@JeremyECrawford Does a paladin's Lay On Hands feature require 'a free hand' – or can they use it as long as they are close enough to touch?

Lay on Hands requires you to touch the target. The feature isn't concerned with how you execute the touch. #DnD https://t.co/L70cAAl8x0

@FatalisSmilodonGood to know I can ignore the title of the spell in determining how it works. You are welcome to play the feature's name literally. In which case, I recommend laying both of your hands on the target.

Most groups play a feature like Lay on Hands with the name in mind—laying on a hand. Yet the rules don't say what the touch entails #DnD https://t.co/Ou33yKmBmA

@TehPaigeyou mean the wounded don’t have to lay down on top of the paladin’s hands? Hahahaha!
