[QUOTE="Aluvial, post: 483451, member: 6862"] When using a ranged attack or ranged touch attack at an opponent that has mutiple cover how do you add up the protection? My specific case involves an archer (+9) and a mage (attacks with a ray, +5) standing side by side trying to target an opponent (AC 19, Touch 12) who has cover from two things (creature and PC) that are directly in line. The first guy in the way is a PC (AC 21, Touch 12). He is fighting a Hill Giant Skeleton (AC 15, Touch 9) who is also directly in line with the opponent. A smallish map.... (assume that the wizard is also directly in line.) Archer...................................PC..Giant...........................Opponent Wizard First, I need to figure the cover granted, I know, and effectively that IS my first question? I'm not sure how to resolve that. Second, how do I figure the two attacks (the arrow and the ray)? What are the different situations that could occur for each, i.e., what rolls would be needed to hit which object? Aluvial [/QUOTE]
