[QUOTE="TwoHeadsBarking, post: 4781346, member: 82251"] Regarding the Arcane Sword: The part that confuses me is when it talks about what happens when your body is missing. When the encounter ends, the sword returns to your body. Not to the square in which you died, or the room, or the dungeon/region/dimension. It always returns to your body. So how can your body [I]not[/I] be there? Ok, I guess disintegration or rapid digestion could dispose of the body entirely before the encounter is over. I'd be willing to bet that it's only a matter of time before Wizards erratas Total Aegis to work with Ensnarement, and I think any reasonable DM would houserule it to do so. Regarding the Feyliege: If your dead body disappears when your older, more regal self appears, then it would not be present at the end of the encounter, meaning your older, more regal self would not be able to restore you to life. That's ok though, because who wouldn't want to be an older, more regal version of themselves (in case you haven't noticed, I get a kick out of their wording of that)? In both of these cases, I can see what the RAI are. I'm not trying to argue that. I just think they could have worded them a little better, which is really my issue with Arcane Power in general. I think it needed just a little more polish. [/QUOTE]
