[QUOTE="two, post: 2069545, member: 9002"] Solid Fog reads, in part: ___________________________________________ Solid Fog [...] This spell functions like fog cloud, but in addition to obscuring sight, the solid fog is so thick that any creature attempting to move through it progresses at a speed of 5 feet, regardless of its normal speed, and it takes a -2 penalty on all melee attack and melee damage rolls. The vapors prevent effective ranged weapon attacks (except for magic rays and the like). A creature or object that falls into solid fog is slowed, so that each 10 feet of vapor that it passes through reduces falling damage by 1d6. A creature can't take a 5-foot step while in solid fog. ___________________________________________ What does "progresses at a speed of 5 feet, regardless of its normal speed" mean? Does it mean if your move is normally 30'/round, it's now 5'/round? Can you run at a rate of 5' X 4 = 20' in a Solid Fog? Can you move 5', and do a MEA? Can you move 5' and attack? Can you double-move -- going 10' in the Solid Fog? Is moving 5' in the Solid Fog a full-round action or something, or just a normal move? And if it's a normal move, how come you can't move 5' twice? Or can you? *confused, as normal* [/QUOTE]
