@obiwan_886(Advantage/Disadvantage)
Should I grant my player’s advantage on using “the high ground” or when one is in flight? No rule requires this.

Would a reincarnation spell be effective if the creature was brought back as a wight?
@JeremyECrawford would a reincarnation spell be effective if the creature was brought back as a wight? Or is the soul the devourers to use?

The reincarnate spell targets a dead humanoid. If you're undead, your creature type has changed. You're not a humanoid. #DnD https://t.co/tXjh04Z17O

Does knocking a creature climbing, cause it to Fall or land Prone?
@JeremyECrawford Mike chimed in ago, but asking 1 more time, does knocking a creature climbing with clb spd, cause it to Fall or land Prone?
— Jason Portt (@GrantsHero) February 28, 2017
No general rule causes a climbing creature to fall if knocked prone. As DM, I'd look at the environment and decide. #DnD https://t.co/xgYIdSYOzQ

Are Potions of Healing Magic or Mundane items?
@JeremyECrawford Are Potions of Healing Magic or Mundane items in terms of 5e crafting?
— tony (@perception101) December 6, 2016
A potion of healing is magical. See the first sentence of its description (PH, 153). #DnD https://t.co/2615ihJoDK
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 6, 2016
@Mazoshi1987But that means only casters can create them even though phb states you can make them with a herbalist kit? I'm curious, where do you interpret the PH saying that an herbalism kit gives you the ability to make a potion of healing?
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 6, 2016
@perception101 @Mazoshi1987but I guess you’re going to say, required, but not sufficient – which clears up a LOT of confusion 🙂 Bingo. The kit is required but not sufficient.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 6, 2016
@perception101 @Mazoshi1987 Cool, thanks. Funny what you can read into a single sentence (along with half of reddit it seems). There are many phantom rules on the loose online.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 6, 2016
@perception101 @Mazoshi1987aye, but the flipside is we can now clear stuff up in real time! Appreciate you taking the time for this. My pleasure!

@JeremyECrawford WAit, shit, I just got around to checking the DMG. Kinda sad that Healing Potions are always made at a loss.
— Torbjørn Brekke (@Tobbun) December 8, 2016
As of the DMG errata, potions and other consumable magic items cost half as much to make: https://t.co/kuNYh24QEY #DnD https://t.co/8BE2q1RBfJ

If a creature is blind beyond blindsight radius, do ranged attacks receive advantage?
@rderekpIf a creature is blind beyond blindsight radius, do ranged attacks receive advantage to hit it from beyond that radius? Yes.

Could Scorching Ray trigger 3 Hex?
@JeremyECrawford looking back through this, Magic Missile hits automatically so its not an 'attack', but could Scorching Ray trigger 3 Hex?
— Matt Abernathy (@Matt_Abernathy) December 8, 2016
Scorching ray involves attacks that can hit. Hex is triggered whenever you hit its target with an attack. The two spells work together. #DnD https://t.co/khayZUY73K

Suppose I Hide in combat and I’m not found…
@JeremyECrawford Suppose I Hide in combat and I'm not found. On my next turn, I Hide again to remain hidden. Do I keep my previous roll?
— Armando Doval (@armando_doval) March 27, 2017
When you make a Dexterity (Stealth) check and hide, you use the same check result until you're no longer hidden. #DnD https://t.co/TTcP80FjlH
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 27, 2017
@HarvDWilliamson a similar note, if you hide whilst invisible do the enemy get disadvantage on their passive perception? No.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 27, 2017
@armando_doval Does that mean if I get advantage from Supreme Sneak on turn 1, I don’t have to limit my movement on turn 2? That's correct.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 27, 2017
@JeremyECrawford Very interesting! Didn't expect that. Last question: if 1 creature finds me, does that mean I'm no longer hidden from all other creatures?
— Armando Doval (@armando_doval) March 27, 2017
The rules on hiding specify that your Dexterity (Stealth) check is valid until you're discovered or you stop hiding (see PH, 177). #DnD https://t.co/s7hZRgrSdx

A stat cannot be reduced below 1
@JeremyECrawford So that definitively means a stat cannot be reduced below 1… i.e. 0 Constitution = Death?
— Jason Portt (@GrantsHero) January 30, 2017
An exceptional ability, such as an intellect devourer's Devour Intellect, can reduce a score to 0, and it says what the result is. #DnD https://t.co/9mggJbMiZW
