    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Dusklade using arcane channeling ==> spell failure?

    I am not sure on this one: If a duskblade who wears heavy armor uses arcane channeling, would arcane spell failure apply? My reasoning why not: What is "arcane channeling"? ==> It's a spell and a melee attack. Since you only have "one action" in a standard action one of those two must be a...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5: Aura of resolve ==> immun to bless?

    Paladin of freedom (and others) have the aura of resolve class ability which makes him immun to compulsion effects. This makes him immun to compulsion spells like hold person or confusion. Would you agree that this *must* also apply to positive spells like bless, heroism and aid, meaning...

    Wizards spellbook

    Is a wizard limited to 1 (own) spellbook only? Where does it say, or imply, that he can have more than one spellbook with own spells in it?

    Cloak of resistance: HP and hardness

    What would you say is the hardness of a cloak of resistance +2, and how much hitpoints would that item have? My guess: Hardness 2 / Hitpoints 5 I think the +2 does increase hitpoints, this only applies to armor/shields/weapons. So I just took 1 inch of leather.

    Weapon crystals, add properties

    Would you allow to add several properties to a weapon (or armor) crystal? For example "crystal of return" and "fiendslayer" together (cost: cheaper one + 50%, as usual). My "feeling" is that it shouldn't be allowed (because all the players will add "crystal of return" to their weapons), but I...

    Power word stun

    If you've been stunned by a "power word stun", what can the other party members do to help you out of that state? Core rules & magic item compendium only. So far I've come up with the level 6 cleric spell "heal". Any other options?

    Mindarmor

    In the magic item compendium there is an armor property "mindarmor" which grants 3 times a day (for 1 round) a + 5 to saving throws against mind affecting spells (as a immediate action). So if an enemy spellcaster casts a spell at my character, and the DM says "now make your saving throw (will...

    Spell resistance: Yes (object)

    I don't get this: -- Dimensional Anchor Abjuration Level: Clr 4, Sor/Wiz 4 Components: V, S Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) Effect: Ray Duration: 1 min./level Saving Throw: None Spell Resistance: Yes (object) -- What's the meaning of "Yes...

    Charge and Hover

    Is it possible to charge while hovering? For a dragon with average manoverability.

    XP calculation

    We have some problems with XP calculations: If a party of 4 level 10 characters beats a group of 8 ghouls (1 ghoul = CR1), do the PC get 0 XP (since 8 * 0 ==> 0) or do the PC get XP for beating a CR7 encounter (according to the encounter level; DM's guide about fighting many opponents)

    True Strike and beeing blind

    If I'm blind (but having blindsense) and if I'm using true strike, would I hit without the 50% miss chance?

    Dire Tiger doing unarmed strikes

    Just by RAW (however, a ridiculous situation): If a dire tiger is doing a full attack, he *could* first attack 3 times with a non-lethal unarmed strike (which provoke Aoo) with a to-hit of 20/15/10 (he has BAB 12 and STR 27), and claw (now a secondary attack with -5 and only 1/2 STR bonus) and...

    Druid wild shape

    As I just learned the wild shape ability from a druid now comes from the "alternate form" special ability from the monster manual (not from polymorph). There you can read: > The creature retains the type and subtype of its original form. > It gains the size of its new form So if I understand...

    Bag of holding and dimension door

    One of my players claims there is a problem of having a bag of holding while using dimension door. But I see no problems in the spell description or the item description?!

    Range of bite/claw when enlarged

    What is the exact range of a dragon disciples bite and claw attack after he has been enlarged? So far I thought 10 ft for claw and 5 ft for the bite, but I can't find the source of that info anymore...

    Resurrection

    Can someone point me to, or explain, the rules of what it means to loose a level (after applying ressurection; no negative levels from undead). Thx!

    Double Potion ==> Superpotion

    I always wondered if it would be possible to merge 2 potions together: Taking a larger bottle, putting cure mod wound and bull strength in it, giving a superpotion which I can drink using only one standard action and getting healed and buffed on the same time. I feel this should not be allowed...

    Amulet of mighty fist +3

    So we found that Amulet of mighty fist +3. It will be used by my half-dragon. He has 2 class levels as monks. He has STR 20. (1) Is it true that the amulet increased his claw damage from 1d4+2 to 1d4+5? (2) is it true that the amulet increases his unarmed (fist, knee...) attack damage from...

    Large greatsword

    Our group just found a large greatsword + 2. Everybody in the group is medium sized. One in the group regulary goes large by using a wand of enlarge person. We are only using core-rules. Would you agree that there is no way that any member in the group can actually *use* that weapon?

    Permanency and greater magic fang

    Is this correct: A half-dragon which wants to have greater magic fang *permanently* cast on himself would have to pay: for +3: 7500 gold (for the XP) + 1080 gold (3x12x30) = 8580 gold for +4: 7500 gold (for the XP) + 1440 gold (3x16x30) = 8940 gold What disturbes me is the small difference...
