    Dispel Magic and Spell Turning

    What happens when a Dispel Magic is cast on someone with Spell Turning up? Does the Dispel try to remove the Spell Turning and if it fails it bounces, just bounces because it was turned or something else? During the game last night I ruled it was turned before it had a chance to effect the...

    Touch spells and slam attacks

    Hello. Is it possible for a creature that has slam attacks (Mummy) and can cast spells (as Cleric) to cast a touch spell and do a slam attack with that spell in effect? I'm leaning to 'yes' but that the attack has to hit vs just hit touch ac. Not sure what, if any, official rule there are...

    Starting Equipment at non-1st level.

    Is there anything about how much gold a character of x level should have like 3.5 had? If I start our characters at 5, 9th, 15th... levels how much equipment/gold should they have? rv

    Goblin Hexer - Stinging Hex

    This is a ranged attack vs Will, the target takes 3d6 + 1 damage if it moves on its turn, save ends. What happens when the attack rolls a 20? Since its an attack I assumed it was a crit. But the damage doesn't happen till the target moves on his turn. And... does it do crit damage every turn...

    Unconscious, Dying and your options

    We had our first 4th Ed game last night (via Fantasy Grounds with my 2 players who DIDN'T go to Gencon) and we had 1 major rule question that came up. I think these are the options you have when go you below 0: 1. Roll your Death Save and hope to roll a 20. 2. Have a Cleric cast a Heal...

    Wall and Blade Barrier spells

    Do they need to be 'resting' on the ground? Or, can they be cast 5' or more feet in the air? Mostly thinking of Wall of Force but the same goes for all the wall spells. And Blade Barrier. Thanks, rv

    GSL, Published Worlds and your game

    Not sure if this has been brought up yet or not. I thought of it Friday night but had to travel out of town. With WoTC's 'publish a new PHB every year' plan and, to my understanding, 3rd partys having to not exclude core things from their works... does this mean companies that create campaign...

    Feat Prerequisites and Buff Spells

    Can someone take a feat who's prerequisites he only meets when he is buffed with the understanding he can only use the feat when buffed? My knee jerk reaction to this is 'no' but he CAN take a feat who's prerequisites he meets when using a + stat magic item (like +2 dex gloves for example)...

    Magic Vestment

    I think I saw a thread on this a while back but I don't remember (or didn't follow it close enough...) the outcome. Can a caster put this on both armor and shield and recive the benifit from both at the same time? I don't see anything that would stop it from working but it seems a bit strong. rv

    'no two creatures more then 30' apart' simple phrase, big fight

    So, in last nights game a cleric casts a Greater Command spell on a group of Fire Giants. When checking the spell details it has the limit listed in the title. Upon checking the distance between two of the Giants there was exacty 30 feet of space between them (6 squares). I said this made them...

    Mystic Theurges and Domain Spells

    As a character goes up in Mystic Theurge levels and gain's +1 divine caster class (cleric) do they gain access to the domain spells they would normally get as a cleric of that level? Thanks, rv

    Sunbeam

    How long does the blindness last on a creature effected by a Sunbeam spell? Right now I'm thinking its one round per level but the spell description is unclear.

    Do the effects of Waves of Fatigue & Ray of Exhaustion stack?

    A player wants to know if he hits a group with WoF http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/wavesOfFatigue.htm (no save, auto fatigued) and then starts to hit individule tagets with RoE http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/rayOfExhaustion.htm (Ray, if fails fort save Exhausted else fatigued) will the...

    2 items of fortification

    Can you have both a shield of light fort (for example) and armor of light fort and both work as normal? I'm thinking yes and we'll have to roll twice for each crit/sneak attack. Just not 100% sure this is sort of like stacking effects where the strongest one would work. Thanks, rv

    Undead (my players stay out!)

    Does anyone else think it is weird that a (for example) 13th level caster can cast a 1st level Animate Dead and create a 20 HD Zombie (say from an Ettin) but a 6th level Create Undead can only make a 4 HD Ghast (not from an Ettin... but a humanoid)? Am I missing something? Haste and Zombies...

    Magic Jar = evil or at least non LG?

    Is this something a Lawful Good caster would be doing? I've always thought/felt that messing with something soul a bit beyond whacking their head off. Plus dominating/controlling their body this way just smacks of evil (to me). I also don't like how you don't know who you are going to be...

    Combat Expertise and Power Attack

    Is there anything that would stop someone/thing from using both of these in the same attacks? I don't see anything that would. Can anyone actually imagine that combat style? :) rv

    PBH II - Defensive Sweep

    The text and rules are slightly differant. The text says 'forcing them to move away' while the rule says 'does not move' and that a 5 foot step is good enough. So, does the opponent have to move AWAY or just 5' step sideways to avoid the AoO? Also, while this feat talks about waving a weapon...
