@mikemearls So few creatures have Reactions other than the usual opp. attacks. Was this intentional design? If so, why? — AndruC (@AndruC) August 17, 2017 Very much intentional – DMs tend to overlook them, saw they were hard to track in play.

@RobertPascuttinDoes a readied action become a reaction? If it does then it can be lost if the readying character is hit with a shocking grasp? yes and yes — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) April 12, 2016

It doesn't work on someone else's. #DnD https://t.co/pif67Y3b6N — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 15, 2016

@oilpainting712 archers in combat.1 in total cover,the other with ready action.Can ready action use trigger as “first sight”,to fire 1st? #DnD yes, that fits in well with the intent of readying — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) January 25, 2016

Why is Extra Attack in the Attack Action definition, yet the only Action limited to “On your Turn” (Reserved for non-Actions)..? @john_Doe995 Why is Extra Attack in the Attack Action definition, yet the only Action limited to “On your Turn” (Reserved for non-Actions)..? it prevents multiple attacks with an opportunity attack — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) […]

@JeremyECrawford I have a readied action. Can I stop readying to take an opp attack? Or is ready a full turn commitment? — Ameron (Derek Myers) (@ameron_dm) September 14, 2015 Yes, you can take the opportunity attack and thereby stop readying. #DnD https://t.co/PC49YG0GEI — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) September 14, 2015
