Dying to Know

Last I checked:

20 on a "death save" allows you to use Second Wind if you haven't done so already. I don't know if it has to be a natural 20 or a total of 20 (e.g. Human Perseverance).

Temporary HP cannot be earned at all unless you have at least 1 HP.

These were the rules at DDXP, and except for KotS's shortened death rules, I haven't heard anything to the contrary.

Man, everyone's throwing out different info. Oh well. Too close to release to get any offical response I suspect.
