Sneak attack on undeads

Hi all

NNever played the 5th ed, but I remember that undead creatures were immune to sneak attack and had DR from piercing and slashing damage. My thief is harvesting skeletons with his shortbow, hiding and with advantage, so it's a bug or the rules? 

Thanks all

In 5e if a specific creature doesn't have immunity against a sneak attack they work fine. Undead don't have racial immunity anymore.

And skeletons aren’t Resistant to Piercing or Slashing damage in this edition.  But they are Vulnerable to Bludgeoning, so bashing them with your mace or warhammer is still the better option.  Huzzah! 🥳
