@mikemearls What's the customary gift a DM should give to a player for a deceased character? Asking for a friend (who's a DM). #RIProgue

A shiny new blank character sheet https://t.co/xrfdOnS16M

@mikemearls shiny as in laminated, so they can easily wipe off the dry erase marker when they die again?

I like how you think! https://t.co/PcDIty4z2c

@drgnlegend31One of my players thanks the dc on a flaming sphere ram is equal to the damage is this correct? should just be spell save DC unless spell says otherwise #wotcstaff

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 12, 2016

@mikemearls @drgnlegend31If you ram the sphere into a creature, that creature must make the saving throw against the sphere’s damage Is that what you mean by state otherwise?

— Steven Connor (@Mazoshi1987) August 12, 2016

@Mazoshi1987 @drgnlegend31 yes, if a specific rule gives a DC use that, otherwise use the spell DC

@drgnlegend31 @GawkerMademe1 @Mazoshi1987I say you use your normal DC the player believes DC equals the damage roll. use the save DC. "Save vs. damage" refers to making a normal save to resist dmg #wotcstaff

@CoreyBatiecan you short rest while in Druid Wild Shape and gain benefits of short rest, including wild shape uses? believe yes

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 2, 2016

@sageCMmann Oh no! What’s pushed you to that length?

— Matthew Mercer (@matthewmercer) July 29, 2016

@sageCMmann Trying more silly systems, it let another take the reins

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Do unconscious creatures still benefit from the AC bonus of the Haste spell?

— John Wyatt (@John_Wyatt_) August 6, 2016

Based on the wording of the spell, I would say yes. The AC boost has nothing to do with speed/mobility. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/3ZNdotfTiM

— (((Chris Perkins))) (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) August 6, 2016

@ChrisPerkinsDnD @John_Wyatt_ If we are speaking of 5e, does the auto-crit on unconscious creatures make the AC boost irrelevant?

— Trendane (@Trendane) August 6, 2016

It's not auto-crit. You still have to make an attack roll (w/ advantage) against an unconscious creature. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/JRcNShi7wS

@ChrisPerkinsDnD What happens when a creature is immune to being restrained during a failed petrification save?

— michael baumann (@Shad0wner) July 29, 2016

The creature isn't restrained, but once it is petrified, it becomes a statue. #WOTCstaff https://t.co/fUDP8Gi18c

The long road to leading design on 5e started with me in '99 miserable, unhappy, & frustrated, flat-out deciding "I can be a game designer."

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 25, 2016

It took an enormous amount of work, a big slice of luck, and a lot of support to get here, but that's the first step. Decide you can do it.

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 25, 2016

It's a small thing, and it doesn't really push you forward, but it does point you in the right direction.

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 25, 2016

It's also why inclusivity matters to me – the world is hard enough, we don't need to make things worse for each other. Don't be a dick.

— (((Mike Mearls))) (@mikemearls) August 25, 2016

@geeniusatwrokOn PH 73, “You can use only one maneuver per attack.” But is that one maneuver per attack (roll to hit) or per Attack (action)? per attack
