It's a simple question, but I never quite understood the meaning of "On Initiative count 20". What does it mean? The creature can only use its lair action if it rolls a 20 for initiative?
No, it means that when the turn order is at initiative count 20, the lair action takes place.
Think of the lair as a creature, and it has roll an initiative of 20.
I was trying to wrap my head around exactly what they meant and that last statement nailed it down. Lol, sometimes I overthink.
Talk to your Players. Talk to your DM. If more people used this advice, there would be 24.74% fewer threads on Tactics, Rules and DM discussions.
It's always cool to see natural language clarify a rule ostensibly written in natural lanague.
