There's no reason you have to treat a failed attack roll as a miss instead of a hit that does no damage.

- quaunaut 3y agoYeah, this complaint is nonsense. It mechanically nullifies the damage and we colloquially call it a 'miss' because it applies whether someone has armor or not, but how to interpret that depends on the situation. For example, an Arcane Trickster throwing up a reaction 'shield' spell doesn't cause the hit to miss either, it just was blocked(as it added 5 to AC).
