Contact

The dndrules.com contact page covers how to reach the editorial and reference team responsible for the rules content published across this site. It describes the scope of inquiries handled, what information to include for an efficient response, and realistic timelines for different request types. Readers with questions about D&D rules interpretation, content corrections, or reference gaps will find the appropriate channel and format guidance here.

Service area covered

The dndrules.com reference team handles inquiries related to the rules content published on this domain. The site covers official Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition mechanics — ranging from Combat Rules and Spellcasting Rules to subsystems such as Multiclassing Rules, Downtime Activities, and Optional Rules.

Inquiries that fall within scope include:

1. Factual corrections — errors in rule descriptions, incorrect page references, or misattributed mechanics from official Wizards of the Coast source material
2. Missing content reports — rules topics that are absent from the current index but fall within the 5th Edition ruleset
3. Clarification requests — ambiguous or contested rule interactions where the published reference content does not resolve the question clearly
4. Broken link or technical reports — non-loading pages, formatting failures, or slug errors within the rules index
5. Licensing and reproduction inquiries — questions about how content on this site may be cited or referenced in third-party publications

Inquiries outside scope include campaign-specific rulings, homebrewing assistance, product purchasing advice, and questions about Wizards of the Coast's own support channels. Rules disputes at an organized play table — such as those governed by the D&D Adventurers League — are handled through Wizards of the Coast's official organized play documentation, not through this reference domain.

The distinction that most commonly causes misdirected messages: content correction requests concern factual accuracy of how a rule is described on this site, while rules interpretation requests concern how a rule works within 5th Edition gameplay. Both are in scope, but they route to different review workflows and carry different response timelines.

What to include in your message

A complete, well-formed message reduces back-and-forth and accelerates review. The following breakdown applies to the 4 primary inquiry types:

For factual corrections:
- The exact page URL or slug where the error appears (e.g., /dnd-saving-throws-rules)
- A quotation or description of the inaccurate passage
- The official source that contradicts it — book title, chapter, and page number if available (e.g., Player's Handbook, Chapter 9, page 179)

For missing content reports:
- The specific mechanic or subsystem not covered
- The official source publication where that mechanic appears
- Whether a related page exists that partially covers the topic (checking the Full Rules Index first is recommended)

For clarification requests:
- The rule or mechanic in question, with a link to the relevant reference page
- The specific interaction or scenario causing ambiguity
- Any official rulings already consulted, including Sage Advice Compendium entries from Wizards of the Coast

For technical reports:
- The full URL of the affected page
- Browser and device type
- A brief description of the failure — including whether the issue reproduces consistently

Messages that omit the relevant page URL or official source citation take significantly longer to process. Generic subject lines such as "question about D&D" are deprioritized relative to messages that name the specific rule subsystem in the subject field.

Response expectations

Response times differ based on inquiry complexity and the current review queue. General benchmarks:

• Technical reports (broken links, formatting errors): acknowledged within 3 business days, resolved within 10
• Factual corrections with cited sources: reviewed within 7 business days; correction published if verified
• Missing content reports: logged for editorial review; no guaranteed response timeline, though additions are batched quarterly
• Clarification requests: addressed on a best-effort basis; complex RAW (Rules as Written) vs. RAI (Rules as Intended) disputes may not receive a definitive site-level response

Corrections that are verified against official Wizards of the Coast publications — including the Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, Monster Manual, and the Basic Rules available at D&D Beyond — are applied to the live reference pages without a separate confirmation message to the submitter. The updated page serves as the record of resolution.

Submissions that cite unofficial sources, Reddit threads, or community wikis without cross-referencing an official publication will not be actioned as corrections, though they may be flagged for internal review if the underlying claim warrants investigation.

Additional contact options

For rules questions that can be resolved through existing reference material, the D&D Frequently Asked Questions page addresses the most common points of confusion across core mechanics. The Full Rules Index provides a structured entry point to all 60+ reference pages on this domain.

For questions that originate with official rule text — particularly rulings on specific spell interactions, class features, or condition stacking — Wizards of the Coast publishes the Sage Advice Compendium as a free PDF through their official channels at dnd.wizards.com. The Sage Advice Compendium represents the closest available authoritative source for designer intent on contested mechanics and is the primary external reference used when evaluating ambiguous correction requests submitted to this domain.
