[QUOTE="Ganders, post: 7541816, member: 37815"] A wizard (whose Strength is 12) is walking along the road one day on the way to a nearby town and gets bored. So she decides to see how far she can jump. There are no pits or obstacles, no combat or other urgency, just a normal, flat, straight road. She doesn't have the Jump spell, so she just jumps the normal way. First she stands still and jumps forward. She manages to move forward 6 feet. Then she takes a running start and manages to jump 12 feet forward. Ok, fine, simple enough. It's all right there on page 182 of the PHB. But then she gets the clever idea to jump while levitating. So she casts Levitate on herself, then adjusts her height to low enough that her feet can touch the ground. She pushes off with her feet to do a standing long jump, while still concentrating on the Levitate spell. Question 1: How far does she move forward this time, and when she comes to a stop how high is she -- is she still low enough for her feet to touch the ground? When that's done, she lowers herself to just the right height again, and pushes herself forward with a running motion for ten feet followed by her best leap for distance, while still concentrating on the spell. Question 2: How far does she move forward this time, and when she comes to a stop how high is she -- is she still low enough for her feet to touch the ground? Now she gets the clever idea of using a ten foot pole to help her leap further. She does a running leap again, while still concentrating on levitating, but also pushes off with the pole (kinda like a pole vaulter but she's still hoping for distance, not height). Question 3: How far does she move forward this time, and when she comes to a stop how high is she -- is she still low enough for her feet to touch the ground? [/QUOTE]
