Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kalendraf" data-source="post: 3110265" data-attributes="member: 3433">From the SRD, the reach of a spiked chain is 10' for both medium and small sized characters.  The only difference is the damage (2d8 for medium vs. 1d6 for small).In other words, it acts much like a range increment for a ranged weapon.  For example, whether the wielder is medium or small, the range of a sling is 50', and it's only the damage that varies.That does seem to be a recurring theme in 90% of these responses.  That's somewhat unfortunate because as escaped slaves we don't have a lot of gold to work with, and the ability to buy magic items is somewhat problematic as well.For the record, my current items are as follows:+1 Spiked chain w/ special ability to forego damage on an attack and attempt to grapple a foe (STR 15) upon command at which point it can be dropped and continue the grapple (just got this last session, so I have no idea how useful it will be, but I'll obviously need a 2nd spiked chain for times I use the special ability)Shadow Shroud (+2 deflection AC, 20% miss while in shadows)Charm Necklace (+2 profane AC vs undead)+2 Bracers of DefenseScarab of Golembane (stone)Potion of Remove Paralysis7 Magic sling bullets (no idea what they are yet, rolled a 1 on my only attack with one and lost it in a swamp)Several vials of Alchemist fire (which did most of his damage in the last session), Acid and Holy Water.I also have a +1 Cloak of Resistance being crafted at the moment, and I have about 6K gold left to spend at the moment.</blockquote>
