Spider Climb and Jump
« on: April 17, 2010, 05:43:05 AM »
Normally, spider climb lets me climb surfaces with a 20' climb speed.

If I'm spider climbing a wall and try to Jump, what happens?  Normally, I'd have a -6 Jump for a 20' speed (climb), but if I have a 40' land speed, I have a +4 Jump.

Don't even need TO for this.  Any decent Hood build, especially one with Celerity, one-rounds [Azathoth, the most powerful greater deity from d20 Cthulu].
Does it bug anyone else that we've reached the point where characters who can obliterate a greater deity in one round are considered "decent?"

I'd say you take the penalty because you're currently using a 20' speed.

This should probably have been in "Ask a simple Question, get a simple answer". It's all cool, though.

You need to make a drunken master for that due to his mastery of improvised weapons.

I'm well aware about Up the Walls.  Sometimes, spider climb must suffice.

I gravitate toward -6 because of speed.

Up The Walls

I'm sure its not intended this way but it says you fall if you aren't stood on a horizontal surface at the end of it... the ceiling is horizontal

yes, this has been a running gag for a while now. sadly, most DMs don't let it work that way.

I figure your feet stay attached, but you slide down when you run out of momentum, hence the need for a level surface.

"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

Up The Walls
And also Sudden Leap, jump again while in midair.
Super useful given that the DC for 8 foot up is 32 but the DC to jump up twice is 4 foot is only 16 both times.

Tack on the maximum weight build with a warfored base and we'd have (Metal) Mario. Future build?
