Perguntas & Respostas de julho
para D&D 5E
A
Wizard of the Coast lançou nesta segunda-feira mais uma de suas postagens mensais
de perguntas e respostas sobre as regras do sistema D&D 5E. Jeremy Crawford
aborda, neste mês, questões ligadas à Características de Classe, Combate, Magia,
Monstros, ou seja, um pouco de tudo.
CLASS FEATURES
Is the Dueling
fighting style intended to support a shield?
Yes.
A character with the Dueling option usually pairs a one-handed weapon with a
shield, a spellcasting focus, or a free hand.
Does Uncanny
Dodge work automatically against every attack a rogue or ranger gets hit by?
Spell attacks too?
A
use of Uncanny Dodge works against only one attack, since it expends your
reaction, and only if you can see the attacker. It works against attacks of all
sorts, including spell attacks, but it is no help against a spell or other
effect, such as fireball, that delivers its damage through a saving throw
rather than an attack roll.
Does a monk
need to spend any ki points to cast minor illusion granted by the Shadow Arts
feature?
No.
The ki point cost in the feature applies only to the other spells in it.
Does a monk’s
Purity of Body feature grant immunity to poison damage, the poisoned condition,
or both?
That
feature grants immunity to both. As a result, a monk with Purity of Body can,
for example, inhale a green dragon’s poison breath unharmed.
Does a
sorcerer’s Wild Magic Surge effect replace the effect of the spell that
triggered it, or do both effects happen?
The
spell and the Wild Magic Surge effect both happen.
Does the
warlock’s Awakened Mind feature allow two-way telepathic communication?
The
feature is intended to provide one-way communication. The warlock can use the
feature to speak telepathically to a creature, but the feature doesn’t give that
creature the ability to telepathically reply. In contrast, the telepathy
ability that some monsters have (MM, 9) does make two-way communication
possible.
Is an
abjurer’s Arcane Ward healed only when the ward has 0 hit points?
The
ward regains hit points whenever the abjurer casts an abjuration spell of 1st
level or higher, not just when the ward has 0 hit points.
Does casting alarm as
a ritual heal Arcane Ward?
Any
abjuration spell of 1st level or higher cast by an abjurer can restore hit
points to his or her Arcane Ward. As is normal for healing, the ward can’t
regain more hit points than its hit point maximum: twice the wizard’s level +
the wizard’s Intelligence modifier.
How does
Arcane Ward interact with temporary hit points and damage resistance that an
abjurer might have?
An
Arcane Ward is not an extension of the wizard who creates it. It is a magical
effect with its own hit points. Any temporary hit points, immunities, or
resistances that the wizard has don’t apply to the ward. The ward takes damage
first. Any leftover damage is taken by the wizard and goes through the
following game elements in order: (1) any relevant damage immunity, (2) any
relevant damage resistance, (3) any temporary hit points, and (4) real hit
points.
Does the
wizard’s Potent Cantrip feature apply to cantrips with attack rolls or only to
saves?
Potent
Cantrip affects only cantrips that require a saving throw, such as acid splash
and poison spray.
COMBAT
Can a bonus
action be used as an action or vice versa?
For
example, can a bard use a bonus action to grant a Bardic Inspiration die and an
action to cast healing word? No. Actions and bonus actions aren’t
interchangeable. In the example, the bard could use Bardic Inspiration or
healing word on a turn, not both.
How does a
reach weapon work with opportunity attacks?
An
opportunity attack is normally triggered when a creature you can see moves
beyond your reach (PH, 195). If you want to make an opportunity attack with a
reach weapon, such as a glaive or a halberd, you can do so when a creature
leaves the reach you have with that weapon. For example, if you’re wielding a
halberd, a creature that is right next to you could move 5 feet away without
triggering an opportunity attack. If that creature tries to move an additional
5 feet—beyond your 10-foot reach—the creature then triggers an opportunity
attack.
Can you use
the Ready action to take the Dash action on someone else’s turn and then
combine the Charger feat with it?
No,
since you can’t take a bonus action on someone else’s turn.
SPELLCASTING
Can spell
attacks score critical hits?
A
spell attack can definitely score a critical hit. The rule on critical hits
applies to attack rolls of any sort.
If I have 10
temporary hit points and I take 30 damage from an attack while concentrating on
a spell, what is the DC of the Constitution save to maintain my concentration?
The
DC is 15 in that case. When temporary hit points absorb damage for you, you’re
still taking damage, just not to your real hit points. In contrast, a feature
like the wizard’s Arcane Ward can take damage for you, potentially eliminating
the need to make a Constitution saving throw or, at least, lowering the DC of
that save.
When you cast
a spell like conjure woodland beings, does the spellcaster or the DM
choose the creatures that are conjured?
A
number of spells in the game let you summon creatures. Conjure animals, conjure
celestial, conjure minor elementals, and conjure woodland beings are just a few
examples.
Some
spells of this sort specify that the spellcaster chooses the creature conjured.
For example, find familiar gives the caster a list of animals to choose from.
Other
spells of this sort let the spellcaster choose from among several broad
options. For example, conjure minor elementals offers four options. Here are
the first two:
One
elemental of challenge rating 2 or lower
Two
elementals of challenge rating 1 or lower
The
design intent for options like these is that the spellcaster chooses one of
them, and then the DM decides what creatures appear that fit the chosen option.
For example, if you pick the second option, the DM chooses the two elementals
that have a challenge rating of 1 or lower.
A
spellcaster can certainly express a preference for what creatures shows up, but
it’s up to the DM to determine if they do. The DM will often choose creatures
that are appropriate for the campaign and that will be fun to introduce in a
scene.
If I cast shillelagh on
my quarterstaff and have the Polearm Master feat, does the bonus attack use a
d4 or a d8 for damage?
The
bonus attack uses a d4. That attack is a function of the feat, not the weapon
being used.
MONSTERS
Is natural armor
considered light armor?
No.
Natural armor doesn’t fit into the categories of light, medium, and heavy
armor, and when you have it, it isn’t considered to be an armor you’re wearing.
Does natural
armor cap a creature’s Dexterity bonus?
Natural armor doesn’t limit
a creature’s Dexterity bonus
