OK, so, Nargrym's Steel Hand, how would you guys rule this part of the Artifact in question - "However, whenever the wearer of the hand is within line of sight of a creature with the giant subtype, he must succeed at DC 15 Will save or be compelled to attack the giant, as suggestion."

Currently we're playing it as, when Giant's are seen, the player rolls a will save vs every giant and has to attack any of the ones he failed his will save against. Simple enough... but, last week, the player said, "Once I attack the giant once, the 'suggestion' has been satisfied." and I replied, "But then wouldn't you have to then move on to the next target you failed on, provoking attacks of opportunity?"

But now, reading it again, is there a limit to this effect? In other words, as long as you are within LOS of a giant, do you constantly have to save over and over again? Or once you save, you no longer have to save again? (in which case, for how long?) His will save is pretty low, and I think this thing is going to get him killed soon. I see no way to prevent it either...

Also, how much leeway is there with "attack the giant" as a suggestion? Full move until you reach the target? Allow single move and buff with an item, spell, etc?
