Question 1: The DC and damage for catching fire via the Burn extraordinary ability of a small fire elemental is amplified if it basses from one burning character to a second. Am I reading this right?

More Details:
A small fire elemental uses its Burn ability to deal fire damage to targets that it hits with its slams. The damage is 1d4. Victims of Burn must make a Reflex save of DC 11 or take an additional 1d4 each round. However, if another creature makes an attack against the burning creature using natural weapons or an unarmed strike, the attacker follows the catching on fire rules. Thus the Reflex save becomes DC 15 and the amount of damage eachround becomes 1d6. Am I reading this right?

Question 2: The rules for the Burn ability state that a creature making an attack against a burning creature using natural weapons or an unarmed strike, should follow the rules for catching on fire. However, what if a burning creature makes an attack against a non-burning one? For example, should I apply the catching on fire rules to a target that is attacked by a burning treant or wooden golem?


Hello!

I have a player that wants to fire into combat and forego the -4 penalty to avoid hitting his allies. That is, he'll take his chances and hope not to hit them. But *shrug* if an accident happens.

Is there a rule for this? Perhaps d100 to determine who gets hit if the shot is successful or something else?

Side note that any existing rule for this seems like it would be tough to manage because the ACs of allies and enemies are likely to be different, compounded by which targets, if any, get the +4 AC for cover.

Thanks in advance for your help!
