Hello all!
Here are two situations that came up in a recent game. Any light you could shine on these matters via RAW would be helpful.
1. Can a creature charge through squares occupied by a swarm and suffer no effects, assuming that the charge begins and ends in squares not occupied by the swarm? I know swarms cannot make Attacks of Opportunity.
2. Does uncanny dodge trump a succesful feint ?
Uncanny dodge prevents the rogue (or barbarian) from being flatfooted. denies the bonus usually enjoyed by invisible attackers and allows the rogue to make attacks of opportunity during a surprise round.
A successful feint denies the target any dex bonus --the text of feint does not say 'renders the target flatfooted', which allows room for 'flat-footed' and 'denied dex bonus' to be two different conditions. I know there will be lots of options on this second one; I'm wondering if this has been specifically addressed in any official text.
Thanks in advance,
--Z
