Casting spells in Antimagic Fields

[Dandu]

Counterpoint:



It logically follows that if the change is rules is not free, it is not errata. The changed text in the Rules Compendium is not free, therefore it is not official errata.

Reference: This quote originally came from Chris Perkins on the WotC boards, at this link: http://boards1.wizards.com/showpost.php?p=12291698&postcount=149 The page is no longer there (maybe it's just moved). It was referenced in this thread on ENWorld: http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/202969-wasnt-there-supposed-big-errata-push.html

You know, this train of logic leads to the conclusion that the Complete Psionic is not actually errata for the Expanded Psionics Handbook.

And I am completely fine with that.

I think someone's head is going to explode.

If you're talking about me - not at all. This is what I had been asking for *all a long* but until now no-one provided.

Seriously though, this does spell a certain amount of trouble for the most infamous Anti-Magic user out there, the Beholder.

Consider that his famed Antimagic eye effect is a 60 foot cone, starting in the squares right in front of him.

A spell caster more than 60 feet away throws a spell like Lightning Bolt (just to keep in line with our examples). The bolt leaps out on course, then vanishes as it enters the Antimagic cone's area, only to reappear when it leaves that area. Which is to say, right in the Beholder's square.

This is exactly the problem, why I wandered in here in the first place and why I'll still play blocks LoE.

The difference now is I'm Rule 0ing it.
