@TadenRifCan a paladin cure ghoul fever by laying on hands on the victim ? Does ghoul fever still exist in 5e BTW, MM says nothing… I think we cut ghoul fever (don't have book on me), but I'd say that a paladin can cure it as a disease

Does Jack of All Trades or Remarkable Athlete help saves?
#SageAdvice @JeremyECrawford Bard's Jack of All Trades & Champion Fighter's Remarkable Athlete features add to Concentration checks, right?
— B Lynn (@DaddyDM) November 4, 2015
Maintaining concentration involves a Con. save. Jack of All Trades & Remarkable Athlete don't help saves. #DnD https://t.co/c9n0vYHO1E

Does the Dueling fighting style apply to the Battlerager’s spiked armor attacks?
@JeremyECrawford Does the Dueling fighting style apply to the Battlerager's spiked armor attacks?
— ChaosDingus (@ChaosDingus) November 2, 2015
The Dueling feature applies to a melee weapon wielded in one hand. Spiked armor is worn, not held. #DnD https://t.co/EFOijye1B9

Can the cleric trigger Wrath of the Storm?
Hey @JeremyECrawford When a creature attacks which starts a grapple (ie smothering carpet) Can the cleric trigger Wrath of the Storm? Thanks
— Stonebraker (@MrStonebraker) October 20, 2015
Wrath of the Storm is used in response to being hit by an attack, regardless of what that attack does on a hit. #DnD https://t.co/NqI6Q8R1li

Help skill?
@ArsenixShirogonI have a DM that says you need proficiency in a skill to help with skill checks but I can’t find the rule. Can you point it out? nope, don't think that's the rule.
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) December 8, 2015
@mikemearls I don't mind the house rule but he insists it's RAW. What page number is helping on ability checks on so I can double check it?
— Ryan Sandhouse (@ArsenixShirogon) December 8, 2015
@ArsenixShirogon PHB page 192, under the Help header

Forgotten Realms Map
@ChrisPerkinsDnD I'm loving @schley's new FR map. But "Elversult" is misspelled and some iconic locations are missing! eg. Red Larch!
— Jonathan Longstaff (@pukunui81) October 28, 2015
I don't think that map was meant to include everything. P.S. "Eversult" is spelled correctly. https://t.co/Sn445Tj73T
— Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) October 28, 2015
@pukunui81 @ChrisPerkinsDnD Locations selected for inclusion in the map were an in-house decision at WotC. Probably wanted to avoid clutter.
— Mike Schley (@schley) October 28, 2015
@pukunui81It feels like it ought to be like google maps, with more detail the more you zoom in. Wouldn’t a map app like that be awesome?
That would be awesome. Oh the possibilities! 🙂
— Mike Schley (@schley) October 28, 2015
@pukunui81 “Elversult” was spelled in-house at WotC so I’m deferring to them on that one.
— Mike Schley (@schley) October 28, 2015
@ChrisPerkinsDnD It's also spelled "Elversult" in the 4e material. So I guess the question is: Did the city change the spelling of its name?
— Jonathan Longstaff (@pukunui81) October 28, 2015
Nope, you're right. I was confusing Elversult with Evermeet. https://t.co/6Fe9ZDvLTv

Prestige class and Faction
@sethistanLiking the prestige class playtest ideas, but would really like to see them tied to factions. that's a good idea – I think there's definitely more room to make the organizations behind them interesting
