What you do later on, when the trigger occurs, is therefore not using your action - it's using a reaction that mimics an action.
You're using your action for the Ready action, and you use it on your turn, potentially along with movement and a bonus action. When you "ready an action", you don't actually take your action outside of your turn. (It doesn't reason that you can't ready a bonus action therefore you can't use it out of turn, which would appear consistent with the rules.)įurthermore, readying reactions is only useful if you want to delay a reaction that normally happens before its trigger so that it instead happens after its trigger, which is both rarely useful and not the sort of thing that fits with most of the official rules-changes/rewrites the design team has poured out thus far.Īre actions or movement normally usable off-turn? Is there any use for Ready beyond reaction timing given this official rules change? Is there a more recent errata overturning this one? What's going on here?
But you can't use actions or moves out-of-turn either, so the same logic seems to invalidate most use of the ready action, leaving only reactions readyable.
It seems to say that specifically because you can't use a bonus action out-of-turn, you can't therefore ready it. This official change to the rules confuses me. (from Crawford's official twitter rules channel thingy.) You, therefore, can't use Ready with a bonus action. I recently learned that you can't ready bonus actions, because you can't ready any action that can normally be performed only on your turn:Ī bonus action can be taken only on your turn.
