Rapid shot

take careful aim at a group of enemies before unleashing a succession of arrows.

At-Will • Martial

Standard Action Personal

Effect: You make a ranged basic attack with a weapon against each creature in or adjacent

to a square within the attack's range. You take a -2 penalty to the attack rolls.


Ranger at will without a level which can be accessed via Archery mastery feat - (to swap ranger at will for essentials ranger at will) - nice combo


Now a magic missle is a ranged basic attacked - with implement keyword. Now i read on this forum that a hybrid could use magic missile with rapid shot (ranger wiz hybrid  with archery mastery feat good so far) - - -its the with a weapon part of rapid shot - that i will have to convince my DM with.

What is the ruling  can magic missle be used with rapid shot although it is delivered without a weapon?  


Edit: Weaponlement - now why didnt i think of that - nice

You are adjacent to your own square. If a creature enters or leaves your square without shifting, that does provoke OAs ...

That is said nowhere in the rules and has been suggested for errata. First came up because of Pixies, so it is an oversight that hasn't mattered for 4+ years.

It's also said nowhere in the rules that you're adjacent to any squares, ever.

I need two clarifications concerning Dominated effect :

1) It is the dominator who choosed the action done by the dominated. What if the dominator dies and that the domination power is normally continuing till ST is successful ?  Does it stop at the death of the dominator or still ongoing? And if it is ongoing, does the GM still can choose what does the dominated or the dominated just "lost" his round as dominator is not there anymore to give him order?

Conditions last as long as the effect states it does.

A dominated (save ends) creature is dominated until that creatures suceeds with a saving throw. If the creature dominating another creature dies before the dominated creature's next turn, the dominated creature would basically lose a turn. A case could be made for still being controlled via prioor control to continue with a course of action .. that is, still choose what the dominated creature would do.

That said, a DM can rule the dominated condition wears off at the death of the dominating creature, if they choose. Not RAW, however.

2) If a Warmaster is dominated, is it possible for to make him a "good" use "Direct strike" ? If the dominated warmaster is asking another player to act via Direct Strike (to hit an ally), does the character have to do it? I would say no as the other player is not dominated.
Then could the warmaster can use his Direct strike for an ennemy. So a monster could use his basic attack ?

If a dominated creature with Direct the Strike was compelled to use it by the dominating creatuyre, the power still functions as written.

However, a dominated creature's allies are still its allies, and its enemies are still its enemies. The warlord's ally would still only be able to attack an enemy of the warlord ... which would usually be the dominator's ally. (This could be useful in corner cases where the death of an allied creature somehow benefits the dominator.)

Further caveat, per RC page 106, When a power defines a terget as an ally, the ally is freeto ignore the power's effects. So, the target of a domination compelled Direct the Striek could ignore it.
