    How would a dragon dive bomb?

    Not only did I read it, I quoted it in my message. And neither the Green Dragon's Breath Weapon, nor the not-really-all-that-similar Acid Fog spell (which is quite nasty enough as written, thank you) "specify otherwise" in their text. Therefore, neither one damages attended objects, unless a 1...

    How would a dragon dive bomb?

    Ever since 3.0, attended equipment is *only* subject to damage if the bearer rolls a 1 on their save die (or if the attack form specifically says otherwise), and even then only 1 item is affected.

    How many adventures left in Shackled City

    Thanks for stopping by, Erik! I buy an occasional Dungeon (and hardly ever a Dragon), for the same reason others seem to: looking for adventures and characters to use or adapt. But you know what would get me to subscribe? Subscriber-only web content. I know you had some problems with...

    I converted 141 monsters.

    The original poster's site seems to be back, at least in part. For another take on Pokemon, adults with a high tolerance for blasphemy may want to check out the following links: Apocamon: The Final Judgement The ApocaDex

    Casting Spells Underwater?

    Essentially the same rules are also in the 3.5 DMG and SRD "Aquatic Terrain" section; check out http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/v35/WildernessandEnvironment.rtf, about 2/3 of the eay through.

    Fiery Dragon's plans for 2004

    Thanks! You also might want to post something on your site about the existence of the problem (and upcoming solution), or at least on your discussion boards.

    can you Wild Shape into animals with advanced HD?

    Here's a case that's come up in both of my last sessions,which is prompting me to rule that you *can't* become an advanced creature: 11th-level Druid is fighting Big Bad Spellcaster. Druid Wild Shapes to a Constrictor Snake (normally Medium)... advanced to 10 HD (Large). Druid grapples...

    Your take on "Surface Thoughts" ie detect thoughts

    Note that if someone makes their save against Detect Thoughts (at the third-round, read-surface-thoughts stage), they'll feel "a hostile mental force or tingle," just like saving vs. any other spell with no obvious effect. If your Doppleganger is staring hard at them when this happens (though...

    Questions regarding the "Hound Archon" and "Mirror of Opposition"

    Not unless the hound archon were only there due to a Conjuration(summoning) spell, such as Monster Summoning (I don't have the adventure in question, but this seems unlikely from context). Per the rules as written, any Called, Gated, Planar Allied, Planar Bound, Plane Shifted, etc. outsider is...

    Fiery Dragon's plans for 2004

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but this was posted 26 days ago, and I have yet to see a mention of the missing creatures (also missing in my copy, so I assume in all copies) anywhere online but this thread.

    Need something nasty to do to a scryer

    Indeed it does. Note since Crystal Balls just let you use the Scry spell, and devices take the same time to activate as the analogous spell unless otherwise specified, it takes an hour of gazing into a crystal abll to use it, and it only lasts a few minutes per use. However, by 15th level...

    Queen of Lies SPOILERS Maybe

    I advise against changing Alevolenz in that matter. As written, she has great creepiness potential, and can buff herselves more effectively and twice as fast. If you want to prevent your players from blowing through the Hanging Tower cavern without stopping (mine had learned about it through...

    Ice Devil's summoning ability?

    In any case, monsters summoned through such an ability last one hour, rather than 1 round per level. From the SRD on "Monster Types, Subtypes, and Special Abilities":

    Is the boarder part of the square?

    The "line" effect description (PHB p. 175-176) specifically says that it starts from "any corner of your square," not the middle. The text description (duplicated in the SRD) is somewhat ambiguous, but the explanatory "Line Attacks" illustration and *it's* text (PHB p. 176, *not* duplicated...

    Illusion Confusion: A figment of my imagination?

    If you're fighting an illusion, you're interacting, so you get a Will save. If that illusion is a figment, if it hits you or you hit it and you don't feel the blow, you've got proof that the illusion isn't real, and therefore auto-save. If you want to do direct damage with an illusion, you've...

    Issues with Summon Monster/Summon Nature's Ally (2004 Thread)

    You're quite correct, I missed that clause. I think Pally is still in trouble, though. ;)

    Issues with Summon Monster/Summon Nature's Ally (2004 Thread)

    I note that, in a toe-to-to fight (probably the Monk's weakest position), Rashad can Flurry, Trip Pally most of the time with the first attack, and thanks to Improved Trip *still*get two Stunning Fist attacks at Pally while he's down (at +13 to hit, due to Pally being prone). Each attack will...

    Issues with Summon Monster/Summon Nature's Ally (2004 Thread)

    Not if you have an adamantine weapon, especially a Greatsword or Greataxe with Power Attack.
