[QUOTE="Noctem, post: 6800328, member: 6801315"] Well in regards to the first sentence and second sentence, it's actually you who's making a claim without any sort of rules or flavor support since you're resorting to quoting rules from 2 editions ago. If the rule isn't found in 5e, it has no relevance for this discussion. That's simply not how it works in this edition. Rules change over time. If you can quote me a rule from 5e that says that putting a sharp object inside a bag of holding can cause it to get damaged (from the inside) and your contents are then lost to the Astral Plane, I'll reconsider what I've said and admit I was wrong. Or tweet Jeremy Crawford on twitter, he can give us the RAI for 5e. The 5e rules don't say what you're claiming though, that's why you had to quote 3.5e. However, what the 3.5e rules were in regards to something has no bearing on what 5e says about something. So no, a sentient weapon can't draw itself out of a scabbard or bag of holding. Putting sharp items inside a bag of holding will not damage, destroy or cause the contents to be lost to the Astral Plane. Items inside the bag can't damage the bag itself since they are on two different planes of existence, there's simply no physical way for that to happen and the rules don't give a way for that to happen in 5e. Time to let go of previous editions and get with the times :) [/QUOTE]
