you fence? I practice ShuriKendo. I am trained in the staff, the Garotte (effictively the dagger as well), The Short sword, The bastard sword, and am in the midst of learning everything else. back on topic... is this all right? I had a human male, adopted by a dwarf, raised as a dwarf, who had twins. thunder twins. one was a druid, the other a fighter. i made human thundertwins. is that fair? FYI i am DM and play them both.

Tell them if they want realistic to go and play RD&D

I mostly train in the martial arts, but we do some weapons combat there....mostly with the staff and Katana.

Hey, I found what I think is a grey area that may play a part in a campaign I'm running: healing spells on constructs. Do they or do they not work?

reality_deviant · 08-03-2004, 07:23 PM

Constructs are typically only healed with specific types of spells, for instance, I believe some are healed by shocking damage, like from a lightning bolt. It varies from golem to golem.

In Eberron, there are "Repair" spells that will ONLY heal constructs, like the Warforged. They have the same progression as the "Cure" spells do.

Also, there's this stone horse wondrous item that can heal when it eats gemstones.

When in doubt, make something up.

There's a Repair and Inflict series for artificers, IIRC.

And RD, I think artificers are meant for party support, due to their selection of spells being mostly "buff" types. Have you seen anyone play an artificer as an effective ranged attacker? I want to recreate HK-47 when I *do* get Eberron...

I'm not sure.....but I think some constructs can also be healed via physical repair and Mending spells......though I'm not sure if this is true or not.

AndyBloodredMage · 08-04-2004, 05:41 PM

This is true.

Dragonsbane · 08-04-2004, 09:02 PM

oh, for which constructs?

AndyBloodredMage · 08-04-2004, 10:32 PM

I'm almost positive all constructs can be healed via the repair spells found in Tome 'n' Blood. Mending, however, I'm not sure of.
