Fighter’s “Know Thy Enemy” let’s players learn the target’s level. Where’s that information located?

Know Thy Enemy says "if any" after "levels" since there's a good chance the target doesn't have levels, which is true of most monsters. #DnD https://t.co/URgbZtDqPQ

What counts as an object?
@JeremyECrawford Enlarge/Reduce question: what counts as an object. No size is listed. My player wanted to shrink a tower to half its size.

Want to know what counts as an object in D&D? See "Objects" (DMG, 246). #DnD https://t.co/bFuzuQWwH5

Does Protection From Good & Evil protect against a non-evil undead or a non-good celestial?
Good day @JeremyECrawford. Does Protection From Good & Evil protect against a non-evil undead or a non-good celestial?
— ubergrog (@ubergrog) March 7, 2017
The protection from evil and good spell wards against creatures of certain types. It doesn't care what their alignments are. #DnD https://t.co/KoXGiq3PBn

Stuck in a corner under Fear…
@LeMarcSharmaStuck in a corner under Fear, caster in the room, door behind. Must I Dash to the door (Fear) or can’t I (frightened)? You're stuck in that corner.

PHB states somatic component hand & material component hand can be same…
@JeremyECrawford PH states somatic component hand & material component hand can be same. Does that still apply if focus is used f material?
— (((TheTracker))) (@IdiotTracker) January 25, 2017
You can have a spellcasting focus in the hand you use for a somatic component. See the PH errata: https://t.co/vzc7twThef #DnD https://t.co/VdEKr8QQVk

@JeremyECrawford What if your a cleric and your shield and holy symbol are the same thing and you have a mace in your other hand?
— tripDiode (@Jungle_Udyr) March 6, 2017
A holy symbol can function as a spellcasting focus even when it's on a shield. See "Holy Symbol" (PH, 151). #DnD https://t.co/v8QrGZyCOM
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 6, 2017
@JeremyECrawford so a cleric would not would not need a free hand to cast spells as long as the shield is the holy symbol?
— tripDiode (@Jungle_Udyr) March 6, 2017
Using a holy symbol on your shield? See the Sage Advice Compendium (search for "holy symbol") for info: https://t.co/dh02JRnEH8 #DnD https://t.co/wv65ofp79z

Does an ability that causes attacker to roll disadvantage need to be declared before roll?
@JeremyECrawford @ChrisPerkinsDnD does an ability that causes attacker to roll disadvantage, warding flare, need to be declared before roll?
— Gregory Cherry (@GregoryCherry69) March 7, 2017
Warding Flare must be used before an attack hits/misses, as indicated in the feature's second sentence (PH, 61). #DnD https://t.co/mtqxt2bYsh

When a devourer consumes a creature into its ribs, can it still attack that creature?
@JeremyECrawford When a devourer consumes a creature into its ribs, can it still attack that creature? Also, is the soul free to reincarnate
— Austin (@masterofwar25) November 29, 2016
The ribs of a devourer don't provide total cover. If they did, the monster's stat block would say so. #DnD https://t.co/fVdAwtwhqQ
