@JeremyECrawford For Booming Blade, did you intend for standing up from prone to trigger the extra damage? It costs movement.

Standing up costs movement but moves you nowhere. To move while prone, you crawl or use magic (PH, 191). #DnD https://t.co/QZakD4Tv5X

@JeremyECrawford are booming blade and green-flame blade compatible with extra attack? since they are spells i wouldn't think so
— Cj McWilliams (@ceej_90_) October 23, 2015
Extra Attack requires the Attack action, not the Cast a Spell action. #DnD https://t.co/8aXVvC0e53

@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford Would an arcane trickster using greenflame blade be able to benefit from sneak attack damage as well? #dnd
— Nerd Immersion (@nerdimmersion) October 29, 2015
Yes, Sneak Attack can pair with green-flame blade in the right circumstances. #DnD https://t.co/H5weTZgOjw

@JeremyECrawford Is is possible to Twin Spell Booming Blade, hitting two adjacent targets withing reach?
— Tim Wilder (@mrprotoman) April 13, 2017
Twinned Spell test: can the spell affect only one creature at the spell's current level, and is its range not self? If yes, TS works. #DnD https://t.co/nv6PqmzF0z

@thuggibearWhat about chaos bolt? That has a new attack roll only targeting one target at a time, but can potentially effect more. Neither the feature nor the test I tweeted talks about attack rolls. Can the spell affect more than one creature? That's the question.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) April 14, 2017
So I understand correctly, because the initial target of the spell can never change, it can be twinned? So since the Dragon's Breath spell only ever targets the one creature who I cast it on, it can be twinned and both recipients can use the effects?

Dragon's breath can affect more than one creature with the exhalation. It therefore can't be twinned. #DnD https://t.co/97DzcSR7pZ

I completely agree with @doransiegetower. The target of Dragon’s Breath is “one willing creature.”
— Observant Oliphaunt (@zoozeki) December 22, 2017
That’s like saying haste has 2 sets of targets, the hastened person and everyone that they use their extra actions to attack, or that everyone that tries to hit a mage armored person is also a target. Neither of the spells you mentioned create an area of effect with its own targets. Dragon’s breath is exceptional.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 22, 2017
How dragon's breath works has no relevance to other spells. See below.https://t.co/LKiIipxbw1

That’s silly. I’m not going to try and account for *possible* targets. It targets the creature it gives the breath to, and that’s it. I know you’re the “word of law,” but that’s silly. Luckily, there’s nothing for you to account for. You cast the spell on someone. They exhale on someone else. The end.

@JeremyECrawford Can you use the Feral Variant from SCAG on the variants in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes?
— Drop Bear (@dropbear8mybaby) June 11, 2018
To use the tiefling variants in the "Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide" you need to (a) be a tiefling and (b) have the DM's permission to use them. #DnD https://t.co/gqCIpvFJY5
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 11, 2018
what’s the in-house opinion about spells and character options from Sword Coast Adventure’s Guide that weren’t put in Xanathar’s? Were they considered too specific, niche, or thematic with the setting or was it because of power issues or something else?We chose things from the SCAG to put in "Xanathar's Guide" that we wanted to make available for play in the entire D&D multiverse. Other things in SCAG we're happy to leave in the Forgotten Realms, for which they were designed.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) 7 maggio 2018
No, just not a thematic fit without bladesinger

@JeremyECrawford Can you settle a heated discussion, please? A firbolg PC casts booming blade then uses hidden step to go invisible. The creature that is hit with booming blade moves away and thus takes damage. Does hidden step deactivate?
— Nathaniel Mosher (@RubiksMoose) February 1, 2018
So it doesn’t matter if a spell/effect is initiated by you before hidden step was activated? As long as you make a creature do a saving throw or attack or roll damage for any reason then hidden step ends? That’s correct.
