If you adapt a magic weapon into your pact weapon, it should also have sufficient value to qualify. Since your conjured pact weapon takes the form of a weapon from the weapons table, it also adapts the value, and qualifies for the material component. Pact of the Blade is a special pact available to Warlocks at 3rd level. Booming Blade no longer works with Spell Sniper.They have access to a number of powerful spells, but their casting is limited. Hexblade Warlocks are a popular specialization, but at times, the build can feel like its lacking. Green-Flame Blade no longer works with Spell Sniper. The Hexblade Warlocks patron exists somewhere in the Shadowfell, and it is from that place the powerful shadow weapons they wield in combat are shaped.The new wording does not lean on the range of the spell, but explicitly states that the target must be within 5 feet. You can see how a reach weapon would synergize really well with Booming Blade, by damage taxing a non-reach attacker each time they want to move into range.īut, this mechanic wasn’t preserved with the spell errata. This trick also works with a reach race, such as bugbear. This means on-spellcasting classes can take it for a direct power increase.Īdditionally, doubling spell range opened up the opportunity to use the blade cantrips with reach weapons, such as polearms. This feat works really well with the blade cantrips, because it gives you a cantrip when you take the feat. D&D Principal Rules Designer Jeremy Crawford confirms: It means that it only hits one target when you cast it.Īdditionally, for these purposes, although the blade cantrips now have a range of self, that doesn’t make the caster a target (which would disqualify us from using War Caster under the single target clause). Unlike Twinned Spell, you can cast the War Caster opportunity attack spell so long as it targets “only that creature.” This doesn’t mean that the spell must be incapable of hitting multiple targets. For our purposes, we’re focused on the third bullet point: The War Caster feat is a great option for any gish. Booming Blade can no longer be twinned.Green-Flame Blade can no longer be twinned.Here’s how it works:īy the plain language, you see “doesn’t have a range of self” and reason that adding “self” to the range of the blade cantrips locks them out from twinning.
Twinned Spell is a type of metamagic that can be used by a sorcerer (or anyone who took TCE’s new Metamagic Adept feat). The player now has the option of making Green-Flame Blade’s fire leap to a second target (it’s no longer mandatory). The material component of both spells now requires a melee weapon worth at least one silver piece. The wording was changed from “as part of the action to cast this spell, you must make a melee attack with a weapon against one creature within the spell’s range” to “you brandish the weapon used in the spell’s casting and make a melee attack with it against one creature within 5 feet of you.” The range was changed from “5 feet” to “Self (5-foot radius)”. There’s been a lot of speculation about how these changes interact with other gish kit options, and whether they change the way the spells work. A before-and-after comparison of the original vs.
