@mikemearls Does the Assassinate rogue feature cause item effects that normally occur on a N20 to take effect? As they are treated as crits?

— Apsco (@Apsco60) December 27, 2015

Yes, the assassinate feature specifies that the attack is a critical hit. Also, rad user profile pic. https://t.co/fX22D6oX5e

@mikemearls @Apsco60 If an item's property is triggered by a crit, yes. If an item says you must roll a 20, no.

@JeremyECrawford @mikemearls Does a versatile weapon get the 2h damage bonus when thrown if two hands are used of the off hand is empty?

— James RePass (@jprepo1) December 27, 2015

Versatile specifies it applies only to melee attacks. https://t.co/iP3P1fe4jM

@JeremyECrawford Question, do minor properties on magic ítems, like guardian, increase the item's rarity rating?

— Lord Zabel Zarock (@DorianXander) January 10, 2016

Magic items: a special feature (DMG, 141–3) doesn't change an item's rarity. #DnD https://t.co/XswbiuOryn

@DorianXanderSo that means, say, a luckstone and a guardian luckstone are both an uncommon magic item? As is an ubreakable luckstone? That's correct.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) January 10, 2016

@DorianXander Sure thing!

@JeremyECrawford Hello. I've a question about 5e rules. If you have a bonus on "ability checks" do you also apply that bonus on your saves?

— Gökmen ÖNCÜ (@gman_go) January 9, 2016

A save isn't an ability check. See the Sage Advice Compendium for more on this topic: https://t.co/BHncQ3ly4J #DnD https://t.co/mT3TxYIFl6

@JeremyECrawford Is a hand considered free to cast a spell that only has a somatic component if that hand has a spellcasting focus in it?

@ChrisPerkinsDnD How much damage do brass knuckles do? Also how much would it take to buy/make?

— Benjamin Wilson (@shadowviolet) January 6, 2016

My guess: Comparable to a club in effect, to a dagger in price. https://t.co/tBiliN8dAa

@ChrisPerkinsDnD Since you are here, what are your views on 5e's Critical Hit rules. A poor role could make it weaker than a normal hit.

— Gary Thomas (@GDT1985) January 5, 2016

It's fine. Yes, you can roll below average damage on a crit, but it's still more than you would've rolled otherwise. https://t.co/PIQjq0mD6I
