Funny meme but I think people( and DnD) fail to realize how dangerous a sling is. Just a regular one can cave in metal, let alone human bone.
Plus it didn’t kill Goliath but stunned him. David then cut his head off.
So, you know, those who fall by the sling die by the sword
Slings and whips where my earliest disappointments playing D&D. 1d4!? Really?
Most weapons can kill in one hit IRL if used right. In D&D, 1d4 is both the damage of a sling shot bullet and the HP of a commoner.
A commoner has 1d8 hitpoints. In 3.5 their hit die was d4, but it wasn't clear how many levels the average commoner had.
