No big deal at the time until she bought a magical whip and attacked with it from within an Antimagic Field. The two camps are as follows: 1. Treating it like a magic arrow and it gets its magical bonuses when striking an opponent 15 feet away as the field only reaches 10 feet. 2. Since some if not most of the whip is in the field the whole whip is considered non-magical. The other option she came up with is a Whip Dagger and only enchanting the dagger portion on the end. Thoughts? |
| qwerty105-08-07, 12:31 PM | My Camp is similar to this: 2. Since some if not most of the whip is in the field the whole whip is considered non-magical. However I would say that only the length of the whip in the antimagic field looses its magicability. That's my :twocents:. |
| SephDragoon05-08-07, 01:01 PM | Ask yourself... if a weapon was mostly outside of the antimagic field, could it strike the person within? The answer is no... anything within the field is deactivated, and anything outside is not... Still this is a pretty bad tactic, as the wizard will get completely owned if a fighter walks into that field. |
| mvincent05-08-07, 01:06 PM | From the 3.5 FAQ: "If I attack from inside an antimagic field (PH 200) using a magic weapon, do I gain the benefit of the weapon if the target is outside the antimagic field? What about if I attack from outside against a target inside? In neither case does the weapon’s benefit apply. Both the attacker and the target must be outside the antimagic field for any magic of the weapon (or other effects) to apply. (If you made a ranged attack across an antimagic field—that is, from outside the area, across some part of the spell’s area, against another target outside the area—the attack would resolve normally.)" |
