[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 2697018, member: 16989"] Yes, they can KNOW what spell the Cleric is casting, Cure Light Wounds. But, does that amount to anything? The RAW says Touch spells are Unarmed 'Armed' Strikes, though the reasoning is behind it is that "A Touch Spell Presents A Credible Threat". No mention is made of Touch Spells as "Uncredible Threats". So, say you are out of weapons, the Big, Bad Evil Cleric (Spellcraft +25) approaches you to Bash your Head in. Desperate, you cast Cure Light Wounds & now (by the RAW) you are now armed & He HAS TO TREAT YOU THIS WAY. He has to act like that you know have a dagger in your hand in terms of Combat Scenerios. That's just silly. Or is this dealt with elsewhere? I remeber no Mention of it under the Spellcraft Skill or in The Magic Section. The RAW seems to indicate ALL Touch Spells are Credible Threats, even if the foes obviously knows it isn't. [/QUOTE]
