SR is an Ex ability in 3.0 so you get it with Shapechange. In 3.5 wildshape doesn't give you Ex qualities so probably no SR/immunities/abilities for shifters. Unless they modify the class somehow to grant Ex qualities (which would be great since I play a Shifter as my main PC) Shifters may be SOL.

In 3.0 you wouldn't get the regeneration or the rending abilites. You don't get any Ex abilities with Polymorph self/other. You'd also not get the attack routines of the creature you changed into. With the Shapechange spell you would get regeneration and the attack routines.

Would True Strike be effective in this situation? Fighter casts True Strike (from Ioun stone), he then moves in to attack a creature. The creature has reach and hits the fighter and starts a grapple since it has Improved Grab. Can the fighter use his +20 bonus on his grapple check?

Would a +1 Flaming Burst longsword do 2d8+1d10(fire)+2 damage or 2d8+1d6(fire)+1d10(burst)+2 damage on a critical? The description says that burst weapon qualities are in addition to the flaming quality, but I remember reading somewhere that the burst damage was suppose to replace the flaming...

Thanks for the reply The attacker has a 20% miss chance because he shot into the ethereal and we're assuming his target is material. But if his target is ethereal, wouldn't that 20% actually hit his opponent if he's ethereal? I was thinking that I should resolve what plane each are at when an...

If an archer has Manyshot and shoots a Blinking opponant, is there only one roll for the miss chance? Would all arrows either hit or miss since they were all fired using the same attack roll? If an archer casts True Strike then uses Manyshot, do all arrows benefit from the +20 to hit, or just...

Hehe, check in the DMG under specific armors. or you can check the http://www.opengamingfoundation.org/srd/srdmagicitemsarmor.rtf

Not sure if this was the right way to handle it but I made the creature have to get a hold with each tentacle. The party consists of 5-23rd level PCs and 1-22nd level cohort. I put them up against several Psuedonatural Displacer beasts. Round#1 the party spoted the beasts and decided to buff...

Does that mean each tentacle makes a grapple check and on the first round it does grapple damage. If that tentacle is still attached on the next round it does Con damage?

Does this ability kick in as soon as a hold is established or does the creature have to wait until the next round? I have a monster that just hit one of the PCs and started the grapple. I'm not sure if the monster gets it's constriction this round or just does normal grapping damage this round...

Anyone know if 3e PrCs will be compatible with 3.5? It looks like new ones are being added and some from 3.0 are being revised and included into 3.5. But how will existing 3.0 PrCs be handled? I know there's nothing official just yet, but am curious on what may/may not be allowed.

Is there any way to have rider and mount blinking at the same time? Could a wizard cast blink on his mount and himself and ride it? What if the mount had a blinking ability (blink dog)? If the rider casted blink, is there anyway for the rider to still ride his mount while blinking? A hafling...

Say the party finds a control panel that operates a couple of doors and a couple of spell effects. What skills are needed to figure out how to use it? Open Locks, Disable Traps, or Use Magic Device come to mind. Should it be a combination of skills? They don't have a rogue in the party (big...

How big of an item can actually fit in the glove? The SRD says 20lbs and must fit in one hand, but how about a 15lb spiked chain. Guess I'm curious about how much of the item has to be "in hand".

If a PC has a Ring of Spell Turning and a Rod of Absorption, what happens when they are hit with a spell? Does it matter if it's a damaging spell or a affect spell? Say the PC has 4 levels they can absorb and 4 levels they can turn. If they are hit by Flesh to Stone (6th level spell), can...

A 6th or higher level shifters abilities are supernatural, can they be dispelled by using (Greater) Dispel Magic? If so, what would the shifter use as an opposed roll? Would it be only shifter levels or would total character level be used? The DMG Faq states that a supernatural ability's...

Is movement for the round ended if a PC misses their oppoesed strength check? It doesn't say that movement for the round is finished, but lessens the feat if it doesn't (IMO). Since the monster can't use an AoO a second time against them, the PC can then get out of the monsters threat range.

If I have the party meet several monsters that have an Encounter Level of ~10th then there should be about 5.8k worth of treasure. But a lone 10th level fighter the party runs across will have ~16k worth of items. Why the difference? 4-6th level NPC have a challenge rating of 10. Should the...

Hmm, wouldn't the creature inside still have to make a save then. True, disintegrate normally affects only a single creature, but this seems to be a special case. One creature is inside of another.
