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.

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

@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.

Can you elect to not hit a second target with Geen Flame Blade even if one is in range?

Yesterday the Green-Flame Blade spell received updated wording (link below) that, among other tweaks, clarifies that the spellcaster can choose whether to launch green fire at a second target: https://t.co/sSnpLkq6bV #DnD https://t.co/ac9ooYnOoe

@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.

@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

@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

@BrailSaysCould we please get an official RAW ruling on +damage to Magic Missile/etc? Very heated debate about it on the reddits >_>
"Could we please get an official RAW ruling on +damage to Magic Missile/etc?"
If you summarize the issue, I'll tackle it.

@BrailSayssay you have +3 to spell damage from feature. Magic missile 3 bolts. +3 per bolt or flat +3?
"say you have +3 to spell damage from feature. Magic missile 3 bolts. +3 per bolt or flat +3?"
Depends on the feature's wording

@BrailSays evo wizards lvl 10 feature? don’t know exact words
Empowered Evocation does benefit magic missile's damage roll.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) January 21, 2015
@BrailSays+x per bolt,even on same target?
Yep. It's one damage roll, just like fireball, but that roll can damage the same target more than once.

@ApocalypticTwitTwinned Spell: Does it need a spell that is targeting 1 creature, or a spell that CAN ONLY target 1 creature? Twinned Spell is intended to work with a spell that can normally target only one creature. @mikemearls

@wachungaPrestidigitation has range 10 whereas cleric/druid variants (Thaumaturgy/Druidcraft) have range 30. Is this intentional? It's intentional.
