Yeah, I give up. He's directly responding to a question about the Shield Master bonus action, specifically whether you have to complete all attacks from Extra Attack or if the bonus action's condition (i.e. timing requirement) "if you take the Attack action on your turn" is satisfied after the...

Let me quote it again, as you seem to be ignoring what JEC is saying. Original question: https://twitter.com/DerynDraconis/status/1105201798837608448 "Great Master JeremyECrawford I don't understand, lot of confusion to me! RAW with Extra Attack can I use the Shield Master bonus action after...

And just to be clear, JEC disagrees with you, but I'm sure you knew that already. https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford/status/995319563523784704 "D&D combat is sequential, with no action-declaration phase at the beginning. Your turn can also be interrupted by someone’s reaction. Such an...

JEC has come out and said that tweet was incorrect. Here's a tweet from this week with the word "intent" in it, just so there's no confusion: https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford/status/1105204044610428929 "The simple by-the-book way (RAW) to determine whether you've completed an action is to...
