Say that there is a hag coven and one is a night hag. If the night hag becomes ethereal, but stays within 30 feet of the other hags, does the coven still gain the benefit of shared spellcasting?

Rules state: A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from...

That's about as logical and concise as you can get. : ) Thanks.

Ahhhhh... this is interesting. I went back and looked at the actual description of the Lich Hound's attack. It states: Creatures that hear the howl of a lich hound within 100 feet must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 5 rounds. The frightened condition states: A...

Thanks all for the replies. During the game I called that being ethereal does break line of sight, and upon your replies and further consideration, I'm sticking with that ruling. Thanks again.

So, would you say that by closing your eyes, you would negate the frightened condition?

Does becoming ethereal negate line of sight? Here's the exact example: A creature (specifically a lich hound from Tome of Beasts) causes enemies around it to be frightened. The frightened condition remains while the creature is within line of sight. But the creature becomes ethereal. Does the...

Thanks all. On the fly last night I made a ruling that it moved around a smoke cloud. I doubted it at the time, but moved on. But I'm going to change that ruling going forward. Appreciate it.

Can telekinesis be used to move gas/smoke/fog/mist? Argument being that these are objects (of a sort) and TK affects objects. What say you?

Thanks! Do you know where this is noted officially, if it is?

If a monster uses its multiattack, must it use all the attacks? For example: a creatures multiattack allows it to attack twice with its fists, grapple and then bite. Can it just attack twice with its fists and not do the rest of the multiattack? Or... could it attack twice with its fists, NOT...

Thanks everybody. These are great tips!

Hi all, I'm DMing a 5E game with some older folks that have never played an RPG before. I've been playing since AD&D back in the day, but I've never introduced the game to people that have no clue about the game or role playing at all. This will more than likely just be a one-time thing, so...

Doh! Never mind. Thanks for clarifying. ;)

For example: Misty Visions. "You can cast silent image at will without spending a spell slot or material components." Does this mean you automatically "know" silent image? Or do you have to have silent image as one of your "Spells Known" in order to use these benefits?

My interpretation of Step of the Wind only requires the bonus action for the Disengage or Dash. The jump portion of the ki feature is not a bonus action. See the text: "You can spend 1 ki point to take the Disengage or Dash action as a Bonus Action on Your Turn, and your jump distance is...

Yes. That's how I'd go with it.

Thanks all. Made my decision. Blink will not trigger the Boom in my campaign.

Great point. Totally forgot about the duration of Booming Blade and timing of Blink. Nice catch.

Thanks for the replies everybody. Doesn't look like there's a clear consensus or rule for this. My initial feeling was frustration at what I thought seemed OP. But some of the replies here have changed my mind to allow it at X6. Super Monk Jumping would be super cinematic.
