Am I the only one that thought the intent of Great Weapon Fighting was that you could re-roll ALL damage dice, including Smite or Hunter's Mark or whatever?

This is a bit of a NERF, but may not be uncalled for.

Nope, I was pretty sure it was all dice as well.

Me too, and in truth, in my games, I'll still rule that it applies to all dice. It's just easier for me.

[MENTION=1288]Mouseferatu[/MENTION] Multi-beam spell like E-Blast: Choose all targets at once? Or can you hit with one, see result, choose next target, etc?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford The intent is that you can choose an attack spell's targets one after another, unless the spell says otherwise. #DnD
[MENTION=36106]joe[/MENTION]Ramsdell Do the effects of Storm of Vengeance (9th level Druid Spell) stack? Or do the effects change each turn?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford In the spell storm of vengeance, each new effect replaces the effects of previous rounds. #DnD
[MENTION=33016]Apoc[/MENTION]alypticTwit Does Mage Armor count as Armor?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford The mage armor spell doesn't count as armor. #DnD

@QueerSeer Using 5ft squares, does "Cloud of Daggers" affect a single square, or each square surrounding the square its cast on.
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford Cloud of daggers (5 ft. cube) can affect 1+ squares on a grid, unless the DM says effects snap to the grid. #DnD
[MENTION=41255]dnd[/MENTION]Paladin the text in PHB is wrong then, it clearly states that it fills 5ft, on each sides, thats missleading a lot.
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford It does, indeed, fill a 5 ft. cube, but there are many ways to position that cube on a grid.

@NGirbes Does a polymorphed creature revert to its original form when drops to 0HP by suffocation, or it dies outright? #dnd5e
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford The target of polymorph reverts to its true form when it drops to 0 hp or dies, regardless of cause. #DnD

@b_coulthard Surprise rules work for 2 sides. What happens with surprise when a 3rd side sneaks up/hidden from the melee and ambushe
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford The surprise rule is only relevant when a combat starts. Any ambushes during the fight use the stealth rules. #DnD
[MENTION=47144]Dimitris[/MENTION]Gkelis Does grappling/shoving an enemey creature end a Sanctuary spell cast on you?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford Grappling/shoving an enemy does end the sanctuary spell on you, since you have made an attack. #DnD

@Ophannin117 Is the intent that a Bard gets to know amount rolled for attacks before using Cutting Words or should they always guess?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford You can use Cutting Words after seeing the roll, but before any of the roll's effects are resolved. #DnD
[MENTION=38734]Fmac[/MENTION]anadaguy Does it apply to any type of damage roll including auto hit spell like finger of death? Not just melee or ranged damage?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford Cutting Words: Damage type doesn't matter. #DnD
[MENTION=53757]Inxanity[/MENTION]1 Storm Sorcerer: Tempestuous Magic. Do you need to land at the end of the 10ft, or do you stay afloat?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford Tempestuous Magic doesn't hold the sorcerer aloft after the 10 ft. flight. #DnD
[MENTION=27392]Kas[/MENTION]eyumland Do Remarkable Athlete or Jack of All Trades trigger Reliable Talent?
[MENTION=4036]Jeremy[/MENTION]ECrawford For a rogue/fighter or rogue/bard, Reliable Talent does work with Remarkable Athlete and Jack of All Trades. #DnD
