I guess you mean "a Wondrous Pointy Stick of Permanency". ;) -AK

Well, then, why can one not have a Wondrous Parchment of Neverending Nightvision, which bestows permanent nightvision on the user, contains a single charge, and requires the spells nightvision and permanency (in addition to craft-wondrous-item) to create? Can't have it both ways, y'know. The...

Just like you can't put a fifth level spell (permanancy, e.g.) in a wand. Ain't that right, Not-Sean? :D

I believe it was Monte who pointed out that the rules as written allow sneak attacks with spells that require an attack roll, but it might be unbalancing for the game since it's MUCH easier for a rogue to make a touch attack than to try to beat a target's AC. SA damage applies to HP only (not...

Scribe Scroll is an item creation feat, along with Brew Potion, Craft Wand, Craft Magic Armor/Weapon, etc. The rules are pretty clear about the creator (the person with the feat) providing any needed XP, but an assistant could provide the needed spells (if the desired spell is on the...

Re: Re: Permanency scroll cost A fifth-level spell in a wand? That's bending the rules a bit. -AK

How off-topic can we get? Not-Sean, you're an insensitive jerk. I think it's something in the water in Useless, Tx. ;) Can't you see that your little joke has hit too close to home? The poor guy must have caught his fiance red-handed (so to speak). At least you're a helpful and...

Eat the right combination of spicy & greasy foods, and you could use your familiar's ability to deliver a touch attack at range. Bleh. :eek: -AK

Activating a spell trigger device (i.e., a wand) does not provoke an attack of opportunity. -AK

Just to clarify... a shield provides an armor bonus, and does not count against touch attacks. -AK

Oh, and should I infer from your follow-up that doctoring previous messages in a pathetic attempt to deny culpability would not fall into the category of "rude"? :D Hrumph! I'd have expected better from a fellow Fort-Worthian, neighbor. ;) -AK Stupid spelling mistake.

From the System Resource Document (SRD) (emphasis mine)... Not too easy to misinterpret that one. -AK

Polymorph Other does not let the subject keep supernatural abilities, like empathic link. Since the familiar serves its master with unswerving loyalty, I'd rule that the familiar would be content with just about any shape that its master considered appropriate. There's a lot of debate...

From the SRD: I reckon the polymorphed bear in the example gets one claw at +13/+8/+3, another claw at +8, and a bite at +3 (no multiattack feat), at the appropriate damage for the attack types. The extra attacks are kind of like two-weapon fighting, IMHO. -AK

Now you're quibbling over the definition of "aware". I refuse to be pulled into that one. My answer is "DM's discretion." I'd allow a player to cast TS and choose the target, "The invisible @#$%& that just put a crossbow bolt in my gut!", but that's just my own discretion. Now you're being...

Not exactly... I said that your intuition does NOT lead your aim to any particular direction. If you have no awareness of a target, or if your target isn't around any more, TS can't help with the attack. We're in agreement here. See above. Here, we disagree. I feel the insight from TS helps...

It provides information about your next attack. That attack will very likely involve two combatants: yourself, and your target. I agree... but I contend that "making you more capable of hitting the target" includes assistance with the targeting of the attack. If your next attack is against a...

WAY too much info. I'd rule it more like this... "What was your attack roll again? With the +20 modifier?" (Ignoring the attack roll... ) "As you concentrate on the insight provided by your divination, your intuition doesn't draw your aim to any particular location. You loose your arrow...

It's also obvious (I thought you said not to mention "obvious". Sorry. Old joke. From an old joker. :) ) the chance involved in choosing a square to attack is listed in the column "Miss Chance". The range is YOU. The target of the spell is NOT the target of the attack. I guess I'm choosing to...

True Strike: Seeing the future. You can see the future with regard your next attack (if it's within the next round)... even complete concealment won't help your target avoid the strike... but your vision of the future can't tell you whether or not you're even hitting the right square? It...
