Yes I know that, I'm thinking on forget about Taunt and keep it raising as individual skill and pick Archaeologist as Bard Archetype.
Thanks to everyone for your help and sorry for the delay, I was out the entire day.
Imagine a non combatant showing his dagger with Dazzling display and get them panicked before even starting the encounter... And then shift toward Negotiator Bard for the others bonuses. I was using Phantom Thief to get both Mocking Bird and Ancestral Enlightenment Vigilante's Social Talent and Trapspotter Rogue Talent, mixing up with Dilettante and Breadth of Experience, 5 ranks and 14 Int, I will have 4+2+2+5+2+3=+18 in every Knowledge check that is almost useful to know up to CR 9 Monsters.
Thanks to @Claxon and to @Zarius for your tip too.
Thanks for the reference of Kender, I loved Dragonlance like no other Novel of the entire D&D Narrative... But mine is a Gnome. I just don't have to bother for the Intimidate unlock or I have to? My Plan is to get 5 levels of Phantom Thief and then go straight with Negotiator Bard to get a few spells and a coupple of bonus from here and there. Right Choice? By the way, I will be the party Face and healer at any point with wands or a few spells. So I guess that more than 3 unlocked skills and 2 Vigilante's Talents won't be necessary stay in Thief and can change to Bard.
Hello to everybody,
Taunt:
You may be small, but your remarks cut others down to size. Prerequisites: Cha 13, Small size or smaller. Benefit: You can demoralize opponents using Bluff rather than Intimidate (see the Intimidate skill description for details) and take no skill check penalty for being smaller than your target. Now as I will have Bluff, Perception and Disable Device as Unlocked Skills and Now I use Bluff as Intimidate, my question is if I will get Intimidate as Unlocked Skill too or just those 3? Any Idea?
Actually I just realized that I got confused between Physical Science and Life Science... Indeed right now is not so really attractive to make the knowledge check because is pretty tough to do.Spacefarer is still good with Jack of All Trades of Operative, but not with knowledge checks.
I directly apologize for my bad english, I'm not native english so I know the words but a few times I mess with the sense of the idea. ... The Spacefarer gives you the Phisical Science Class Skill, that is a +3, Edge x2 at lvl 8 for Alien Archive is +6 and 8 Ranks for +17 without Int Modifier that should be +3 (14 +2 @5) and be 20 if Trained. Without Training and allowing mix Jack of All trades and Alien Archive, It will be Edge x3 that is +9, +3 In Modifier and +2 for Spacefarer for a +14 total.I wrong writed between Mysticism and Life Science, my bad. The blitz soldier is usefull for the movement and for the initiative, because you will need to react as fast as hell and move like that fast to escape even using jet dash to escape like no other.. Edit:
I was reading another tread where someone says yes and other not. I guess DM choice. The tread is this : Stacking Exploit
Yeah, I did something similar as well with my skill monkey. Yeah is pretty good, but I guess that for scouting the better one is the scout, because there will be moments that you will seriously need to phase to escape or to get invisible while moving at 70 feets or more depending on your upgrades... BTW I love all your PF build and I have your blog as favorite.
I think that the whole point of the ability of Sacred Weapon is falling apart and noone seeing for it. There are many threads where you can find the progression by size increment or impact enchant or lead bleades that is the same. Let's see the ability how it works: Sacred Weapon (Su):
Whenever the warpriest hits with his sacred weapon, the weapon damage is based on his level and not the weapon type. The damage for Medium warpriests is listed on Table 1–14; see the table below for Small and Large warpriests. The warpriest can decide to use the weapon's base damage instead of the sacred weapon damage—this must be declared before the attack roll is made. That mean that a lvl 10 medium Warpriest could use a dagger to do 1d10+Str mod to damage. Now, if the same Warpriest use Fervor to cast a Righteous Might to become enlarge, his sacred dagger would do 2d8+Str Mod on damage. Furthermore, if he has his dagger with the impact special ability, that would become: 3d8+Str Mod on damage. The Sacred Waeapon change the BASE dice, it means that if he grows it would be increased, and for that exist the table for large warpriest. Weapon can get one increase for size, and another one for the enchantment like impact or leadblades, but no more than those could stack. So, a Warpriest of Sarenrae that has all the 3 abilities up, could make 3d8+STR and other bonuses, 18-20/x2 if not keen. Be free to check earlier threads about the increasing size damage. Cheers.
