[QUOTE="Panask, post: 2495244, member: 35448"] According to the 3.5 PHB, when you hit a character with a net, the "entangled character takes a -2 penalty on attack rolls and a -4 penalty on Dexterity, can move at only half speed, and cannot charge or run.... If the entangled creature attempts to cast a spell, it must make a DC 15 Concentration check or be unable to cast the spell." Have there been any clarifications on these rules? When you're netted, can you freely: - Use any melee weapons, including a longsword or a spiked chain? - Use any ranged weapon, including a bow or a sling? - Move and move? - Take a 5-ft. step and make a full attack? - Change weapons? - Get things out of your pack? Many of these things would seem to me to be diffiuclt or impossible if you're entangled in a net (as opposed, say, to being affected by an [i]entangle[/i] spell), but I haven't seen any rules that mention them. Also, if you try to cut yourself out of a net from the inside, what kind of weapons can you use? Do you have to make an attack roll, and how much damage do you do? Does a net have a hardness? And what if you're trying to cut someone out from the outside? I'm also interested in people's house rules on these subjects, but I realize that's another forum.
