    subtle weapons and sorcerors

    As I read it, a dual implement sorceror with a subtle dagger in his off hand would get the bonus damage whenever he had combat advantage since he is "doing damage with the weapon" ... or am I mistaken and there's a different consensus on this ?

    Paladins cause heartburn

    Yes, it does ... it's how we played it at the table ... I was just (over)thinking the matter afterwards. Thanks !

    Paladins cause heartburn

    But he wouldn't have been targetting the paladin, just the area, that he (the behir) and the paladin occupied. It was always my understanding that as long as the marked creature does it's level best to include the marking defender in it's attack, mark punishment shouldn't trigger ... or am I...

    Paladins cause heartburn

    I'm certain someone remembers the old 1E cartoon of a dragin rubbing its tummy and looking all queasy with the thread title in the caption. Last night that situation came up in our game, thought it wasn't actually a dragon, but a behir. It also spawned a little rules controvery that I hope you...

    invisibility vs. dispel magic

    I'm an invisible sorcerer. Two of my party members get hit by a confusion spell. I cast an area dispel on them. Does that break invisibility ? On a slightly different matter- does dispel magic break invisibility if it is cast at a single target ?

    2 questions RE: 3rd level spells

    1) Do magic missles suffer the 50 % miss chance granted by a Displacement spell ? If all you need to target your missles for an automatic hit is to SEE any part of the target does it matter that the target is actually 2 feet away from where he appears to be ? 2) When Dispel Magic is cast as an...

    Bracers of Archery price...

    So, I noticed that Lesser Bracers of Archery, which grant proficiency with any bow or a +1 competance bonus to hit cost 5 000 gp., while the greater version which grants +2 to hit and +1 to damage costs 25 000. Does this seem like an excessive price to anyone else ? How were they priced ? A +1...

    Quick elemental question

    Away from my books - I just need a quick confirmation or denial. Are elementals immune to ability damage ? Thanks :)

    Wizard Names

    A favorite NPC from an earlier campaign was Imblaesus Nodostronin, would be lich and master of the fortress of Gor-Gandal. It was fun when the party bard, attemting to impress a tribe of bugbears named the party as : The Knights of Gor-Gandal.

    avoiding unforseen AoO's

    Yeah, that's pretty much the case I'm thinking of :) But I've got another one for you: Can you tumle to avoid the attack of opportunity that comes from getting up from prone ? That is to say, can you tumble while prone, because the AoO comes from standing up, and until you DO actually stand...

    avoiding unforseen AoO's

    Thanks for the quick replies ! I'd just like to note/ point out that since tumbling really doesn't cost you anything (it's just part of your normal movement) then there is no reason for a character to not simply state that he's always tumbling when it comes down to tactical movement. Am i...

    avoiding unforseen AoO's

    Do you have to be aware of an incoming attack of opportunity in order to attempt Tumbling past it ? Can you use tumble to avoid an AoO from an invisible opponent ? Can you use it to avoid one if you’re moving 10 ft. away from a guy with a greatsword when the guys wizard friend uses his readied...

    Two quick questions

    Hey gang ! I’ve got two quick questions: 1) Does a protection from alignment spell offer any kind of protection against a charm person spell ? From a RAW standpoint I would think not since the protection offers protection from effects which grant control over the subjects mind which charm...

    Affect Mind / How far do you go ?

    We just started plying Star wars last month (although we’ve been playing D&D for … decades !) and I’m seeing a slew of unclear and just plain bad rules. There’s so many of them I don’t even want to get into it. At the moment there is just one pressing question: What is the duration of Affect...

    2 weapon fighting vs. Multiattack

    :) Thanks ape, I get the point. It's just that I wasn't sure of the point, just like Arbiter, but until (and if) he finds what he's looking for your quotes will do. Thanks again !

    2 weapon fighting vs. Multiattack

    In general I agree, but I'm looking to do something special with this guy and I don't want my players squaking that I blatantly ignored the rules - they'll have plenty to squak over when they see him in action :D And even if he did go 2 handed, the same question would apply, would he get just...

    Pricing for Energy Resistant Armor and Shields

    I’m certain that this topic has been beaten to death but I just noticed the change and I can’t help but feel that it makes no sense at all. The different method of pricing energy resistant armor and shields in 3.5 is …unreasonable to say the least. I mean would you rather spend 16 k plus on a...

    2 weapon fighting vs. Multiattack

    And that Lord Pendragon is my question precisely. Can anyone quote a definitive ruling or is this just one of the ever growing list of loopholes in a supposedly tight ruleset?

    2 weapon fighting vs. Multiattack

    I used daggers just as an example. Actually he'll be using red steel manglers (homebrew + AE) and his feats we'll be reshuffled quite a bit. With a few more levels he should be a worth Abyssal champion at CR 12 ! Thanks !
