@JeremyECrawford Does the heal blocking effect from Chill Touch prevent a slain Troll from returning to life on the following turn, or can it still "regenerate" even though it gains no hit points?

The Regeneration trait must restore at least 1 hit point for a troll, or another monster with the trait, to regenerate. #DnD https://t.co/N3Bp9EaHpJ

@JeremyECrawford @ChrisPerkinsDnD If wielding a sword in each hand can you decide what to main action attack with and then change what to swing in the middle of the turn and swing the other sword using extra attack without using object interaction to switch hands?

Nothing prohibits you from using a different weapon, or no weapon at all, for each of the attacks granted by Extra Attack. If the weapon is in hand, you can use it. #DnD https://t.co/uKrGx1Nstq

But to confirm, a bonus action attack can typically only be utilized with an offhand weapon, correct? Except something like Polearm Master and the like, yes?

There is no general rule that restricts the weapons you use for an attack granted by a bonus action. If a particular bonus action attack has a restriction, that restriction is specified in the text for that bonus action. #DnD https://t.co/fIznWhcqcS

The breath weapon of a dragon is not a spell or magical effect and presumably wouldn’t be considered an object so would go through Leomund’s Tiny Hut like it wasn’t there, yes? That's correct.

@JeremyECrawford Rules question, Sir… Can a caster cast a spell like Shield or Counterspell, if there is no attack made against them or a spell to counter?
— Keith (@Glytched) December 6, 2017
A reaction spell that has a defined trigger can be cast only in response to that trigger. If that trigger doesn't happen, you can't cast the spell. #DnD https://t.co/d8qoJfo89F

@JeremyECrawford Telekinesis vs. a PC with freedom of movement. What is the outcome?
— Chaco (@Chaco_Chicken) December 19, 2017
Spells and other effects, such as telekinesis, can move you if you're under the effect of freedom of movement, but they can't restrain you. #DnD https://t.co/NjDgZ80yUe

Why does Polymorph stops an active Rage on a Barbarian (no more class features), but doesn’t remove Arcane Ward?Arcane Ward is an external effect that you activate. Its duration isn't dependent on your form.

@JeremyECrawford DMG p140 causing argument. "a magic item that's meant to be worn can fit a creature regardless of size or build." Intent to adjust only for M-sized creatures, or magic armor resizes from pixie to giant? Do magic rings change size also?
— Alex Wright (@alex_wright1313) November 27, 2017
Curious whether nonhumanoids can wear magic items? See "Wearing and Wielding Items" (DMG, 140–1), where it says, "When a nonhumanoid tries to wear an item, use your discretion as to whether the item functions as intended." #DnD https://t.co/rjuOaC2O0y
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) November 27, 2017
What about in the case of a magical longbow, where its considered "heavy"? Would a gnome be able to use it since magical weapons fit to their user, or is this one of those DM discretion situations?

Changing the size of a weapon doesn't change that weapon's properties, which are game features, not in-world descriptions. #DnD https://t.co/yXCjsyLuIe

If I understand it correctly, there are weapon attacks and there are spell attacks and that covers all attacks. So if an attack isn't one, it's the other.
— David Hawkins (@MadDuckie) January 12, 2018
This is correct: every attack is either a weapon attack or a spell attack. #DnD https://t.co/c3l9Q6e0M6
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) January 12, 2018
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) So you don’t consider social attacks an attack? 😉 January 12, 2018
Maybe say “every attack currently.” Wouldn’t want to limit design space (i.e. to balance a psionic character of necessary) This distinction is built into the core. Psionics work within that framework.
