Intimidate and Fear Stacking


Rules Questions


7 people marked this as FAQ candidate. Answered in the errata.

In 3.5 demoralizing an opponent with intimidate could not worsen a subjects condition past shaken. Pathfinder seems to have omitted this line. Does that mean if the Necro-Sorc uses grave touch to make an enemy shaken, I can intimidate them to frightened?

Sub-Question: Fear stacking still works, right?

Dark Archive

No it does not, the developers have come out several times to this effect going back to 2009 and it has somehow evaded errata so far.

Honestly I would love to see a nice bit of text come down from the developers on how fear effects interact with each other, such as the intimidate skill and those from frightening presence and spells. For now... just FAQ it and hope it catches their eye.


Thanks!
