This bit of the advice tells us how a character with extra attack can access multiple weapon masteries in a single round It also explains using the dual wielder feat to get multiple attacks with the larger one handed weapon e.g battle axe and a single attack with a light weapon e.g hand axe.

It has been edited to the new rules https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/sae/sage-advice-compendium#FeatGreatWeaponFighting

It doesn't matter if the spells grant real invisibility and the hiding method doesn't. The outcome is the same. The invisible person gets the three benefits as stated in the condition. The opponent knows you are there and knows where you are. They can attack you with disadvantage if they wish...

I think 1) is one of the main sticking points of this discussion. Some of us think that in combat you should be able to walk out in the open and get all of the advantages of invisibility - exactly the same as magical invisibility. For what its worth, those advantages are pretty limited. Others...

I assume you know what the word most means?

These are clearly simplified combat rules, which is where most of the 5e status effects are used. Putting aside the name of the status effect itself, this does not actually make a character invisible and therefore its a bit pointless to worry about the guards on the gate example since that has...

We play an epic level campaign a couple of times a year which is a continuation of one we played in multiple older editions. The characters are around level 23 in terms of epic boons. It works well when the adventures are custom built for the characters, based on their own desires and plots as...

Could you block the first in the doorway? Otherwise if the fight looks too hard then retreat until a later time

If the party that is optimised, for example racial stats are matched to classes and ideal magic items are provided for characters (archer finds a +1 bow) then you can take on higher CR creatures and encounters than the DMG and/or official adventures suggest. If you give 5e another go and prefer...

I'm playing an elven fighter with 16 str, 18 dex and 12 con. 5e is very forgiving of your choices

A skill generally seems to be something you would train to be good at and I can't really think of a skill the relates specifically to endurance. In our game we call for quite a few checks that aren't skill related like monster knowledge, or gathering information so con doesn't really stand out...

In addition to hit points, Con is also used the determine how long a character can hold their breath, go without food, water or sleep or how long they can dash during a chase. Hit points are obviously the main benefit but we do a fair bit of running away and chasing during our games

When we played Princes of the Apocalypse the party 'rescued' a member of the water cult from the fire temple and led her from the temple. Water cult members are typically originally pirates and sailors. I'm going to play that character as a coastland ranger who happens to be an ex pirate and ex...

You know how a cube works? The caster is not in the middle of it. You choose one edge and it radiates away from you. Pretty easy to aim as the others have suggested.
