Yes, you can take the opportunity attack and thereby stop readying. #DnD twitter.com/ameron_dm/stat…

Ameron (Derek Myers) @ameron_dm

@JeremyECrawford I have a readied action. Can I stop readying to take an opp attack? Or is ready a full turn commitment?

Rolling a 1 on an ability check or a save is not an automatic failure. A 1 is an automatic miss for an attack. twitter.com/soupkills/stat…

Chris Cotter is leaving for @soupkills@mas.to @soupkills

@JeremyECrawford is a 1 on an ability check not an instafail?

@calebrus44 That's correct.

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

Ability checks don't crit. Attack rolls do. #DnD twitter.com/rugholm86/stat…

René Rugholm @Rugholm86

@JeremyECrawford @AntarianRanger Question: Critical on ability checks; Ex. on a grapple attempt, does critical win or the highest number?

@_FoxyBoxes_ This is a gray area, for sure. As DM, I err on the side of generosity and would let natural armor work with Unarmored Defense.

The intent is that your base score, not a temporary score, has to meet a multiclassing prerequisite. #DnD twitter.com/kam2112/status…

@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford would a temporary stat bump fulfill a multi-class pre-req or does the base score have to meet the #

If the effect of a spell becomes permanent, it can be dispelled, unless its description says otherwise. twitter.com/calebrus44/sta…

calebrus44 @calebrus44

@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford Can permanent magical effects be dispelled? Or are they no longer considered magical effects once permanent?

In an AC calculation, natural armor takes the place of armor, and you can pair a shield with it. twitter.com/_FoxyBoxes_/st…

Yunru @YunruWithTopHat

@JeremyECrawford Natural armor is listed as an AC bonus because it is an AC bonus yes? It works the same way as a shirld does?

The intent is no. The Tough feat affects a druid's hp, which are replaced by the beast's hp while using Wild Shape. twitter.com/Michael7360482…

Michael @Michael73604823

@JeremyECrawford Class features and feats sometimes affect a shapechanged Moon Druid, does the Tough feat have an affect while shifting?

Subtle Spell is meant to protect a spell w/o material components from counterspell, since you can't see the casting. twitter.com/GroudonGuru/st…

"Up to X" does mean a number equal to or less than X. twitter.com/brailsays/stat…

Brail @BrailSays

@JeremyECrawford Speaking of 'up to' spells,Tidal Wave,'Up to' amount of water.Player use it to summon 5ft of water instead of 100+?

A melee attack—even one in a spell—can knock out a creature (PH, 198). A range of touch doesn't mean melee attack. twitter.com/imnotasnowflak…

Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford

The description of the ring of invisibility specifies what breaks its invisibility (DMG, 191). twitter.com/NersesMalakjan…

Nerses Malakjan @NersesMalakjan

@JeremyECrawford Does Ring of Invisibility give Regular (lv2) or Greater (lv4) Invisibility? (AKA does it break on cast/attack/hit)
