@RoelandDraayercould you tell me wether a ranger companion’s save DC such as that of the wolves bite scales with the ranger’s proficiency? I'd allow it if the proficiency bonus adds to other things

@LeMarcSharma @JeremyECrawford If one cast a spell on you and fail when you make a Saving Throw, do you know? Ex: Charm Person, ScryingDM's call, based on nature of spell. As default, no unless there is an obvious effect #wotcstaff

@LeMarcSharma @JeremyECrawford by effect, mean visual effect or similar from description of spell #WOTCstaff

@ptr_mlr How would you rule “secret casting”? A) Out in the open? B) While already hidden? Different checks for V, S, M components? already hidden, would require another Stealth check vs. passive perception

@ptr_mlr @ChrisPerkinsDnDThanks! Would you allow that to avoid combat? E.g. a hidden AT Rogue casts Silent Image to distract a target? yes, that sound reasonable

@ChrisPerkinsDnD I am trying to find Ygorl stats/info for 5E. Is he still in Limbo or migrated to the far realms?

— Brett Jarboe (@T0ecutterBrett) August 15, 2016

There are no official 5E stats for the slaad lord Ygorl. I assume he's still chillin' in Limbo. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/BjC1UV4Ei9

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Do you personally use Group Checks to determine if a party is stealthy, or take the lowest result (as per p36 of LMoPhand)?

— Ross Cody (@rossmcody) August 18, 2016

Depends. If the characters take steps to better conceal the loud, stinky, hulking barbarian, the former. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/pSjNzV1JcO

@Ataraxic89Long time listener, first time caller: I was wondering why the spell Weird is so weak in 5e compared to other 9th level spells it relies on maximizing its duration. if you can debuff Wis saves, can be devastating. #wotcstaff

@MagicMikeHurley @ChrisPerkinsDnDwould a badly injured gr dragon hold up its end of a bargain? It can kill the party but would take some dmg. as lawful evil dragons, it typically would #WOTCstaff

@rtassicker @ChrisPerkinsDnD @DMs_BlockWhat do you with a pc hit by banishment? Seems like a boring session for the player. if it's an issue, I'd steal from Stranger Things and use a similar world that they're trapped in
