Are there any options available (not third party tho) that will allow some spells to last all day?
I understand Extending a caster level 12 1 hour/CL duration spells will be all day. (or basic variations of that)
But magic gear, or anything, that allows something like a 10 minute/Caster Level duration, or even less, spell last all day?
EDITED TO ADD: As well as third party, I'm not interested in things like custom magic items or whatever. Those rules are dodgy, and I never want to use them as a player.
Which weapons are "treated as X". I mean, the Dueling Dagger has slightly different stats, but says "Any effects that apply to daggers apply to dueling daggers."
Does anyone happen to have a list of which all weapons can be treated as other weapons?
If you can trip during a flurry, then you use strength or dex for your bonus, depending on weapon finesse and such (not on all combat maneuvers, but trip is one).
I have weapon finesse. Even though I'm using the buckler, would it still count as the unarmed strike that the maneuver replaces, and be based off dex?
Or, since it's unspecified, does it go to the default strength?
If a monk has buckler proficiency, and the unhindering shield feat, can he exchange one attack with a trip combat maneuver using the hooked boss buckler?
You're not making an attack with the buckler; you're using a combat maneuver in place of an attack. So I dunno.
And if this monk can do this, is there any raw about using his Dex for his bonus, as he would be able to with, say, a dagger?
And do I keep my buckler AC even when I try to snag people with it?
Can somebody explain this interaction to me as though I were really slow?

Sipping Demon (Su)
A 13th level, a hungry ghost monk gains 1 temporary hit point each time he hits an enemy with a melee attack. The monk gains a number of temporary hit points equal to his Wisdom modifier when he scores a critical hit. The maximum number of temporary hit points the monk can have is equal to his monk level. The temporary hit points disappear 1 hour later. The monk can only use this ability when he has at least 1 ki point in his ki pool. This ability is a proscribed manipulation of ki considered by many good monks to be a corruption.
The ability replaces diamond soul.
Quote:
Lifesurge Weapon
...In addition, whenever the wielder receives temporary hit points from any source, he adds the weapon’s enhancement bonus to these temporary hit points; this does not stack for temporary hit points from multiple sources, and these points are lost if the lifesurge weapon is not being wielded.
So, even though Sipping Demon stacks, the bonus temp HP from lifesurge does not stack? I assume each attack giving temp HP counts as HP from multiple sources.
So, at level 20, with a +5 lifesurge weapon: I attack and hit, gain 6 temp HP. Every attack after that adds just 1 temp HP, up to a max of 20.
From what I understand, from what yall are saying, if I had a mithril Tatami-do, I can still enchant it with Advancing, which requires heavy armor.
That was my main goal in all of this. That, and have a good, high Max DEX, which I will have. +3 Base, another +2 for mithral, and +3 for the armor being barding for a Charger (so, eventually up to +3). The cat's dex mod will be +8, so it works.
If I have a mithril Tatami-do, it has an AC bonus of +7, max dex of +5, and a -3 ACP, and it counts as medium armor. If I add an armored kilt to it, does it now have an AC bonus of +8, max dex of +5, -3 ACP, and count as heavy armor?
Well, it'd be 60% evade, but only when you'd normally have 50% evade. Seems like a lot of feat tax, for only a lil. I mean, I'm assuming you'd be relying on your auto blur/displacement for your main source of concealment, but those tend to fall by the sidelines sometimes, the more you level. Hell, anyone can even see in magical darkness with 32k gold. And even then, with all that, you can feint once a turn, but only to deny them their dex bonus to AC. You're not trying to land sneak attacks, or do any tricks. Just a better chance of hitting.
There are much better options to accomplish that, using way less feats.
Unless I missed something.
But yeah, if I were you, I'd see if your DM will let you retrain those two feats, and abandon that chain.
I mean, it doesn't say "Add X damage, where X is the number of damage dice." It just says "Add +1 damage per die". But, now that this dead horse is thoroughly beat, if a DM wouldn't allow that, the fireball does 2 damage per damage die less.
70d6+350 averages to 596 fire damage. Cast twice in a turn is 1,192. It's not really overkill, though, considering how rare it'll be to narrow it all the way to only 5 ft.
Either way.
I did realize that in my notes, I had this item, but it didn't make it to this post.
Amulet of the Spirits (flame) 10k gp
Twice a day, as a swift action, give a target fire vulnerability for one turn.
Oof, I completely missed that on Blissful Spell, you're right. That'll change the whole build.
Yeah, I think we'll just leave it to the DM. I'm a pretty strict DM, but I don't see anything questionable here (except my mistake about Blissful Spell).
I don't know why people think +1 per damage die is different than +1 to attack per ray. If the feat said "Evocation spells deal +10 damage", would Spell Perfection double that? What about if it said "Evocation spells deal extra damage equal to the spell level"?
And is there rules spelled out talking about the order in which metamagic feats are applied? I didn't think there would be any problem customizing a spell with a feat, and freely insert the effects of metamagic.
Either way, I agree, I don't really feel like debating it any further. I'd have to clear it with a DM to play, because there are obviously concerns other people have, but I don't feel like I'm abusing any rules, or misreading how things work.
I mean, honestly, I thought I was pretty strict with this build. Instead of a trait that gives me +1 CL for Fireball, I could have taken Magical Knack, and instead gave all my Sorcerer spells +1 CL. But I thought there may have been issues with "to a max of your HD". I think it would work. But I could see how some people would say "Since your effective caster level (with Blissful and all that) is higher than your HD, that trait doesn't give any benefit." And as much as I'd love to allow this character to use the half-orc favored class bonus for Sorcerer, and I count as having the Orc subtype (see the Orc bloodline)...but no. Half-Orc isn't the same as Orc (though it can be used the other way around). So I didn't build on that.
So bringing the thread back on track....
What do you think? Should I go gnome instead? I could get +1 CL to fire with that. Or a race that gives Spell Focus at level 1? With Blissful gone, I could find room for Varisian Tattoo.
And I'm not wanting to eek out every last point of damage. I still want this to be an effective, all around good character. I know my AC is abysmal. I'm very fragile. I could just say, "Well, it's a caster", but if I can overcome weaknesses, I'd like to.
With a DM's permission, I *could* taken Nature's Whispers at level 2 (once I get my first level of oracle). With that and Mage Armor and my +1 DEX mod, I'd have an AC of 20. As soon as I can afford and find a Ring of Revelation, I'll get one of Nature's Whispers, and retrain my revelation into Misfortune. I love Misfortune, especially earlier on. But I dunno. I normally don't like planning retraining like that. While legal, it feels cheap.
Or I could change the draconic bloodline to Psychic, and be able to wear medium armor. Once you get +8 bracers of armor, medium armor isn't worth +1 damage/die on all your main dps. So I don't want to do that.
Either way, I do think I want to make him Chaotic Neutral. And he'll try to eventually get a Fast Black Dragon Skeleton to ride. After all these years, I still don't know the rules on how riding a mindless undead would work. I assume it wouldn't be handle animal checks, but...
BUT, his patron deity would be like, some NG or LG mystical goddess of goodness. He's not learned or devout, but one of his parents was, and always told him that the goddess was looking out for him. And he wears an amulet holy symbol under his shirt.
Would definitely play up his Wisdom only being 7. He's very rash, and doesn't have a good handle on things. But he's fun to be around. Witty.
Dice are by nature a variable, not a set number. The value ranges between 1 and the number of sides, in this case 6. That means spell perfection cannot affect the number of dice.
I'm high currently, but is this addressed to me? I'm confused.
" It is not a feat in and of itself." I wasnt implying that it was. It is not improved by spell perfection. But someone else said i couldn't get it because I had a bloodline familiar.
"Flumefire Rage adds a variable bonus to spell damage..."
Agree to disagree. I don't call +1 variable, even if it's added to something that is variable (like in my example of weapon focus). It's a set number when applied to a spell. It is not randomised upon casting. So it's set and numerical (widen spell or magic trick are not improved by spell perfection).
Wow, a lot to cover. I didn't spell it out,but yes, Im using the magic tricks clusterbomb and concentrated fire. This is not caster level capped. For the same reason, they would not benefit from intensified spell.
Blood rage says, "Otherwise, this benefit is the same as the bloodrage class feature". It acts as bloodrage. Mad magic says I can cast during bloodrage. The feat, Raging Blood, doesn't say I can't cast while raging. But we know that's true, because its told us it's bloodrage.
I have three traits, and one drawback, which is an optional rule.
There are many items contending for my neck slot, but most DMs I've had allow the rules that I can make it a ring for 1.5 the cost, or slotless for x2. Worse case, I can switch necklaces as necessary.
It seems three's confusion on the numbers though. If you see how my caster level gets to 28, then I can cast fireball. Clusterfire, widen. That's a 14 blast fireball, each doing 2d6 damage with a 20ft area.. Using condensed, for every 5 ft I shrink the range, the damage goes up by 1d6. So if I shrink it down to only 5 ft, that's 14 balls doing 5d6. The bonus damage per die is maxed at +7. +1 each for orc and draconic bloodline. +1 for blood havoc (which can be taken as a feat, even if I have otherwise gotten my 1st bloodline ability). I would get +1 for Flumefire Rage, or +2 if I'm raging. This would be doubled with spell perfection (this and spell specialization are the only things improved by spell perfection). So I'm raging, and getting a total of +7 fire damage for every damage die of the spell.
I did just notice wrong numbers in my notes. 28d6 damage is correct for a 20 ft blast, but at 5 ft, it is increased only to 70d6 (14 blasts, at 5d6 each).
70d7 would then get +490 (+7 per die). When empowered, even those +7 per die points are empowered ("All variable, numeric effects of an empowered spell are increased by half including bonuses to those dice rolls.")
One last point, then i think we're all caught up. Flumefire Rage gives a flat bonus to a spell, and it is a feat. +1 damage per die is flat. If weapon focus (ray) gives +1 to hit, you don't call it variable because sometimes you get more rays per spell.
If it added 1d3 points of damage per spell die, then we'd agree it was a variable bonus, and wouldn't be improved by spell perfection.
Or you could run him Chaotic Neutral. He rides around on a Large Fast Black Dragon Skeleton. He has goat horns, and no pupils. Eventually, he'll have wings himself, but he still rides the skele. He has his own timeless dimension. How boss.
At level 20, this caster can strip immunity to fire, then deal (84d6+588)1.5 per fireball (a five foot fireball), and cast two fireballs a turn.
These are all the relevant stats to him.
The format is terrible. I don't care.
At level 2, he picks up the single level of oracle. He's casting 10 Burning Hands a day, that do either 5d4+10 or 4d4+8 damage each. Every turn, he's picking his least favorite enemy, and making him reroll something he did well. In a pinch, he can make his allies reroll 1/day/ally.
So he doesn't start out weak and get super strong. He's just always gonna be fun.

The Deathsnatcher gets 1d8+10 damage on his claw attacks. His strength is only 23 (a +6 mod). It doesn't look like it's a secondary attack, or using Power Attack. When I do Monstrous Physique to turn into one, I need to know what's going on. Should I just do 1d8 + full STR mod?
Making a level 10 gestalt character. One class is Occultist Arcanist. Will have 20 INT and CHA, so I can summon monster 5, using my points, about six times a day. With School Understanding (Prophecy Divination), I always act in the surprise round, which means I could Summon and Inspire, before combat really starts. I know I want the other class to be bard, but there are a ton of archetypes, and I'm not sure where I'd be best served. Bardic Knowledge, Lore Master, and Versatile performance are things I know I want to keep.
Anyone have any archetype ideas for me? Bonus points for general build ideas, also, but I feel I have an okay grasp on it.

And I had an Amulet of Natural armor:
Quote:
This amulet...toughens the wearer’s body and flesh, giving him an enhancement bonus to his natural armor from +1 to +5, depending on the kind of amulet.
Okay. I kinda gave up on this build a while ago, but I've finally got back to it, trying to make it work. I've conceded that Outflank with Dimensional Savant can't give myself attacks of opportunity; I just have it for an extra +2 flanking bonus. If a DM won't allow that, menancing on my weapon should still surely work, and I'll trade that feat to something else. And maybe even Savant in the first place, I dunno. So I'm just looking for massive oversights, or options that I haven't thought of. Either way, the barebones of the build:

EDITED TO ADD: I would personally prefer to retrain feats like crazy the whole time, but I'm assuming a DM wouldn't care for it, and could easily say I can't find trainers for everything at all the levels I need them.
I agree it's up to interpretation. My arguments are that the critical hit throws and enemy off just enough to allow an opening that a flanking ally gets to come in and attack. As I'm able to teleport up to a couple times per second at later levels, I'm assuming that opening would still be there for me if I teleported there.
I was under the impression that you can count yourself as "an ally", in Pathfinder. Normally, this combo wouldn't work, because you're not flanking with yourself. With Dimensional Savant, though, you are. Think there was a post about it a while ago, and that was the general consensus of those present, but I don't know if it's raw legal or not.
And they're probably looking at the SRD. It has waveblades mentioned as being in the monk fighter group, I believe. Either the srd, or the Archives of nethys, I don't remember.
EDITED TO ADD: One level dip in Crusader Cleric gives proficiency and weapon focus with a katana. Being a human, two level dip in fighter (will eventually be three, so that weapon master and the magic gloves buff me even more), and having my katana have the Training magic weapon ability, I'm able to get all the requisite feats by level 13, including Combat Reflexes so that I can AoO more than once a round. And still have enough left over for Extra Vested Power (Divine Power), Medusa's Wrath, Improved Critical (Katana), and Power Attack. I could just as easy trade out the Training enhancement for Keen, and be in the same place, though.
I thought about a large sized waveblade (looking for something I can two-hand), but even then, waveblade isn't in the monk fighter group. With the ascetic feats, I can use my unarmed damage for the base damage anyway, but you can't two hand power attack with a light weapon.
And even then, that's a -2 penalty I'd have to pay 4k gold to get rid of.
None of it worked, so I'm trying something new. And yeah, I really want that 18-20 crit range.
EDITED TO ADD: It IS a lot of work to make it work, but if I'm burning 1 ki point each turn to dimensional dervish, I'd like to get some back through Ki Leech, if I can. Plus, with Dimensional Savant and Outflank (plus a menacing weapon and a trait for flanking), I'd get +7 to hit when flanking with myself, and anytime I crit, I get an attack of opportunity. With Improved critical, a 15-20 threatens a crit about 1/3 of the timme, compared to 17-20 when threatens 1/5 of the time. Kinda worth the work, if I can do it.
Okay. A nodachi, modified, requires exotic weapon Prof. You take that feat, then weapon focus in Modified (monk) Nodachi. All modified (monk) nodachis ARE in the monk weapon group.
It's not in the blog list as being native to monk weapons, but that's because all modified weapons can be in different groups.
Ascetic style requires weapon focus with a weapon from the monk weapon group.
If I had Modified Weapon Proficiency (katana), and weapon focus (katana), could I get ascetic style, with the chosen weapon being "versatile design katana", and use use a monk katana with the feats?
I want the chosen weapon to be katana, so I can still use it with Ascetic Form, not just Ascetic Style.
Neither Stunning Fist or Quivering Palm use ki or are actual "ki strike feature", but they work. Why wouldn't UMonk be able to use Style Strike?
They work because it's specified, in the text, that they can work. Style Strike wouldn't, because you can't use style strikes with weapons, and this feat doesn't say that this changes.
It's in the flavor of it all, but the mechanics don't support it.
Temperans wrote:
You can 100% percent pick a Versatile Monk weapon, the issue is having the proficiency to use it.
In Ascetic Style, you pick a weapon from the monk fighter group of weapons, and have to weapon weapon focus in it. If I had weapon focus (Katana), I don't see how I can pick that as the chosen weapon for Ascetic Style, as it's not in the monk fighter group of weapons. As a DM, I would probably allow it, but can only use the style if you have a monk modified katana. However, the feat seems to be more restrictive than I'd want. A strict reading, I think, wouldn't allow that.
Temperans wrote:
As for the special line, it depends on how the GM rules it since I know of no FAQ about it. While I understand Derklord's reasoning behind saying it doesn't work, that is not the only possible interpretation. You csn just as easily
say that the following feat are modifying how you use the Ascetic Style weapon, which includes the special line. For example Startoss Style has very similar wording, but with thrown weapons; Are you going to say that you cannot use the later feats because those...
Well, just reading the feats, Startoss style tells you to pick a weapon (and it's designated as the "chosen weapon"). While Startoss Style will allow other thrown weapons, the latter two don't, and are restricted to just the chosen weapon. I thought they worked the same way you're saying, until Derklord pointed out that they don't say they do that.
I'm just gonna rebuild this monk. Crusader's Flurry with a katana. One of the first attacks will be unarmed. If it can, it'd be both a style strike and a stunning fist. Medusa's Wrath and Ascetic Style (and having a modified katana), and I could get two more katana attacks if they get staggered/stunned.
What you want is the Ki Intensifying weapon quality. Also the weapon modification to make the chosen weapon into a monk weapon works.
Ki intensifying only allows a couple stated abilities to be used through it. The ki Strike, allowing it to be counted as adamantine, etc, but not everything. Couldn't do a style Strike with it.
I'm not sure that you can make the chosen weapon something other than one from the monk group. As a katana isn't from the monk group, you can't choose it for the feat, even if you can get a monk katana. Be cool if I was wrong, but I don't see it.
Temperans wrote:
One could say that they indeed work, but the opposite argument is also possible. Depends on if the special makes all monk weapons the "chosen weapon".
It seems that the chosen weapon is a specific weapon. Ascetic Style says that you can use the feat with any other monk weapon also, but doesn't have any language that says they are now the chosen weapon, so it seems as though you can't.
So....it looks like you can't use Ascetic Form with any weapon that has a 18-20 crit range.
Waveblade isn't in the monk fighter group. Even getting Crusaders flurry with a katana with a weapon modification making it a monk weapon won't let you do an Unchained Monk's style strike with it. That's lame.
I dunno where yall are getting this "Hard cap" thing, where not even Arcane Pools can boost it. It may be there, I just haven't seen it. And if that's the case, does it specify that a Furious weapon can go above the +5? Or bring it above the +10 hard cap?
I've always assumed a magus can add abilities to a weapon, even if it has a +10 total.
A sheek thin veiled baggie then. And if that doesn't work, then I'll point out it has the same line of effect as heavy smoke, and spells DO work even with smoke soooo....
;)
EDITED TO ADD: IRL, that's a lot of Gold pieces worth of dust. If my character has a free day, and he's anything like me, maybe he could get a magnifying glass and tweezers, and get his dust back in a bottle. Show me the RAW that says not so.
Nah, that takes two feats (plus three other feats that you might want anyway), and even then you have to wait until at least 5th level.
There is one major problem with the waveblade not mentioned yet: It's not in the monk weapon group, meaning it's not eligible for Ascetic Style/Form. Which means no improved US damage, no DR penetration, no Stunning Fist with it, no style strikes with it, and no bonus ki attack with it.
You don't need Ascetic Style/Form, but it makes play smoother, and usually matches the flavor better.
Hm. I'm seeing a couple different places saying it's in the close and monk weapon groups. But archives is saying it's just close.
But even then, at level 5, I can apply the Ascetic Style feats to my waveblade, because it has the monk ability. Just weapon focus (unarmed) for the win. Because of the nature of the feat, that weapon focus isn't a feat tax, I'd get to add that +1 to my waveblade, also.
Quote:
Just so you know, mechanically, this is objectively bad until you can afford Irongrip Gauntlets without spending too much of a portion of your WBL on them.
Yeah, I don't really care about the crit profile until later, when I'm crit-fishing for Ki Leech, and giving myself bonus attacks when I do a dimensional dervish (Savant) with paired opportunist and outflank.
Nothing wrong with shuriken and fists the first few levels.
1) No. The monk weapon group is different from the monk special weapon quality which lets monks flurry with a weapon.
2) A monk with ascetic form would already be able to use it with all monk weapons regardless of the chosen weapon for Ascetic Style, because of the special line in Ascetic Style. Also note, monk weapon refers to weapons with the monk special weapon quality, not weapons in the monk fighter weapon group.
1) I misread, was thinking that UMonks are proficient with monk fighter group weapons.
2)
"Benefit(s): Choose one weapon from the monk fighter weapon group. While using this style and wielding the chosen weapon, you can apply the effects of feats that have Improved Unarmed Strike as a prerequisite, as well as effects that augment an unarmed strike, as if attacks with the weapon were unarmed attacks.
Special: A 5th-level monk or character with the weapon training (monk) class feature can use Ascetic Style with any monk weapon, in addition to the chosen melee weapon."
The feat talks about picking a weapon from the monk fighter group of weapons. Then says if you *this* then you can use it with any monk weapon, not just the one you chose.
How do you know that last mention of a "monk weapon" was a weapon with the monk ability, and not a weapon from the monk fighter group?
But if I did have a Nodachi with the versatile design weapon modification (and had proficiency) then I would be able to flurry with the Nodachi, if that Special line was for monk fighter group. And I would get the +1 to hit from weapon focus (unarmed), as the nodachi gets augmented by Weapon Focus, too.
Well, since usually specifics matter, I was wondering about a Metamagic Rager (Bloodrager) using rounds of Rage to (for free) Maximize spells and stuff. It says "The metamagic effect is applied without increasing the level of the spell slot expended," when you do this. So the Vampiric Touch would still be a level 3 spell, in all aspects?
i don't see how they can stack though? both are 'enhancement bonus' to the same attack and they same damage. these never stack. (not anymore then a magical weapon get both it's magical enhancement bonus to hit and the +1 enhancement from the fact it's also masterwork).
even the arrow and bow example you had doesn't stack. a +5 arrow shot from a +5 bow still only get +5 to hit and damage. the bow grant the arrow a +5 enhancement to hit and damage if the arrow already have it they just don't stack.
The AoMF wouldn't get a static bonus, but, hypothetically, would have Holy, Flaming, Shocking, and Frost. Or whatever. Things that the weapon itself doesn't have.
If I have Ascetic style with a waveblade, can I have a +10 blade (+5 enhancement, +5 other stuff) and +5 AoMF (with other abilities), and they all combine when I attack?
1) At what Caster Level is the spell cast? That of the weapon, or the original caster?
2) An Intensified Vampiric is cast by someone with the Wayang Spellhunter trait, making this spell only use a level 3 slot. Can this spell be store in the weapon, or does the spell still count as a level 4 spell?
3) Do any of the original caster's abilities bleed through into the spell? A crossblooded Orc/Draconic Sorcerer who stores some fire touch spell in...does it get +2 damage/die?
I want to say that 1) once the spell is stored, the weapon casts the spell. Using its own CL, with probably a min ability score modifier. That would be cool, cause it can up the CL of spells from wands. 2) I would think the spell can't be stored. 3) As one, I would say that the original caster no longer casts the spell, it's the weapon, so no.
1) Is an unchained monk automatically proficient with any weapon that has the versatile design modification, which adds it to the monk group?
2) Hypothetically, if a 5th level monk had Ascetic Style an Ascetic Form, can their chosen weapon be "Unarmed Strike", which then gives its bonus to all monk weapons, including other weapons that are modified as the previous question?
my first question is why? aside from it being a monk weapon, all you gain is that it now does 1d8, and if that's what you want, I suggest looking at the Nine-ring broadsword.
The crit profile, for a monk, and dealing more damage with power attack and wielding it two-handed.

Description
This fibrous powder is ground from bark harvested from the roots of trees growing across planar boundaries. When thrown in the air as part of casting a conjuration (summoning) spell, it grants the creatures summoned the advanced simple template. If the caster also expends one use of mythic power, the summoned creatures gain DR 5/epic, or DR 10/epic if they have at least 11 HD. Lesser root affects conjuration (summoning) spells up to 3rd level, normal root conjuration (summoning) spells up to 6th level, and greater root any conjuration (summoning) spell.
