So how does Double Slice interact with resistances?

For exmaple, My playtest Ranger is wielding a Short Sword and a Light Mace. He Double Slices a Skeleton. Both attacks hit for 4 damage each. Double Slice clearly combines this into 8 damage. However is the Damage both Slashing and Bludgeoning? And does the skeleton with Resist 5 to Slashing, get to apply the resistance or not?

For Order 3602645 the Ranger Class deck had been opened. The Agna card is missing and a few other cards a mangled on one corner. I would like a remedy to this situation.

Order 3602645 was placed on June 9th and is listed as still pending. Is there problem with the order?

Now I realize I am an idiot that is most likely missing something simple, but I can not seem to figure out how to leave a a product review. Where on the website would I find this feature?

Are the Special Attacks/Maneuvers of Summoned creatures enhanced with things such as Augmented Summoning and Bulls Strength? For example is Rend Damage increased? or Powerful Charge. If so, by what formula? Any rules citations to back up your reply will be appreciated.

Can Crane Wing be used to deflect a touch attack (from a spell)?

"....you can deflect one melee weapon attack that would normally
hit you."

The Melee Weapon Attack is the wording that I believe causes the confusion.

Opinions?

Does the Whip Mastery Feat apply to the Cat-o-Nine-Tails from Pirates of the inner sea. In the descriptive text it is referred to as a whip, but does that satisfy the requirement for the feat? Or does the feat only work for the specific weapon named "Whip"?

OK I have two questions that came up during a recent game and am interested in hearing opinions on.

1. If a character is under the effects of the spells Displacement and Mirror Image, what is the order in which an attack is resolved? (ie. do you roll for miss chance and then to see if an image is hit?)

2. Can a caster under the effects of the spell Transformation dismiss a previously cast spell? (Wall of Force was the specific situation.)

Was wondering if this tracks, or in other words can anyone pick holes in my reading of RAW?

Could a Monk using Spring Attack, move to an enemy, disarm them, pick up the weapon, then finish out their movement to dispose of said weapon?

Disarm = "You can attempt to disarm your opponent in place of a melee attack."
&
"If you successfully disarm your opponent without using a weapon, you may automatically pick up the item dropped."

Spring Attack = "You can move up to your speed and make a single melee attack without provoking any attacks of opportunity from the target of your attack."

"The following familiar ability works differently for a gravewalker:Deliver Touch Spells (Su): At 3rd level or higher, a gravewalker can use her poppet to deliver touch spells. After casting a
touch spell, as a full-round action, the witch can designate a target and stab a pin into her poppet, delivering the spell as a ranged touch attack. The target must be within range of her aura of desecration ability (see below)."

OK I read that as "By increasing the casting time of the spell to a full round action...." but and argument could be made that the rule is saying that you cast the spell normally AND then as a full round action.....

Am I right?

Start cathartic rant.

This is my plea to the PFS campaign staff and scenario writers. Please, please, please stop making skills irrelevant/ destroying a plausible roleplaying situation.. Again last night while playing Shadows Last Stand Part II, as we captured and NPC my character approached with the intent to Intimidate some info out of the guy. Then the DM says "Oh the module says he does not talk, your intimidate will not work". I sigh and move on. How many times have I seen this? I know the writers love their NPC's, but why are they so special that certain rules do not work against them. If the NPC's can get skill immunity, why not PC's? I mean come on, thanks for punishing me for putting ranks in the less feel good option of the social skills. If you feel the need then write in a bonus. "Nate the NPC grew up on the streets and is accustomed to threats, any attempt to Intimidate has its DC increased by 5." But please stop "box texting" away our plausible options.

Ok end rant.

OK my brain is not working well this evening and the portion that does math seems to be on strike so is this correct?

If a 10th lvl Magus casts an Intensified Shocking Grasp (2nd lvl spell) while using the Empowered Magic Arcana (or a Rod of Empower) delivered with the Spellstrike ability wielding a Keen Scimitar.... and crits... the damage would be 20d6 x 1.5 + Weapon Damage? So 30-180 + Weapon Damage.

Does Divine Bond increase the inherent damage reduction of a weapon? In other words, If a 5th level Paladin had a +2 weapon and used Divine bond to increase this to a +3, would that weapon then bypass DR/cold Iron and DR/Silver?

Ok I realize this is probably a dumb question, but is the damage dice or just the bonus per 2 levels? (1d6)+ (1 * 2 levels) or (1d6+1)* 2 levels
