Interesting. There's a question about dispel magic vs. supernatural and spell-like abilities, which clarifies that you can't dispel a (Su) effect, but you can dispel the lasting effect of a SLA. It doesn't make any reference to Skip's suggestion that SLAs might be counterable. (This is good, IMO, since it was a nutty idea anyhow.)

Other than that, it's mostly a bunch of questions about how natural attacks are different from wielded weapons. A few questions deal with other monster abilities, but nothing seems particuarly noteworthy.
 


One little blooper I caught was that (in the kyton question) he said that Evard's black tentacles and the Bigby's hand spells take damage as creatures do. That's correct for the hand spells, but in 3.5 the tentacles are immune to all kinds of damage. Skip's still thinking of 3e :)

The main thing that surprised me was the assertion that with natural weapons, a primary can get downgraded to secondary, but not the other way around. Somehow I thought that a secondary upgraded to primary (in a single attack) was possible, too (maybe I just assumed symmetry there).

Also, why waste space with the "tell me how tall a Medium creature is" question, that just references a table in the core books? I mean geez, don't clutter the FAQ with answers that are right in the core books to begin with.
