Rules Questions


Hey guys,

planning my Barbarian build I had a q about cyberfiber Muscles.

I am planning to get the Belt of giant strength to get the +2 on my STR. Would buying cyberfiber muscle stack with it or not?

Since they are not in the same slot (belt and body) I hope they do stack, but lately i noticed it often doesn't play out that way.


They are both enhancement Bonuses to Strength, they don't stack


We house rule they do, but as the rules stand, no stacking :/


Thanks, well I'll prob go for the Cyber muscles then, since that will leave my Belt slot free for the Belt of stoneskin.


Yeah, both are enhacements bonus. In fact all the technology ability upgrades are enhancement bonuses and none will stack with the respective belts or headbands.

This is on purpose. They don't intend for you to have access to even higher stats. It was to allow you to use technology instead of magic to enhance your character.

It has the side benefit of not turning off in an Antimagic field also.

Of course, now they also added an AntiTech field to counter it, but hey. At least there are options.


Yeah it would have been fun to stack but this works too. At least you get an option to slot a ability modifier in a body slot.
