[QUOTE="Asgorath, post: 7775959, member: 6921966"] [url]https://twitter.com/JeremyECrawford/status/557816721810403329[/url] "As with most bonus actions, you choose the timing, so the Shield Master shove can come before or after the Attack action" So you're claiming that this is a statement of the original intent, and not a mistaken ruling made without referencing the actual text of the PHB? And that it's impossible for JEC to have forgotten about aspects of the rules and saw someone asking about bonus actions and so answered with the general rule for bonus actions which is "You choose when to take a bonus action during your turn" without really thinking about the finer details? I guess I just don't really follow how this particular tweet does show the design intent, while none of the dozens or hundreds of other tweets he's made about Shield Master do. This doesn't read like a statement of intent, in particular one where there's a clear distinction between RAW and RAI, it just reads like all his other rulings. Here are some other instances from the SAC that specifically talk about intent: Can you explain why you think the 2015 tweet on Shield Master is the one true source of intent? [/QUOTE]
