@JeremyECrawford Does the 2nd pt. of Shield Master function against spells that can only target 1 creature (i.e. like Twin Spell)?

The 2nd bullet of Shield Master works against any effect that targets only you. It isn't limited in the same way that Twinned Spell is. #DnD https://t.co/3Vr0b2FTR3

Sniping in, does that bonus include magic bonus from say a +2 shield (+4 instead of +2)?

The 2nd part of Shield Master uses your shield's AC bonus, whatever that bonus currently is. #DnD https://t.co/QHpkgJGpBo

To be clear: if you're the only target of a Fireball, you can use that benefit of Shield Master?

A typical area of effect has more than one target: the effect's point of origin and one or more creatures/objects. #DnD https://t.co/nQZvH8iZu9

Why isnt a rapier listed as a light weapon despite being lighter than other light weapons?If weight is the concern, a dagger (a light weapon) is lighter than a rapier.

I want to be able to dual wield rapiers, but can’t since they aren’t categorized as lightRapiers were either going to get a d8 for damage or the light property. They got a d8.

Did you just say that the point of origin counts as a target? And disqualifies Shield Master even if there's just one creature target?

The rules on spell targeting (PH, 204) do mean that you can't use the 2nd bullet of Shield Master against a typical AoE. #DnD https://t.co/dOnz9ClJHw

Sure thing!
