@GrantsHero @mikemearlsDoes Warlock Fiendish Resistance work vs Flametongue’s fire dmg if the Fire dmg type was selected? It doesn't.

Does Thunderbolt Strike work against Medium creatures?
@celanunSo Thunderbolt Strike does not work against Medium creatures, only S or L? To do with weight displacement? It works against a creature that is Large or smaller.

If a transmutation wizard dies, does their transmuter’s stone lose its effects?
@JeremyECrawford if a transmutation wizard dies, does their transmuter's stone lose its effects?
— Cody (@MrYody) October 18, 2016
The transmuter's stone doesn't lose its magic if the transmuter dies. The text would say if it did. #DnD https://t.co/c5zleGBL28

Am I wrong giving a PC with a swim speed Disadvantage on attack rolls?
@Mazoshi1987Am I wrong giving a PC with a swim speed Disadvantage on attack rolls using a great sword or a war hammer under water? You don't suffer the disadvantage if you have a swimming speed.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) November 14, 2016
@JeremyECrawford Why would having a swimming speed effect your ability to use a fairly unwinnable weapons?
— Steven Connor (@Mazoshi1987) November 15, 2016
The underwater combat rules treat a swimming speed as representing a general fluency with aquatic motion. #DnD https://t.co/IMC8Hde4Wj

Would I be able to use hellish rebuke eith fire immunity?
@JeremyECrawford @mikemearls If I were hit with fire dmg & I had immunity to fire,would I be able to use hellish rebuke?
— Joe Tamburo (@Joetamburo) October 8, 2016
Hellish rebuke is triggered by you taking damage. No damage means no trigger. #DnD https://t.co/MK9PN2Euvc

Theoden/Aragorn/WilliamWallace… Persuasion or Performance check?
@JeremyECrawford @ChrisPerkinsDnD Theoden/Aragorn/WilliamWallace inspirational speeches to their armies: Persuasion or Performance check?
— Fausto Passarelli (@fau_pas) October 29, 2016
It's about intent. Persuasion seeks to inspire action. Performance seeks to provoke emotion not necessarily accompanied by action. #DnD https://t.co/RVISSSICCH

@JeremyECrawford What's a situation in which a character is not literally performing, that a Performance check would be a good fit?
— Tyler Bechstein (@wetsail) October 29, 2016
If you're not performing but Charisma is the dominant ability, pair it with a suitable skill. E.g., teach history: Charisma (History). #DnD https://t.co/CeIkjeDhix

@eugenemarshall @wetsailI call for DEX+performance when my bard juggles. That's a good pairing!

Can I cancel a “Natural 20 Critical Hit” using Cutting Words?
@JeremyECrawford Can I cancel a "Natural 20 Critical Hit" using Cutting Words?
— Leonardo Nocchi (@LeonardoNocchi) December 3, 2015
Cutting Words can't nullify a critical hit—no bonus or penalty can (PH, 194). [Overrides a deleted 12/3 tweet] #DnD https://t.co/AkbKQ2a5Xe
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 4, 2016
@JeremyECrawford @LeonardoNocchi But if you reduce the attack to less than your AC, you still can avoid it, right?
— Leonardo Raele (@LeonardoRaele) February 4, 2016
When you make an attack roll and get a 20 on the d20, you hit regardless of any bonuses or penalties (PH, 194). #DnD https://t.co/e8wCnC0xbw
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 4, 2016
@LeonardoNocchiPH, 194 says “modifiers or the target’s AC”. Cutting Words says “subtract from the roll”. It is not a penalty to the roll. Subtracting from a roll is a modifier—specifically a penalty.
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 5, 2016
@LeonardoNocchiHow about Champion’s Improved Critical? Can you “Cut Words” and cancel a critical? No.

Can I use Battle Magic with Green-Flame Blade?
@JeremyECrawford My valor bard has green Flame Blade (long story) so if i use it with BATTLE MAGIC can i still do the second attack?
— matthew morley (@GamingHippy) November 19, 2015
A spell must be a bard spell for you to work with the Battle Magic feature. #DnD https://t.co/O3cTswNYlZ
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 4, 2015
@GamingHippyfor me it is a bard spell. But thanks. Then yes, using Battle Magic, you can cast green-flame blade and also make a weapon attack as a bonus action.