Any major changes to these builds? Looking to build one starting at 9 or 10 with ABP in effect. I have been building a ranged version of the CoI and I have to say that I'm hitting for almost 200 dmg at round at lvl 20, without any lithany or mayor spells. I'm on Jade Regent path right now, but at level 6, just beginning the build. I guess that on lvl 11, will be ready enough to stay alone and help a lot of people.
What's up my ppl????
I would like to know who thought about making a CoI but ranged one instead of punching. Picking Sohei has Monk to get the Bow Mastery (and gloves of martial mastery too), Paladin and only 2 levels of CoI. Making: 8 Monk for the FoB with the bow, plus Rapid Shot and Manyshot, and 10 levels of pally... It could be quite useful... Even with 14 wis, He could have 7 Ki Point, 2 for the ring and 5 to use, but each Ki Channel, using the philactery of good channeling, could restore 5 point... And with 20 Cha, they would be 8 Channels/Day, for a total of 45 Ki Points Daily and the hell from that bow.... Who could Imagine something better to make the perfectionist of the air wave and sense of the arrow?
I was reading all the forum and I didn't get anything abot if a Barbarian's Mount will get the benefit of rage class feature when his rider spend the additional round of rage for the Ferocious Mount Power. If the answer is yes, could the mount take vital strike chain and furious finish to maximize that?
Thanks. I will put it again in rules and deleting here.
Still no one knows about if it works?
Pounce is really good if you can afford it at low-mid level, because when you start to fight versus giant enemies with reach and special abilities like grab, trip and so on, if you don't have enough CMD to resist, you could just die or be incapacitated in your charge. Reach is awesome since start, because you don't have to stand just in front of the enemy to hit him, something that will give you enough breath and good positioning. Fly is good, but there are many ways to get that and there no many flying encounters...
Hello to everyone.
First of all, as the Title says, I was going to Mix the Sensei with the CoI and Monk of four winds, up to lvl 12 monk, 4 paladin, 4 CoI. Now on, I have a few doubt about if all work. Mystic Wisdom (Su):
At 6th level, a sensei may use his advice ability when spending points from his ki pool to activate a class ability (using the normal actions required for each) in order to have that ability affect one ally within 30 feet rather than the sensei himself.
At 10th level, a sensei may affect all allies within 30 feet rather than himself (spending points from his ki pool only once, not once for each target). At 10th level, a sensei may instead spend 1 point from his ki pool (as a swift action) while using advice to provide a single ally within 30 feet with evasion, fast movement, high jump, purity of body, or slow fall. As I can undestand, if I spend a ki point I can give any ability that I have related on activation to an ally.
CoI Ki Pool (Su):
At 2nd level, a champion of Irori gains a ki pool equal to 1/2 his class level + his Wisdom modifier; this functions like the monk ability of the same name, and levels in this class stack with levels in other classes that grant a ki pool. In addition to the normal uses of this ki pool, a champion of Irori may expend 2 ki points to trigger either his lay on hands ability (if he has it) or his smite evil ability. His class levels stack with paladin levels when determining the effect of such abilities. As I can understan here, I can spend a Ki Point to activate either Smite Evil/Chaos or Lay on Hands to one ally at lvl 6 or to any ally at level 10. Question are:
You can do this? I have always assumed that you have to take the feat and skill points when you level up. The build could be good, the matter is that my DM is old fashoned, where less multiclass is going to be, better is. Allowing at least 2 or 3 classes as much, or a prestige class if needed.By the way, Improved grapple couln't be at lvl 1, you need improved unarmed strike to get it. I was thinkg about Druid, Monk for a few feats and then quitting lawfull to get barbarian or something that could push damage "legally" and without mixing too much...
Well, the 6k of the extra belt's cost is a good fee to pay. Worth it. Now, I will have indeed the Strong Jaw already cast on me, and wildshaped on a dire tiger.So it would it stack again between Strong Jaw and the belt? Damage with claws will be:
Correct?
I don't know about Hive Totem Ferocity, but Strong Jaw and Improved Natural Attack don't stack. I might acquire a Wand of Strong Jaw even if I took INA for just such an occasion when I had time to buff myself 2 sizes instead of 1, but that would be to get 2 sizes instead of 1, not 3 instead of 1. Thank you Scott. By the way I already reread Hive Totem Toxicity Power and doesn't stack here in this build. What I recently discovered is this Awesome Belt Would this increase apply to the charging hit with the Janny Style on a charge attack with pounce?
