Lycanthromancer's got a lot of stuff to deal with IRL. I haven't heard from him in a long time.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / The Great Shadow Debate
« on: June 10, 2017, 10:08:47 PM »
For years, it has been debated whether a spellcaster can willingly forgo a saving throw for his own Shadow spell.

We all know that some saves do not need to be made.

Quote from: Voluntarily Giving up a Saving Throw

A creature can voluntarily forego a saving throw and willingly accept a spell's result. Even a character with a special resistance to magic can suppress this quality.

The chief issue is this bit of rules text:

Quote from: Saving Throws and Illusions (Disbelief)

Creatures encountering an illusion usually do not receive saving throws to recognize it as illusory until they study it carefully or interact with it in some fashion.

A successful saving throw against an illusion reveals it to be false, but a figment or phantasm remains as a translucent outline.

A failed saving throw indicates that a character fails to notice something is amiss. A character faced with proof that an illusion isn't real needs no saving throw. If any viewer successfully disbelieves an illusion and communicates this fact to others, each such viewer gains a saving throw with a +4 bonus.

Gentlemen, I am proud to announce that I have resolved the issue once and for all. This shall definitively settle the issue of whether or not a spellcaster can believe in a spell he knows to be false!

Comrades, we must abandon this foolish and feudalistic economy for glorious post-scarcity magi-communism that the spellcasting system makes possible.

Not psionic, so no psionic talent shenanigans. Not a factotum, so no FoI. What do you do when you find yourself with, say, 7 feats to burn at level 3 for some reason?

Make like the Tarrasque and Toughness.

I think the makeup of the feat rouge is great for a brush with dipping, but regular rouge is a more versatile base.

NY Times is reporting executive order adding Bannon to Security Council was at least partially written by Bannon, Trump wasn't briefed on it, and didn't find out it added Bannon to Council till after he signed it.

You mean the failing New York Times, very biased, terribly unfair.

Facebook: Bringing God back to America!
Comment: Trump is barely religious.
Facebook: But he had more priests at his inauguration than anyone else!
Comment: Yeah and they all prayed for God to guide Trump as a last ditch effort.

The Pope is on record as having made a statement to that effect.

Did I typo a sentence again?
I will have you know that technically wrong is the best kind of wrong.
You know what, technically Bluff's "suggestion" isn't actually the Suggestion Spell, copying the effects != same thing.

So you're the best kind of wrong.  :P
No. No wrong. You're the wrong.

That's where you're wrong, kiddo.
Technically it's not, but even more unfortunately you failed your Sense Motive Check.

Skills don't auto fail on a Natural 1 and Glibness doesn't help using Bluff to instill a "suggestion". That +50 bonus to the opposing roll means that in all but the most extreme examples Bluff never actually reaches a level of being an inferior version of Suggestion.

Not sure where you're going with this. You said that Bluff isn't suggestion, I'm saying it has an epic skill use that's suggestion.

Bluff is one of the greatest skills in the game but it's not Suggestion.
That's where you're wrong, kiddo.

Ferengi, eh? Why not crib from The Rules of Acquisition?
