Additionally, the caster needs to concentrate on the spell for one round. This means that the caster must focus their attention on the spell for a full round in order to successfully cancel it.Rate this question:

Which of the following statements are false
- A.
A spell which affects multiple targets can be held until spell can be applied to all targets, even over multiple rounds.
- B.
A spell which affects multiple targets is only effective for one round.
- C.
Spell Mastery can augment specific spell properties.
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
B. A spell which affects multiple targets is only effective for one round.Explanation
A spell which affects multiple targets can be held until spell can be applied to all targets, even over multiple rounds. This means that the spell can be cast and its effects can be delayed until it can be applied to all the intended targets, even if it takes multiple rounds to do so. This allows for strategic planning and timing in order to maximize the effectiveness of the spell. On the other hand, the statement "A spell which affects multiple targets is only effective for one round" is false. It implies that the spell's effects only last for one round, which is not true as the effects can be ongoing or have a lasting duration.Rate this question:

Which of the following statements are true
- A.
A haste spell can allow up to 6 actions in a single round.
- B.
A haste spell can give you 200% for a single action.
- C.
A haste spell gives you double damage during a melee.
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
D. None of the above.Explanation
A haste spell does not allow up to 6 actions in a single round. It typically grants an additional action or increases the speed of actions, but the exact number of actions depends on the specific game or system being used. A haste spell also does not give 200% for a single action; it may increase the speed or effectiveness of actions, but not to that extent. Additionally, a haste spell does not necessarily give double damage during a melee; it may enhance attack speed or accuracy, but the damage dealt is not automatically doubled. Therefore, none of the statements are true.Rate this question:

The "1D100 Open ended" means that the result of the roll can be higher than 100 if the player rolls a natural 96-00.

- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
B. A spell casting Static maneuver is a part of the spell casting action and a second roll is not made to actually cast the spell.Explanation

This means that when a character attempts to cast a spell, they only need to make one roll, the spell casting Static maneuver, in order to determine the success or failure of the spell. There is no need for a separate roll to actually cast the spell once the maneuver is successful.Rate this question:
