    Darkvision through a telescope

    Excepting colour, Darkvision and normal vision work the exact same way when it comes to spotting things... until you hit Darkvision's maximum range. That's how I see it. I see Darkvision's maximum range as fundamentally different from the maximum range at which a particular character can spot a...

    Darkvision through a telescope

    "No it doesn't"? That doesn't seem to have any bearing at all on what I'm saying here. Let me try to put it another way - I might have been unclear. The distance at which you can spot something because of spot modifiers has no bearing on your maximum Darkvision range. "Your maximum Darkvision...

    Darkvision through a telescope

    Of course there's a fixed maximum for a given character, object/creature, and circumstance. That describes a situation. That doesn't make the "fixed distance" in any way comparable to the maximum range of Darkvision, which only depends on one variable - your Darkvision range. For a given object...

    Reincarnate and its interpretation

    This is a thread intended to take discussion from http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=205966 about the wording of the Reincarnate spell, because that was starting to hijack said thread.

    Bo9s General Questions -title changed-

    I'm just going to point out here that this is wrong. If you are a straight Martial Adept, your Initiator Level = your Character Level. Your maximum Maneuver Level is dependent on your Initiator Level in the way described in the quote, if you replace "Character Level" in the quote with "Initiator...

    Darkvision through a telescope

    Combine seeing the mile-distant city-attacking Dragon to the ability for people to shoot 1500+ feet with Far Shot and a Composite Longbow. And where does verisimilitude go when you remember that common people in the Age of Exploration were able to see the sails of an incoming ship before the...

    3x full attacks in a round?

    That's true. When the PrC was written, quickened spells were free actions. So swift actions not being around isn't relevant - whatever you can do with a swift-action teleport, you can do with a free-action teleport.

    Darkvision through a telescope

    Also, note that the range of Darkvision doesn't say "60 feet, +5 feet for each +5 of the character's spot score". If it had, a spyglass would help. It doesn't. It says 60 feet. Also, for those of you arguing that since the spyglass doubles the size of things looked at it will double the...

    Restoration vs. multiple level loss

    I don't know the Shadow Drake, but "normal" level drain only inflicts negative levels, then after 24 hours you make a fortitude save to see if they're actually turned into removed levels. Are you saying that all your 7+ players failed those saving throws? If it hasn't been 24 hours since the...

    Craft - Modifying weapons for size

    Uh, are you agreeing with me that a medium shortbow is the same size as a small longbow? I know about the rules for not using longbows while mounted, but if the small longbow that's re-gripped for a Medium creature and is a shortbow for that creature is used by a medium creature, I can't see why...

    Craft - Modifying weapons for size

    Well, you're not actually making the bow any larger (Small Longbow -> Medium Shortbow; these two bows are about the same length) - you're just fitting the grip and pull for a larger creature. The pull might be a problem, the grip should not be.

    Maximum Enhancement for a Bane weapon?

    I respectfully disagree.

    Maximum Enhancement for a Bane weapon?

    Why's that? Because it says "normal"? The GMW enhancement bonus is a normal enhancement bonus.

    Maximum Enhancement for a Bane weapon?

    The bane property is *specifically cumulative* with the weapon's enhancement bonus. PHB: "The weapon's enhancement bonus is +2 better than its normal enhancement bonus". I think you're interpreting "normal" here as "not from Greater Magic Weapon". I disagree with that interpretation, I say...

    Faster wand activation?

    What, if any, character options are out there to activate a (standard-action-spell containing) wand faster than a standard action? A move action would be fast enough, but faster would be better. I'm playing with a build idea in my head that uses a Glove of Storing, a wand of True Strike, Quick...

    Martial Study Feat

    Having just used it to choose maneuvers for a character that comes in with his first Swordsage level at Initiator Level 4, I must say that it is awesome. Its possibility of sorting on any coloumn, and filtering out everything that isn't for a specific class, for a specific level, etc., combined...
