Campfire Wall + Hide Campsite


Rules Questions


Can Hide Campsite spell be used in conjunction with Campfire Wall to make hidden flaming barrier campsite?
Or is there some caveat I don't realize, like spells interfering with each other.


Since neither spell is an abjuration spell it should be fine.

If one abjuration spell is active within 10 feet of another for 24 hours or more, the magical fields interfere with each other and create barely visible energy fluctuations. The DC to find such spells with the Perception skill drops by 4.

Yea, thats the kind of thing I am talking about. This is probably least used rule in whole pathfinder XD

But it does come up. My character has a "pouch full of nodes of blasting" trap that has its Perception DC lowered by 4 because of that rule.


Your biggest problem with trying to use these two spells together is that Hide Campsite is a 20' cube area, while campfire wall has an area of 20' radius. So your giant ball of flame is outside of the area that is hidden.

I suppose there is a chance that someone would get past the campfire wall and then due to your hidden campsite see nothing and turn around and go home, but that seems like a pretty rare circumstance.

Or the old "you know what I prepared today" explosive runes trap of multiple runes on a wall.

Damn. You are right.

But that means that campfire wall is more roomy than I thought, so thats nice.
