How Does Slow Fall Work in 5E?

The Slowfall effect reduces the amount of damage taken by falling, as well as reducing the rate of descent. But the effect is not without its flaws. A creature or NPC that suffers a cliff jump can take more damage while under the Slowfall effect. If you’re wondering how to make slow fall work for you, then read on! This article will discuss the basics of slow fall in 5E.

Feather fall is an arcane spell

Feather fall is a reaction spell that reduces a creature’s speed and descent rate to 60 feet per round. This effect works with horizontal and vertical movement but not diagonal. The speed of the creature who uses feather fall falls half as fast as its normal speed, which allows it to land on its feet and avoid taking damage while falling. However, if it falls on a creature that is moving at the time it uses feather fall, it cannot cast spells, nor can it use other types of attacks.

When you cast Feather Fall, you reduce your character’s rate of falling. This spell changes the rate of falling by 60 feet per round and lasts for one minute. Once the effect ends, the character’s normal rate of fall resumes. Objects and creatures of Medium or smaller size can be affected. Small creatures and gear can also be affected. You can use this spell on up to two creatures per round.

It reduces fall damage by 5 times your monk level

The Monk’s Slow Fall spell negates the majority of fall damage by reducing it by five times your Monk level. This means that a level 14 monk is practically immune to fall damage. It is incredibly useful as fall damage is typically at least 70 damage. If you are looking for a way to protect yourself from fall damage, read on to discover how you can make the most of this powerful spell.

This ability costs a reaction, but the result is well worth it if you want to avoid getting hit by falling objects. If you fall down, the harpy isn’t falling. Instead, it’s being moved, so it’s not causing damage to you. I’ve found that most DMs run the Grapple-Monk that way in 16 levels of Adventurer’s League play. But when you’re grappling something, you need to remember that the harpy isn’t falling, so the damage isn’t coming to you.

It can be used on yourself

You can use Slow fall as a monk, which reduces fall damage by five times your monk level. The only difference is that you must be in a certain location to use the spell. However, the effect has other drawbacks as well. You can’t grab a wall or a tree to use this effect. Likewise, slow fall does not use Ki points. Therefore, it can only be used on yourself.
