I am unable to find anything pertaining to it, other than the usual "You can't attack a creature within 5ft. with a reach weapon", but I just wanted to be sure;

Is the Abnormal Reach ability something that prevents all (other than unarmed) weapons from being able to attack enemies within 5ft.?
And if so, what is the counter play when 5ft. step isn't and option?

As it says on the tin. I've been trying to look up the ruling for whether or not the save to avoid attacking your allies is a mind-affecting effect.
With archetypes like the Wild Rager, it specifies that it acts like the Confusion spell, which specifies Mind-affecting, but for Brute Vigilante, it doesn't specify it, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

On a separate note, if it is considered a Mind-affecting Effect, would the Steely Resolve vigilante talent allow me to try extra saves, or would it just buy me time to get away from my allies?

It will determine which trait I take too, as one is a +1 to Will saves, but little else that I want, while another is +1 to saves against Mind-affecting Effects and is a campaign trait, one of which I would need to take, but the bonus to Will saves and Mind-affecting doesn't stack, so I don't want to take both.

Just had a quick question, and I couldn't find it listed in the forums or anywhere else.
If you are a Kineticist, and you take the Expanded Defense utility wild talent for an element you got through Expanded Element, do they both stack at the same time, or do you have to choose one?

For example, if I were an Earth, or a Wood Kineticist, and took the other element and Expanded Defense, would I have both the DR from Earth, and the Natural Armor of Wood?

And from that, do the burn effects of both allow them to continue having the additional effects, or will those effects go away if I burn to put more in the other? Such as if I increased the natural armor using burn for the Flesh of Wood, but then started giving burn to give more DR from Flesh of Stone? Or would they stack as long as I take the burn?

I couldn't find this looking through other posts, and I'm worried that it's an obvious answer, but I'm not sure about it from how it's written in the books

Combat Style Feat (Ex)

At 2nd level, a ranger must select one combat style to pursue.

The ranger’s expertise manifests in the form of bonus feats at 2nd, 6th, 10th, 14th, and 18th level. He can choose feats from his selected combat style, even if he does not have the normal prerequisites.

The benefits of the ranger’s chosen style feats apply only when he wears light, medium, or no armor. He loses all benefits of his combat style feats when wearing heavy armor. Once a ranger selects a combat style, it cannot be changed.

"He can choose feats from his selected combat style" is a little vague to me.

Sorry if this seems like an obvious answer, I couldn't really find if it needs to be specified or not to be able to do it, and couldn't find a section that let this question be known if there is one.
Ninja's Pressure Points specifies:

Whenever the ninja deals sneak attack damage, she also deals 1 point of Strength or Dexterity damage, decided by the ninja.

I've been looking around on the forums for a while, and as far as I could see, the consensus is that this damage stacks. But is it possible for it to bring a stat to zero?

A bit of a newer GM here, but when reading over the stat block for a creature (Corpse Orgy), it has a reach of 10ft, but it also has the "plus grab" feature on its slams.
Would the creature be able to grapple them and keep them at 10ft? Would it auto pull them within 5ft?
If it does keep them at 10ft, would the player even be able to attack it if they didn't have reach?
