Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Q46
The Ranger spell Ensnaring Strike--it's a concentration spell that takes affect on your first hit after casting. Once the attack hits, the target makes a saving through, and is (i think) restrained on a failure. Does the Ranger need to maintain concentration for the target to remain restrained, or is the target just restrained until it breaks free with a saving through no matter what? In other words, can I cast a different spell (say, Hunter's Mark) if I currently have a creature restrained with Ensnaring Strike?

Concentration
Some Spells require you to maintain Concentration in order to keep their magic active. If you lose Concentration, such a spell ends.
If a spell must be maintained with Concentration, that fact appears in its Duration entry, and the spell specifies how long you can concentrate on it. You can end Concentration at any time (no action required).
If Concentration ends, voluntarily or otherwise, the effects of the spell ends unless otherwise stated. You mist maintain Concentration to keep him restrained.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Question 49: Does the difference in text between Dark One's Own Luck and the Lucky feat mean that they trigger at slightly different times? Or, is D.O.O.L. supposed to be used at the same time as Lucky, after seeing your roll but before you know how it turns out?
Lucky: You roll, see it's a bad roll and decide to reroll, then find out the result.
D.O.O.L: You roll, find out the result, decide to add a d10 and see if that result succeeds.
Spoiler: Dark One's Own Luck(Warlock optional class feature, emphasis mine)
When you make an ability check or a saving throw, you can use this feature to add a d10 to your roll. You can do so after seeing the initial roll but before any of the roll’s effects occur.
Spoiler: Lucky(Feat, emphasis mine)
Whenever you make an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can spend one luck point to roll an additional d20. You can choose to spend one of your luck points after you roll the die, but before the outcome is determined. You choose which of the d20s is used for the attack roll, ability check, or saving throw.Last edited by gr8artist; 2018-08-17 at 09:13 PM.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
R47 (Reference to Q47) It is a subset of the ‘mechanic’ of Armor Proficiency. The rules don’t specify the armor’s material because that’s up to the DM.
ToA Spoiler Example: In Tomb of Annihilation there’s Chitin Plate Mail made from the remains of a Scorpion. For a Druid with the Heavy Armor Master feat it’s a wearable item.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Usually, the order in which things happen is obvious. Sometimes, two or more things are written to occur at the same time. For example, two things might occur 'at the end of your turn'. In such cases, the person controlling that creature (player for PCs, DM for everything else) chooses the order in which they are resolved.
In your case, both Dark One's Own Luck and Lucky both occur after the d20 is rolled but before the outcome is determined and the effects occur. Therefore, the player chooses the order (or the DM chooses if the warlock is an NPC).

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
A50 yes, it will move with the item.
If the point you choose is on an object you are holding or one that isn't being worn or carried, the darkness emanates from the object and moves with it

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Q51 Where are racial features for geth player characters (which book)? Alternatively, can someone just list them?
If you cast Dispel Magic on my Gust of Wind, does that mean you're disgusting?
In real estate, they say it's all about location, location, location. In D&D I say it's about action economy, action economy, action economy.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Q 47 Druid's wion't wear metal armor. They're proficient in all light and medium armor. It's more of a religious conviction, like Jews avoiding eating pork. I'm sorry I don't have the reference but Jeremy mentioned at some point in a podcast or something that it was never intended as a mechanical limitation that would imbalance if gone; just a flavor thing.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
To be fair, armored animals (like the warhorse) are variants; and it is probably assumed that the horse has in fact been trained in whatever barding it is given. Ultimately whether a DM allows a particular animal access to an armor proficiency or not is their call to make.
To readdress the original-ish quandary of Q52:
A wildshaped druid can wear any light or medium armor/barding; assuming it is made to fit its form. It will not use metal barding though, because its still a druid.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
What reason do you have to think that? Have you seen official stats on an animal with armor on? I don't recall ever seeing any but I could've missed it.
As DM, I would probably treat a warhorse as being proficient but that's just a judgment call that I think makes sense; not RAW as far as I know.If you cast Dispel Magic on my Gust of Wind, does that mean you're disgusting?

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
phb 144; Armor Proficiency. Anyone can put on a suit of armor or strap a shield to an arm. Only those proficient in the armor's use know how to wear it effectively, however. Your class gives you proficiency with certain types of armor. If you wear armor that you lack proficiency with, you have disadvantage on any ability check, saving throw, or attack roll that involves Strength or Dexterity, and you can't cast spells.
mm 9; ARMOR, WEAPON, AND TOOL PROFICIENCIES
Assume that a creature is proficient with its armor, weapons, and tools. If you swap them out, you decide whether the creature is proficient with its new equipment.
For example, a hill giant typically wears hide armor and wields a greatclub. You could equip a hill giant with chain mail and a greataxe instead, and assume the giant is proficient with both, one or the other, or neither. See the Player's Handbook for rules on using armor or weapons without proficiency.
The MM only allows you to provide proficiency swaps, and if you have nothing to swap, then you can't gain anything new. If you can find a Beast outside of an Armoured Warhorse, be my guest.

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
Q53 Could a creature casting command 'speak' its command with telepathy? Specifically, could a creature reply to another creature telepathically contacting it so they can issue the command in a language the creature understands?

A53
Telepathy makes no mention of speaking, which Command requires you to do.
Telepathy does not allow you to translate words into another language (that requires the Tongues spell), nor does it give you the ability to discern what languages the target knows (Detect Thoughts needed for that).

Q54
Creature with flying (adult green dragon) reaches medium creature, sucessfully grapples it. Flies up. At a certain height, creature with flying tries to drop medium creature. How could medium creature hold onto creature with flying (mechanically)? Would it be grapple rules all over again?

Re: Simple RAW for 5e 4: Smackdown v. RAW
A54 There is no way for a creature to hold on. The Grapple rules require a creature to be no larger than one size larger than you (an Adult Dragon being Huge). There are variant rules in the DMG called "Climb onto a bigger creature" (pg 271), which allow a creature to move on to a larger one and move around its body as if in difficult terrain after making an Acrobatics or Athletics check contested by an opponents Acrobatics check, which are simple enough.
