Sorry tried searching but did not see this aspect come up.
This is hopefully a simple question to get answered:
from APG36
"Whenever an order of the lion cavalier issues a challenge, he receives a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks made by the target of the challenge. This bonus increases +1 for every four levels the cavalier possesses"
(similar statements are made for other orders)
Reading that I would think at level 1 he gets +1 and then every four levels another +1... ie
1:+1, 5:+2, 9:+3, 13:+4; 17:+5
Although talking to someone else they assumed it meant
1:+1, 8:+2, 12:+3, 16:+4, 20:+5
This seems bizarre to me to have it so spread out at the beginning and the +5 only hitting on level 20.
A third suggestion has been voiced, but immediately rebuffed which was at 4 you were +2 (something I think is absolutely wrong); and that it will be one of above. Personally I think the top one of the two displayed.
Anyone got any thoughts/official ruling on how to read?
