A thin green ray springs from your pointing finger to a target that you can see within range. The target can be a creature, an object, or a creation of magical force, such as the wall created by wall of force.
A creature targeted by this spell must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 10d6 + 40 force damage. The target is disintegrated if this damage leaves it with 0 hit points.
A disintegrated creature and everything it is wearing and carrying, except magic items, are reduced to a pile of fine gray dust. The creature can be restored to life only by means of a true resurrection or a wish spell.
This spell automatically disintegrates a Large or smaller nonmagical object or a creation of magical force. If the target is a Huge or larger object or creation of force, this spell disintegrates a 10-foot- cube portion of it. A magic item is unaffected by this spell.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage increases by 3d6 for each slot level above 6th.

Posted Mar 1, 2019This should cut through a Tiny Hut. Too high a level to get rid of a 3rd level spell, but it gets the job done.

Posted May 14, 2019If a PC is reduced to 0 HP from a Disintegration Ray, do they still make death saving throws as normal?

Posted May 15, 2019If a creature is reduced to 0 it is dead, end of the line. No death saves.
The party would have to bring them back via true resurrection or wish. If they want their friend back it could be an interesting side-quest.

Posted Nov 4, 2019Would this counter a Path of the Zealot Barbarian? Even with their Rage Beyond Death?

Posted Feb 18, 2020zealot barbarians dont die unless their rage ends, even if they fail all their death saves, so I'd say it probably still wouldn't instakill a zealot. and even if it did, true resurrection is free when used on zealot barbs.

Posted Mar 9, 2020Disintegrate does kill a zealot with Rage Beyond Death. Disintegrate doesnt say that it has to kill the target to disintegrate the body, only to leave the target with 0 hit points. A zealot using their Rage Beyond Death feature is at 0 hit points. The zealots feature only protects them from death caused by the failure of death saving throws -- this is one of several methods that can get through this defense (it is also the most efficient one).

Posted Mar 31, 2020I would say yes. I think it’s justified in fiction since the spell only disintegrates the target if it kills it, so it would just have knocked them unconscious.

Posted Apr 27, 2020RAW seems pretty clear that this spell overcomes Relentless Rage.
Relentless Rage from PHB: "If you drop to 0 hit points while you’re raging and don’t die outright, [THEN] you can make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw."
If you hit 0 points because of this spell you would be immediately disintegrated (AKA outright dead).

Posted May 2, 2020How does a pile of ash make death saving throws?

Posted May 5, 2020A pile of ashes can't make death saving throws. This spell makes you fail all of them, if it deplete your hp completely to where it disintegrates your body. You can't making saving throws if you were reduced to ashes.

Posted May 7, 2020No, they are just turned to dust, you can't be just all like "oh but I'm hanging on to life" if you are a pile of ash, you're just dead.
