@JeremyECrawford With so many options using a bonus action to gain an extra attack, isn't a Scimitar of Speed a bit…redundant?

If a magic item isn't great for you, it's probably great for one of your friends! #DnD https://t.co/aSVZVDBz4t

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Even the carbuncle is less ridiculous, and that's just an armadillo with a gem in its head!

As a person who's 1/64th armadillo, I resent that remark. https://t.co/arMi2f3xY6

@JeremyECrawford @mikemearls What happens when I bake and eat a Goodberry pie?

Deliciousness, with a side of delivering the total healing of the berries used. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/vjdeB3kXys

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Lycanthropy how long does the curse take to cause the person to become a Lycanthrope in 5th ed pic.twitter.com/2IpLAla9q4

The MONSTER MANUAL answers this question, but the DM can make tweaks based on his or her own campaign. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/mFxGFW3UUD

@ChrisPerkinsDnD TI can not see from the excerpt how long the curse takes to cause them to become lycanthropes pic.twitter.com/HejTUUg6fU

The stat block text states that anyone who fails the saving throw is cursed (i.e., a lycanthrope). #WOTCstaff https://t.co/1NUPNZbDiX
— (((Chris Perkins))) (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) August 23, 2016
@wintersrage @ChrisPerkinsDnD my interpretation is that the Curse is immediate but first change comes at next full moon
— Nicholas (@ibluewizard) August 23, 2016
Yes, that is exactly what the MM text says. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/urmauWxfDL

@ChrisPerkinsDnD @wintersrage follow up: can a gnome be a lycanthrope?
— Rob M. (@RobJamesMorgan) August 23, 2016
Gnomes are humanoids, so yes. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/eHTHqdHmhT

@ChrisPerkinsDnD how old were you when you first started playing D&D
— Christopher Yaney (@Christo37522708) August 30, 2016
I started playing when I was 10 years old. https://t.co/xr8fXdlHC2

@ChrisPerkinsDnD When you started D&D, did you begin as a DM or a player?
— Chris Beason (@Chris_beason1) August 31, 2016
When I first started, I was the DM, and my next-door neighbor was the only player. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/RMmj9vqKmC

@bbeaulieu Secret for me: once a week (same day, if you can manage it), relax, make tea/your fave, and take stock. Review where you are, …
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 25, 2016
@bbeaulieu …look at a calendar to check deadlines, take a look at back burners to see if any need to be shuffled, then take stock of …
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 25, 2016
@bbeaulieu …those 3 front burners. This is NOT a stressor, this is to look over what you've done, make notes to self, re-read any bits …

@bbeaulieu …you're pleased with. Go for a walk, even if it's just around the yard, then back to work. Works wonders. :}

Random TRPG design ethos I follow: Avoid creating mechanics for game elements that could be presented as DM advice. #WOTCstaff
— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 16, 2016
@Daeva001I feel like this is along the lines of “don’t write rules that the players will use to beat the DM upside the head with,” no? very much so! #wotcstaff
— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 16, 2016
@tabletopterrorsCan you share the example you had in mind when this advice sprang to mind? = ) hit that in a follow-up tweet – DMG advice on handling interaction
— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 17, 2016
Example: Interaction from the DMG. Not a system, but advice on how to apply core rules to social stuff. #wotcstaff https://t.co/7TE6mcxZVL
— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 16, 2016
@YYZhed So: “If it can be written as DM advice, do so. Otherwise, you may need to write mechanics for it”?
correct – if you want it to happen in the game, you have to do one of those two things— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 16, 2016
