| #1voodoomagicianMay 19, 2009 2:56:19 | Born of the Three Thunders is pretty obvious when it comes to things like lightning bolt, every one hit has to make a save or is stunned, but what about more complicated spells? ones that hit or trigger multiple times? would you only make the save once, or every time the spell hits? The same question goes for +X to spell damage abilities, when and when does it not trigger? I throw the following spells up for consideration Flame Whip (energy sub) (MiC) Two 15ft 6d6 touch attacks every round Moonbow (MiC) 1d4 "motes" of directable lightning (on a side note with moonbow, the effect says 1d4 motes but the description says a flat 3 @_@, anyone know which it is?) Storm touch (MoEb) 9d6 electric touch attack which you can use with BaB. CL in touches available. Thunderhead (MiC) 1 lightning strike every round on target for 1 damage. Your thoughts? |

The feat is written with spells like Lighting Bolt in mind, so without rules to adjudicate what happens if the spell deals damage every round you only process the effect once (when it casts.) If you want a STRICT RAW reading, then you only process it once when the spell ends ("concludes") so if it lasts 5 rounds, then the save or be knocked prone effect happens on the last round. |
