Nightmare, Cauchemar, page 216
The CMD entry reports: "(+2 vs. trip)"; but it should rather read "(42 vs. trip)".
On a second note, is it alright that the Cauchemar, a larger version of the Nightmare, has its bite and hooves' damage upgraded to 2d6 when the Nightmare had 1d4 for bite and 1d6 for hooves?
I mean, is it intended or is it an error?

As I remember, ACP were missed for all skills in the Ogre Mage.
There are no Str-based or Dex-based listed in its Skills entry, other than Fly, so...

Pegasus, page 225
Sense Motive is not a class skill for magical beasts, so the Pegasus' total Sense Motive bonus is +4, not +7 (doing the math, its ranks are spent in the other listed skills).

Phoenix, page 227
Dunno which of the listed languages are base ones and which are bonus ones, but the Phoenix has a +6 Int modifier, so the Languages entry is missing at least three more tongues.
_____________________________________________
Pixie, page 228
1) Similar as for the Phoenix: the Pixie has two listed languages and a +3 Int modifier, so it should speak a minimum of 4 tongues (1 base +3 for Int).
2) Listed damage for the Pixie's longbow says 1d6-2/x3, but that -2 shouldn't be there; the bow is not composite.
3) Minor omission: the Treasure entry is missing "(short sword, long bow with 20 arrows, other treasure)".

I checked elsewhere in this thread, but I couldn't find this noted anywhere else. It appears that the Adult (and older) Blue Dragon has Deadly Stroke as a feat, but lacks the prerequisite Greater Weapon Focus (presumably for its bite attack). It does seem to have the correct number of feats for its hit dice, though, so this doesn't seem to be a simple omission. In addition, the attack bonus for its bite obviously doesn't include the bonus from Greater Weapon Focus.
On the other hand, Greater Weapon Focus has its own prerequisites (namely 8th-level fighter) that the dragon doesn't qualify for, so just swapping it for another feat isn't exactly kosher either. Thoughts?

I concour. I'd replace it with Power Attack.
And maybe someone would then like to replace also Dazzling Display and Shatter Defenses with Cleave and Great Cleave.JoelF847 RPG Superstar 2008 Top 32, 2011 Top 16 |

You apply strength penalties with any bow, it doesn't matter if it's composite or not. Only composite bows can get the benefits of a strength bonus though. See p. 147-148 in the core rulebook.

Thanks for your input, Astral Wanderer. Power Attack seems like a good idea, seeing as Blues are the only true dragons without it. But I don't mind Dazzling Display and Shatter Defenses so much. First, there aren't any prerequisite problems with them, and second, they add some variety. All the other chromatics (and I think the metallics for that matter) go either the Cleave or Vital Strike route (except the Reds, which try to do both). That was part of the reason I went with Blue in the first place. Thanks again for your help!

Wow this thread is old so I hope chopswil sees this. Anyway, the Acrobatics skill states:
"Creatures with a base land speed above 30 feet receive a +4 racial bonus on Acrobatics checks made to jump for every 10 feet of their speed above 30 feet. Creatures with a base land speed below 30 feet receive a –4 racial bonus on Acrobatics checks made to jump for every 10 feet of their speed below 30 feet."
This creature has a base speed of 60 feet.
60-30=30
30/10=3
3 x 4=12
10+12=22
Looks fine to me!
Also I realize this is probably a lesser known rule about the Acrobatics skill, so I just know there are some dwarf, gnome, and halfling PCs out there who've been jumping paragons of their race ;).

You're very welcome!
Also I have a possible theory as to why the Bestiary's monsters keep leaving out their Dodge feat bonus from their CMDs. We've heard time and time again from the developers that not all of the last minute changes to the core rules made it into the Bestiary. Remember what the Dodge feat did in 3.5? You had to select a target to have the bonus applied against. Since that's situational, I have a feeling it was left out because of that.

