[QUOTE="DM-Rocco, post: 3070372, member: 14451"] Okay, in a normal game, not so bad, but in low magic G&G, really [[i]edited by admin[/i]] stupid. AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!! :D :p :lol: Okay, I'm done ranting, here is my question. Does evasion only work on reflex saves that offer half damage on a successful save? I know that is how it is worded, but here is the senerio. I triggered a trap, I have to make three reflex saving throws. I made two and failed one. The saving throw wasn't for half damage, it was for all or none. This isn't really relavent, but the world is low magic (and actually our first trap in two and a half years so hardly any reflex save stuff to begin with) and this is the only time I remotely had a chance to use evasion and because of the way it is worded, it looks like it is worthless overall. So, two questions: 1) If it is a all or nothing save, would evasion come into play? 2) In a world where everything, or just about everything that requires a reflex save, is all or nothing, would you as a DM (or you as a player politely request of a DM) to make evasion a tad more useful? If so, how? Thanks for your time :) ;) :cool: [/QUOTE]
