06-21-06, 10:02 PM If there's a deadzone/antimagic field somewhere, and a wizard summons a giant rock or something above it, will the rock drop into the field and not be unsummoned? Would the duration of the spell make a difference?

06-21-06, 10:22 PM If by summon you mean call in something from a different dimension or plane (as is the case with Summon Monster xx), then upon entering the field the summoned object would as the description on Antimagic Field says 'wink' out of existence, to return to the same point should the field be removed before the summon spells' duration expires.

However if the wizard simply teleported an object (the rock in this case), from one point to another above the field and let it fall it would continue down into the field as it is not a magically created or summoned object.

If the Rock was an Evocation it'd wink out.
If the Rock was a Conjuration (creation) it'd fall onto the AMF with no problem.
If the Wizard used Telekinesis to move a Rock above the AMF, gravity would prevail.

The key is is the Rock real or magically formed and held together.
