The Lore Shaman's Spirit Ability states:

Quote:


Monstrous Insight (Su): The shaman can identify creatures and gain insight into their strengths and weaknesses. As a standard action, the shaman can attempt a Knowledge skill check to identify a creature and its abilities (using the appropriate skill for the monster’s type) with an insight bonus equal to her shaman level. Whether or not the check is successful, she also gains a +2 insight bonus for 1 minute on attack rolls made against that creature and a +2 insight bonus to her AC against attacks made by that creature. These bonuses last for 1 minute. The shaman can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + her Charisma modifier.

The wording 'on that creature', makes it sound like it is against an singular individual creature. However, it would make sense if the bonuses were against any creature of it's same type.

For example: Party is being attacked by 3 wolves and a Goblin. My Shaman makes a monsterous insight check against Knowledge Nature. Would it matter which wolf she made the check against? And would she only get the benefits of the ability towards that wolf, or would the bonus apply to all the wolves but not the goblin (of course).

Thank you in advance for everyone helping me understand this.
