Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Q 559
Uncanny Dodge (Ex)
At 2nd level, a barbarian retains his Dexterity bonus to AC (if any) even if he is caught flat-footed or struck by an invisible attacker. However, he still loses his Dexterity bonus to AC if immobilized.Sneak Attack
If a rogue can catch an opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from her attack, she can strike a vital spot for extra damage.
The rogue’s attack deals extra damage any time her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the rogue flanks her target.
Does this mean that a rogue can still make a sneak attack against an opponent with the Uncanny Dodge feat whenever this opponent is flat-footed, even though this feat allows the opponent to keep his or her Dexterity bonus while flat-footed?
I believe I read this interpretation in some thread somewhere, but I would like to determine whether this is really a generally accepted interpretation of the RAW. If there is some controversy, please invite me to devote a separate thread to this question.

No. You can only sneak attack under one of two conditions: The target is denied its DEX bonus to AC or you are flanking the target. Being flat-footed is not one of them, even though being flat-footed often causes the target to lose its DEX bonus to AC. Uncanny Dodge explicitly removes the loss of the DEX bonus to AC. So a character with Uncanny Dodge can only be sneak attacked by fulfilling the other condition (i.e. flanking him). Improved Uncanny dodge removes the flanking condition as well for all but the most advanced sneak attackers.

A 448 Yes.
Shadow Conjuration mimics Sorcerer/Wizard spells. In doing so, it mimics the descriptors of those spells.
A 448a Yes.
Shadow creatures have 20% of the hit points of normal creatures of their type, but the regular number of hit dice. Detect <alignment> spells will register the same aura power as if they were creatures summoned normally.

Is there any non-magical way to change your character size, preferably something available at character creation? Thinking specifically of warforged here.Last edited by WarKitty; 2015-03-29 at 06:15 PM.

Most simply, you could start as a different race, or apply a variety of templates. Anything that gets you to Larger or larger, and almost anything that gets you to Tiny or smaller, will have an LA attached to it, though.Time travels in divers paces with divers persons.

Most items which specify a recharge time state dawn or morning. None that I know of state midnight or after 24 hours. You'll need to get your DM to decide for unstated items, but the "dawn" refresh pattern is pretty clear:Undead Controlling armor property (Dungeon Master's Guide)

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Q 464: If a character has a pair of spiked gauntlets per the entry in the players handbook as a weapon (Presently with just a casting of greater magic weapon on them form the party caster, but will later have actual enchantments on them.) Can they were items such a Gloves of Dexterity under them on the grounds that one is there to be a weapon and the other is there to be an actual item?

The character can wear both the gloves and the gauntlets but only the item equipped first will provide any abilities. It is irrelevant whether one is used as a weapon or not or whether the bonus on the gauntlets is permanent or due to a spell:

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Except that were in the dungeon and player got the gloves on a loot drop, so no chance to transfer them before we get to the final boss whom I'm fairly certain is gonna kill at least 1 or 2 characters. I was hoping by technicality she could do both and increase her AC, Reflex Save and Initiative by that extra +1 with out having to give up damage output when she TWF's. *Sigh.*

Q466
By RAW, two-handed weapons require a full round action to throw, while light weapons and one-handed weapons can be thrown as a standard action.

Almost. You can't make a full attack with a thrown weapon unless you have a weird thrown weapon. You need multiple thrown weapons, and a method of drawing them for free. Quick Draw helps with that.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: Score and Nine
Well, yes, that's a given; obviously, multiple such weapons or Bloodstorm Blade 4 would be necessary to achieve such a full attack. Incidentally...
Q467
Does the text of the "Quick Draw" feat override the normal rules about the actions necessary to attack with a thrown weapon? For instance, can a character with BAB +16 and 4 sheathed greataxes full attack with said greataxes, despite the normal rules of throwing two-handed weapons saying that it would take a full round action to throw a single two-handed weapon?

This may not be exactly what you meant, but technically any suitable material (which is likely the purview of the DM) is only a few hours away from becoming a club due to their low cost and minimal craft DC.

This is the official description of an Elan.
Spoiler
Elans typically stand just under 6 feet tall and weigh in the neighborhood of 180 pounds, with men sometimes taller and heavier than women, but not always.
Q 469
Can a creature with no special ability like improved grab or similar initiate a grapple despite having no free hand (like for example a human bandit wielding a shield and a one-handed weapon)?

Elans are essentially humans that have been transformed via psionic rituals into immortal aberrations; as such, they are as varied in appearance as humans are. There are only two addendums to this: firstly, despite appearing to be completely human, some difficult-to-define quality makes Elans stand out from humans, although this is not so much an aspect of their appearance so much an aspect of their idiosyncrasies putting people off a bit; secondly, as Elans-to-be are selected by existing Elans (or sometimes other people), a particular generation of Elans may share traits preferred by those involved in the selection process (for instance, in the Expanded Psionics Handbook, it is mentioned that the current Elan generation has a tendency towards "pale skin, red hair, and a youthful quality").

Spoiler: Hidden Question -> Hidden AnswerThree attacks total, with limitations. Two-Weapon Spring Attack lets you attack once each with two different weapons, while Bounding Assault gives you an extra attack, which must be the second attack made as part of your Spring Attack (thus split between the two Two-Weapon Spring Attack attacks).

Q 471 I have read that some other forms of turning call out that they may be used in the place of turn undead for divine feats. What are these other forms of turning that may be used for this purpose, and in what source material is it clarified? Thanks in advance.
