This is the Way. If you're gonna be a Rules Lawyer, you rules Lawyer impartially.

incorrect! she can cast another concentration spell, she just loses the original. Case dismissed, I'm going to take a nap

The_Undying-Knight :
Yeah, with new DMs one issue I always see is the lack of confidence to say no to something because they don't know if it's true or not.

Avery :
hahaha excellent! I've played the role of rules prosecutor before and it worked quite well. the group had a first time dm and we all talked in session 0 about how I would be the rules encyclopedia if we had a rules question in game.

Actually you can cast a second concentration spell, you just need to end your concentration on the first one

Phoenix M.B. :
I feel like with a new DM it should be a bit of a collective effort of everyone at the table to learn and remember the rules well enough that they can help the session run smoothly and fairly. It will fall to the DM to make judgement calls and it's more important for them to know the rules than for anyone else, but they will need help and it gets a bit clunky if you have to check the rule books too often mid-session. Eventually they can probably handle it with less help, but to begin with it seems smart to work together to keep things fair and fun.

Eric Lee :
A DM of mine once referred to me as a "rules public defender" because I would remember people's buffs/debuffs, and he would often ask me for clarification on rules he couldn't remember

Gaby :
I gave my player a big d20 to remember they have concentration. Optionally that’s’ what they use to roll for it

Maniacal mojo :
i always give the dm room to make the call but explain what RAW would be. had a moment last session a player tried to use silvery barbs in a way that helped me and i explained the raw

Adrian_Brothers :
Between my brother and I, we have a borderline encyclopedic knowledge of commonly used weapons, spells, and actions in 5E. If I'm running a game, he'll be in the party on rulebook duty, and vice versa. If someone goes Rules Lawyer, he becomes a counter-lawyer and provides fair context.

MisinformationPolice :
Always call out the rules, 1000 adventurers in faerun and YOU get to use an action for a bonus action? But it’s important to then point at the DM quizzically, as if the dm says it’s cool, what can ya do?
