-The rope can enwrap only a creature or an object within 1 foot of it – it does not snake outward – so it must be thrown near the intended target. Doing so requires a successful ranged touch attack roll (range increment 10 feet). A typical 1-inch-diameter hemp rope has 2 hit points, AC 10, and requires a DC 23 Strength check to burst it. The rope does not deal damage, but it can be used as a trip line or to cause a single opponent that fails a Reflex saving throw to become entangled. A creature capable of spellcasting that is bound by this spell must make a concentration check with a DC of 15 + your Caster Level to cast any spells. An entangled creature can slip free with a DC 20 + (Your CL) Escape Artist check.+The rope can enwrap only a creature or an object within 1 foot of it – it does not snake outward – so it must be thrown near the intended target.
