[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 97157, member: 2209"] [b]#2 Monte's view[/b] For #2 Mind blank interaction Here is Monte Cook's response to whether Mind blank protects against True Strike My first response, upon seeing the question was, "of course not." As I read through Mind Blank and True Strike, I still thought, "of course not" until I got to the line: "This spell protects against all mind-affecting spells and effects as well as information gathering by divination spells or effects." Oooh. Now it's tough. That's sort of the backstory of what's going on in the True Strike spell. I can tell you that I don't think it was designer intent for it to work against Mind Blank (no one had thought of it, to be honest). If you were a player in my game and brought this up, though, I'd allow Mind Blank to protect against True Strike. Monte [/QUOTE]
