[QUOTE="bestone, post: 3302038, member: 48880"] This statement also bugs me, you cannot reasonably expect wizards to be able to account for every situation possible for any spell or ability they make, that would be absurd. Sometimes unexpected things are going to pop up, and its up to a judgement call by the players (and ultimately the dm) to decide how things work. Im sure when they wrote haste, and zombies, they probably didnt have the other in mind, but really, what other situations leave you with a partial action? In your case of the "when due to circumstances" bit, does that mean when your staggered hast should fix you? no, it doesnt If you look at the effects of haste, and slow, and again look at the fact zombies are slowed, again, its up to interpretation, but i dont see how you could see it unreasonable, or argue with the fact, that someone is saying they are affected by slowness, that works much like the spell, and a spell that counters that slowness couldnt possibly work just because it didnt specifically state for this situation that it did work....... Do you think it un-balancing/game ruining to allow haste to funcion on a zombie? i doubt it If it were me, i'd rule, while hasted, a zombies slowness penalty is negated for the duration of the haste spell, gaining no further benefits associated with the spell [/QUOTE]
