@SageAdviceDnD @JeremyECrawford can the weapon from the shadow blade spell be chosen as a kensei weapon? The spell says the blade counts as a simple melee weapon. I am a bit confused and am wondering if it works. #DnD

The Path of the Kensei feature says which weapons qualify as kensei weapons. The shadow blade meets the qualifications. #DnD https://t.co/Ydh4dK7kQx
