Would acid fog reduce the cloudkill to 5' per round? I'm was kidding, but now I don't know. I doubt it, but it's a funny thought.

Screen Illusion (Glamer) Level: Sor/Wiz 8, Trickery 7 Components: V, S Casting Time: 10 minutes Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) Area: 30-ft. cube/level (S) Note it's a 30' cube (30'x30'x30') not 30 cubic feet (2'x5'x3'). At least by a literal reading, I'm not sure what the intention...

What spell is that? There is a spell with an area of 20 shapable cubic feet per caster level and range close. The cubic feet (I'm thinking the spell said 20' cube) would be able to fill the entire area by level 15 or so. So the only point would be if you would want to not include some of the...

I disagree, just because the DC is the same, it doesn't mean it's the same check. The first is to traverse, the second is to keep from falling. I certainly see how you are interpreting it, but don't claim there is no counter argument. At this point it is up to the DM's ruling and you live...

Some members of the party fall victim to The next round does the bard's countersong save them?

For what it's worth, I'm 'on the fence' on whether the subject of a spider climb spell (or a spider for that matter) must make a climb check when they take damage while climbing. I'm inclined to say they do need to make the check. The spell doesn't make mention of the exemption, and the Climb...

[Edit: The spell spider climb does say no check is required, the rest of my answer stays the same though.] 'Smooth vertical surface' doesn't mean anything in game terms, the real question IMO is What is the DC, and can you succeed while taking 10. 95% of the time the DM will decide if the take...

It looks like you should read the spell to see what it does. Older gamers might be recalling how it was in 2.0 or how previous DM's ruled it. I don't see anything about making attacks in the spell, so that elliminates most of your questions. I don't see anything in spiderclimb about being...

When I read the eratta & the revisited RotG article, I thought it said you keep your type (humanoid) and DON'T gain the animal type. I'll admit I'm not well versed in it, so I could be wrong.

Of course, it all depends on how much you plan to use it, combat reflexes might also be optional. If you are a caster though, there are a lot of other ways to deny dex. Here is a list I have started, I'm sure there are more. Ways to deny dex to ac: Attacker is: Invisible Condition...

P-p-p-puppy power! I like the lobster/crab suggestion. You could regress a large creature into a pup. So medium size crockodile, dire bat or snake with reduced hp and stripped of (EX) attacks. Plus you could advance them to normal around 7th level.

What I was trying to say is... I don't think there is an 'A' answer to this one. No rules quote and glossary term logic to prove the spell provides the scent.

Not to be obtuse but, it's up to the DM anyway. Sometimes you let things on the edge of the rules slide in on the spot rulings. It's better than a DM that says 'well, no one asked if the orc smelled funny'. If I were the dm I conseed a bad on the spot ruling and says in the future I would...

I would suggest a more subtle change. Bump them up one spell level. It will either make them less attractive and they probably won't be cast much, or they will still be cast in spite of the higher cost and your fears will have been justified. Or as mentioned above, modify the mechanics...

The 'kick me' sign argument is what made my mind up. (wasn't sure when the question was posed). Mirror image would let the caster find out he has a kick me sign. If the caster creates a major image of himself, the sign would be missing and an observer would know the something was up. I'd...

... and an hour of preperation. Also, being a Cheney enough to tell your partymembers to 'Go heal yourself'. They might be bleading out in the third round, but you just finished buffing, don't give up a full round attack to heal them. Seriously though, a second cleric dedicated for heals on...

I only glanced at the article, but it's chock full of the phrase "The rules don't say... But common sense..." which can only mean trouble. What do the crossed out sections mean? Has some of his comments been retracted, or am I having font issues?

The problem with full druid is lack of feats, and the temptaion to use those feats to boost the druid's actual strong points (spellcasting and wildshape). MarkB: Good point on the ranger companion (as mentioned hadn't looked at it in a while). It would be a good option if the DM wasn't prone...

At levels 1-6 that shouldn't be a problem. Outside that I would use fighters to get the a bove mentioned feats. Possibly rangers, but I havent really looked at them since 3.5.

I'm completely baffled Gerion. Either I'm compltely misunderstanding your argument, or welcome from the Wotc boards. Picking up an item is a move action, not a skill. Hence not covered under concentration. The portion of concentration that does allow you to avoid attacks of opportunity...
