Addressing a nuance in the PH errata: the rule lets melee weapon attacks use unarmed strikes, despite those strikes not being weapons. — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 10, 2015 @corymacdonald It's in the errata document: "Instead of using a weapon to make a melee weapon attack, you can use an unarmed strike …" — Jeremy […]
@jeffvmaharIs it true that a Beastmaster’s animal companion will just sit there being attacked unless I use my action to command it? nope – dm's call, but it's still a creature, not a robot. would protect itself IMO — Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) June 14, 2015 @jeffvmaharOk great. Now if I use my action to give […]
@seekay“If you’re making an attack roll, you’re making an attack.” Is the inverse also true? Eg does MM trigger Hex? The inverse isn't true. Some special attacks, like grappling (PH, 195), don't include an attack roll. @mikemearls — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 13, 2015 @seekayThanks!

@JeremyECrawfordThe intent is resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning damage, regardless of source (MM errata preview).

For now, read "nonmagical weapons" as "nonmagical weapon attacks." — […]
@ChrisPerkinsDnD Did you already discuss how to pronounce Lolth? Is it LOL-th or Loth? Big discussion at our games. 🙂 Thanks in advance. — fieldmechanik (@fieldmechanik) June 9, 2015 The second L isn't silent. The O can be long (lowlth) or short (lawlth). https://t.co/Tw8Trh49b6 — Christopher Perkins (@ChrisPerkinsDnD) June 10, 2015
@JeremyECrawford Can a pinned creature use an action to attack with a freehand, or are they totally restrained until grapple is broken? — Ben Jackson (@oilpainting71) June 1, 2015 The restrained condition doesn't stop you from attacking. It imposes disadvantage on your attack rolls. https://t.co/UnNE4ixNxv — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 12, 2015
@JeremyECrawford Does Spell Sniper extend the range of touch spells? — Bryan (@Brianthas) June 12, 2015 The first benefit of Spell Sniper is intended to double numerical ranges only. https://t.co/W1V8n8NqwV — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 12, 2015
@_MataferElemental Affinity says one damage roll of a spell, not multiple. So scorching ray doesn’t add Cha to each ray that hits? That's correct. — Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 12, 2015
