So I will be GMing Carrion Crown soon and one of my players wants to play a Drow who is disguised as a half-elf. I told him that it might be difficult because of the checks involved, both with NPCs and with the other players. Should I try to dissuade him from this? Can people give me some suggestions as far as how he should best go about this? If he fails the check, how will a Drow get by in Ustulav if he's found out? Thanks!

Please point me in the right direction if this has already been addressed.

I am part of a high-level PFS group who are now playing modules beyond 12th level. We've already played Academy of Secrets.

We were supposed to play Tomb of the Iron Medusa today but one of our players canceled at the last minute, leaving us with 3 players and a GM.

If this were a regular PFS scenario of 1-11, we could use a pregen as an NPC and keep it as a legal table. However, there appear to be no such allowances for high-level modules. Is this something that could be addressed in future editions of the Pathfinder Society Guide to Organized Play? If there is already a solution for us, can someone direct me to the source?

So I just purchased Celestial Armor for my Ranger's wolf animal companion, who has light armor proficiency and an Int of 3 so that's not an issue. However, according to the PFS FAQ, animal companions cannot use command words, so he could not activate the fly ability on the armor. Could my Ranger activate the command word for him if I wanted to use the fly ability?

I know this has been addressed before on the boards, but I cannot find a definitive answer regarding what item/magic item slots are available for an animal companion. Is there an official ruling on this anywhere or is it GM's discretion? Do we go by 3.5 rules?

I'm curious to know if there will be more sanctioned modules added any time in the near future, especially for 12+ play. I do hear people keep mentioning Moonscar something or other, but that is not yet on the list of sanctioned modules. When can we expect to receive a Chronicle for that and for any others?

I just picked up a flaming bow for my ranger, who also has the Clustered Shots feat. I have two questions:

1) Does the 1d6 fire damage apply to each arrow that hits, including the two arrows from manyshot?

2) With clustered shots, is the additional fire damage from the flaming bow added together along with the regular arrow damage before subtracting the damage reduction?

Thanks!

So I have been using Hero Lab for my ranger and it has been working great so far. However, when I became level 4 my animal companion (female eagle) reflected a level 2 status instead of level 1, which I believe she is supposed to be (Druid level -3). When I turned level 5, she is showing level 3 and is set to gain an ability point at the next level, although I think it should actually not be for another two levels. So...what it seems is that Hero Lab made a mistake and gave her an extra level. It also seems like some of her stats/abilities are off. Am I right on this? Is this a bug that Hero Lab needs to fix?

2 people marked this as FAQ candidate.

I just wanted to make sure I'm doing this right. I'm a 3rd level human ranger and spent two Prestige to buy some Oil of Flame Arrow (cost 750) to use on standard arrows. Since the spell works on up to 50 projectiles, I'm assuming I can use the Oil on up to 50 arrows as well, correct?

Also, what are the rules for the 1d6 extra damage when it comes to crits? Is it applied once or does it stack?
