well I know that it doesnt work against Invisibily and Dispalcement.

However, I am still not concealed but I would still get the 20% miss chance as to not knowing exactly where I would be when the attack is made because the spells effect grants me the effect of being concealed even though I am not being physically concealed.

I dont think that that is a pendantic reading since the 20% miss chance represents the difficulty of knowing where I am at at the time of the attack.


Quote:
True Strike never says certain concealment from certain sources get to avoid it so that means True Strike will matter unless otherwise stated.

You are right. True strike never states that.

Quote:
Additionally, you are not affected by the miss chance that applies to attackers trying to strike a concealed target

True Strike does state the above as per the spell. However, spells like blur and fog cloud give you the effect of being concealed without actually being concealed. It is an effect that is generated by the spell.

Think about it this way:

Bob and Joe are standing in a field. Joe has Gloves of True Strike. Bob casts Fog Cloud. Joe then attacks and rolls his miss chance.

Is Bob concealed? No. He is just granted the effect of concealment by a spell. He is not actually concealed. So the miss chance still applies.


I have been thinking on an issue that seems to be popping up more and more the more I research it. We have run accross this issue a few times at the gaming table, however, I would like to talk more about the issue when it comes down to spells. I think that some of my questions on this matter have been answered here: Reddit Thread

However, Does True Strike allow for the miss chance to happen from spells such as Fog Cloud, Blur, Displacement, or other simmalar spell/effects?
