@mikemearls quick question, how would an eldritch knight work with sword and shield?

This is actually a fairly thorny question. IMC, I just let it ride – swap weapon and focus as part of casting. https://t.co/oLJpkq9hMQ

@TrainerJodie @kam2112 technically, the War Caster Feat would make that work fine. I kind of though that was what the feat was for? that's 1 of few issues. tracking what stuff is in which hand was a bigger issue for people than the rules anticipated

It makes NO sense that a person with barkskin can’t benefit from a shield.

@AardvarkBlue Barkskin puts no limitation on what can contribute to your AC. It sets a minimum: your AC will be at least 16 no matter what.

@FreeXenon @JeremyECrawfordRanger 4/Wizard 1 with 2nd level spell slots. I take Wizard 2. Can I learn 2 second-level Wizard spells? no – that's based on class level, not overall level

@mikemearls @JeremyECrawfordCan anyone hide in a “lightly obscured area”, or only those with the Skulker feat, and Mask of the Wild?1of2 If yes, how does Skulker feat & Mask of the Wild differ with the ability to hide in "light obscurement"? 2of2

@oilpainting71 @JeremyECrawford believe the answer is no – you cannot do that without a special ability

@mikemearls Do gelatinous cubes breath? PCs befriended sentient gelatinous cube, wondering if they can stuff him in bag of holding.

I don't really have a canonical answer, but it's more fun to say they don't breath, so that's the answer. https://t.co/hs1TnbrYl5

@JeremyECrawford a sage advice question. Can a dragonborn have two different ancestry when they chose the draconic bloodline in the sorcerer

— David Barnes (@flyinghawk261) January 12, 2016

A dragonborn sorcerer can choose a different ancestor for the racial trait and for the Dragon Ancestor feature. #DnD https://t.co/1GvkjJSOoy

@JeremyECrawford Breath fire and piss acid!

If you are exhaling fire and pissing acid, please see a physician immediately! https://t.co/K6EYCaezsA
