| steventirey198504-07-08, 04:10 PM | Neither. He takes 1d6 fire damage + 1d6 fire damage. Pretty much the same as 2d6, but not quite. If the target had fire resistance 5, the 1d6 + 1d6 wouldn't hurt him (usually). But if it was 2d6 fire damage, he would still take an average of 2 damage. |
| Ananvilhurtz04-07-08, 04:14 PM | Thanks, you're right on the damage part. Where did you get the information? |
| steventirey198504-07-08, 04:28 PM | Common sense. If damaged by more that one weapon/attack, calculate the damage for each weapon/attack seperatly. |
| X0_Lt_0X04-07-08, 04:57 PM | Neither. He takes 1d6 fire damage + 1d6 fire damage. Pretty much the same as 2d6, but not quite. If the target had fire resistance 5, the 1d6 + 1d6 wouldn't hurt him (usually). But if it was 2d6 fire damage, he would still take an average of 2 damage. However, it would do 2d6 if you used a vial with two AF in it :D |
| Ananvilhurtz04-08-08, 12:35 AM | Common sense. If damaged by more that one weapon/attack, calculate the damage for each weapon/attack seperatly. While I agree with you, I was looking for more concrete evidence. The player argues that the damage is from being 'on fire' and that there are no magnitudes of 'on fire'. Standing in a candle flame is equivalent to a bonfire, apparently. |
| Nathreet04-08-08, 12:56 AM | big bonfire same as burning building. If you're covered you're covered. Question is, does 2 alchemist fire cover you more than one? |
| Ananvilhurtz04-08-08, 10:09 AM | Or does one cover you at all? An flask of alchemist fire isn't enough to cover a creature entirely. Plus the added fuel increases heat and damage. |
| TheGeek04-11-08, 07:58 PM | I would rule... 1d6+1d6 He can put it out with one reflex save, though. |
