 3 damage with two claws and a bite. (Minimum damage is 1 HP for an attack.) And a peasant has 1d4 HP. So don't tick off kitty!

This always works in the movies
The MM says that staking a vampire kills them, but there are no called shot rules and undead aren't subject to coup-de-grace. So you can't actually stake them.

You backwoods Dwarves still dig, what ever for?
Wall of Iron produces real iron as an instant spell (so it can't be dispelled and is non-magical) and by the price guidelines on PHB 96 & 114 and the Avaibility guidelines on DMG 137, you can hire a wizard to cast a spell that produces roughly 1800 gp worth of iron for only 500 gp in any small town or larger settlement. And yet iron mining supposedly exists in the game world.

Why yes, I did bring weapons for the entire army
Since the sling has both cost 0 and weight 0, and you can generally find ordinary stones for free, there is no mechanical reason not to carry a few million around in case you need to arm a peasant uprising.

it is still quite a bad deal, jo ar tiem ieročiem var kritikāļot tikai konstruktus
