If you take a quarter off the shelf, you can pick it up with your left or right hand. If you take someone's advice, you can still pretend to be ignoring her. If you take a look at something, you can squint. If you take a selfie, you can use a special filter to make yourself look pretty. With...

I don't think that applies to simplicity that runs contrary to verisimilitude. Unnatural and arbitrary constraint adds complexity and takes the player out of the game.

I don't know about that, it caused me to just say "to hell with it" and house rule away the need for an Attack Action altogether both for Shield Master and for Two-Weapon Fighting (you still have to make a "main hand" attack, but it can be an attack that is part of another action, like Cast a...

Totally not the case, from a simple grammatical perspective. "If you take the Attack action on your turn" is not the same as "after you take the attack action," nor is it the same as "once you have completed the attack action in its entirety," nor is it in any other way past tense. "You take" is...

Maybe this time when they publish a book of Greyhawk material, they will go ahead and open up Greyhawk on the DM's Guild.

You do love your absolutes, Max. The way the game was written and clarified was, for several years, that you could take your Shield Master shove whenever you wanted to. Now, Crawford has decided that he must have been drunk and in line at the grocery store when he tweeted that, and just didn't...

Figured that was covered by making it a spell you're concentrating on.

I think the commitment is the key. I have no problem with saying that you can strictly adhere to the published rule and still take your bonus action first, but doing so means you can only use your Action to take the Attack Action on that turn. You are committed. There is a huge distinction...

I think for any NPC with a bounce-back ability (like undead fortitude, or the half-orc racial) I would just give the NPC advantage on the saving throw vs. disintegration. Succeed and it has 1 hp, fail and it is dust. In the wind.

The way we apply area effects is that a square (and anyone in it) is in the area if the effect covers half or more of the square. That means a 5 ft square area could cover half of two adjacent squares and effect both, but if the area were placed at the junction of 4 squares it would cover less...

It's not a house rule. Your interpretation, or ruling at your table, is simply applying the published rules appropriately to the circumstances of your game. Jeremy's interpretation of the published rule is no more valid than yours in general, and much less valid than yours in your game and at...
