@AGMyadda @ChrisPerkinsDnDWhen I use Help action in combat, do I need to specify both target and ally, or just target? specify both ally and target, IIRC

Why cantrips aren’t written in spellbooks?
@looneysquashWhat’s the in world explanation of why wizard cantrips aren’t written in spellbooks? And why they can’t find and learn new ones.
cantrips are more like sorcerer-style spellcasting, a mastered skill as opposed to a learned formula

Is your passive Perception the minimum you can roll?
@rderekpIs your passive Perception the minimum you can roll? Like you always are as good as your passive score?
depends on DM's approach – I use passive for everything except active checks that use the character's action.
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) October 19, 2015
@rderekp in that case, imagine that PC might make a mistake, be distracted, etc. to end up with less than passive check

How do magic items interact with the Invisibility spell?
@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford How do magic items interact with the Invisibility spell? Does using a Ring of Spell Storing break Invisibility?
— Michael Litten (@WetNachos) December 4, 2015
The invisibility spell ends on you if you cast a spell, regardless of the method of casting. #DnD https://t.co/HaEpxmXxDc

A good build for an Half-Drow
@ChrisPerkinsDnD What's a good build for half drow. Also would they receive lolthtouched powers?
— Roderick D. Gainey (@UndyingGotunks) November 6, 2015
I would treat them as half-elves (because that's what they are). No drow magic but also no sunlight sensitivity. https://t.co/Zi6e9r2bHf

Can I play dead in the middle of a combat after getting hit?
@AlexOckhamCan I use perform proficiency to play dead in the middle of a combat after getting hit? Do I get advantage on my next attack?
I'd make it a Charisma (Deception) check contested against the target's passive Perception, but require PC to drop prone

Multiclass level for Extra attack
@JeremyECrawford Should a Ranger 3/Paladin 2 get Extra Attack, since both classes get Extra Attack at the same level (5th level)? #DnD
— Matthew Hutton (@jollymatth) October 22, 2015
That character (ranger 3 / paladin 2) gets Extra Attack upon reaching 5th level in ranger or paladin. #DnD https://t.co/PLUHxkuSnc

No. See the MM. https://t.co/7ariL3G4xj

A slaad is an aberration, not a fiend. #DnD https://t.co/ch3LeTrjpL
