Doubt about Familiars and mounts

[Empirate]

Because of this entry in the spell description's header: "Range: Touch".


Also, Frank, on the Share Spells thing: you think I can't dismiss a spell that's affecting two targets on one target only? Probably right, I didn't think of that. However, you most certainly can dispel a spell on only one of the targets (using a targeted dispel), can't you?

Why would you think you could? It is one spell. What would keep it going if it is dispelled?

Subject the rules for Share Spells also gets brought up here...

Touch.

Again, why would you call a Touch spell a touch "range" spell? This doesn't make sense. Is there any place in the books that a Touch spell is referred to a "touch range spell?" If not, then saying a spell that was previously a "Target: You" is now a touch range spell would be inconsistent, the book would simply say it becomes a Touch spell.

Spell Turning

Spells and spell-like effects targeted on you are turned back upon the original caster. The abjuration turns only spells that have you as a target. Effect and area spells are not affected. Spell turning also fails to stop touch range spells.

Dispelling a spell affecting several targets on only one of the targets shouldn't be a question, IMHO. For example, if the whole party is subject to a Slow spell, and they all fail their save; the Wizard casts Dispel Magic (targeted dispel) on himself, since the Fighter, Rogue and Cleric have a bunch of important buffs running; do you think the whole Slow spell would just go away, on the whole party if the Wizard succeeds on his dispelling check?

No. And similarly, a Shared spell dispelled on one target of the spell doesn't dispel the whole spell. Share Spells just allows you to give a spell you cast on yourself an additional target. For example, you could give Shield cast on yourself a second target when Sharing it with your familiar. Haste cast at CL 5 can have up to 6 targets if you cast it on yourself, four party members, and your familiar. And so on.

PHB page 36: Additionally, the druid may cast a spell with a target of “You” on her animal companion (as a touch range spell) instead of on herself.

PHB page 45: Additionally, the paladin may cast a spell with a target of “You” on her mount (as a touch range spell) instead of on herself.

PHB page 53: Additionally, the master may cast a spell with a target of “You” on his familiar (as a touch range spell) instead of on himself.

PHB page 282: A ghostly, glowing hand shaped from your life force materializes and moves as you desire, allowing you to deliver low-level, touch range spells at a distance.

PHB page 282: For as long as the spell lasts, any touch range spell of 4th level or lower that you cast can be delivered by the spectral hand.​

PHB page 282: Spell turning also fails to stop touch range spells.

Complete Arcane page 82: Touch range spells cannot be affected by this feat.

Unearthed Arcana page 94: Unlike spell turning, however, the Residual Rebound feat potentially functions against touch range spells as well.

I found the answer in 20 seconds when I went to the SRD. I just didn't bother to look before asking the question.
