Talk:Projectile Vomiting, Acid (3.5e Feat)

Stuff

Breath Weapon + Venom Sphere/Finger of Death = better than this. --Mock Turtle 16:29, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, but the game has multiple levels of balance (or rather, we as players have subdivided it into multiple levels) for a reason. Phenomenal cosmic power is not appropriate for every game. -- Jota 16:50, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Glad someone else noticed the Breath Weapon + Finger of Death combo, though. --Genowhirl 18:55, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

What if a dragon takes this feat?

Dragon bile is a contact poison. If I get attacked by a dragon using this feat, do I take acid damage and have to save against Constitution damage? DaTedinator 16:48, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Because this is a ranged touch attack, it isn't usable through a bite attack as far as I know. And I also believe that since this is a Fiend feat, you have to qualify as a Fiend to get it, which in my mind would be being an outsider or a warlock. - TG Cid 17:19, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

I honestly didn't know about the dragon bile. I'd just say...no, digestive juices are different from actual bile, from the liver.--Genowhirl 18:55, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

Either an Evil-aligned Outsider or Elemental, OR from a Lower Plane (example: Pyroclastic Dragon) OR has the Product of Infernal Dalliance feat. Not that it matters, since Geno's right that bile != stomach acid. Quantumboost 23:14, January 22, 2010 (UTC)

A normal dragon might still qualify for this if it takes the Disciple of Ashlardon prestige class? Dragonexx

You wouldn't get it just by virtue of being a disciple of Ashardalon; you would have to go all the way to level 12 in Disciple of Ashardalon (since that's when you actually get the outsider type courtesy of the fiendish perfection class feature) in order to take the feat through those means. It's far, far easier just to have a dragon that takes Product of Infernal Dalliance as a feat. - TG Cid 21:14, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

action?

what kind of action does this take? standard like a breath weapon? --NameViolation 03:46, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Yes. Except it can be done every round if you *really* want to. --Genowhirl 04:01, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

shouldn't it mention that somewhere in the description? --NameViolation 08:02, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, it really should. Sorry about that! --Genowhirl 15:34, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

I believe it says somewhere that when an action is not specifically given in the ability description, it should be assumed to be a standard action. And since this is a ranged touch attack (and touch attacks are usually standard actions), calling this a breath weapon or inferring that there is any similarity may be more confusing than helpful. It already says that it's a ranged touch that's usable at will, so I don't really see what the problem is. - TG Cid 15:38, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

"I believe it says somewhere" is the point of why I brought it up. its simple enough to include "as a standard action" to keep people from making mistakes as opposed to making people guess or look up rule from ???. it may be a touch overboard, but it keeps questions like this from being asked--NameViolation 16:12, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
