[QUOTE="Storm Raven, post: 285117, member: 307"] [B][/b] Of course, the [i]monk's[/i] text [i]does[/i] state that it is a supernatural ability, and [i]doesn't[/i] state that it is used differently from normal supernatural abilities. So your logic train derails right there. Your argument makes no sense. [b][/b] Since your arguments have no actual basis in the text of the rules, we can safely discard them as being uninformed and irrelevant. [b][/b] Because they are weapons. This is not a hard concept to get. And yet you seem to think it is. [b][/b] Gauntlets of Ogre Power are [i]gauntlets[/i], just like any other set. Weapons, just like the ones listed in the PHB. [b][/b] I'm being condescending because you are acting like a three year old. You don't read the books. You don't know the rules. Yet you keep saying that your completely incorrect application of them is actually correct. Someone acting that foolish deserves condescension. [b][/b] Someone asked a [i]rules related question[/i]. One that doesn't require judgment, just a reading of the rules. I referred to the primary source of clarification of the rules. That is what one usually does when confronted by people asking rules questions: one consluts the books and text. One does not, as you like to do, make stuff up as you go. [b][/b] Gloves are not weapons. Boots are not weapons. Gauntlets are. Perhaps you need to actually read the books before you try to form arguments. I didn't say that. I said that the fact that you didn't (whether or not your couldn't) check your facts before you decided to opine and then decided to make uninformed statements was worthy of derision. You [i]should[/i] have waited until you could check your facts before trying to talk on the subject. You would look far less silly. [/QUOTE]
