[QUOTE="Ilbranteloth, post: 7231521, member: 6778044"] Oh, no. Come back from the Dark Side. That's not the case. Jeremy responded to my tweet. For some reason I can't pull up his response on the Twitter site, so I'll have to type it: My question: Can you cast a spell as a bonus action, a cantrip as an action, and a spell as a reaction in the same round? Jeremy: Casting a bonus action spell means no other spells that turn but a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action. Again, the use of "that turn" which is exactly the problem in my mind. It's really "that round" as best as I can understand. He continues to say "no other spells but cantrip." Further more, if the rule is "cantrip with a casting time of 1 action" then you can't ever use your reaction to cast a spell in this circumstance, even if it is a cantrip with a casting time of 1 reaction. So I asked: Why fireball then feather fall, but not misty step then feather fall? There are no cantrips with a CT of reaction. We'll see if he answers. But no, the official rule is that once you cast a spell with a casting time of 1 bonus action, you've forgone the possibility of casting a spell with a reaction in that entire round. [/QUOTE]
