Thanks! Yes, Mercer lets his players cast Healing Word up to spell level 2 and still cast another spell as an Action.
Who can cast healing word?
In 5e D&D, which classes can use healing word (or a similar bonus action heal)? – Quora. Healing word is a spell for Bards, Clerics and Druids. A divine soul sorcerer can learn any cleric spell as a sorcerer spell, including Healing Word. A ranger and a druid can cast healing spirit as a bonus action.
Can clerics cast cantrips as a bonus action?
No. Cantrips are spells, just like any other spell. Cantrips do not use up a spell slot. Cantrips can be cast on the same turn that a spell is cast using a bonus action.
Do you have to use a bonus action to cast a spell?
Bonus Action. A spell cast with a bonus action is especially swift. You must use a bonus action on your turn to cast the spell, provided that you haven’t already taken a bonus action this turn. You can’t cast another spell during the same turn, except for a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action.
Can you cast a spell on your turn?
On your turn, you can move a distance up to your speed and take one action. The “Attack” action and the “Cast a Spell” action are both actions, listed on page 192. So if you take the Attack action, you can’t also cast a spell that requires 1 action to cast (such as firebolt ).
What happens when you cast a spell for longer than one action?
When you cast a spell with a casting time longer than a single action or reaction, you must spend your action each turn casting the spell, and you must maintain your concentration while you do so. If your concentration is broken, the spell fails, but you don’t expend a spell slot.
Can you cast a spell and use the attack action in?
However, there are multiple ways to circumvent that and manage casting a spell and making an attack during the same turn, though none of these involve the Fighter’s Extra Attack feature (PHB, p. 72), as all that feature does is grant you additional attacks “whenever you take the Attack action on your turn”.
