Hello all!

I'm playing a Conjurer in PFS and I'm trying to figure out the most efficient way to bust through Web spells, be they my own or our enemy's.

Now, the Web spell has this interesting tidbit of rules text:

Quote:
The strands of a web spell are flammable. A flaming weapon can slash them away as easily as a hand brushes away cobwebs. Any fire can set the webs alight and burn away one 5-foot square in 1 round. All creatures within flaming webs take 2d4 points of fire damage from the flames.

So I figure, hey, Fire Elementals are pretty much walking flaming weapons. Can a Fire Elemental just tunnel through a Web at full speed, leaving an open corridor? "As easy as a hand brushes away cobwebs" seems to indicate that they can. Or are they still hampered by Web? Some more Web rules:

Quote:
The entire area of the web is considered difficult terrain. Anyone moving through the webs must make a combat maneuver check or Escape Artist check as part of their move action, with a DC equal to the spell's DC. Creatures that fail lose their movement and become grappled in the first square of webbing that they enter.

  • Must Fire Elementals make this check?
  • If they don't have to make the check or if they succeed on the check, do they move at full speed or half speed? (The Difficult Terrain vanishes as they go.)
  • If they have to make the check and fail, I guess the square they get stuck on burns immediately, but they can't move any further?
