Flying and Web

[Nvvyn]

What happens if you are flying through the air, and someone targets a Wand of Web at you?

That really depends on what, if anything is near the flying character. If he is near a tree or wall or something, then the spell acts normally...

But if he is up in the air, away from everything, then, he makes a reflex save, or his limbs are stuck and immoble from the rest of his body. He would also be covered in the sticky stuff and not able to get any equipment out etc. But if he is using the fly spell, it would still function as normal.

 

[Nvvyn]

So he would still be able to fly? or would he fall and take dmg?

Web needst to be anchored to solid objects though, so essentially nothing would happen.

Guys, the answer is right in the spell descritpion:

...These masses must be anchored to two or more solid and diametrically opposed points—floor and ceiling, opposite walls, etc.—or else the web collapses upon itself and disappears. ...

Assuming you have the required diametrically opposed sufraces:

Anyone in the effect’s area when the spell is cast must make a Reflex save. If this save succeeds, the creature is not stuck in the webs and is free to act, though moving may be a problem (see below). If the save fails, the creature is stuck.

There you have it. If there is something confusing in there, please ask about it.

That depends on how or what he is using too fly.

Well... If you are going to quote the rules... then I don't want to play!!!

I agree... please ignore my previous brainfart...

You wouldn't even be entangled right? What counts as a solid surface? Brush, tree's, etc?

...two or more solid and diametrically opposed points -- floor and ceiling, opposite walls, etc.—...

Certainly not branches. Not bushes, either. A tree trunk sounds right, though. And maybe really big branches (the kind that you cannot break).

 

[Lord Ben]

So with tree trunks would you need a vertical web instead of horizontal?
