Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lazybones" data-source="post: 9628439" data-attributes="member: 143">Here is my list from my current 2024 campaign. We're also keeping the flanking rule and the optional diagonal movement rule. Most of these are just clarifications to preempt some of the arguments/exploits I've seen discussed on this board.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A creature can lose the Invisible condition granted by a successful Stealth check if they enter the direct line of sight of another creature without the benefit of cover, barring some mitigating situation (e.g., distraction, obscurement, lighting or absence thereof). The DM will determine if a situation warrants the loss of the Invisible condition, but will notify the character attempting to use Stealth beforehand if possible (e.g., if a Guard standing in a brightly lit area appears to be alert and looking directly at the spot where the Stealthed character is hiding).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For convenience on a grid, a creature that is being grappled is placed in any of the squares adjacent to the grappling creature, at the grappler’s discretion. However, if the grappler moves the grappled creature into a hazard (e.g., a bonfire, a chasm, an area of spike growth), both the grappled creature and the grappler are affected by it. If the grappler would like to push the grappled creature into the hazard without being affected themselves, they can do so by using the Unarmed Attack (Shove) action.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The spell conjure minor elementals scales to +1d8 damage per spell level over 4.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">For purposes of the duration of temporary hit points, specific language in the descriptions of a spell or ability takes precedence over the general duration listed on page 29 of the Player’s Handbook. Thus, if a spell or ability with a limited duration grants the temporary hit points, they go away when the spell or effect ends.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Attacks of Opportunity can only be made against enemies/foes. This is stated in the rules on page 26 of the Player’s Handbook, but some people have argued that you can use them against allies (e.g., that a cleric with the Warcaster feat can heal a friend who walks past them in combat) because the word “foe” does not appear in the subpassage “Making an Opportunity Attack.”</li> </ul></blockquote>