Also I have a possible theory as to why the Bestiary's monsters keep leaving out their Dodge feat bonus from their CMDs.
I think it's because they use the short cut CMD calculation, which now escapes me, where they take the CMB add something to it to get CMD instead of using the "long" calculation.

This one's weird for me. At first I thought the +12 for being Diminutive was wrong because I thought since swarms take up a 10x10 square like a Large creature, they maybe get treated like a Large creature and have a -4 to Stealth instead, but the AC bonus is for a Diminutive creature, so we're back to where we started :-\

I didn't see it anywhere in the thread, but I noticed the Oread on page 205 has a speed of 20 feet and wondered if it should be 30. The "Oread as a character" doesn't mentioned anything about a base speed reduction. Also, the Oread Fighter in the statblock is wearing leather armor and carrying ~25 lb of gear, so it doesn't look like an encumbrance or armor issue.

That's probably an error, but this is a thread for the Bestiary and the Oread is in Bestiary 2.

Tarrasque p.262, inconsistent verbiage
one of the two statements has an incorrect bonus for jumping
Skills Acrobatics +3 (+43 when jumping),
Rush (Ex) Once per minute for 1 round, the tarrasque can
move at a speed of 150 feet. This increases its Acrobatics
bonus on checks made to jump to +87.
This one can be explained away using that jump rule in acrobatics.
Acrobatics +3 (+43 when jumping)
The tarrasque has the special quality Powerful Leaper which says a tarrasque uses its Strength modifier for Acrobatics checks involving jumping. The ability also says a tarrasque has a +24 racial bonus on Acrobatics checks made to jump.
+43 = 15 (Str mod) + 24 (racial mod) + 4 (speed 40 feet)
That Rush special ability lets him increase it to +87 ONLY when it's activated.

Specifically the problem lies in the Acrobatics skill. With 11 ranks, this result is impossible since the creature's only got 9 HD.

You don't actually add in the +6 racial bonus because that's specifically for wooden objects. If anything, the actual entry should be changed as follows:

my program tries to make the "numbers work" as written, if it can't it stops.
in this case it couldn't make it be +11 legally so it stopped with what it had; which is what you seei usually try to add some text to explain to situation, which Drakir2010 added in this case.

Fly skill bonus is +21, but should be +26 (+10 ranks +5 Dex +3 class skill +4 maneuverability -2 size +6 [1/2 caster level for the constant Fly spell-like ability]).
Even if the 1/2 caster level bonus wasn't to be considered (but I don't see why not), it would be +20, not +21.
interesting, creatures that use a fly spell don't get a entry in the speed section for fly even though they have the Fly skill.
A fly speed seems to denote a nature flying ability.
Here there is the constant fly Spell-Like Ability and there is an entry in speed for fly.The fly spell says, "The subject gains a bonus on Fly skill checks equal to 1/2 your caster level."
So, if a monster that has a natural fly ability and someone casts fly on the creature. Does it get a bonus now from the fly spell on its Fly skill?
I would say no.
but the Bone Devil (Osyluth) seems to say differently.Edit: The Achaierai and Thulgant from Bestiary 2 have fly as a Spell-Like Ability but no fly in their speed section (it's not constant also).
I've been trying to wrap my head around this issue. While a fly spell grants a bonus, I have to argue whether or not it's considered a "natural" flying ability. Even if its constant via a spell-like ability, is it still "natural?" I ask for two reasons. The first is do creatures with this constant spell-like ability get to treat Fly as a class skill? The second is this part of the Fly skill:
"A creature with a natural fly speed receives a bonus (or penalty) on Fly skill checks depending on its maneuverability: Clumsy –8, Poor –4, Average +0, Good +4, Perfect +8."
This means that recipients of a fly spell wouldn't get the maneuverability bonus, which makes me wonder if creatures with constant spell-like effects of the fly spell do either.
Let's take a two creatures (other than the bone devil, which we've discussed is wonky) from the Bestiary that have a constant Fly spell-like ability. Each of these creatures seem to use different, conflicting rules:
Gelugon (Ice Devil)
Fly +13= 5(Dex) - 2(size) + 4(maneuverability) + 6(1/2 caster level).
This creature utilizes the bonuses from maneuverability AND caster level.
Neothelid
Fly -4= 4 (maneuverability) - 6(size) - 2 (Dex)
The only way this creature's Fly skill as written works is if you DO NOT add in the bonus from 1/2 caster level (which would add a whopping +10, bringing the total to +6). The equation above leaves this bonus out.
Argh headache.

