Hey Mike, with the end of SKT what OFFICIALLY happens to the Ordning? Is it set back into place or still shattered?no canonical result as of yet
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) June 13, 2017
We haven't made any official declaration regarding the state of the ordning post-SKT. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/MCOjHrMmpd
— Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) June 13, 2017
Excited to announce our full launch on August 15th!

Will the digital copies have an option for offline access? Having all the players online at once has been known to crash our wifi.We're working on an app as fast as we can!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
That’s disappointing. A lot of us want standalone PDFs that work offline on PC. The lack has been keenly felt and encouraged piracy.We're working on offline capabilities, never fear!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
Are you still going to find a way so that people who already own core books won’t have to pay again on @DnDBeyond? I’ll keep asking. #dnd Not sure how you got this impression – we are focused on making a digital toolset, not physical books. That's where the cost comes from!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 20, 2017
The eventual goal is for #DnD Beyond to completely replace the physical books.”
To be clear, we did not write this interview and that sentiment was never mentioned by us! Phys. books will continue to thrive with demand.— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
I would love to use your site. But I don’t want you snooping in my twitch account.. what to do? Can I make local account?Will content from Unearthed Arcana be featured in @DnDBeyond or will that need to be put in via homebrew content?We have plans to incorporate UA playtest content. We'll share details as we're able.
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
We are owned by Twitch, so a Twitch account is required for login. We won't go snoopin!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
Sub prices good, DLC not so much #critique
I recommend a group option to distribute costs, or have a sub tier that can access all content Just a suggestion: Maybe display that info somewhere on the page.. It’s a trusted label, why not use it? I would have trusted the login thenGood point! We'll add that to the suggestions list!— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
A Master Tier subscription allows a group to share all their purchased content with up to 12 free accounts. Cost distribution achieved.
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
Will I be able to buy the Monster Manual in @DnDBeyond and use it there without paying a monthly fee?Yes – all digital content is a one-time purchase.

hey team! Super excited for DDB! When you refer to “full groups” for the DM-level, what’s the max? Mine is six+me.Master Tier subscription allows sharing with up to 12 free accounts – not counting any players that also have a subscription.
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 19, 2017
Will there be a character builder on here??There already is!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
I don’t have twitch. I don’t want to use twitch. How else can I use it?A Twitch account is required for log in!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
Is there a mobile version? It is completely mobile responsive, but we are also working on an app!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
Costing:
SRD = Free
PHB = $30
Player Sub (unlimited Chars etc) = $3 p/m
DM Sub (share paid content w/players for free) = $6 p/mWorth? For those asking, digital copies of the books are not PDFs, but they include the entire content, not just the database. A sample: pic.twitter.com/plIinOmYoX
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
will i need to purchase volos to unlock firbolg, yuan-ti, etc in the character creator?You can purchase Volo's in its entirety, or you could unlock only firbolgs or yuan-ti for $2.99 each – there's flexibility.

Just sat doing admin for our new party member. Transferring from D&D @DnDBeyond to a printable character sheet & a magic list. Phew.
— Chris Bell (@Frakbuddy) July 18, 2017
We're working on a printable version, never fear!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
I don’t like the idea of charging more for the DM’s. I understand the additional value, but we’re the people who bring all the customers. Master Tier w/ sharing content with all players (in mult. groups) is intended to save a lot of $ for all. Pooling resources encouraged!
— D&D Beyond (@DnDBeyond) July 18, 2017
What feature will be in Modules that you purchase. Will it just be a database of the adventure? Will we have maps w/quick links?All the tooltipping/ crosslinking that is found throughout the site + all interior art + hi-res maps + all NPCs, monsters, items in listings

Does Buck Rogers XXVc count as one of "the old settings?" 'Cause I'd totally buy a Fifth Edition version of it.
Juuuuuuuuuuuuust sayin'
— Snorb (@SnorbESnorb) July 6, 2017
Alas, rights not included in the TSR acquisition. That was quite the underrated game, IMO. https://t.co/SUJvvxGuuc
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) July 6, 2017
So… who DOES own the rights to that, then? I think the Dille family trust still owns it
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) July 6, 2017
Although my experience was only local, I never saw anyone buy or play the BRit25c game. Did it ever sell enough to justify another edition ?
— Christopher Osborne (@RainOfSteel) July 6, 2017
Speaking purely as a gamer, at the time I thought of Buck Rogers in terms of the TV show, passed on it until long after it was out of print.

@JcorvinstevensI’m working on an Adventure and I need to know – are peanuts native to the Forgotten Realms? Who better to ask! Yes, but they're known as "groundnuts" or "daramma." Vilhon Reach is one good growing area.
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 2, 2016
@Jcorvinstevens A pleasure! Always great to talk Realmslore!
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) August 2, 2016
saw a response of yours to peanuts in the FR, and was wondering, what of our produce don’t they have?Precious little. Gates link all the worlds. What they DO have is different food preferences (e.g. they've never heard of corn syrup).

@JeremyECrawford Does casting a bonus action spell still allow you to cast a normal spell then still get a reaction spell?
— Jason Eau Clair (@Nasagi) September 27, 2015
Casting a bonus action spell means no other spells that turn but a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action. #DnD https://t.co/SGcrax6SrT
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) October 9, 2015
Sorry to debate this, but: why does sage the advise article http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/sage-advice/ability-check … state that a reaction can be done too?Each paragraph of the answer addresses the question—can you cast more than 1 spell on your turn?—and nothing in the 3rd para. undoes the 2nd

@JeremyECrawford Just my monthly ask about whether Careful Spell can be used with Cloudkill?
— Eric Green (@quadhund) March 9, 2017
Careful Spell is used the turn you cast a spell and is intended to affect saving throws made that turn. #DnD https://t.co/QK1QurR4FO
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 10, 2017
@aweeks007so careful fireball should mean your protected targets take half damage? *cough* #wafflecrew That's correct.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 10, 2017
This has got to be the worst RAI ruling I’ve ever seen. Careful spell is now compatible with 5 sorcerer spells that don’t do damage. Careful Spell works with fireball, lightning bolt, and many other spells.

During Force Grey 2 Trailer I catch some images, take a look…
@TheEdVerse @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnD Do firearms such as muskets, blunderbusses etc. exist in the Forgotten Realms? Are they common? #dnd
— Joshua Parry (@jvcparry) April 22, 2017
Primitive firearms do exist in the Realms but are not common. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/1NgPD39T2n
— Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) April 22, 2017
@jvcparry @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnD Yes; see my Firearms articles in DRAGON # 60 and 70. Gunpowder doesn't work (combust) in the Realms, only smokepowder. Firearms VERY rare.
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 22, 2017
@jvcparry @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnD 1/3) Bombards use the ground to take their recoil and great weight. Most Realms ships can't handle cannon recoils (wheeled shipboard …

@jvcparry @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnD 4/4) . . . right away. Many ships carry sandbags, water cistern to quench deck fires. MOST pirates: crossbow volley, then storm and board.

@techjunkie30 @jvcparry @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnD What is the difference between gunpowder and smoke powder? And of course gunpowder won't ignite (work at all) in the Realms. Saltpeter (by itself) will burn, not explode. Smokepowder will.
— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) May 24, 2017
@jvcparry @techjunkie30 @Sernett @ChrisPerkinsDnDIs there a canon reason for this? 1/2) In-game: the Firelord (Kossuth) decreed it so; natural or creature-made attempts to combine ingredients into what we would call …
