[QUOTE="Valicore, post: 6826089, member: 6700708"] Question that came up today in gaming session. With the use of a telekinesis spell could you use the same object (Spear) multiple times. Effectively woodpecker-ing the enemy with it for all of the attacks you would normally have. At 15th lvl it would be 15 attack rolls, for 1d8 damage each. DR applies, and its the reason for using a spear (cold iron) as the demon's DR would have made doing the same with rocks useless. Now given the spells area from which you can effect objects, they all just have to be within 10 feet of each other, you could have someone in a small room be attacked from every angle by say knifes in a shop laying on tables and shelves. Also to be a target you just have to be within 10' per lvl of the object launched. So you could hit 15 targets up to 150' away (15th lvl caster) from say a barrel of swords in a garrison. Given targets hit-able in a 150' sphere, does the woodpecker attack seem to be out of the scope of the spells power? Either having the object swipe back and forth, or it getting thrust multiple times. Or say like a nail being hit by a hammer 15 times. A 5th lvl spell seems capable of achieving this feat, and telekinesis doesn't say yes you can or no you cant on it specifically. It sounded awesome at the time and I allowed it cause the player had a good argument. I would hate to have to say no you cant use it again, or make up a completely new spell just for this effect that is kinda in the grey area. Opinions? [/QUOTE]
