Here's a question... If golems are so dumb that they do not use tactics, does this mean a Golem would never take an AoO if an opponent provoked it?

IIRC, golems are not subject to illusions.

This is not correct actually... Casting an offensive, non-damaging spell on someone (such as Charm Person for example) is also considered an attack. Also, if I strike at someone and miss completely, that too is considered an attack. Otherwise, you would remain Invisible if you strike at...

It is not a matter of knowing or not knowing. That has nothing to do with it. It is a matter of pinpointing the spot on your target you want to attack, and striking it as quick as possible, before you Blink back. Your reaction time has nothing to do with if you "know" when you will Blink back...

I'm sorry, but that is just stupid. If I am on the ethereal plane, and I KNOW that I won't be able to damage my opponent from it, why in the hell would I even attempt it? I wouldn't... I would wait until I Blink back to the Material Plane, line up my shot as quick as possible (preferably...

The arcane spell failure for casting in armor isn't worth it IMO at the low levels. Unless his Barbarian wasn't wearing armor. Also, for the two rounds it took too cast those spells, he could have been attacking instead. I think a mounted lance-wielding spirited charging fighter-type/mage...

Well in the PHB there are only descriptions for Arrows and Bolts. Not Arrows (Shortbow) and Arrows (Longbow) or the like... However, in the weapons table under each bow, they have arrows listed for each type of bow. Why not have it listed once if they were universal? And if they are not...

Charm Person isn't really that great of a 'combat' spell anyway. The best use for this spell is out of combat, in roleplay situations. When you want a better deal out of a merchant, or more information from a bar tender.

From the PHB" Unfortunately, ALL of the Warlock's invocations (including Eldritch Blast) are spell-like abilities that require somatic components to cast. So even with Still Spell (which removes the somatic component), you still need a Concentration check (DC 20 + spell level) to either...

Can't you also use a Quarterstaff as a 2handed weapon? Allowing you to get 1.5 Str bonus to damage? Also getting +2 for -1 if you have power attack?

So if spells with opposites do not cancel each other, I suppose you play that the same spell can not cancel each other as well, right?

What makes ya think studded leather isn't included in this? Studded leather IS leather after all.

Acid Fog doesn't do damage to items worn or carried, unless you fail your saving throw by rolling a natural 1. Even then, it only has a chance to destroying 1 piece of equipment or item.

What is an AoA? :p Anyway... You can also use ranged weapons as well. No need to get into melee combat if ya don't have to. You can also take Total Defense (Standard Action) and use your Move action to close in, if you are close enough. You'll still provoke an AoO but hopefully that +4...

Is ALWAYS considered...

Know what book it might be in? Or is it on the Wizard's site somewhere?

From the Glossary: Under Monk (p41 in 3.5 PHB): I am fairly certain fists and feet are appendages. Though there is no further explanation in D&D terms as to what else an appendage is.

One of my favorite Cleric spells is from Magic of Faerun is called Wieldskill. It is a 1st level Cleric spell that, upon casting, grants the target (One creature touched) either a +10 competence bonus on a skill check of your choice OR proficiency with a single weapon (simple, martial, or...

Also the PHB say they aren't melee weapons as well...

I am sure there is, but I can't seem to find any atm. A melee weapon can be "manufactured" or "natural". A Monk's unarmed strike (or anyone's unarmed strike for that matter) would be considered a natural weapon. So if a spell affected "melee weapons" I think it would affect both. A Monk's...
