@KarrattiDon’t know if this has been asked, but is there a way in 5e to recover Int? Say, after meeting an Intellect Devourer? Thank you! not in rules as written – I'd allow it with any spell that removes a curse or disease. I believe it's an oversight.

Find Steed: is the intent to allow DM to pick a better steed for paladin as he levels up?
@Vander_NarsFind Steed – is the intent to allow DM to pick a better steed for paladin as he lvls up or stuck with 19hp warhorse at lvl 20 it's really meant to be a mount rather than something that fights, but I'd allow other forms that fit the paladin's need

@Vander_Nars For instance, a paladin shipwrecked on an island could summon an aquatic mount – DM's choice, based on deity's intent

If I cast a spell from a staff such as the Staff of the Magi do I need to have and expend spell components?
@AdonisChristIf I cast a spell such as Arcane Lock from a staff such as the Staff of the Magi do I need to have and expend spell components? Yes, I believe so.
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) March 26, 2015
@ngsiverly @AdonisChristNo, DMG page 141: “requires no components, unless the item’s description says otherwise.” well, then there you go!

Ability checks and attack rolls are two distinct things
@wyrddrgnApologies if it’s FAQ’d somewhere, but are attack rolls technically ability checks? Context: disadvantage applied via Hex spell No, ability checks and attack rolls are two distinct things
