    Level drain, XP loss, oh my

    Hong, according to what I read in the restoration(any) spell, you get ALL levels lost back if within the time period allowed. Now to answer your question, um er hmmmm.......it doesnt say. I would think that if that happened in my campaign then I would say that since you regain those levels...

    Concentration Question

    One more thing, if I am a spell caster I would let the DM know that unless I say otherwise I AM casting defensivley(sic) any time i am in combat. Matter of fact in RPGA tournys I made a sign up that said that so in case I forgot to say it before the game.

    Concentration Question

    To put it simply (your quote not mine) it does not say seperate attacks cause seperate rolls. It just says ANY damage taken during the casting of the spell. Of course you can play with the rules the way you see fit, but sometimes it isnt so simple as it looks. :)

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    The dead goblin makes no noise but a live one does (they have to breathe unless they hold there breath) what if it is cold and you see steam coming from behind the door like as in breath? I agree that you CANT know what is behind the door but you can detremine that something is behind the door.

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    First off spot is not just the sense of sight! You could smell the goblin or see the pool of blood coming from under door. Spot is all senses except hearing (which you are using as a listen roll). Unless of course you say hey i want everyone to put points in spot(smell), spot(see), spot(feel)...

    Concentration Checks

    I believe (until I see the answer stated clearly in a errata) that ALL damage you take in that round your are casting (unless full round spell) is considered for taking damage to make the Concentration check. Which means total damge and make check. Again, that is what I interpret from the rules...

    Very basic question regarding skill points...

    Also is the character human? I seem to recall humans get +1 more per level so that at 4th level you will have +4 extra too. So at 1st she gets 24 skill points then at 2nd and 3rd level get 6, then at 4th (with ability raise) she gets 7 for a total of...42 if my math is correct.

    Stupid Question: PC death and multiclassing

    I have to agree with EOL and you were dealt a harsh blow! You do lose last 2 levels you gained and all hit points,abilities, and feats, as well as skills ouch! I see no reason why you cant take a level of wizard. Dieing now is brutal!

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    . I am convinced that spot IS useful here as you then have the idea that something is wrong and you are more alert to anything. Of course that doesnt mean that a large creature erupting from the frozen ground still can't surprise you. I would not give a check after the fact. The use of...

    Step = Reach

    I like the idea as "larger than Man-size creatures" are usually tougher as well as not faster but longer in stride. If you think about it can a human outrun a giant that is 15' tall due to its stride? Think about a olympic runner then add 7-14+ feet taller and WOW you have a pretty good...

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    Sorry Icebear I was not saying you don't get that surprise attack, unless the party somehow dtects the creatures presence. In the instance of the elvin archers it is not the same unless say one of them sneezes or moves, then I can see a listen/spot check. I still think that a spot check should...

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    well Icebear you are saying that on the suprise round that it burrows up 10' then attacks 1 time, then goes to normal intiative, correct? I would then assume that it can burrow up to it's 20' then spring up out of the ground and attack without any chance to get a spot/listen check? Just because...

    Armor Creation

    I may get flamedfor this but if I remember you have to be 3rd to make +1 weapon or armor(and of course craft arms and armor feat) and it increases every 3 levels. EG. 3rd=+1, 6th=+2, 9th=+3, etc. Also you can get the feat without being aracane/divine too but you would need the help of someone...

    Rhemoraz CR7?

    I agree that CR 7 may seem low, but if characters are not surprised or even a bit prepared, it would not take that much to take it out. Of course with that said, I ran a similar encounter with a Ankheg (CR 4) and the bite is nasty. If you suceed in the hit with bite the person better have a good...

    is a natural 20 always a threat and other question

    Ok I know that a natural 20 is always a hit and natural 1 is always a miss, but this question pertains to monster attacks and maybe even traps. What I am looking for is the attacks of creatures and traps if they hit with a "20" is it considered a threat then a crit(X2 damage) if they hit again...

    Trolls and magic missiles

    Magic missle is just that..a MAGIC missle. It will do damage unless you have SR, but since trolls dont then it does damage. Also it is not fire or acid so the troll can regenerate the damage.

    Mage Armor question

    Whew thanks all for the answers and NOT flaming me. I missed the rule on Pg. 104 in PHB I guess because I was looking in DMG. BTW we all know things others don't and vica-versa so post knowing that. Thanks for the information all, it was what I thought.