Drow, page 114
Errata 1.0 said to change the listed +3 attack bonus fo rapier to +2, but +3 is actually correct: +1 base attack bonus, +2 Dex (Weapon Finesse).
Also, the listed Stealth bonus is +2 and should be +3 (1 rank +2 Dex; the other rank spent on Perception adds to the -1 Wis and +2 racial to reach the already listed Perception +2).
Last, can NPC classes be favored classes? If yes, the Drow would have 1 additional skill point.
Drow Noble, page 115
Same as above for the masterwork rapier attack bonus: errata says +4, but the original +6 is correct; +2 base attack bonus, +3 Dex (Weapon Finesse), +1 masterwork weapon.
Incorrect, actually.
The Weapon Finesse feat states:
"If you carry a shield, its armor check penalty applies to your attack rolls."
The Drow's light shield would knock it a point down whereas the Drow Noble's heavy shield would knock 2 off the attack roll, so yes, the Errata is correct.
Also with regards to the NPC favored class question, yes, NPC classes can count for favored class bonuses. It should be mentioned, however, that almost all of the creatures in the Bestiary that should receive a favored class bonus are actually missing one.

Giant Moray Eel, page 119
The moray eel's second bite attack is listed as dealing 1d6+4 points of damage. I suppose it should be +3 (which is half its Str bonus) or maybe +6 (its actual Str bonus).
Because the bite is the eel's only means of attack, it adds 1-1/2 its strength bonus, which is why it's normal attack is at a +9 to damage. The secondary set of jaws probably reads from half this value, which when rounded down, is +4. This doesn't follow the normal rules for primary and secondary attacks because this is kind of a special ability of the moray that isn't used as a normal attack.
My guess anyway.

Dunno about this one; I mean, the only written rule I can find about it is indeed that the DC is equal to 10 + spell level + Charisma modifier, but it is not clear if that rule is missing a part and thus whether:
1) That rule and only that must be applied, in which case, the Svirfneblin's Blindness/Deafness is DC 11.
2) A negative Charisma modifier should not be applied, in which case the listed DC 12 is correct.
3) As for magic items, the minimum DC of a spell-like ability cannot go below 10 + spell level + minimum Charisma score to cast that spell, despite what the real Charisma score of the creature might be, in which case DC would be 13 (minimum Cha to cast a 2nd level spell is 12, thus a +1 modifier).This would need an official reply.
A couple other explanations as to why this was printed are:
1) They may have mistakenly added the +1 to DC of illusion spells even though this is a necromancy spell.
2) They may have mistakenly used the wrong ability score, forgetting momentarily to use the Cha modifier due to the fact that this creature is a 1st level Ranger and thus uses Wisdom to cast spells (which has a score of 10).

Spectre, page 256
I'm wondering why does the Spectre have ranks in Survival. The only use I can see for it is the weather forecast because IF it benefits from clouds covering Sun, then knowing in advance when weather will be favorable is useful.
In other words, does a Spectre's weakness to sunlight (and other Sun-weak monsters' too) apply only if it struck by solar rays, or could the Spectre get around it if the sky is cloudy and/or it is in the shadow of something (a building, a creature, trees, and so on), which would be a little odd?
Thence, why the Survival skill for an undead and also incorporeal creature?
_____________________________________________
The Weapon Finesse feat states:
"If you carry a shield, its armor check penalty applies to your attack rolls."
Right, thanks.
This doesn't follow the normal rules for primary and secondary attacks because this is kind of a special ability of the moray that isn't used as a normal attack.
That's why I'm more prone to think it's an error (where, since the base bite damage dice are halved from 2d6 to 1d6, Strength is also treated as per a secondary attack and thus halved or, at best, it is applied entirely, but hardly at 1-1/2 times), rather than an obscure calculation.

