[QUOTE="Ashrym, post: 6484738, member: 6750235"] That's like saying the judge and prosecuting attorney are only two guys giving their opinions on laws at a trial. Jeremy Crawford is the official rules authority; if he says it then it is the official rule. Mike Mearls led the design team for the rules. Jeremy stated specifically that it's d4 on the bonus attack. Agree or not, that makes it the correct answer per the rules. They also clarify the intended function of rules. It's kind of hard to disagree that a rule is the official rule by disagreeing with the guys who wrote and determined the official rules, and dismissing it as opinion. You can follow them on twitter and see the rulings. We were instructed to tweet Jeremy for official answers when the PHB released. On that same note, I still allow shillelagh to work on the bonus attack with a staff using pole arm master because shillelagh isn't a great cantrip to start with and 2 more average damage on a single attack doesn't break anything in the game.
