The spell description says dazed creature can "takes no actions" and "not stunned, so attackers get no special advantage". If they were not allowed an opposing strength role, then the tripper would gain an advantage. An automatic trip.
StruckingFuggle 04-23-06, 03:30 AM	Blur+Displacement: Are they cumulative giving a 70% miss chance? No, if only because it's two seperate miss chances. If you want to fold 20% and 50% into one roll, it'd be a 60% miss chance.

Miss chances from different effects (incorporealness, entropic shield, etc.) would be checked separately (or combined mathematically). Nothing about the description of the "daze" condition would imply that the character can't oppose checks. Opposing a check is fundamentally the same as defending yourself, which a dazed creature can do without penalty. However, a dazed creature can't make any attacks, so you need not worry about being subject to an attack of opportunity or being tripped in response.

DMDaddy 04-23-06, 11:20 PM	Thanks all. I decided to use what the PHB said under concealment. You take the best of the two, but they do not stack.
