@JeremyECrawford With the Pact of the Blade + Improved Pact Weapon, I can conjure a Longbow and use that for Eldritch Blast. Since I'd be using that weapon to make attacks, would that allow for Eldritch Smite during Eldritch Blast? Only asking since it doesn't say weapon attack.

Using a weapon as a material component for a spell, including as a spellcasting focus, doesn't count as attacking with that weapon, unless the spell explicitly says you attack with it. #DnD https://t.co/uXo9vWc1Rd

Weapon of the war mage "used" by arcane trickster to get sneak attack on a spell attack? (Sneak attack uses weird verbiage)

Using a weapon as a spellcasting focus doesn't count as attacking with the weapon. You're channeling magic through the weapon; you're not striking with it. #DnD https://t.co/OwUgJ9pbs0
