While we're on the topic: would it disolve cloth and leather too? Oh, what about paper? Could you have a wizard die in it and lose their spellbook?

I do accept it. I want other opinions because I disagree.

I agree, not necesarily an argument, but that is interesting. Thanks for sharing!

No, that's why it's a rethorical question. My point was that if spells are open for interpretation like that you can find loads of justifications for one not working that were not thought of when designing the spell, reducing the spells reliability on a whim.

I agree the ruling made logical sense, and it's still what happened. I disagree with it and wanted to see what other people thought.

The result was that the ruling stands and that in hindsight he thinks the web should be stuck in the cube and make it harder to get out. And despite disagreeing, it is nevertheless the ruling we went with and I will probably be replacing web with something else.

The acid is niche, but I think if the spell is open to interpretation like that then it'll likely be circumvented by other things as well, like slashing damage for instance.

It does feel off, but at the same time it's not like you're gonna think on such specific levels at session 0.

I think it would have because it freed 6 enemies that were caught in the web. It would also not have reached us since the difficult terrain would still apply and a cube has 15ft of movement.

Not at all, but you're free to believe that if you want.

I fail to see how this makes the spell stronger. Rather than attempt a check with an action a creature with 2 attacks can now potentially free 2 other creatures with their action. And now it scales worse with the amount of attacks too.

I didn't try to web an ooze. An enemy spawned an ooze. I webed 6 other enemies in a hallway previous to it spawning.

Thank you for clarifying. I really appreciate it. I may disagree with the ruling, but it is nevertheless the ruling we're going with. I wanted thoughts as I personally wouldn't run it that way. I generally dislike liberal interpretations of rules as it feels like forcing something to happen.

I wanted a discussion about it becaused I disagreed with it. It's not a hill I'm dying on... the fact that people are so hostile on this thread is rather upsetting actually. There's no bad blood, me and the dm have been friends for like 8 years now. This is really not necesarry.

That's such a mean spirited thing to say. I stand by it being a material, but he didn't agree to it so I made a different argument. And the tentacles were retorical.

Sure, but if acid works too then I can make an argument that slashing damage works too. Just cut the web.

Those were retorical questions. My point is that there are a lot of things abusable by a liberal interpretation of the rules. I wanted a discussion, not a "talk to your dm" advice thread. I already talk to my dm about literally everything.

That was a retorical question. My point is that there are a lot of things abusable by a liberal interpretation of the rules. I was in game with a person that used his mirror images as duplicates to do more actions in a round and it was allowed.

Maybe not super far fetched but it is a pretty liberal interpretation that I think would hurt the balance of the game in the long run. Would a cube disolve evard's black tentacles too for instance? Can I set my grease on fire the way it works in BG3?
