Message: <blockquote data-quote="Samothdm" data-source="post: 297228" data-attributes="member: 5473">I have a questions about reduce and enlarge spells.  I've been DM'ing a group with no spellcaster but a new player just joined and wants to play a wizard.  His idea is to take reduce and enlarge spells and do the following:1) Enlarge.  Specifically target an opponent's weapon so that it becomes so heavy that the opponent can't lift it or wield it effectively.a) Can you be that specific with the target of an "enlarge" spell?b) Does he need to make a "ranged attack" to hit someone (or something) with this spell?  (the rules don't say that he has to, but then again "magic-missile" says it automatically hits but enlarge doesn't specify that so I'm not sure which way is right)c) If he does need to make a ranged attack, could he combine enlarge with a quickened "True Strike" spell to make his attack more accurate?d) Also, if he needs to make a ranged attack, by trying to hit his opponent's weapon would he take the penalty associated with attacking a weapon?2) Reduce.  He wants to use this to shrink an opponent's armor so that the armor will slowly crush his opponent and cause him damage.a-d) Basically, same questions as above, plus:e) If he can use the spell this way, how much damage would that cause?I looked through the FAQ and couldn't find answers to these questions.  I hope they're not too dumb but I don't have a lot of spellcasters in my game so we've never encountered this before.Thanks in advance.</blockquote>
