Disintegrate and Polymorph both have effects that happen when the subject is reduced to 0 hit points.
Disintegrate says:
If this damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, it is disintegrated.
Polymorph says:
The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies.
Which takes precedence? Does Disintegrate reduce the a Polymorphed target to dust first or does the creature revert to its regular form first?
Best Answer
It takes exhausting both HP pools before you turn to dust.
Apparently, RAI is in opposition to my other answer per a tweet from Mr Crawford (Credit to @Airatome for this tweet):
This means that if you are under Polymorph, Wildshape, Shapechange, or True Polymorph, you'd trigger the "revert to your original form" condition once Disintegrate reduced you to 0 HP, and take any additional damage to your original form in excess of what it took to reduce you to zero from Disintegrate.
True Polymorph and Polymorph both say ...
Wild Shape
Shapechange
Per @Airatome's comment on Mr Crawford's tweet:
