Good morning/evening everyone.
My group and I had a discution late last night about Cunning action. We were wondering if the activation of a magic item does fall under the Use an object that require an activation as an action? Such as Rope of entanglement
Cunning Action
Also at 2nd level, you use your mobility to weave through the battlefield. Each turn in combat, you can use a bonus action to take the Dash, Disengage, Hide, or Use an Object action
Use an Object
Normally, you use an object while performing another action, such as drawing a sword while running forward or or an arrow as part of an attack. You are also able to interact with one object for free on your turn without spending an action (like opening an unlocked door, undoing a peace bond on a weapon, or tearing down a wanted poster). When an object otherwise requires your action for its use (like administering or drinking a potion), you take the Use an Object action, which can also be useful when you need to interact with more than one object on your turn.
Back of the good old day of 3.5, there was a difference between use magic item and use normal item
Also JC did gave mix message relating to Fast Hand from O5E, an opinion that I personally don't agree with.
