@JeremyECrawford Can you use the Feral Variant from SCAG on the variants in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes?

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

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.

@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.

@JeremyECrawford Is the attack made as part of Booming Blade magical? It's delivered as part of a spell, but has its "usual effects" and is a prerequisite for the spell to work.

The booming blade spell isn't intended to make the required weapon attack magical. #DnD https://t.co/kFDRhuU8nj

@JeremyECrawford Swashbuckler 3rd level casting Greenflame Blade – does it work with Fancy Footwork?
— FailedHorroCzech (@LowWisdomCzech) September 13, 2017
The Fancy Footwork feature works with melee attacks. It doesn't specify weapon or spell attacks, so it works with either. #DnD https://t.co/l6UmcEfFTr

Booming Blade doesn’t say ‘make a MWA’ only that you must make one. Does twinning GRANT a 2nd MWA against the 2nd target?Yes.

@JeremyECrawford 5e. Can GFB/Booming blade be used when invoking Charger feat? They are melee weapon attacks which Charger calls for.
— RockRock (@RockRockRust) July 13, 2017
The Charger feat lets you make a melee weapon attack or shove someone. It doesn't let you cast a spell. #DnD https://t.co/ahdIwL5BWu

No, just not a thematic fit without bladesinger
