D&D 5E Disengage + Dash in same turn !!!

First Post
Disengage says "If you take the action Disengage, your movement does not provoke opportunity attacks for the rest of the turn.". If the MONK, use Disengage as BONUS ACTION (Ki point), out of the threatened area of an enemy (do not take the opportunity to attack), but by chance after stopping the threatened area of another enemy and using DASH as action to exit the threatened area of this second enemy, he takes or no opportunity to attack ???
Note: Disengage says .. "our movement does not provoke opportunity attacks for the rest of the turn."



This is precisely the question. In fact it will move with Disengage, Stop, and move again with Dash.

The question is ... This disengage "cover" this Dash (No op. attack). Yes or no ??

Dash adds to your existing movement, it doesn't create a second movement.
Disengage prevents attacks from all opponents, not just certain ones.
Do them both and you're untouchable by anyone for quite a distance. Go nuts.
 

"Rest of the turn" means that it applies to ANY subsequent movement that occurs during that turn. So YES, disengage applies to the extra movement granted by a Dash action (or at least any part of that movement that occurs after the disengage).
 


If you're going to spend a Ki point on it, yes, have fun!

But be ready to have people sing Monty Python songs when you do it...

Brave Sir Robin ran away.
Bravely ran away, away!
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!
 


Monks and rogues can disengage and dash on the same turn to get out of pickles. I'm not sure why this is even a question as the rules are quite clear on it.
 


Very common tactic in my games from rogues and monks to get where they want to be. Remember Disengage is just a name, you don't have to be adjacent to an enemy to use it, and it works rather well to run into and past large groups of minions to get to say bosses or enemy spellcasters in the back rank.
