D&D5e Q&A by Jeremy Crawford

@jaa0109 @NDevito1 The Resilient feat can be taken only once.

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

Elemental Adept is the only feat in the PH that you can take more than once. #DnD twitter.com/NDevito1/statu…

Nick DeVito @NDevito1

@JeremyECrawford is elemental adept the only feat you can take more than once?

@nirvanstryder The slowed target makes a saving throw at the end of each of its turns.

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The verbal component of a spell must be audible to work. How loud is audible? That's up to the DM. #DnD twitter.com/_Blackstorm/st…

_Blackstorm @_Blackstorm

@JeremyECrawford when I cast a spell does the verbal component has to be clearly audible or can I "whisper" the spell?

A flyer falls if its speed is reduced to 0 and it isn't hovering or being held aloft by magic (PH, 191). #DnD twitter.com/EdKruze/status…

Edward Krusling @EdKruze

@JeremyECrawford If I Incapacitate (Hypnotic Pattern) a flying creature unsupported by magic/hover, does it crash to the ground?

2015-09-25 18:16:04

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

It's up to the DM. As DM, I'd have those creatures act in initiative order. #DnD twitter.com/sebkha/status/…

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The Great Weapon Fighting feature is meant to benefit the damage rolls of the melee weapon you're wielding. #DnD twitter.com/MtS_Designer/s…

Matheus Ferreira @MtS_Designer

@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford - What is the RAW or RAI of GWF rerolling Smite, Hex and Hunter's Mark?

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The MM contains several elementals of CR 1/4, including the mud mephit. #DnD twitter.com/arthwollipot/s…

@arthwollipot@aus.social @arthwollipot

@JeremyECrawford 4th level spell Conjure Minor Elementals: There are no elementals in the MM of CR1/4. What's up with that?

2015-09-24 17:09:31

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

You get a free interaction with an object during either your move or your action (PH, 190). You choose which. #DnD twitter.com/TheCommanderDJ…

Dominik Jarco @TheSomaMyth

@jeremyecrawford Can you stow a weapon as part of a move and then draw another as part of an action in the same turn?

2015-09-24 13:52:35

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The intent is that the caster and up to 12 other creatures can partake of a heroes' feast. #DnD twitter.com/KarlDotenswine…

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

Passive Int. (Investigation) rarely applies. If it does, it uses the normal rules for passive checks (PH, 175). #DnD twitter.com/Giolon/status/…

Giolon @Giolon

@JeremyECrawford Observant Feat says +5 to passive Perception and passive Investigation. What is passive Investigation?

2015-09-24 09:13:47

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

As DM, I'd allow it, as long as the water wasn't occupied by a creature. The spell isn't meant to harm. #DnD twitter.com/BrailSays/stat…

Brail @BrailSays

@JeremyECrawford Could you use fabricate to turn water into ice?

2015-09-24 02:48:06

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

If you use the barbarian's Reckless Attack, all attack rolls have advantage against you until your next turn. #DnD twitter.com/jaa0109/status…

John Appleton @jaa0109

@JeremyECrawford for reckless attack, do you grant advantage to all enemies or only the target of your attack?

2015-09-23 07:24:50

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

There's no rule for sleep deprivation. A house rule: 1 level of exhaustion per day w/ less than 5 hrs of sleep. #DnD twitter.com/Aguinaldo_Lich…

Aguinaldo Silvestre @Aguinaldo_Lich

@JeremyECrawford What are the rules of sleep deprivation? Con test? And DC is? What are the penalties involved? Damn paranoid rogues! >_<

2015-09-23 11:08:32

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

@ReubenFontana Yes.

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

Concentration is required when casting any spell, including a ritual version, for longer than 1 action. #DnD twitter.com/evilgeniusent/…

Evil Genius @EvilGeniusEnt

@JeremyECrawford Does casting a spell as a ritual require concentration if the spell doesn't normally require it?

2015-10-01 17:43:11

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

I wouldn't. A tiefling is a humanoid, not a fiend, and therefore escapes the notice of Divine Sense. #DnD twitter.com/reapercdn/stat…

Lino Ciaralli @ReaperCDN

@JeremyECrawford Question about 5e: Would you allow a Paladin's Divine Sense to register Tieflings due to their infernal heritage?

2015-10-01 08:53:29

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

What's the 1st rule of Sage Advice? The DM—not the rulebooks or the sage—is the game's adjudicator. The 2nd rule? Don't forget the 1st. #DnD

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

There's no rule that a paladin must serve a deity. But a DM might require it, depending on the world used. #DnD twitter.com/mattdomville/s…

Matt Domville @mattdomville

@JeremyECrawford Do paladins have to choose a deity? Is following a philosophy or ideal acceptable?

2015-09-26 02:31:13

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

That's correct. Advantage and disadvantage nullify each other. #DnD twitter.com/Shippendale/st…

Simon @Shippendale

@JeremyECrawford Does the unconscious condition merely cancel out the disadvantage on a ranged attack regarding a target being prone?

2015-09-19 04:41:52

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The misty step spell expends none of the caster's speed. #DnD twitter.com/enrikisinger/s…

Enrique Delgado Torr @enrikisinger

@JeremyECrawford Does Misty Step conserve the initial speed of the wizard before casting it? Or does the wizard appear with 0 speed?

2015-09-20 06:41:53

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

A net attack usually does have disadvantage because of its range. #DnD twitter.com/MichaelHall858…

Michael Hall @MichaelHall8585

@JeremyECrawford Running a game where bad guys are using nets. Am I reading right that attacks with a net are always at disadvantage?

2015-09-20 06:54:40

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The wizard's Sculpt Spells works only with evocation spells, including ones gained from other classes. #DnD twitter.com/stevey/status/…

Steve @stevey

@JeremyECrawford Only "Evocation" labelled spells qualify for Sculpt Spells (PH, 117) — or any?

2015-09-25 22:02:39

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

You make a save vs. the spell. Fail: you're slowed till the caster's concentration ends or your later save succeeds. twitter.com/nirvanstryder/…

Ash @Ash2Ash0

@JeremyECrawford Slow spell wording confusing. Written as saving throws initially & once more than spell lasts for duration.

2015-09-25 11:30:17

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The heroes' feast spell grants immunity to poison in any form—damage and the condition. #DnD twitter.com/slyflourish/st…

SlyFlourish.com @SlyFlourish

.@JeremyECrawford does the Heroes Frast spell grant immunity to poison damage or just the poison condition? #dnd
