The party forsn't know what happened; they had no idea what the wand was. The eldritch knight rejoined them after they exited the dungeon as if nothing happened. He was suspicious of the lich, but when he prayed to his god, he was encouraged to go along with the plan. He did hand over the wand...

Exactly. That was the intent of my original post. Our DM is rather new to DMing. I tried to assist him as I could without interferring too much. I thought it ws an interesting set if circumstances, asked around other d&d tables nearby, and posted here just to see what other interpretations might...

I tried to simplify the originsl post by leaving out all the details. I wasn't going for a specific answer. But then the details were asked fir so given. I known they change things so now a specific situation answer can be looked at instead if a general.

Funny you say that. My human eldritch knight and the halfling dancer are the normal ones. There's also a shardmind mystic and a beholder bard. DM gave us each a wish. Beholder and shardmind jumped from level 3 to 15. Halfling has some sort of purifying sphere. My knight can ... ahem ... turn...

- Yes, eldritch knight in plate mail that is magical granting invisibility. - The dispelling wizard was in a large room with a 15' ceiling. - The wizard was in the room with over 30 creatures finishing combat with a mummy. - candle chandeliers (magic) - It was day so sunlight was completely ng...

Let's look at it from the perspective of the dispel caster. There's a wand that flies up a ladder in the floor of the room she is in. It is moving at 120'. There is an invisible (dashing, no hide action) wizard flying and holding the wand. There would be a significant amount of turbulence and...

Flyer is aldo PC trying to avoid other players. In your scenario helping Wizard succeed, flyer fsils.

There's a visible wand flying overhead, caused by magic. Spell says it can target magical effect.

These are interesting suggestions. I think the important thing in this is what us targeted - if wand, nothing happens; if wand-holder, then he turns visible and takes falling damage; if magical effect, then that one effect ends (not both gly and invisible). But how to go about deciding the...

A yuan-ti pureblood PC from Volo's gets it as a racial feature starting at first level.

The mastonboys ride horses, herd mastodons. The native orcs occassional raid these. The spice is consumed - mostly in the Moist Ivory Pub which has a dripping mastodon skull painted on its sign - in milk, turning it blue. The player's have rooms in the local inn which is slightly burned, run...

So we played last night: a bureaucrat, a cowboy (mastodon actually), and a carrot farmer. They were attacked by a pair of orcs and somehow survived - though one hit eith sn axe and another with an arrow dropped both PCs to less than half their hit points (the bereaucrat hid in a river). The...

I think we are each talking about class once they reach level 1. about

The idea of only one character per class is interesting. Hmm

Players want zero-level restrictions as a constraint to challenge themselves. We're not talking about a grand adventure or dungeon crawl. This will be a noir-type campaign at least at first, trying to avoid thieves snd bar fights, etc.

Players want zero-level restrictions as a constraint to challenge themselves.

I'm running a new campaign with 3 players who want to focus on role-playing. I asked them to build characters with these characteristics: 0 level human (or human variant) non-humans, classes, magic, and monsters are uncommon or rarer roll 3d6 for abilities, consecutive HP equals 4 plus Con...

How would you know it needs those exact words? Is that stated somewhere? As you mention, there are no examples of those words being used. Someone taking the opposite side of the debate (again, not me) could say it must have something else in the description, and they would have as many examples...

Again, I'm agreeing with you that I think the ambiguous wording leans toward needing attunement, but the wording is not a clear RAW issue. On page 138 of the DMG, it says, "Without becoming attuned to an item that requires attunement, a creature gains only its nonmagical benefits, UNLESS its...

While I think you may have the better arguement and would likely rule on your side, just because you feel you are correct doesn't mean there isn't a debate.
