@MikeADavidson @mikemearlsPC attempts to intimidate NPC: would you do a CHA (Intim.) vs Wis saving throw contest? Or is there a better option? Thx! You could do it as a regular contest: Charisma (Intimidation) vs. Wisdom (Insight).

@MikeADavidson @mikemearlsThanks! Would Charisma (Diplomacy) be handled the same way? Depends on intent. Two people having a duel of wits could each make a Charisma (Persuasion) check for a contest.

@MikeADavidson @mikemearls In contrast, if a character is making a twisty argument to someone, it could be Persuasion vs. Insight.

@MikeADavidsonThanks! (Sorry, I meant Persuasion, not Diplomacy…still have my 4e campaign running, plus new 5e game.) No worries! I made the same mistake, deleted my tweet, and then rewrote it with Persuasion!

@dangladingRAW, temp clerics have few lightning dmg triggers for t-bolt strike. Is this RAI? Is this why div strike is only thunder? The lack of interaction between Divine Strike and Thunderbolt Strike is intentional.

That is fine but what about the ability to use the ability at all. That only leaves Call Lighting and Wrath of the Storm

Those are the basic lightning options for a Tempest cleric. More: Magic Initiate feat, multiclassing & magic items. https://t.co/0E5jHQt23e

@MunchkinenDoes “ongoing” damage like the 1d4 acid damage from a flumphs tendrils stack? If hit by two flumphs, is that two Con saves? If you get hit by two flumphs, you have two Con. saves to make!

@ZerounTheQuick @mikemearls @Wizards_DnD the spell Hex affects ability checks, but does this include saving throws as well? The hex spell affects ability checks, not saving throws.

@bjrecioranger companion: “Its hp max is its normal max or…” If the beast has 2d8+2 hp, does “normal max” mean 11, or 18? #dnd5E It means whatever max the DM sets in the given hp range. If the DM uses the average in the stat block, the max is 11.

@JeremyECrawford And does the champions crit range apply to specific weapons that gives an effect on a 20 (for example vopal sword) ? Thx

— Lars Hjortshøj (@20771646) November 2, 2015

The vorpal sword's property requires a 20 on the attack roll. An expanded crit. range doesn't apply. #DnD https://t.co/qgxvMXzdOL

@OnlyNerdStuff @mikemearlsYou both agree crit dbls Snk Att & Div Smite. What about dmg from Superiority Dice? &Do all 3 reroll with GFW? Any dice that are part of an attack's damage are rolled again on a crit.

@Brail4 @mikemearls @ChrisPerkinsDnD Phantasmal Killer wording confusion.Frightened lasts duration period,or until enemy Saves? Phantasmal killer lasts until the caster's concentration ends or the target saves, whichever is first.
