@West_Thijs_23I only think that the nature’s wrath and turn fey abilities are not very useful/under-powered. What’s your take on them? /2 Turn the Faithless is great when you face fey or fiends. Nature's Wrath can be crazy good; restrained is a nasty condition.

Can you retrain feats in 5th edition?
@MajorDewarCan you retrain feats in 5th edition, i’ve searched everywhere. Any answer from you will be awesome. There's no retraining rule for feats. If you'd like to redo parts of your character, consult with your DM, who might allow it.

If a Sorcerer casts a spell with only V S components using Subtle Spell, can it be Counterspelled?
If a Sorcerer casts a spell with only V and/or S components using Subtle Spell, can it be Counterspelled?
Subtle Spell is meant to protect a spell w/o material components from counterspell, since you can’t see the casting. https://t.co/Q7IhCeMWhH

Can an artificer’s Spell-Storing Item be activated with the Use an Object action, or is it considered a magical item?
@JeremyECrawford Can an artificer's Spell-Storing Item be activated with the Use an Object action, or is it considered a magical item?
— Eric Do (@derekleeketchum) February 21, 2020
The D&D artificer's Spell-Storing Item feature doesn't turn an object into a magic item.
That said, you could use the feature on a magic item. #DnD https://t.co/7xcLlR1Aoe

Does this mean one could activate a Spell-Storing Item with the additional action granted by the haste spell?
— Eric Do (@derekleeketchum) February 21, 2020
If you use the action of the D&D haste spell to take the Use an Object action, that object can’t be a magic item, since Use an Object works only with nonmagical items, as clarified in the DMG.
If the item of Spell-Storing Item is nonmagical, it’s usable with Use an Object. Most appreciative, thank you.

So is the action for casting a spell from a wand just a special unique action for that wand? Wand of fireball is "Use wand of fireball", its neither cast a spell nor use an object? Or does that instead depend on the casting time given for the wand?
— Girl Lover 3000 (@viviwizardshark) February 21, 2020
When a D&D magic item requires an action for its use, that action is a special action, not the Use an Object action.
On official DM screens, such as DM's Screen Reincarnated and the screen in the Essentials Kit, we call that special action Use a Magic Item. #DnD https://t.co/U6hOJ1f4wa

Would a Warforged get detected by Detect Magic?

— Dellerz DNF (@Dellerz_DNF) April 20, 2020
Warforged are given life by magic, but magic doesn't fuel them once they're alive. The D&D rules therefore don't treat them as magical. #DnD https://t.co/JgOdas4Dbn
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) April 20, 2020
Ah, this is a point of view I hadn’t considered. This way warforged player characters could walk into an antimagic field without fearing it interfering with their circuits(?) Sure thing! 😊

Detect Magic: a wizard concentrating on a spell, do I sense the wizard is concentrating on it?
@IgorRuffinengo If I cast detect magic, and a wizard concentrating on a spell is in range, do I sense the wizard is concentrating on it? Detect magic can tell you that a spell is in effect within range, but not that someone is concentrating on it.

Is the Staff of Fire usable by Bards or Druids?
@DastionIs the Staff of Fire usable by Bards or Druids? The HOTDQ and Rise of Tiamat supplements disagree. The staff of fire is usable by druids, not bards. The HOTDQ supplement will get updated to reflect that fact.

Booming Blade, did you intend for standing up from prone to trigger the extra damage?
@JeremyECrawford For Booming Blade, did you intend for standing up from prone to trigger the extra damage? It costs movement.
— Thomas Bechtel (@thomas_bechtel) November 5, 2015
Standing up costs movement but moves you nowhere. To move while prone, you crawl or use magic (PH, 191). #DnD https://t.co/QZakD4Tv5X
