Battle Medicine for medicine

Battle Medicine doesn't have Healers Tools as a prerequisite, so as far as I can tell, it doesn't need them at all.


If you're meant to get +4 against ranged attacks from Take Cover while prone, it really should be added to the Take Cover rules.


Thanks for the reply.

I understand summing the bonuses and penalties to calculate AC.

You say that Prone gives a +4 circumstance bonus to AC against ranged. Where do you find that? That isn't what the Prone condition says in the CRB (p.621). The mention of +4 is talking about when you perform the basic action Take Cover, but under the Take Cover rules, you only get +2.


I've found a discrepancy between the Prone condition and the Take Cover basic action.

Prone:
You can Take Cover while prone to hunker down and gain cover against ranged attacks, even if you don’t have an object to get behind, gaining a +4 circumstance bonus to AC against ranged attacks (but you remain flat-footed).

Take Cover:
If you would have standard cover, you instead gain greater cover, which provides a +4 circumstance bonus [...]. Otherwise, you gain the benefits of standard cover (a +2 circumstance bonus instead).

My confusion is that as far as the description for Take Cover is concerned, when doing it while Prone, you would get the +2 circumstance bonus, which would cancel out the -2 from being flat-footed, but that's it. It doesn't mention a +4 bonus to AC from ranged attacks, whereas the description for Prone makes it sound like it should.

So which is the correct one?

Hello,

In order to craft a SCROLL OF <SPELL_NAME>, does the PC need a formula for that specific scroll with that particular spell? Or is the formula perhaps a formula for just that level of scroll?
