@captainsangster I was wondering, why there are such heavy restrictions on beast-master companion and if there will be a way to allow higher CRs animal companions were a huge source of issues in 3e – adding an extra "character" is a very powerful ability

@leandro_bitsCan I use the bonus action from the feat Shield Master without losing the bonus damage from the Duelist Fighting Style? yes – shield still doesn't count as a weapon

@CHoffosAnother question. Do you know why the Terrasque is missing it’s regen and immortality. Or should I ask someone else? not sure about regen, but immortality is something we'd handle more based on its role in a setting

Leomunds Chest req 5k gold chest.Meant to have that at lvl 7,or meant to come back to it later? @Brail4 you might have that at level 7, depending on the campaign, but it would represent a big investment IIRC

@jadraxdarkfire @JeremyECrawfordIf I cast Barkskin and use a Shield, is my AC 16 or 18? I'd say 18

@dr_kevinsmith @mikemearlsQuick question, is a Paladin’s divine smite affected by a crit, or is only the weapon damage rolled x2. Cheers I would let a crit affect Divine Smite.

. @Kez_DarksunIs Padded armor really meant to give disadvantage to stealth rolls? yes – padded and ring are bad, cheap armors meant for militia, poorly equipped warriors, not really aimed at PCs.

Stealth/Hiding: These rules intentionally rely on DM judgment to adjudicate. DM has to judge situations, whether PC can hide.
