Couple of issues I have noticed

Couple of things:

FIRST:

I play a Duergar Fighter/Monk/Cleric. I have taken healing domain and I noticed the other day that when I attack undead my cure serious which used to do 300 and sometimes 1000 hp on undead before the heal spell changes now does 30-40 hp.

I was attacking Morsatai at the time and I was blown away about how crap it was given that I have HEAL domain which should make it empowered.

SECOND:

Yesterday I was in a party and after some pking banter I was held by a Bigbies. Whilst I was held by the Bigbies the character using a bow performed a death attack. What was strange was that I was paralysed. Being a Duergar I should be immune to it. I know the Amazons and other guards that have freedom of movement are as well. Has something changed?

Thanks

check the ns4 change log thread about the bigby changes...if you fail the save, you are paralized.

Thanks for the reply.

By your logic then I should not be affected by Bigby's Grasping Hand. In the description it does not mention anything about paralysis. It says you are held if you fail a tumble roll off. If you fail you then need to make a str check.

Just want to be sure that is all. If it is a paralysis effect then I should be immune to the Grasping Hand Bigby and still affected by the others. Then agan if they all have a paralysis effect of some kind I should be immune to them all. Oh how wonderful would that be lol!

It would be nice if the devs on behalf of Joran who posted the Bigby changes can clarify this for those who play duergars. I know they are an elusive lot (the duergar players that is)

All the Bigsby spells bypass the immunities normally associated with their effects: Monks can be stunned, Dragons or RDDs can be paralyzed, and cats and dogs living together in peace. As it stands, the only way to currently avoid any of their effects is the manners noted in the change log itself, being Discipline/Tumble checks or dodging it with a high AC.
