Just leaving a comment here: there's no need for sleep to be in 8 hour long sessions. What i mean is that You could sleep around 6 hours, wake up, do your stressful activities, sleep another couple of hours, more work, eat something, sleep another 6 hours, stress stress stress, eat, sleep and so...

Verbal components aren't really important in what one says: It's the pitch and resonance that's what triggers the spell. The reason one can't really talk is about as important as the verbal component itself. "mute" but can still emits sounds of some sort it might still be possible for him/her to...

I would also add to the point that a strenuos activity of one hour or longer does not END a long rest: It interrupts it. No matter how long you have been resting for if you take an hour doing something that is not resting before the long rest ends you have to start from scratch since RAW tells...

Nowhere. Unless you consider that you have to apply common sense. If we really want to go into reading deep: When a new day begins for long rests, with "day" being "adventuring day". For short rests: When you have finished what you were doing to take a breather. Can't really say why this...

So it's a "bad" unique, as Freedom of Movemement is a "bad" unique. A hole in rules. Why? Because there ARE other spells that lets you cast while you are casting: Glyph of Warding and Contingency for example. Those spells directly state that you cast spells while you are casting. While these two...

And this is where i mentioned the mechanical problem. You, as a DM, will end up either with a player that cannot cast a spell, or a rest that never ends. How? The character that the player is playing as has no spell slots free. Now either he has reached the END of the rest and regained his slot...

It is unique by 5e standards. It is true. If i move less than what is required to get out of your reach, i do not trigger an opportunity attack. If i move less than what is required to enter your reach while you have Polearm Master, i do not trigger your Opportunity attack. Mechanically on a...

Yeah, the point being that this is THE ONLY CASE this happens. Its really the exception of exceptions on how unique and particular that is. It's WEIRD. Even in the very strange case of being first in a turn and falling... casting Featherfall (assuming you used your reaction your last round yadda...

I do however find that: Casting a spell as a bonus action does prevent you to counterspell, but casting a spell as an action does not; Casting a spell while casting another spell is a thing; Having the above go against pretty much every other part of the phb as much as interrupting actions and...

Only if you consider the fact that i meant that casting a spell interrupted a long rest and that's not what i intended to mean. What i meant is that there's a definite end to a long rest and there has to be. The first example you made was a clear 9 hour long rest. The second you just posed as...

There' s a mechanical difference actually. You only regain resources at the end of a long rest. If the long rest does not have a clear and definite "end" then things gets messy and possibly narratively strange.

I would focus on the "reading" and "tending wounds" as between the examples provided are those that are most stress inducing and the ones that actually call for "concentration" on part of those doing the action. Reading requires concentrating on what is actually being read to understand what is...

Actually the relevant text says that a caster can target himself when a spell allows the caster to choose what creatures a spell should affect. Hypnotic pattern does not offer this option, as such a caster is always affected by hypnotic pattern. Being able to select a target does not make a...

Player might have a point tho. Never thought about it that way, but Enemy Caster would be doing 2 things at once for at least a fraction of turn: Casting Fireball, getting interrupted by Counterspell, interrupting his own casting of Fireball by casting Counterspell. For a time it's casting both...

"An apple" is not "the apple" and is not "that apple". "An apple" is "any apple". "a subsequent turn" means any turn after the one where the creature dies. In case of Hex it's further specified to be a turn of yours; as such the warlock can only Hex someone on its own turns.

Freedom of Movement provides different benefits: Target is unaffected by difficult terrain Spells and magical effects in general are unable to reduce the Target speed or cause it to become Restrained or Paralyzed Target can spend 5ft of movement to automatically break free of non magical...

Paraxis Just to put some logs on the fire: Actually, for the purpose of Magic Missile, it's not the Assassin scoring the hit, it's the darts. The assassin is only casting the spell.

I think you missed Freedom of Movement and its "spend 5ft of movement while grappled" part. Nothing too difficult to fix in house, but still needing official clarification.

It also says that it must obey any wish from his creator. And that personality and memories are the one of the creature thatis being taken as model for the simulacrum. Even if the model hated you and just wanted to see you dead, the spell makes that the "memories" and "personality" are after the...

It obeys command and wishes. Being friendly it's something different. It's created to obey commands. It's compelled to do so. It cannot resist. Even if it still has memory and personality of the original creature. You can order a lion to strictly follow a vegetarian diet. It will NOT be happy...
