Antimagic Field: two questions.

[TessarrianDM]

1. Description says "field suppresses any spell or magical effect used within, brought into, or cast into the area, but does not dispel it". Does this prevent a spellcaster who is inside of the field from casting ranged spells whose effects occur outside of the field (rays, area effect spells, or others with ranges over 10')?

2. Can a weapon, ammunition, or armor be enchanted with an antimagic field? If so, would you use the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat along with the DMG table 7-33 under "Spell Effect" to determine the price?

The description says that the area within field is impervious to spells and spell-like abilities, which means that even if you could cast a ranged spell within the field, it couldn't penetrate the field in order to move beyond it.

2. Can a weapon, ammunition, or armor be enchanted with an antimagic field? If so, would you use the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat along with the DMG table 7-33 under "Spell Effect" to determine the price?

Since the process requires you to bind magic into an item, and that magic is non-existent within the field, it seems pretty obvious that this can't work. You can't manipulate or control what isn't there.

EDIT: I read that second question as "can you enchant items within an antimagic field?"

D'oh!

1 Yes, you cannot use magic in the AMF.

2 Yes, as sure as you can put an AMF in a spell storing ring for exemple.
