I always roll for each missile damage. They auto-hit, always have and always will for me.
It makes more sense if you treat magic missile as an AoE spell, just one with interesting targeting. When you cast fireball, you roll damage once and apply the same number to every target. Apply the same reasoning to magic missile, with the only difference that a creature in a fireball only gets hit once but a creature in a magic missile can be hit more than once.Have you ever rolled one die and applied the result to each missile before 5e? For me, I'm always going to roll damage for each missile instead of once for the whole spell.
Per missile of course. Sounds like a Twitter brainfart from the "Sage" (LOL).
I wouldn't be happy at any player who started pointing to tweets as a rules source.
I support the Sage normally and even I say his selective reasoning here is dubious - albeit official.How about those who point to actual rules printed in the PHB which support the Sage's statement, or are you too busy laughing at your own "wit" to care about such things?
