Hey @JeremyECrawford If my spiritual Weapon and I are flanking a bad guy, the spirit gets adv because of flanking creature, but I do not?

The flanking rule in the DMG applies to creatures, as indicated in the rule. A spiritual weapon isn't a creature. #DnD https://t.co/tUZgKJaolB

@JeremyECrawford On a diff note, does a Warlock need prof. in a magic weapon to convert it to pact weapon, or does it become innate?

Pact of the Blade neither requires nor grants proficiency with a magic weapon that you turn into your pact weapon. #DnD https://t.co/9Bty55JcUQ

@SnarkConfidant RAW states “You are proficient with it while you wield it.” Therefore, it grants proficiency if you don’t already have it. You're quoting text that refers to a weapon the warlock creates, not a magic weapon that the warlock transforms.

@SnarkConfidant I’m reading the rule for the Pact Weapon, and you can turn a magic item into your Pact Weapon. And I'm explaining the intent of that text. A DM is free to rule otherwise.

@Alpha_GreedAs a DM I would say that the entity you’re sworn to would grant you the strength to wield the weapon to better serve them Go for it!
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 23, 2017
@wetsail @Alpha_Greed Also, keep in mind that you can create only a melee weapon, but you transform any kind of magic weapon.

@JeremyECrawford Mike chimed in ago, but asking 1 more time, does knocking a creature climbing with clb spd, cause it to Fall or land Prone?
— Jason Portt (@GrantsHero) February 28, 2017
No general rule causes a climbing creature to fall if knocked prone. As DM, I'd look at the environment and decide. #DnD https://t.co/xgYIdSYOzQ

@JeremyECrawford if a PC has prof in Intimidate, does that apply to Intimidate (Str) [out flex] or just to Intimidate (Cha) [bully/scare]?

Having proficiency in a skill means you get to use your proficiency bonus whenever you use the skill, no matter the associated ability. #DnD https://t.co/G11q7VcGod

@JeremyECrawford Can an open hand monk keep the benefit of tranquility if he uses the optional 'disarm' action detailed in the DMG?
— Galen Marek (@MarekApprentice) February 28, 2017
The Disarm action in the DMG refers to itself as an attack and involves an attack roll. It's an attack. #DnD https://t.co/yNaXxuIdTC

@Trogaf @ChrisPerkinsDnDdoes disengage work in/under water combat scenarios?
(Ez. vs. a shark, octopus, or sea snake?) Yes.— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) February 10, 2017
@JeremyECrawford Can non Druids learn Druidic? Also can non Rouges lean Thieves Cant? Not seeing that says they can't learn it.
— Barry Zanone (@BarryZanone) February 16, 2017
Languages—see "Languages" (PH, 123) for how to learn more of them, including the possibility of Thieves' Cant or Druidic. #DnD https://t.co/zg09M51p2u

@colinaoconnorCan you cast darkness on something being held or worn by an enemy? There’s a hair of ambiguity in the PHB about this. No.
