11-25-07, 02:41 AM Do warlocks draw on the weave? Are they effected by dead magic zones?

How come?

Thanks

Nope, nothing that jumps out at me anyway, but thanks for your quick reply and I'd never seen that link before so now I have it saved!

Either way I'll say no They don't "Weave" that Raw magic to makeit a spell, They use that RAW power directly

Anybody else wanna weigh in on this one? What I'm getting right now is that if somebody brings a Warlock into the Anaroch dead magic zone they'll be business as usual.

I'm trying to figure out if that ruling is correct or not and why?? Help

Any chance you could point me at the thread that it came up before in? I'd like to read it.

11-26-07, 10:30 PM [Unofficially], yes warlocks derive their power from the weave. Their powers are spell-like abilities that are subject to wild magic, dead magic zones, anti-magic fields, and other issues that affect spells.

11-27-07, 11:51 AM I wish I could, but this thread was just after Complete Arcane came out. But there was some support to the arguement. Can't remember the exact rules, but it is basicly the same reason why Beholders rays don't work in an anti magic field.
