Message: <blockquote data-quote="coyote6" data-source="post: 447975" data-attributes="member: 1225">Recall the context:The person casting the anchor is one of the attackers teleporting in to slaughter some poor innocent villain (or PC; either way), and the innocent villain/PC is planning to avoid the Scry-Teleport attack by bravely teleporting away. As the target in this play, he's going to be in on the Partial Action surprise round fun, so he just uses that action -- which he gets before Villain Wizard gets to do anything -- to Ready an action to nail the first guy starting a teleport spell. An improvised kind of counterspell, using similar mechanics -- Spellcraft check; yup, tall-pointy-hat-longbeard is casting teleport; nail him with a dimensional anchor spell. No save, just a ranged touch attack; so barring SR, it's "stick around for the beat down" city, baby.I think that ought to be specific enough readying conditions. Even if it's not, well, the Scry-Teleport team has a decent chance of knowing something about the target(s), so they'll likely know who needs an anchor, and can just skip the Ready/Delay runaround, and just ZAP the guy.</blockquote>
