10-27-06, 03:42 PM Chain Spell Metamagic feat hits every target within 30ft of the primary target. So if I targeted a Magical Item with Dispel Magic on an Item would the Chain Spell Feat hit every magic item within 30ft of the primary targeted item?

Hell no.

Follow it up with killing the poor sap before his items turn back on so you can loot the whole perfectly funtional lot of them.

Who needs Disjunction?

Who needs Disjunction?:heehee I was just imagining the facial expressions of the rest of the gaming group if someone actually did what Tarkin described. I think it would be alot like what you see when a bunch of guys are watching sports, and some player gets hit in the nuts real hard. It is devestatingly effective, but not alot of people would even want to watch it happen to someone else, much less experience it themselves. :D

10-27-06, 06:04 PM Targetted Dispel can also target a person and attempt to dispell all of the ongoing spells cast on them, as opposed to the Area version which only hits one spell per creature.

Target someone, hit their allies for good measure, then go after magic items. With one additional target per caster level, and perhaps levels of Master Specialist (Abjurer) for an additional +5 to your dispel check that bypasses the caster level cap, you could probably strip an encounter fairly effectively.
