Your bolt of pure magic impacts with the hook horror at speed.
Force is a somewhat indescribable damage type that’s given to magical projectiles and weapons. Spiritual weapon and eldritch blast are common examples.
Force is often described as the best DnD damage type, and while that honorific is largely going to depend on what you’re fighting and how many dice you’re rolling, there’s no denying that it is effective. There are no creatures that are resistant to force damage, not one. And only one monster, the Helmed Horror is immune. If a monster doesn’t seem to be taking enough damage from your regular spells, it’s time to use the force.
