Persistent Spell Metamagic

Benefit: Whenever a creature targeted by a persistent spell or within its area succeeds on its saving throw against the spell, it must make another saving throw against the effect. If a creature fails this second saving throw, it suffers the full effects of the spell, as if it had failed its first saving throw. A persistent spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell's actual level.

Spells that do not require a saving throw to resist or lessen the spell's effect do not benefit from this feat

Does the Persistent Spell Metamagic persist for the entirety of a spell's duration, in the case of spells that allow for a save per round (to remove an ongoing effect) after failing the initial save?

For example, an enemy who fails the initial save of Glitterdust is blind (or paralyzed if Hold Person). Would their save at their next round to remove blindness/paralysis also be made twice (taking lower) or just once?

Where: Roll20 + G+ Hangout
Who: PCs can be anywhere between levels 1 and 5, sub-tiers 1-2, and 4-5.
What: A veteran Pathfinder exploring the Fenwall Mountains of Varisia has begun sleepwalking, traveling through the dead of night in the same direction each time. The following mornings, however, he awakens injured and lost in the wilderness, never reaching the mysterious destination that drew him from his bed in the night. Something is calling Kalkamedes, something powerful, but unless he can make it safely to the source of his somnambulism, that power will remain a mystery. It falls to a team of Pathfinders to escort the sleepwalker to his destination and uncover the true nature of the strange phenomenon overtaking Kalkamedes's dreams.

Celebrate the New Year by playing your new PCs!

When: Thursday, January 1st, 2014 @ 12pm EST
Where: Roll20 + G+ Hangout
Who: This is a scenario for Level 1 characters (repeatable) or Level 2 characters (playable once)
What: The ruined siege castles outside Absalom have long beckoned adventurers looking to make a name for themselves. Now an earthquake has cracked open one of these fabled ruins, and its lost mysteries and fantastic treasures lie exposed for the first time in centuries. But the tower's empty halls once more echo with living footfalls, and a new master has claimed the Fallen Fortress as his own. Can the PCs find a way to get inside its shattered walls? What ancient dangers and fresh threats will they encounter inside its crumbling chambers? And will the PCs be able to defeat the current Master of the Fallen Fortress?

Who: PCs can be anywhere between levels 1 and 5, sub-tiers 1-2, and 4-5.
What: While many Pathfinders meet unfortunate fates in their ongoing explorations of the dangerous world of Golarion, some retire with decades' worth of treasure in their coffers, and their lives still intact. When one such Pathfinder approaches the Grand Lodge with the hidden location of her treasure vault, it falls upon a new generation of Pathfinders to retrieve from within a valuable keepsake. That they can keep anything other than the ex-Pathfinder's locket makes the assignment all the sweeter.

Do you need to have a +1 longbow before you can add the adaptive quality to it, or can you upgrade it directly from a masterwork longbow?

e.g. 100 gp (Longbow) + 300 (Masterwork) + 1000 (Adaptive) = 1400 gp

or

100 gp (Longbow) + 300 (Masterwork) + +1 (2000) + 1000 (Adaptive) = 3400 gp

Or for that matter, could you even have an Adaptive Longbow without it being masterworked?

Can someone confirm if the calculation of my crit damage (and regular attack damage) is correct?

Info:

Human 2H Fighter-Rogue
18 Str (4 modifier)
Wielding +1 Masterwork Greatsword
Power Attack Feat
Backstabber Trait
Sneak Attack

So regular damage accounting for all those factors would be:

2d6 (Greatsword)
+6 (Plus 1.5x Str mod for wielding 2H weapon)
+1 (+1 Enhancement Bonus)
+3 (Power Attack: 2+50% for wielding 2H weapon)
+1 (Flanking damage bonus from Backstabber)
+ 1d6 (Sneak Attack)

and a Critical Hit if confirmed, would be:

4d6 (Greatsword)
+12 (Plus 1.5x Str mod)
+2 (Enhancement Bonus)
+6 (Power Attack: 2+50% for wielding 2H weapon)
+2 (Flanking damage bonus from Backstabber)
+ 1d6 (Sneak Attack)

Thanks in advance!
