@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford if a mount takes the Disengage action does the rider provoke opportunity attacks? Wording of PHB 198 (1/3)
— Robert W.V. Mitchell (@ChewBobcca) May 28, 2015
No, since the mount isn't provoking them and the rider is being moved by someone else's movement (PH, 195). https://t.co/3ywGHee2Id

@JeremyECrawford Monk's Unarmored Move, does it increase Aaarakocra's fly speed? Speed seems to be walking speed, it's a bit confusing.

Unarmored Movement is intended to increase a monk's innate speed, including an aarakocra monk's flying speed. https://t.co/m9RjAp68GK

@stramesDoes a fighter with an increased crit range (say 19-20) always hit on a 19? Or does the fighter miss if the AC is too high? Only a roll of 20 is an automatic hit, unless a feature says otherwise.

@stramesFYI, there is a debate going on http://tinyurl.com/llbcfgq And I fear that ‘unless feature says otherwise’ will fuel not settle I had a brain glitch and was thinking of a theoretical crit. range increase. Specifics: Improved Critical does score a hit on a 19.

@ElesthorCan Great Weap Mstr & Polearm Mstr be combined (take -5/+10 with the bonus attack) and do you add the mod. to the damage? Yep, you can combine them, and you do add your modifier to the damage.

@ETallitnicsWhat’s the word on sleeping in armor? The rules have none, is that right!? There's no rule on sleeping in armor. If someone did it regularly in my campaign, exhaustion would be incoming. @DnD_AdvLeague

@TheDevilOnLineDM question: If a player meets a wild wolf and tries to calm it, would you say that’s a Wisdom (Animal Handling) check? 1/2 I would allow that use of the Animal Handling skill, but taming a wild wolf would be difficult and time-consuming.

@JeremyECrawford hello!! Question: my friend was playing a paladin. He got a attack of opportunity and wanted to blast it with a smite? I said it’s a reaction and it only one melee attack. Not sure on the ruling. We let it go cause it was a cool part in the story.

The paladin's Divine Smite feature isn't limited to the paladin's turn. Its prerequisite is hitting a creature with a melee weapon attack. #DnD https://t.co/E3b49ZLXco

Would an Artificer's steel defender stop working if it stepped in antimagic field?
— SEL | hmd (@manil_hmd) April 20, 2020
An artificer's steel defender isn't a spell, a magic item, or an effect labeled as magical by a rule. It is therefore not affected by the antimagic field spell. #DnD https://t.co/35z6arRwmO
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) April 20, 2020
Conceptually yes, an antimagic field should suppress whatever magic power is animating any magical construct. 5e's rules on what is considered magical are entirely arbitrary and oftentimes nonsensical.

In D&D, some things are created/altered by magic but then endure without it. Your wound closes thanks to a spell, but thereafter the wound stays closed on its own and can’t be dispelled. Similarly, magic can turn a corpse into a zombie, which then needs no magic to endure. #DnD https://t.co/F2xTYITwj4
