Does Guiding Bolt really do 4d6 as a first level cleric, or is that a misprint??
@RighteousAngstDumb question: does Guiding Bolt (Cl 1) really do 4d6 as a first level cleric, or is that a misprint?? 4d6 is correct – 14 damage for a spell, vs 7 to 10 damage per attack for a melee character

@jaceimba Monsters like Barlgura has a trait allows 40ft jump while having base move of 30. Does it need to dash to get the full benefit? I'd say no, but Crawford disagrees
