    Sneak attack from concealment?

    I could swear that when you have concealment vs someone, you can make sneak attacks to that someone. Searching through the books, I can't find any rules to back that up though. Can somebody please tell me where to find this rule? Or prove me wrong about this, of course :) Thanks!

    Casting underwater

    Hi all, I'm wondering about the possibilities of casting spells with a verbal while you're underwater (we'll leave the the possibility of fumbling wet spellcomponents outside of this for now). To quote the SRD: "To cast a spell, you must be able to speak". While the incantation might be able to...

    How dark is magical darkness?

    The spell Darkness: With this spell it might not be a big problem, but with spells like Deeper Darkness and Utterdark (source: Book of Vile Darkness), the radius of the darkness gets bigger and I can't find any reference to how dark it is exactly. The DMG isn't much help, it focuses on persons...

    What is an abberation?

    Creating a 'point buy' for prestige classes

    I'd like to create a table where all (or at least many) features of prestige classes are rated and given points. I'm thinking the whole thing here - prereq's, BAB, saves, skills, feats, spell progression etc. The purpose of this all is to be able to create new balanced prestige classes. Is there...

    Casting divine spells with shield and weapon

    After tonight's game session, I had a disagreement with one of my friends about casting a divine spell with a somatic component while having both a shield and a weapon in hands. He's under the impression that you can cast a divine spell under such circomstances because the shield only invokes...

    Shooting a spell in the distance

    I was wondering: If I shoot a ranged touch spell (e.g. Acid Arrow) as a -say- 10th level wizard, it has a maximum range of 800 feet. That surely is a long distance to target something, isn't there something like a range increment for such spells?
