Does Rage half all damage?

In Dungeons & Dragons 5e, a Barbarian's Rage does not halve all damage; it grants resistance (halves) only to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, whether from mundane or magical sources, but not other types like fire, cold, or psychic damage, unless a specific subclass feature (like Bear Totem) adds more resistances, according to sources. The resistance applies to the entire damage amount, not just parts of it, but elemental damage added to a weapon still hits fully unless another ability applies.

However, they can use spell-like abilities (like a Path of the Totem Warrior's spirit totems or some magic item effects that don't need concentration/command words) and use abilities from other classes (like a Cleric's Channel Divinity or a Monk's Ki) because those aren't considered casting spells.
