Gnolls do it Doggie Style.. or so it's been said.

Hehe.. Well, there's nothing wrong with finding all the obscure rules and such. I was just making up a new PC archer and just wanted to make sure there wasn't going to be any surprise that my DM might pull out about animated shields after I went through all the work of making her. :D

I assumed it would, but people here find so many obscure and crazy rules in the books, I wanted to make sure.

If my character has an animated shield, does it add its shield bonus to her AC while she's firing a bow? Thanks.

If I recall, the Underdark book for FR has some rules for a magical type field that makes teleporting hard while underground (the deeper one goes, I believe, the higher the chance the a teleport type spell won't work).

Irdeggman's list of the rules implies your reading is incorrect. A 6th level Drow cleric could have a 4th level Drow whatever (or any other ECL 6) cohort. I tend to agree with that ruling.

On one hand, I can see what you're saying. On the other hand, it most certainly breaks down if ECL isn't used as, well, the *effective* character level. What's the maximum cohort level a 6th level Drow cleric can get with the Leadership feat? 4th level (4 HD or 2 HD plus Drow ECL)? That's a...

And, while Hyp is dead on - even an intelligent +5 vorpal sword is just a masterwork sword while in an AMF, it doesn't matter one bit. Shatter won't shatter anything in an AMF.

I know that races like Drow get SR equal to 11+character level (meaning a 10th level Drow cleric would have an SR of 21). Lets say I now want to make a 6th level BBEG Succubus Cleric. Succubi have a 'stock' SR of 18. Do they also add their class levels to their SR like Drow (as above) for a...

I'm not quite sure what's correct. Let's say I'm playing a 9th level (ECL 12) Avariel Paladin and I have a divine feat that lets me add my charisma bonus to my shield for 1/2 my character level in rounds. Do I add: 6 rounds (because my effective Character Level is 12) -or- 4 rounds...

And, you missed the part of Antimagic Field where *spells* won't work inside. So Shatter can't shatter anything in an AMF.

Nope. Earthdawn and Shadowrun, especially Earthdawn.

I've played a front line fighter type in a group with two other front line fighters and *still* ended up getting no support from the rest of the party. I've also gotten screwed when I've tried to help the Fighters who've taken tons of damage and need healing. So, after this happened a few...

Living beings are not 'objects'. Living beings are creatures. The only creature Shatter damages are crystalline creatures.

Yeah.. You'd *assume* it'd be under the 'Damage' section.. since it's, you know, Damage Reduction... The full article is under Special Abilities.

There you go.

There are some skill tricks from Complete Scoundrel that allow standing from prone without an AoO.

Really? Out of all the potential issues that may be cropping up with 4e, this is a major problem? It wasn't addressed in 3.x, 2nd Edition, 1st Edition, or almost any RPG that doesn't require binding to one's magical items. How have gaming groups managed to survive all *those* systems where...

You know, there's a much easier way of handling this that's been mentioned a bunch of times. Double the movement value of the character, then use 2 mp for cardinal directions, and 3 mp for diagonals. The biggest problem with 1-2-1-2 isn't hard math, it's forgetting when the last time you moved...

19 or 20! There's a 10% chance to stabilize, not just 5%. :D
