    If you start you turn with limited actions, then cause the initiating effect to go away, do you get the rest of your actions?

    Example #1:
    I think the situation Aura is in is a bit different, but hers is that she started her turn immobilized (save ends I believe). If the trap is disabled, is she still immobilized?

    Example #2:
    If a PC starts their turn dazed, then uses a power to negate the dazed condition, do they get their Minor/Move actions?



    Dazed
    While a creature is dazed, it doesn’t get its normal complement of actions on its turn; it can take either a standard, a move, or a minor action. The creature can still take free actions, but it can’t take immediate or opportunity actions. It also grants combat advantage and can’t flank.

    If you're no longer dazed midpoint in your turn can you take the actions that were denied?

    So, like all things, I think it depends.
    There is one class I can think of where they receive a Save at the start of their turn. Assuming the condition is one that a Save can alleviate, then I would say in this case, the PC would then receive thier full compliment of actions.

    In the case of the trap, if it is the trap that is causing immobilization, and then, through the character's initial action the trap is negated, then the PC would no longer be immobilized and could then move.

    Did I answer the question?

    I wasn't sure if that's the case or not.

    In the case of the trap...
    If the trap is Immobilize (save ends), does it matter if the trap is disarmed?

    If a monster used a power and Immobilized (save ends) a PC, then the monster is killed. Is the PC still Immobilized? I believe so...

    I think it's the same thing.


    As for the other example...
    Yes, if the PC can save at the start of their turn, then I don't think there's an issue and they get all of their actions.

    What if they're dazed at the start of their turn, then use their standard action to use a power that either grants a new save or removes the condition out right.

    Can they now use their Move/Minor actions?

    I'd think so. By the rules, it's still the PC's turn undazed, having only taken a standard action. Some class features let you save at the begining of the turn too I think, same thing imo. Also, it fit the flavor of the shadowy claws...

    I'd say it'd be flavor dependant. Typically though we go with the rules as spell effects when applicable, but if the power is animated vines entangling you and you kill the plant creature, I'm going to say the vines fall to the floor as it dies. If it's a Vampire that put a mind zap on you, you're still mind zapped until you break it's hold even if he's dust. In this case with shadowy claws, they'd become 'normal', non-physical world affecting shadows again freeing Aura.
