Hi guys...what happens in the following 3 situations?

1) One wizard in round 1 casts as a full round action "Summon monster I" which has a casting time of 1 round. When do the monsters appear (and act)? In round 2 (before the beginning of his next turn, so after all the allies and monsters after him have acted) or in the same round 1?
If in round 2, does he need to keep the concentration in case he gets damaged by an attack?

2) One wizards casts defensively a spell. He fails the concentraction check. What happens? Does he lose the spell? Does he get an attack of opportunity?

Thank you so much :)

So it's like an "unbeatable invisibility", but since you're still there you can be detected by tremorsense, bloodsense, and things like that...

Right?

1 person marked this as FAQ candidate.

So guys...the 20th level ninja's ability "Hidden Master"...how does it work?

Some people say that you can't be detected. Full stop. No matter what or how good your senses are.

Some people including me, think that since the text says "...as a standard action, cast greater invisibility on herself. While invisible in this way, she cannot be detected by any means, and not even invisibility purge, see invisibility, and true seeing can reveal her...", the ninja's ability is just a better version of Greater invisibility, which doesn't make you stop smelling, or doesn't makes you mass-less.

Who's right?

I know that Paizo will probably never release deities stats because they want them to be extremely powerful. And I agree with them when they say "Gods can't be killed by mortals, because it's just concept and this isn't COD xD", but what i was looking for, is a sort of escape clause in case a player wants to attack...let's say...Cayden Cailean.

Probably LazarX is right...the best thing to do is to rule the "fight" as an event where the player will implode just after Cayden's free action xD.

Since I am a perfectionist, I would anyway love to have a stat block to do this, but probably this is just a waste of time involving 3.0 material. :D

Hi guys, i am just curious to know how you would manage to create deities stats, without having to make big and tedious house-rulings.

I was thinking to just use regular class and racial hit dices, so i've deduced that it would be a good idea to divide deities in 4 main categories:

A)Nascent deities
B)Demigods
C)(Minor) Deities
D)Major deities

In order to make a comparison, i've looked in the tome of horrors: Lucifer has 51 HDs (39 class + 12 outsider HDs).
I think Lucifer could be considered somebody very borderline between being a Deity and a Major one.

So...depending on your experience and ideas, which kind of HDs range would you set for each of the categories above?

Well, what can i say?
Thank you guys :)

Let's say that i'm a 11th level wizard, and i cast Monstrous Physique I...

Do I keep my hit points?
OR
Do I get the final creature's hitpoints (corrected by eventually lowering the COS value reported in the Bestiary)?

I think it's not allowed, since the requirement of the total spell level, must be met before applying any single feat.
You can't apply feats in a particular order...they're applied all at the same time, and so you have to meet the Spell Perfection's requirement.

So guys, i've found 2 different interpretations to this feat:

Benefit: Pick one spell which you have the ability to cast. Whenever you cast that spell you may apply any one metamagic feat you have to that spell without affecting its level or casting time, as long as the total modified level of the spell does not use a spell slot above 9th level. In addition, if you have other feats which allow you to apply a set numerical bonus to any aspect of this spell (such as Spell Focus, Spell Penetration, Weapon Focus [ray], and so on), double the bonus granted by that feat when applied to this spell.

I'm not using any trait like, Magical lineage

-> Some say that you must calculate the spell slot before using the feat.
Example: Heal spell (6th level) + Quicken spell (+4) = 10th level slot, so the feat cannot be used with this combination of spell and feat.

-> Some say that the previous example works because, the limit is set just to avoid too many metamagic feats and that the resulting spell slot would still of 6th level, and this would allow you to apply more metamagic feat, until you have enough slots.

Who's wrong?
Can you make an example about the correct use of this feat?

This may looks stupid but it's a doubt which i need to fix.

Do monsters die at 0 hp, or at -COS?

That's very interesting...here it is:

Well guys, what can I say?
Thank you so much! You've been all very comprehensive.
This helped a lot :)

Hi guys, this week i'm gonna run as DM my first PFS scenario.
I'm very excited, but also very scared about making mistakes...
I'm not a novice...at all, but this is the first time for me in PFS as DM.

On the first pages of the scenario, i can find 3 paragraphs: a sort of introduction, a summary and Getting Started...all of them before Act One.

Getting started begins with a black text saying "Read the following to get the adventure underway", followed by a green text, describing Ambrus Valsin while speaking to the group of Pathfinders.

So, I'd say, i should never read the black lines to the players (unless they're making checks on "Knowledge something" [i.e.])...but apart from the summary which would be a colossal spoiler, the introduction written in black, looks very important and interesting, providing a lot of BG for the players.

The huge question is...what the hell do i have to read/tell to the players? :D
