[QUOTE="ClaytonCross, post: 7317135, member: 6880599"] I don't think this limitation applies to reaction spells like shield for example. That said the bonus limitation is to your turn, so casting shield as a reaction on the same round during an enemies turn is not denied at all, nor would cast Feather Fall for being knocked off a ledge by a warlocks repelling blast for example. It seems to me that the reaction effect on your turn or on another s turn would supper seceded the action economy of bonus action / action the same way action surge does. If I use Action: cast greater invisibility, Bonus action quicken meta magic: fire bolt, action surge cast action: fire bolt, and reaction cast: shield/counter spell on my enemies turn for example there is not issue. So the semantic hate is basically only against slow-fall? I tried to find a sage advice clarification but could not. I would just rule it a cleaver use of under used spell since its not the limit of casting the spell in the round that holds it back. "B o n u s A c t io n A spell cast with a bonus action is especially swift. You must use a bonus action on [B]your turn[/B] to cast the spell, provided that you haven’t already taken a bonus action this turn. You can’t cast another spell during the same turn, except for a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action." "R e a c t io n s Some spells can be cast as reactions. These spells take a fraction of a second to bring about and are cast in response to some event. If a spell can be cast as a reaction, the spell description tells you exactly when you can do so."
