I apologize if the answer to this is effectively right in front of my eyes and I cannot see it while perusing the rules. My question is can the elemental damage from an Eidolon's Energy Attacks evolution be combined with something like an Amulet of Mighty Fists (insert energy type here) to deal 2d6 points of selected energy damage or would such a pairing still only result in 1d6 points of selected energy damage if the same type is selected? Thanks.
I know that Paizo makes the pdf for Pathfinder/Pathfinder Society play, and I have seen more than a few of them used. Likewise, I have seen many last minute, hastily written out on a piece of scrap paper or note card tent. Most of these seem to work. I like for people to use table tents because: a) I often forget who is playing what character (I really like for players to have them when I'm judging), and b)it helps me learn player names (always a plus at a convention where I may judge/play with over twenty different people in a weekend). I have done a few blog posts about the table tent (the most recent and relevant one here), but I am curious if there are any other players out there who have taken to making their own personalized or fill-it-in-yourself tents for Pathfinder play. Similarly, are there players out there who find the table tent conceit that is unnecessary? I'm clearly in favor of them (I like being able to modify the ones for my characters as I see fit, but if I didn't I'd probably go with Dragonfire Signs tents for my PFS characters. Then again, that could get rather costly. Anyway, interested in other people's take on table tents.
So I have a long ramble as to my desires to build an Oracle at my blog (there are pictures, too). But I can probably do I more focused presentation here. I am hoping to build something other than a Cleric that can fulfill a party's need for healing. That is the primary reason why Oracle looks appealing, but there are also some features to the class that seem to fit well with crafting one as a type of fighting (Tian) mystic. However, I cannot wrap my head around how to make an Oracle who fights. The Flame and Life mysteries seem to lend themselves to substituting (in a way) for the blaster mage or the heal-bot Cleric, but still maintain a good deal of flexibility. Maybe part of my problem is a desire to make the character Tian (or at least from the Empire). I keep trying to find a way to -- at some point -- wield some cool Eastern weapon to add to the flavor. At any rate, this is the most viable option that I have been able to manage, and I am of the opinion that it is suboptimal to the degree that it could potentially be a drag on the party. (It is also entirely possible that there are errors in the creation of this character.) Male Gnome
AC: 18 (Touch AC: 14) (Flat-Footed AC: 15)

So this character can hit a little (+4 to hit, 1d8 damage with the scarf), has a decent AC for a starting PC, and (from a RP perspective) gets to be a linguist. The limited vision melee fighter has some appeal, and it seems to blend in well with how I imagine Tian culture. As for being a gnome, I have avoided playing 'smalls' all of my life. But Pathfinder has found a way to make the gnome interesting to me. I just don't know if making this kind a character a gnome makes any sense. So, to any and all who have a better way to make an Oracle who can go into combat (or suggest a good progression for one), I am open to all kinds of advice and feedback. Thanks,
