Halfling Paladin/Rogue riding a wardog (animal companion). Both have Pack Flanking, If they were to charge an opponent, would the attacks from the Halfling get the flanking bonus, and thusly qualify for Sneak Attack Damage. What about just fighting while mounted, would the same apply?
So I have a gestalt campaign coming up and I'm thinking about playing a caster (non weapon based character) but action economy keeps limiting. something like a barbarian monk gets to rage and have huge damage on a flurry, magus rogues can do spell combat and sneak attack at the same time, but a wizard cleric basically just has a tons of spell choices, but it still stuck at 1 spell per turn. Does anyone have any clue how to make a pure gestalt caster work? quicken spell uses a slot 4 levels higher, which isn't practical. Magical lineage helps, but just for a single spell, I know there's a prestige class that reduces the level cost, but only once you hit 15th level, and mystic theurge isn't a legal class for gestalt. So is there something out there that I am missing?
In our last game session, the cleric created some undead, which, using the command undead feat, he ordered to arm themselves with weapons laying about. unknown to the cleric the weapons were intelligent and attempted to take control of the undead. How do you go about determining who winds up in control of the undead?
The rogue in our current campaign has a rope of climbing. the party was in a room with some floating islands in it. she was hiding under one of the island and wanted to command the rope of climbing to tie to the tail of a monster standing on the island above her and then use the rope to swing out and onto another island. the monster failed it's perception check to see the stealthy rogue. Questions: 1. Can Rope of Climbing be used in this manner? 2. Is there a check of any kind beyond the obvious acrobatics to make the swing? (i.e. A grapple check etc. to see if the rope can be tied onto the monster?) thanks
Relevant Text: School Understanding: The arcanist can select one arcane school from any of the schools available to a character with the arcane school wizard class feature, but does not have to select any opposition schools. The arcanist gains one ability of that arcane school as though she were a 1st-level wizard, using her Charisma modifier in place of her Intelligence modifier for this ability. The ability must be one gained at 1st level and is limited in its use per day to 3 + the arcanist's Charisma modifier. As a swift action, the arcanist can expend 1 point from her arcane reservoir to bolster her understanding, allowing her to treat her arcanist level as her wizard level for the purpose of using this ability for a number of rounds equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 1). During this time, she also gains use of the other ability gained at 1st level for her selected school. She does not gain any other abilities when using this exploit in this way, such as those gained at 8th level. If the arcanist already has an arcane school (or gains one later), taking this exploit instead allows her arcanist levels to stack with the levels of the class that granted the arcane school when determining the powers and abilities of her arcane school. Transmutation School
Question: So the way I understand it is that by grabbing transmutation school I get +1 to a physical attribute always since its static. But by spending 1 point from my reservoir what happens? do I gain a +4 more to that attribute and then +5 to another? I have built this character in HeroLab and it only applies the +1, no way to give it the higher bonus |
