Beginner´s question: Melee attacks cause a DEX saving throw?
Hello,
I have read the PHB and recently I got the DMG. Last night I read Jeremy Crawford´s article on ability checks and I am somewhat confused.
The DMG says that the DEX saving throw is to use to "dodge your way out of damage".
If in your turn you decide to Dodge then you do get a DEX saving throw.
Does this mean that every time someone gets attacked by melee they get a DEX saving throw? The spells specify of the victims are allowed to do a saving throw...
Thanks in advance for your answers.
