    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    I feel like the difference is, all magic users are tapped into the weave. Spellcasters know instantly when the weave is being manipulated, whereas a nonspellcaster will have to wait for visual reactions. The problem becomes then, how do they know when the wizard is actually casting the spell...

    It wouldn't waste the reaction, if they react and still attack the caster.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    Read the component to counterspell. You're telling me someone with a bow or sword can act with the same speed when not knowing if and when a spell is going to be cast?

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    You're speaking semantics. You may be able to get 2 in a round once before your turn and once after, but you can't get 2 in every round.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    Special rules trump normal rules. The 1st line of counterspell explains how it works.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    No, unless they had an ability that allows them to do that like the monster player's counterspell ability.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    An attack is part of the attack action, but sometimes you get an attack as part of a bonus action (i.e. off hand atrack) or reaction(i.e. opportunity attack) in which case, you seldom get more than one attack in that fashion.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Ready Action - Ready action on your turn so that you can act later in the round using your reaction.

    Yes that response is ok. In my experience that's how readied actions are always used. "I'm readying my action to attack the first enemy I see, or get within my range."

    Tomb Of Levistus: very cool yet terrible, or did I miss something?

    Normally yes, but it specifically added the vulnerability in there, to put it on the temps. Special rules trump general.

    Tomb Of Levistus: very cool yet terrible, or did I miss something?

    The temps last until the end of your next turn, unless they are all destroyed on the 1st turn. You are only imprisoned as long as you have the temps, or until the end of your next turn in which case they melt away. It is created strictly to keep you alive against 1 powerful attack. Or 2 rounds...

    D&D 5E (2014) Red Flags For Classes In Sources Beyond The Player's Handbook

    I think in my next campaign, I will not allow feats at all and see how that works out.

    D&D 5E (2014) Red Flags For Classes In Sources Beyond The Player's Handbook

    The surprise ends, when the surpiser takes their turn, at that point the surprisee gets to use reactions as normal. Regardless you can always add circumstances when alert doesn't work I.e. when the characters are sleep.

    You're the one speaking out of line and misquoting people. I'm not the one looking foolish. I'm pretty sure no one here needs you to speak for them.

    D&D 5E (2014) Red Flags For Classes In Sources Beyond The Player's Handbook

    Alert: since there is no "surprise round" even if surprised, if a creature wins in initiative, it can still get its reaction. That doesn't mean an alert person can't be subject to an ambush. Observant: I usually only use passive for things that aren't actually hidden. Things that are...

    I was asking a specific person, hence why I quoted his post just like I did yours right now.

    D&D 5E (2014) Red Flags For Classes In Sources Beyond The Player's Handbook

    I would stick to official books, but why ban those feats you listed?
