@MPaytashIf any character can have mounts/animal companions that can attack, then doesn’t this lessen the value of the beastmaster path? most mounts you can buy lack attacks — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 30, 2014

@JacobWNoormanWhen a Sorcerer spends 2 Sorcerer points to generate a spell slot, is that slot then permanent? If not, when does it “go away”? long rest — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 30, 2014

@ReubenFontana @JeremyECrawfordWhen a spellcaster gains a level, and thus access to new spell slots, are those slots immediately available? I'd rule yes — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 30, 2014

@DrOctPsionics…thoughts? I need to know. For a friend. Who lives on Athas. been thinking about it – key to me is making effects unique v. magic, rather than duplicating existing spells — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 30, 2014

@syberghostdoes Arcane Ward matter for Power Word Kill? nope — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 30, 2014

@PeterForward5e rule. I know a caster can’t use 2 spell slots on turn via bonus action, pg 202 phb. Does this apply to reactions? don't believe it does — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 27, 2014

@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 — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 27, 2014

@Brail4 @JeremyECrawfordCan you maintain Concentration during a short rest and still spend your HD?Or must choose one or the other? I'd rule you can spend HD and concentrate — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) September 27, 2014
