@zudensachendoes a Ranger’s companion heal on short and long rests, like a character, pls? yes – they use hit dice like characters

@allenshock1also, rogue firing at someone with enemy within 5 ft gets crit but if ranged, target gets cover bonus to AC as well? yes, other creatures can provide cover, though DM adjudicates based on situatiob

@allenshock1if someone hits a unconscious character that’s a crit and so two death save falilures, correct? sounds right – sorry, don't have book with me

@Miahkai so honest question, what was the reasoning of limiting sneak attack to light weapons, but giving rogues Longsword prof? useful for when you don't have sneak attack

@__BlackHumor__High-lvl druid wildshapes into form with much less HP. Enemy caster casts Sleep on her. Is she unconscious? Still in wildshape? unconscious – basically ignore Druid stats unless it says otherwise

@wachunga Just noticed that 5e sorcerers don’t have ritual casting, but bards do. Is that deliberate? I don’t see the logic there. bards rely on study and lore to learn magic, sorcerers are prodigies who don't engage in study.

@Hard_ViceSo cantrips that improve with levels: character level or class level? My monk has Sacred Flame via Magic Initiate, e.g. character level

@DenisDion if i were to twin a chromatic orb, could I target the same creature twice? ability specifies a second creature, so no.
