... If it is a precast spell, its effects have already been accounted for in the balancing of the encounter. It doesn't break the CR in those cases because we...

See, Steve, there's the thing. I've rarely adventured in an LG group since Spikes was first made legal that it was NOT being used by the PCs. Even without...
Playtesteing is far from perfect as we have already established. Spells don't generally get considered in the EL calculation. The EL calculations are crude and...

Hmmm, that's interesting. I would say that unless the creature also has "vulnerability to fire" in their SQ, they aren't. That section of the SRD (reprinted...

I know, although I'm using the core books instead of the SRD since there are differences and the SRD isn't the primary source for rules. As I said, it's just...
I have never seen Spikes or Brambles cast at any table in the County of Urnst, PC or NPC. Am I in the minority or just sitting at the wrong tables? Anthony...
I don't think that your position is tenable. I agree that it is an odd place, and they should have included vulnerability to fire as a separate ability rather...

That sounds reasonable. But what makes you think it was a mistake, or that the mistake is obvious? I suppose you might argue that they meant Cold Subtype and...
I am receiving a lot of table variation on the issue of reach weapons and soft cover re AoO's lately. It seems clear to me how it works but the opposite is...
Because in the Monster Manual, the corresponding entries are Cold and Fire Subtype. The MM expands and corrects a lot of those entries, and is the primary...
having just checked the monster manual (and the SRD I have), there is nothing in the glossary (or typessubtypesabilities in the SRD) called Cold Immunity or...
The ability Cold Immunity is only listed in the DMG. There is nothing in the MM that contradicts the DMG, so the rules for which takes precedence do not come...

There are some minor differences between the SRD and the published books, but you can certainly use the SRD for almost everything. If there's a difference...
No, I am not implying they are the same. In fact, I believe them to be totally different (and that the Immunity to Cold entry shouldn't exist in the DMG). ...
