[QUOTE="dmnqwk, post: 6755863, member: 6804204"] Well here's where you cannot. Either you apply the dust effect to Snuggles, then you revert to your normal form as a result of the wild shape ending; Or you revert to your normal form as a result of the wild shape ending, then you check the condition "was target reduced to 0 hit points" and the answer is no, Amrien has not been reduced to 0 hit points. There's no scenario in which you can assume the past is the present. I understand attempts to twist it, I considered those myself, but unfortunately you cannot apply the condition "reduced to 0 hit points" to Amrien, because Amrien was not reduced to 0 hit points, Snuggles was. Of course, a DM can make a house ruling however they like, but it's quite clear that even if Snuggles is disintegrated and then exists as the pile of grey dust (think Gaseous Form spell if you're considering it impossible for Amrien to exist temporarily as a pile of grey dust.) after which Snuggles reverts to Amrien and lives to fight another day.. we hope! As for Maxperson believing "they screwed up Disintegrate" this is your opinion, and not fact. You shouldn't go around telling people they screwed up because you don't see how logical it is that the Druid can be dusted, then reforms as per the written rules. [/QUOTE]
