For those of you who own a 3.0 Player's Handbook...

I have a very stupid question: does the Harm spell have a saving throw listed?

The SRD 3.0. has the "Saving Throw:none" version, but one of my friends says that there's a version with a "Saving Throw:Fortitude" shown.

Is that true?

Thanks in advance!

None that I'm aware of. I've got it at home, but it didn't have a save in 3.0.

Is this just a faked copy?

Yes, that picture is from a collection of counterfeit PHB's.

Fake copies of D20 material is right up there with weapons when talking about the interest of big time criminals .

 

[Patryn of Elvenshae]

Well, my PHB doesn't have a pure white background; it's off white, with lines in a slightly darker color.

It must be. That's a perfect image of that part of the page in my 3.0 PHB, except that mine says 'Saving Throw: None'.

Is this just a faked copy?

Looking at it closely, the font does not match that in my 3.0 PHB, and the line that breaks like "If used on an undead creature, harm acts / like heal." breaks between harm and acts in my PHB. My suspicion is that the above was generated from some other source.

No there is no Save, however I have House Ruled that it does (we have yet to make a complete leap to 3.5e due to the cost of replacing some books) due to the Players defeat of a villian in one campaign.

Otherwise villian need only be touched by the Cleric to be within one round of death.

 

[Patryn of Elvenshae]

Yep, got my 3.0 PHB in front of me. The color is wrong, the font is wrong, and the last line break is wrong.

That's a phony source; no idea why someone would go to such lengths.

Maybe it was just a printed SRD? Its not like it's illegal or anything. At least they fixed the Harm spell.
