@el_condoroDoes Blindsight allow you to automatically see creatures using obscurement to hide in order to cause them to lose hidden? An undistracted creature with blindsight does typically notice creatures who aren't behind cover.

@JeremyECrawford @Dan_Dillon_1
Twinned Spell says: "targets only one creature" Can Dragon's Breath be Twinned since it only "targets" one creature? The cone from Dragon's Breath does not target a creature, it effects an area.

I saw that too. My argument is in the text of Twinned and the word Target. Dragon’s Breath only “targets” once and only one creature No where in the text of Twinned, does it say "affects"

I encourage you to run Twinned Spell in the way that makes the most sense to you and your group.

I've expressed our intent about the dragon's breath spell and Twinned Spell. A group decides whether to embrace that intent.

@JeremyECrawford What specifically does "Melee Weapon Attack" mean: A melee attack with a weapon, or an attack with a melee weapon?

— Anonymous (@ApocalypticTwit) August 20, 2015

A melee weapon attack is a melee attack with a weapon. https://t.co/2OYgN4Ghgo

@undrhil @ApocalypticTwitsince unarmed strikes are no longer considered weapons, they cannot be used for melee weapon attacks? The rule on unarmed strikes is an exception: they can be used for melee weapon attacks, despite not being weapons.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) August 20, 2015

@sebkhaNot to be confused with: an attack with a melee weapon.
That's correct, since an attack with a melee weapon can be a ranged attack if you throw it.

Order ofScribes, Manifest Mind lets you cast a spell “as if you were in the spectral mind’s space”. Assuming I had conjured the mind first, if I’m inside an Otiluke’s Resilisent Sphere, can I still cast spells as if I was in the mind’s space? You can!

@SlyFlourish @mikemearls @ChrisSSimsSpecifically, in #dnd 5e narrative combat how would you handle cone attacks? I usually wing it. But here's a trick: divide a cone's size by 10 (round up) for the number of targets.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 7, 2014

@vikke064 @SlyFlourish @mikemearls @ChrisSSimsSo 2 targets in a 15ft cone? Yes, if you're using the divide-by-10 (round up) trick.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 7, 2014

@SlyFlourish @JeremyECrawfordso the Ancient Red can hit nine!? Awesome! To me, it's more interesting, because I can imagine the cone being sprayed around, instead of frozen in space.

@ironwizard13Can a Fighter Wizard use the Action Surge to cast a spell? Yep! The action granted by Action Surge can do any of the things an action can normally do.

Does a cantrip only count as “cast a spell” then? A caster can’t use a cantrip on an opportunity attack?

@corymacdonaldSo wait? Does a cantrip only count as “cast a spell” then? A caster can’t use a cantrip on an opportunity attack? Correct. A cantrip is a spell.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 23, 2015

@corymacdonaldA cantrip being a spell doesn’t bother me definitionally. A cantrip being unusable on an OA does. I encourage creating a house rule if you want all spellcasters to be able to use cantrips for OAs. @WiscoDwarf

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 23, 2015

@corymacdonald I didn’t realize it’d nerf War Caster. It was how I thought about cantrips. Clearly baked in. I’m good now. Excellent! @WiscoDwarf
