@JeremyECrawford Recent sage advice you said that martial arts affects Tabaxi, in an older one you said it doesnt affect natural weapons.

Look at the rule for tabaxi claws in Volo's Guide to Monsters. That text says the claws can used as unarmed strikes—a special ability. #DnD https://t.co/vKyi2HDa2C

@zanderkreegan it’s intentional that a firbolg that’s invisible from Hidden Step can cast a beneficial spell, right? Yes.

@JeremyECrawford why do the Tabaxi use strength as their modifier for their claw attack? Would it be fair to make it a dex attack instead?

— Tyler McConnell (@JT_McConnell) November 4, 2016

A melee attack uses Strength by default. If you'd like to use Dex. with your unarmed strikes, I recommend becoming a monk. #DnD https://t.co/kDeNmfS3QT

@GX_SigmaWait, natural weapons count as unarmed strikes now? What in my tweet sparks that question?

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) November 5, 2016

@GX_SigmaI just always thought natural weapon attacks (claw, bite, etc) do not qualify as “unarmed” because they are using “weapons” My tweet doesn't contradict that.

@JeremyECrawford Hey Jeremy, how does Bugbear's extra reach and grappling work, would the grapple break at the end of the turn if 10ft away?

— Harvey Williams (@HarvDWilliams) November 15, 2016

Look at the grappled condition (PH, 290) for how it interacts with reach. Hint: a grapple ends when you escape its reach. #DnD https://t.co/LlLcp2FHm7

@JeremyECrawfordMy previous tweet contains the answer. But is there something specific to shoving that is causing you some confusion? It seems like "cheating" when it normally costs an action to contest a grapple, and would also be a free disengage.

@wdalrightIt seems like “cheating” when it normally costs an action to contest a grapple, and would also be a free disengage. If you're using the general shoving rule, you're using your action. Either way, getting out of the grapple cost you an action.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) November 15, 2016

@wdalrightIf you have only have one attack. If you have extra attack(s), the shove only replaces one of them. That's working as intended.

@DelugeIA Gnoll Flesh Gnawer (Volo p154): Should it have a Strength of 14? Otherwise attack and damage bonuses don’t jive. It's using its Dex.

— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) December 5, 2016

@DelugeIADex for a bite attack? Okey dokey. A number of monsters in the MM do this as well.
