[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 6845002, member: 5834"] [b]Pre-encounter Questions[/b] [b]Flamestrike[/b], The gnome will Investigate the Planar Rift with assistance from Jubali and Dom. His Passive Investigation is 25 with Observation. If you don't allow Passive Investigation, what kind of bonus will you give me for the Observation feat for the Passive Investigation bonus. His knowledge Arcane is +10 with advantage for assistance from Jubali. Seebo's Arcana rolls with assistance from Jubali: (17,4) 27 Seebo's Investigation with assistance if you require a roll: (4,9) 19 (25 if Passive Investigation allowed) with whatever bonus for Observation if you don't allow Passive Investigation. Given [b]Iserith[/b] and I's discussion, I understand some DM's don't allow Passive Investigation checks. That seriously undermines the Observation feat. I feel some kind of bonus should be given if a feat is to be weakened by disallowing Passive Investigation. Dom's knowledge religion check: (12)+5=17 Questions I have: Will the rift itself kill us if we enter? What are the negative effects of entering the rift? Any unusual traits we should be aware of? Is the rift itself alive? If I can determine if this thing will kill us or not, that will affect how I go about entering. [/QUOTE]
