On a hit, you immediately roll damage, you do not get to cast a spell in-between these steps of making an attack. On a hit, you roll damage, unless the particular attack has rules that specify otherwise. What allows a bonus action to come between hitting your opponent and dealing damage but doesn't allow for movement or simply more attacks? This is also gone over in the section " Making An Attack" If I hit you, I cannot run away or cast a spell or do all sorts of other things before you actually take that damage. You cannot take a bonus action in-between hitting your opponent and dealing damage to them In your scenario you have already hit the enemy and are then casting a second thunderous smite, this would not do what you want because thunderous smite only deals its additional damage when you hit, and you have not actually hit any enemy while this thunderous smite was active (being concentrated on). The first time you hit with a melee weapon attack during this spell's duration Thunderous smite triggers when you hit somebody:
#Thunderous smite 5e series#
If you are not concentrating on your smite spell anymore, can you then use your bonus action to cast another smite spell and apply it to the attack before resolving the sequence of the attack, making a series of events that look like the following, assuming enough spell slots?Ĭast thunderous smite, gain concentrationĭeclare attack, starting your attack sequence. You attack and land the hit you are now ready to apply damage from your weapon and your smite spell.Īre you still concentrating on your smite spell at this point in the attack sequence? You have both an action and a bonus action ready this turn. If you cast another spell that requires concentration right now, the smite spell will end.
Say you have a smite spell cast on the previous turn, and you are concentrating on it.
Essentially this comes down to an order of operations question when it comes to concentration, in Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition.
