Tiefling Darkness

Post by Gornickthy »

Why is it that the tielfing darkness is dispellable being that it is a racial ability? The earth gen ability is not dispellable correct? So.... why is the tielfling's ability dispellable?

because the earth gen is made of stone...which is reflectedin his ability.

your tiefling isn't made of darkness. it casts darkness at a caster lvl = to your char lvl..so its a spell...so it gets stripped.

Ok, as long as it gets tougher to strip... it just seems as if it is getting stripped almost as soon as it goes up. It seemed almost pointless to try at times. But, good to know how it works. Thanks for the explanation of the ability. :D

although being cast off an item it might be a set caster lvl with a set dc....not exactly sure how it worked out, but i just thought you'd like to know why its strippable ;)

I have come to face the facts... I guess I will just have to PK people to make myself feel better. :twisted:

Why dose the concelement of darkness get dispelled by Invisibility Purge still leaving the darkness, how can you take away the bit of darkness that hides you but leave the darkness still there isn't it the lack of light that makes it hard to hit ya? Shouldn't the counters for darkness be getting rid of it or light?

On a similar note why are the divine abilities strippable? They are not spell like abilities they are feats that use your turn ability....which also cannot be dispelled. Can't dispel blinding speed, can't dispel knockdown, or improved unarmed strike. So what's up with that?

On a related note: Make Dragons kd immune. It's just damn silly that a human can kd a dragon. Any dragon... Especially one near a nexus. That one at least should get some discipline...

I had a low level Half-Giant monk that grappled a dragon in my last 3.5 PnP game ';) Dont ask why we fought a dragon . . . wasnt supposed to happen like that, something about threats and mockery the dragon didnt like. On a related note, I had a character killed by being squished by a dragon once . . . the moral of that story is dont steal dragon eggs!!!

Even though a dragon is a dragon, a level 40 player is practically a god... if we were going by PnP... of course that stuff is all messed up for persistent worlds. A pure level 40 fighter should be able to KD practically anything... and in NS4 that's almost true.
