Does protection form energy protect equipment

[McClintock]

Just what the tile says.

[jedipotter]

Yes.

But it's sort of vague. All ''protection spells'' also ''protect'' and worn and carried items, as ''Attended'' equipment is not ''normal'' any more.

So if a spell grants a character fire protection and it works, then, no equipment they carry will be effected.

But it's a little shady for like: if you cast ''fire immunity'' then can you toss a rope through a pillar of fire and climb across? Some DM's would say the role is protected. I'm one of the DM's that says the rope burns.

[Curmudgeon]

Most of the time, yes. However, you're still required to roll saving throws because of your equipment. On a rolled 1, some of your equipment gets damaged.
Items Surviving after a Saving Throw

Unless the descriptive text for the spell specifies otherwise, all items carried or worn by a creature are assumed to survive a magical attack. If a creature rolls a natural 1 on its saving throw against the effect, however, an exposed item is harmed (if the attack can harm objects). Refer to Table: Items Affected by Magical Attacks (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicOverview/spellDescriptions.htm#tableItemsAffectedbyMagicalA ttacks).

Yes, but not from spelling mistakes in the topic name :smallamused:
