So an Arcanist using wearing a Circlet of Persuasion adds +3 to their dispel check when using the Greater Spell Disruption exploit?


How does the published Arcanist ability of Greater Spell Disruption interact if at all with bonuses that granted by a Circlet of Persuasion?

Greater Spell Disruption:
Greater Spell Disruption (Su): The arcanist can disrupt a spell effect or magic item by expending 1 point from her arcane reservoir. This acts like a targeted dispel magic with a range of touch. The arcanist can add her Charisma modifier to the dispel check. The arcanist must have the spell disruption exploit to select this exploit.

Circlet of Persuasion:
This delicately engraved silver headband grants its wearer a +3 competence bonus on Charisma-based checks.

What makes a check "Charisma-based"?


Can Break Enchantment end the effect of an Alchemist's mutagen or a Master Chymist's mutagenic form ability?


Forewarned.

Surprise round: teleport to sanctuary.

Combat: Scry on previous location and determine identify of attacker.

Next we wait until he is sleeping, destroy magic items, and teleport him to another planet. Contingency teleport back to home planet without him.

Fin.


Apparently the monday morning quarterback ruling is that in the future that will not be a viable suggestion to use. There was also concern that suggestion should be stronger than command. But the 'one order per spell' line of spells doesn't have much mechanical effects written and appears to be largely up to DM fiat.


The argument in favor of the suggestion was that since it can only make one suggestion per spell that it can exceed the power of a charm spell. I obviously disagreed.


Hey all.

I was wondering what the ruling is for a suggestion spell. The scenario:

A monster used mass suggestion against the party. The wording was "kill your friends". Which is a simple enough suggestion. However the spell description says that the spell doesn't work if the suggestion is obviously harmful.

Is it obviously harmful to turn on your friends in the midst of combat and attack them, thus causing them to cut you down? What constitutes 'obviously harmful'? What are the limits of what you can get something to do with a suggestion spell?

Thanks!
