[QUOTE="Geron Raveneye, post: 2090126, member: 2268"] First question: Small house - how small? If we're talking "standard" height, we have 2,50 meters. If your wizard wasn't a halfling or a gnome, there's not been enough room for that monk to jump over the shield anyway. Second: [i]Shield[/i] grants a 3/4 cover bonus, thus it is reasonable to assume we're dealing with a large mobile disk of force. Jumping over one will take quite a bit...but that's what the monk is all about. From the spell description, though, I'd say it's possible, as the disk rotates around a vertical axis, not a horizontal one also. And it's a disk, not a half-globe. So jumping over it to land on the wizard behind it should be possible. Third: An attack during your move action is the province of the [i]Spring Attack[/i] feat. Ys, I know, creative thinking of the players and all, and I personally prefer to give my players more leeway with their actions, too, if it's not abused, but by the RAW, that kind of action is done via [i]Spring Attack[/i]. Fourth: Where did the monk want to land? On the wizard in question? If he was backed in a corner, the monk didn't have any space behind to jump in? [/QUOTE]
