just to make sure it's clear, when you go down with wounded 1, then come back up... you're wounded 2 now.

i read yours as "no, you can't because it's not a thrown weapon"
breith's and yurip's are "yes, because the shield has the thrown trait". which i agree with. it's still a ranged thrown weapon as well as a shield

Every check that has the attack trait counts toward your multiple attack penalty, including Strikes, spell attack rolls, certain skill actions like Shove, and many others

disrupt undead doesn't have a spell attack roll. it's save or die.

i'd personally have it negate the whole thing as well. that stream of violent wind is going to be surrounded by less violent but fast moving wind after all.

Constellation Blast PHOTON REVELATION

D When you’re fully photon-attuned, as a standard action, you
can create a momentary chain of bursting energy that burns
through the terrain. When you use this ability, you create
three 10-foot-radius bursts within 60 feet of you, each of
which cannot overlap and must be centered no more than
15 feet from the center of one other radius. You deal 5d6 fire
damage, plus 1d6 for every 2 solarian levels you have beyond
9th, to each creature in each radius. An affected creature can
attempt a Reflex save to take half damage. At 17th level, you
can create three, four, or five bursts when using this ability.

The wording here is difficult to read, at best.

At first glance, myself and several other people immediately thought "this is literally impossible, you can't have two 10ft radius blasts centered within 15 feet without overlap"
The only way to make it work is by really reading and rereading it, and potentially mangling the stuffing out of it by applying the 15 ft outer limit to half the radius, or 5 feet away from the center of a burst, effectively 20 feet away... which also make the lower limit, 20 feet away from the center of the burst due to no overlap. Basically, jump through hoops to even make it work.

Which brings me to...
Is this ability intended to fix the center of a blast 20 feet from the center of another blast, or is there supposed to be some leeway?
Is it supposed to instead be diameter rather than radius?

Apologies if i've rambled a bit.

Would this give me two single armor slots, or would this give me a merged two armor slot?

Your exocortex allows you to apply any one of the following drone mods to yourself as if you were a drone with that mod installed: armor slot, ...

Your drone gains an armor upgrade slot for an armor upgrade. If you do not already have an armor upgrade to install, you must purchase one separately. You can install the armor upgrade only if your drone has enough open upgrade slots to meet the upgrade’s requirements...

Androids have a single armor upgrade slot in their bodies. Regardless of whether androids are wearing physical armor, they can use this slot to install any one armor upgrade that could be installed into light armor.

Each suit of armor contains a certain number of upgrade slots. This represents the maximum number of times the armor can be modified while still functioning.

so would my body count as one piece of armor, and the exocortex count as another, or would both combined be considered a part of my body?