I was already thinking about the Phylactery to get 4d6 for each channel from the paladin and 3d6 for the cleric's ones. Indeed I wouldn't use all of them for the ki point restore, but I'm the healer in a 3 party's member...
I'm thinking a lot about the ki channel feat, because I'm playing another game with another party, and with my sohei, I'm using a ki point each round for the extra attack on the flurry with the bow... and we have more than 6 fight per day...
I talk about the Ki Channel, because if I need more AC or an additional attack with the flurry of blows, I will need those ki points to make everything, unless the Ring of Ki Mastery will lower to free the AC boost or the extra attack in flurry.
Str* 18
These are my rolled stats, I'm human with the double talented trait.
How we could make the Perfect Opening trick to work now? It seems that Paizo saw to many CoI avoiding critical attacks and decided to change entirely Crane Wing...Any idea how to do don't die for a frightful critical hit?
Thanks, I know perfectly tbe prototype00's guide, but as I didn't go for channel smite, I have 1 open slot, I already taken Noble Scion of War for Cha to init. And I guess that more ki points would help me with more AC, more hits on FoB and so on...Furthermore, I guess that CoI don't mention Channel energy as he intend to enter at lvl 1 or 2 of paladin, not 4... And there falls my doubt... And with bronze gong is one-one trade, Ki Channel is more...
I recently started an adventure with a few friends, and I decided to create a CoI.
The idea came from the Ki Channel Feat:
If the 1st quote works, a Paladin (Hospitaler 6), CoI 10, should have an efective level of 13. Adding the Phylactery of Positive Channeling we get 9d6 of Channel Energy or 9 Ki Points at the same point... With 10 uses of Channel daily, we are talking about 90 ki points from this source only...If doesn't work, I guess that 4d6 or 4 ki point by each use is quite better than 1 by one of the bronze gong... What do you think people?
What will happen if we take Hive Totem Ferocity while wildshaped in a Hippo with strongjaw and the Improved Natural attack (Bite)? Would it stack to get 16d8 or 18d8 of bite damage?
I think the FCT MAY have killed the build, but I'm not sure. Sad, as it one of the most fun builds I have ever played. By the way yes, Almost killed, but we could still apply dragon, snake, crane style and almost a few thing, but we can forget the augmentation damage of the fist... No more monastic legacy or monk's robe...
Dunno, tetori monk + lore warden fighter for the ultimate grappler? Dunno, but in High levels, with huge monsters or bbeg I don't know how useful is grapple...
By the way, I took Inspired Blade to get Int + Cha as Panachea, actually 10 at lvl 1... and the 1st Deeds like parry and riposte. Additionally I will take level 2, to get Cha to ST 3/day not bad at all..
Could be good, but no summoner or summoning allowed... we are just OP for a normal adventure path.
Ok, So I have to choose wich of those 2 spellcasting abilities to use... I guess Sorcerer could be good, and with the Mistyc Theurge, 1/day will be using one spell from both sides. Yes I was meaning Bronze dragon, but it was 4 am and I was half asleep while answering lol... I took the Kensai for the Canny Defense and the most important the help on the initiative and on criticals. But I guess that it could be better continue the bloodline in order to reach the other benefits.
I'm Nature Oracle, for the CHA to AC, don't know well the other revelation at lvl 19 for oracle 7...
Yes, I rolled 17, 16, 16, 15, 13, 10.
I finished with +19 BAB, just loosing at fifth level. I would have to change something because both magus archetypes replace spell recall that I was not noticing (my bad)... There is a way to boost for 7 levels my bloodline to reach 17 levels? Is to get up to +7 natural armor bonus. My AC with the canny ability of Kensai, using my CHA to AC a coupple of times (instead of Dex, as Dodge Bonus thx to Osyluth Guile and as Armor Bonus from Boon 2 of Arshea) I was wondering like 70 at least... So yes basicaly the roof to get the attention of the bbeg quickly. The Rime spell is part of the chill touch, intimidating, scaring and disabling enemies. The other side there is the intensified Shocking Grasp that synchronize really well with the draconic bloodline of copper dragon... Any help to set it well?
