[QUOTE="HolyMan, post: 5585327, member: 84167"] I would think you would have to cut the distance as soon as they move up more than 5' in the air (same as moving 5' on the horizontal). Due to the fact that if an opponent is 15' in the air they should not get to use a reach weapon at all but from what I think you are saying they would get to attack in every adjacent square. If you don't start to lower the reach as soon as they start to "ascend" then you give them an extra 5' to play with. Case in point I'm looking at is: If your villian (sorry can't spell the name off the top of my head, so not going to try) were to move upward five feet (now at 15') she would then get to attack only in the blue area? Or does she lose the ability to attack at all. That is what has me baffled. How can you move up 5' and lose all those attack areas. Seems better if she were at 10'(up) and could only attack in the blue and if she went up 5 more feet she would then not be able to attack with the weapon at all. HM [/QUOTE]
