Prove fireball doesn't give you immunity to psychic damage.There is nothing different, they are reactions, as clearly indicated in both cases:
This in turn allows one to to interrupt whatever is happening during someone else's turn.
- "you can use your reaction to deflect"
- "When the trigger occurs, you can either take your reaction"
Prove it. Where is it written in the rules ?
Deflect Arrows negates attacks because it says it negates attacks. If an ability doesn't say it negates attacks, then it doesn't negate attacks. It has nothing to do with being a reaction, and "interrupt" is not a general mechanic in 5e.
No, because shield and deflect arrows are specific abilities that cause an attack to miss. If the target teleports away just before you attack it you never make the attack in the first place.They have wasted their attack exactly the same way that if the opponent had used a shield or deflect missiles.
"Declare an attack" is not a mechanic in 5e.They have declared an attack
Targeting does not use up an attack., they have target an individual,
If they have rolled to hit it is too late to teleport away. Either you teleport before the attack roll, in which case the attack in not made because there is no legitimate target for the attack, or you teleport after the attack roll, in which case the attack roll is resolved and may hit. Unlike Shield, teleporting away does not affect attack rolls.they might even have rolled a hit.
Sure they finish the spell and teleport away. But since the attacker can't target them they can't make an attack roll, they can't use up an attack.But once again, RAW, nothing prevents someone to use all these as perceivable circumstances that allow one to finish casting a readied spell.
Sure. Plus a few rules that are not there.5e is very flexible, I'm just using the very standard rules and wording in there.