Every build I have seen are really good, but when you will rize it from the bottom, and for an adventure with just 3 players, you have to think about it... I just have made one, copying a most of the Kaouse's build
My Character is a C/G Female Angel-Blooded Aasimar called Niramour "The Spontaneus" follower of Arshea... She is practically an easy "woman" that pursue the pleasure of the flesh... You ppl know what I mean...She is venerable, but with the Aged Curse, She has these Ability Score:
I'm Ending in this Somehow:
The Sorcerer is a Crossbloded Fey / Draconic
My DM allowed the Evangelist's Aligned class to pick up the Magus and continue the draconic bloodline from the sorcerer. So at lvl 20, I will be a Magus 9 / Sorcerer 18 / Oracle 18. Now a few questions:
Cheers!!
There's some debate over arcane deed getting precise strike to work because Arcane Deed doesn't allow you to use your magus levels in place of swashbuckler levels. Actually you are wrong. Arcane Deed (Ex): Prerequisite(s) Flamboyant arcana Benefit(s) When a magus takes this arcana, he can pick any one deed from the swashbuckler class feature as long as that deed can be used by a swashbuckler of his magus level. The magus can use that deed by using points from his arcane pool as the panache points required for that deed. A magus can take this arcana multiple times, each time gaining a new deed. The feat itsealf state that the magus will need enough levels to reach the swashbuckler to use the ability.
For a Magus the Arcane Accuracy Magus Arcana is the obvious thing to use. It does better than replace Str (or Dex) with Int; it adds an insight bonus equal to your Int modifier on top of your Str (or Dex). That will be using a Swift each round of melee and 1 point, so I will run out very quickly. Still researching anything ;)
S-Kirin style This work only for damage on hits, not to attack rolls. But thanks to all!!
Really thanks to anyone!
I would like to know if there is any chance to do it, because I can't find anywhere, and I didn't see any old threads about this point of the game. Thanks in advance!!
Lvl 0 - You Know Only 6 Orizons
Lvl 1 You Know only 4, including Detect Undead.
Lvl 2 You Know only 4, including Lesser Restoration.
Check every spell that you got, and check what you can throw away...
Far Away since last post:
If I have an Half-Orc Barbarian with the Toothy trait + Lesser Beast Totem, I will get 3 Natural attacks.
How does improved unarmed strike interact with the three natural weapon requirement for Multiattack?
Far Away since last post:
If I have an Half-Orc Barbarian with the Toothy trait + Lesser Beast Totem, I will get 3 Natural attacks.
Really Thanks!!!
It's better to do Awesome Display or better go with Nature or Lore and get CHA to AC instead of DEX? I will try to post it here.
Always go with initiative. Because sometimes going First means going Last. And sometimes going Last means going Never. Totally Agree!!! By the way, Anzyr, taking Fey Foundling is an option when you are going to go dip into paladin for the Swift LoH in conjunction with Greater Mercy.I agree that FF is good for ANY player that would receive more health for every cure... Even Barbarians....
You obviously misunderstood, it was either of those Mysteries rather than all three at once ._. Ok. Thanks... I'm not an English main speaker, so many times I don't recognize humor sentences... lol...
Not much old. Just reviewed again. I Guess that you could not use each one of your misteries, because Lore and Nature don't double the CHA do AC, because you are already avoiding your DEX for your AC.
I was looking for stack the Heaven and Nature Mistery.
There is a way?
How could you Take 2 Misteries? As far I saw in different threads, an Oracle can hace just one Mistery...
Thanks to Every one.
How did you get both Revelations if the Archetype give you the option to take another one? Maybe the Extra Revelation Feat?
I guess that would be 1d6 dazzling damage 8+ times daily. Why Animal Domain? I mean that Speak with Animals and Calm Animals a few times/day, are the only things that you get from that level, aside of the Separatist 2nd domain.
It has a little mistake: 1 Oracle - 1 Cleric - 3 Druid = -5 on your level, and Boon Companion has 4 level higher, so you could get at lvl 20 a lvl 19 companion. The Cleric could help at lvl 4, but this won't happen, or it does?
Where I can find the way to make this trick?
Misfortune is an inmediate action, so I guess that you can only affect 1 people/round. Or I'm wrong?
How 3 ST so quickly?
My favorite way to destroy BBEGs and other worthy foes is with a flurry of AoOs. What BBEG mean? I looked so far and I didn't even found any other acronym...
