Spells and Spring Attack


Rules Questions


Can my fighter/wizard who is carrying charges of Chill Touch use Spring Attack against a foe in place of a Melee Weapon attack?


Yes!
As a full-round action, you can move up to your speed and make a single melee attack without provoking any attacks of opportunity from the target of your attack.

Nothing in there about using a weapon, and a melee touch attack is still a melee attack.

Yes, just remember you have to be holding the charge.

So you have to cast it the round before you would want to spring attack.


If you have acrobatics or want to risk an AOO I think you can deliver it the same round you cast it...at any point in your movement,not in the form of a spring attack though. You'd have to wait until next round.


Also true and an interesting rule - touch attacks spells allow you to
cast - move up - and then make the attack roll.

Which suddenly makes those clerics with the harm spells that much more deadly.

Kaladore is right though - you can't use spring attack in the same round you cast Chill touch as Spring attack is a full round action.