My personal suggestion:
Svirfneblin takes +1 skill point, assigned to Climb (for a total of Climb +5).
Tengu takes +1 skill point, assigned to Sleight of Hand (for a total of Sleight of Hand +7).
Tiefling takes +1 skill point, assigned to Disguise (for a total of Disguise +2).
Also, the Tiefling's Disable Device bonus is lacking the +1 from the Trapfinding class feature, which brings it from the listed +6 to +7.

Only Stone Giants have iterative rock attacks listed in their stat block despite the fact that all other giants too have base attack bonuses higher than +6.
I can't find any rule saying that only Stone Giants get iterative attacks for rock throwing (or better, I don't see any rule saiying than other Giants should not get them), so the entries should read as follow:...
Actually given that the majority of the giants don't have these iterative attacks and that the format example listed for rock throwing doesn't have this example, my guess would be it's the stone giant that's in error. Although after having read that I looked in Bestiary 2 and it seems all the creatures in that book with this ability don't have uniformity. Some have iterative rock throws, others don't.
HOWEVER!
There's actually one other error with these giants regarding this ability.
1) Rock throwing also states:
"Damage from a thrown rock is generally twice the creature's base slam damage plus 1-1/2 its Strength bonus."
All of the creatures in this book with this ability only have their base slam damage factored in at x1 for thrown rocks. They do correctly have 1-1/2 their Strength bonus, just not double their slam damage. This includes the giants you've mentioned here as well as...

Actually I have a question about the bonus language part of this post. How does acquiring bonus languages work? Obviously ranks in linguistics grants you languages, as does your basic starting languages and your Int score at 1st level, but what about these:
1) When your Int goes up because you put ability points in it at 4th, 8th, 12th level and so on, are you granted a language from a Int bonus increase?

There was a debate about Vampire's skills at page 5 of this thread. In regards of how it "ended", I'd say it's far more reasonable (and also becomes easier) to think these two things (because the second one is an easy thing to forget about, and together with the first, it solves everything):
1) That the Vampire retains its "Skilled" Human racial trait (as it retains all other racial traits) and has a total number of ranks equal to (2 class, +2 Int, +1 Human, +1 favored class) * 8 = 48.
2) That the skill bonuses reported in the stat-block is simply missing the +3 to Knowledge (Religion) due to the Undead Bloodline making of that skill a class skill.

Personally, I think that among the five skills you mentioned initially, Knowledge (nature) is the one a little less theme-appropriate and thus the one not to consider a class skill to make the math go totally alright.
Finally, by my calculations, a 20th level cleric with a 27 wisdom should have 4/6/6/6/6/5/5/5/5/4 spells per day. Bestiary+Errata give Solars 4/7/7/7/7/6/5/5/5/4. That's an extra spell at levels 1-5.
As far as I can see, I concur with this too.
1) When your Int goes up because you put ability points in it at 4th, 8th, 12th level and so on, are you granted a language from a Int bonus increase?
2) Does this lich gain a language from the Int increase provided by his headband of vast intellect +2?
3) Does this lich gain a language from the +2 to Int granted him by his acquired template of lich?
1) Yes, if your modifier goes up. Of course, if you're a PC in a given campaign you must spend some in-game time to learn it properly.
2) This one could be a good question, but personally I'd say no, as much as it doesn't grant true skill ranks.3) Yes. Everything that rises Int permanently and unchangeably (virtually speaking), makes a creature gain skill points and learn languages as appropriate.
