As i can read...

Cavalier Add +1/4 to the cavalier's bonus on damage against targets of his challenge.

If you are a 12lv cavalier means that your damage against an callenged enemy could be...

Imagine a +3 longsword and STR 18
1d8+3+4+36(12*3)

three times your challenge at 12 level? really?


I am no native Speaker, so I may be wrong. But you only add +3 to your damage on Level 12. That's all. Your calculation sounds more like an intentional misinterpretation. ;-)

Scarab Sages

Yeah you add .25 points of damage per level. So you get an extra point of damage every four levels for 3 at 12th.

That have more sense than i believe hehehehehe

Thank you very much.


Wait, you are considered 1/4 level higher for ALL effects related to the Challenge class feature. This in my opinion includes bonus to challenge given by your order.
So for example an order of the cockatrice aasimar cavalier at level 16 you would get +4 level on challenge and have thus +5 to hit and +20 to damage exacly as if it had 20 levels.

No, the Aasimar bonus is specifically:

Quote:
Cavalier: Add +1/4 to the cavalier's bonus on damage against targets of his challenge.

So, an Aasimar Cavalier adds 1 point of damage (per 4 times he selects this bonus) on his damage rolls against targets of his challenge.

It says nothing about being considered higher level for effects that relate to the challenge class feature. And definitely has nothing to do with your order bonus. Where are you getting this from?


It's amazing what people try to read into the rules.

I think people would be much better off if they just started with the most limited interpretation of the rules rather than the most permissive. Better to think something does too little than too much.


Ops i dia a meshup of the cavalier and the oracle favored bonus. That's what you get when you post without cecking the sources.
