@JeremyECrawford How does the Dark One's Blessing of the Warlock class apply to multi-kills from an AOE attack? Do those temp HP stack?

— Josh Brown (@HeliosHazard) November 23, 2016

Temporary hit points don't stack (PH, 198). If a spell or other feature is meant to break that rule, it would tell you so. #DnD https://t.co/TkAiOgwpyC

@JeremyECrawford Here’s how I handle potion use in D&D 5e. I’m not sure if this is RAW, RAI, or a house rule of mine (it’s open to some debate). I would argue it’s RAW, although maybe not RAI.
You sareAlfp_vy„e_dtp “interact with one object or feature of the environment for free, during either your move or your action” (PHB 190). We’re given some examples of these interactions in the “Interacting with Objects Around You” sidebar. Two of the listed possibilities are:
– withdraw a potion from your backpack
– drink all the ale in a flagon
If you can drink an entire flagon of ale as one of these free interactions, I rule that you could also drink a potion as free interaction, 0,s,19,n_g_ag you have it in hand.
So, possible permutations of this:
1. You could on round 1 pull a potion out of your backpack as your free object interaction in that round. Then on round 2 you could drink the potion you now have in hand as the free object interaction for that round. Over the course of 2 rounds you mr_ea_bje_to pull out a potion and drink it, while still having your full action, bonus action, reaction, and movement for each round.
2. You could on round 1 pull the potion out of your backpack as your free object interaction, and then use your action to drink the potion. Allowing you to get the healing or buff in one round.
3. If you began combat with a potion already in hand, you could then drink the potion in round 1 using your free object interaction, and still have your full action, bonus action, reaction, and movement. I

Would you say this is RAW, RAI, or a house rule? #DnD @ChrisPerkinsDnD pic.twitter.com/ECyZhrC9cW

@LexStarwalker @ChrisPerkinsDnDOther than balance reasons, I can’t imagine why drinking a potion would take more time than a flagon of ale. The rule for drinking a potion is in the section on potions in the DMG (p. 139).

@LexStarwalker It's absolutely a game rule. It's not meant to simulate rates of liquid consumption.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 3, 2016

@LexStarwalkerGotcha! Makes sense! Kind of like how pouring a potion down an unconscious person’s throat doesn’t asphyxiate them. Indeed. D&D is not a physics engine.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 4, 2016

@LexStarwalkerThat said, do you think allowing this increased ease of potion use would cause any balance problems? Potions are effectively bottled spells. Do you want spells cast as non-actions in your game?

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 4, 2016

@colinaoconnorCan you cast darkness on something being held or worn by an enemy? There’s a hair of ambiguity in the PHB about this. No.

@JeremyECrawford Is a glass window considered a total cover for the purpose of targeting a creature with Hold Person spell?

— Draconis (@DerynDraconis) November 28, 2016

A solid obstacle, regardless of material, can provide total cover. A closed window counts. #DnD https://t.co/1gIlswOaSa

@NTMTOPodcastThat’s a good interpretation of rules as written – but is it really how you’d rule as a DM for this spell? Yep.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) November 30, 2016

@NTMTOPodcastInteresting… do you rationalize that in game? ie. Fireball actually projects a ball of fire. Same thing with hold person? The first sentence of fireball says you literally shoot the magic out of your outstretched finger.

@JeremyECrawford do all of the cubes of fire from firestorm have to be contiguous, or can you have separate pockets of two or more cubes?

— Grant Myers (@realgrantmyers) March 6, 2017

Fire storm—the spell's cubes must be contiguous. #DnD https://t.co/IwbyFYEUiV

Can Paladin’s cleansing touch end feeblemind? and if so can he or she use it on themselves to end it?

The intent is that feeblemind can be ended only by the methods specified in the spell. #DnD https://t.co/bDdCinrkbD

@setitadaviMay I spend warlock (pact magic) spell slots to use Paladin’s divine smite? Yes.

@JeremyECrawford If a Battle Master uses Disarming Attack as a reaction does that cause the triggering attack to miss or something else?

— Lucas Brazell (@lucas_brazell) January 2, 2017

A reaction, like the one granted by the Sentinel feat, occurs immediately after its trigger, unless the reaction's text says otherwise. #DnD https://t.co/04xgLiZEmW
