I'm not a native speaker, so I may assume more rigidity then is actually there. Can you show me one other instance in the english language where the word within is used as you describe - something that just starts within a certain time frame - without using the words "begins, starts" (or o...

Yes, but casting it from the 1st to the 100th round means that you didn't cast it "within" one round - it's nitpicky, but we're talking about RAW, not RAI: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/de/worterbuch/englisch/within The sentence you quoted doesn't say anything about the usual targeting ...

Spells that break general rules usually do say so - for example, Nerve Skitter explicitly says that it can be cast flat-footed, unlike other immediate action spells. The Planar binding line doesn't say so - instead, it explicitly lists a "Target:" line, which implies the targeting rules a...

Actually, the RAW wording of Planar Binding in 3.5 was no better - it is also non-functional. You need to back that up. From what I remember, the rules where all over the book (looking at inversed magical circle) and you wanted to have high charisma. But they where functional. 1) The Planar Binding...

The paladin spell table on page 49 is laid out so it lays over rules text. I haven't looked at the whole tome, maybe this problem exists with other tables, too.

a) Depends on the nature of the support, I guess? Also, if you can afford it. I think it takes a year or 3 for a new business to start making money, so... b) It will make all of those questions about "why did you leave your last job?" interesting. c) Much easier to look for a job while yo...

What? Why would the weight matter? It weighs as much as a cloth cone weighs while shrunk. Nope, it just has the composition of one: You are able to shrink one nonmagical item (if it is within the size limit) to 1/16 of its normal size in each dimension ( to about 1/4,000 the original volume and mas...

How about the Wizard's Hat/Tinfoil Hat defense? Antimagic Field is dangerous, but can be defeated with a bit of prep. You get a tall metal cone, big enough to stand in. Then you cast Shrink Item on it, turning it into a cloth cone which you wear as a hat. When you enter an AMF, it snaps back to ful...

Soo... In one of those pairs, I got feelings not only for the girl, but also the guy (I didn't realize/know I was bisexual before).

He means your effective WBL, but Pathfinder designers say they like CWI making it double as long as it is your own wealth by level (not your allies).

As I have previously pointed out. The rules for Creature Sizes say 64ft or more. There are no rules that indicate that the Creature Size rules apply to item sizes, so there are no rules saying that Objects larger than 64ft are Colossal. It's kind of stupid, but in the PHB "Guidelines and gloss...
