What is heavy armor master 5e?

Heavy Armor Master is a feat in the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons that provides additional benefits for characters who wear heavy armor. When a character with this feat wears heavy armor, they gain three benefits:

• The character's armor class is increased by 1. • The character gains resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from non-magical weapons. • The character can reduce incoming damage from non-magical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing attacks by 3 points.

This feat is particularly useful for characters who engage in melee combat often and may take a lot of damage from weapons. It can also provide some protection against common damage types that many creatures have resistance or immunity to, such as piercing damage from a vampire's bite or slashing damage from a werewolf's claws. It requires proficiency with heavy armor to take, so it is often chosen by characters like fighters, paladins, and other martial classes who have access to heavy armor.
