[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 7229094, member: 16814"] I'll try again. Reactions are not part of your turn, even if they hasten during your turn. We can tell because the rules provide what you can do on your turn and reactions aren't part of it (you get a move, and action, and maybe a bonus action). Reactions are a special action that can happen anytime - during your turn, during someone else's turn, whenever it's trigger happens. So far, so good. Here's the bit that I'm saying. The restriction on casting due to bonus action casting is a specific rule that trumps the general rule of what you do on your turn. That's the extent of the exception: only what you can do with your turn is affected. Therefore, even though your reaction may trigger during your turn and occur on it, outs not part of your turn (it's a special action outside of what you can do on your turn), and so restrictions on what you can do on your turn do not apply to it. To sum up, the bonus cast restrictions only apply to the set of things you can do on your turn. A reaction is not part of your turn, though it may happen during it. Reactions are therefore not affected by restrictions on what you can do during your turn. [/QUOTE]
