[Feature Request]Anti-magic zone condition

zoberon · December 9th, 2013, 04:06 PM

Is there currently a way to remove all magic abilities and bonuses from a character temporarily, to reflect entering and Anti-magic zone? These would be very useful, especially for high level characters with lots of magic and buffs.

Probably a huge chunk of work for the devs, but... Yeah, I'd love this.

Nothing currently to do this. Also yea its not something easy to do. Not impossible to disable all magic on a character but that would be allot of "interesting scripting.....

+1 on this.

Wow, we just got attacked by a monster with an antimagic ability (like the spell).

Yow, that was difficult. We're used to having Hero Lab take care of stuff like this.

Antimagic is such an interesting and fun ability it's just so hard to use in practice.

Thanks y'all.

Also +1.

I know that this would be a bear of a problem for the devs, but as was stated earlier - anti-magic is one of those things I think is an awesome challenge for higher level characters, but it is something that I, as a GM, shy away from, because it is such a pacing killer.

Having a single switch to turn off magic items and spells would be a fantastic aid to play in these cases.

It definitely would be a very nice option to have.

This is actually doable if my logic isnt too bad.
1) Check equipped gear and unequip if magical.
2) Loop over feats and abilities looking for any Su or Sp and do the same.

Would that logic work?
