Last updated on october 10th 2020. Would like to know so i don t waste 1 of my 3 level ups lol no and it s not ohw expertise works in 5e. Yep off the top of my head alignment only interacts with the rules mechanics in 5e for some high level artefact items or sentient weapons e g book of vile darkness can only be used by evil characters a few features of divine soul sorcerors from xanathar s guide to everything but a lot of dms jsut let the player choose whichever one they. If that wasn t enough you ve also got a pile of really cool enchantments.
