Talk:Warding Shell (3.5e Spell)

"even SR:No spells that would pass through an antimagic field would be stopped by the barrier as if it hit a solid wall" I think you should re-read antimagic field... SR:No spells don't pass through it. :p


 * Actually that is a (little known) but accurate effect of the rules. Antimagic fields suppress, but they don't actually block line of effect.  What happens is that the magic enters, blinks out, and if it makes it to the other side it blinks back in.  Think of it as a magic-plane-shifty-field if you will.  And for SR: No, they don't even blink out since they're actually "things", typically objects created by magic with real presence. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 03:26, 12 October 2013 (UTC)


 * some of them maybe. but that's not always true. Orb of Force. its SR: No but even if the spell claims it is conjuration creation... it can not possibly be anything but a magical effect... which antimagic field would cause to blink out... then again the orb spells were poorly thought out in the first place...(I don't think any of them except maybe orb of acid are conj creation.)


 * It doesn't make too much sense but, yes, apparently Orb of Force is a "real object" of force. Its hard to imagine because 'force' is a fictional substance.  If it helps, think of it as a water balloon of unusually explosive water, that's what orb of force is.  Yeah, the orb spells smack of evocation, but by the rules they're not.  Oh WotC... -- Eiji-kun (talk) 04:53, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
