When implementing poison - should you include the poison stats in the item description?

That's probably a tad too specific to be posting about. Just a thought. Wouldnt want you to get autorejected for posting to avoid autorejection. Can you delete this thread?

Whether or not the spell gets deleted, think of it this way:

A magic item that duplicates a spell doesn't repeat the text of the spell.
One that gives darkvision doesn't repeat the description of darkvision.
One that gives orc ferocity doesn't repeat the description of orc ferocity.
One that gives the benefit of a feat doesn't repeat the feat description.

Items in the game assume you have the Core Rulebook and can look up stuff there.


Thanks gents.

Clark, apparently I can delete my post, but not the thread itself. So now you're both apparently replying to a mystery thread :)

Maybe a Paizo Staffer can edit the subject line..?

I flagged my reply, so hopefully an admin can nuke it from orbit :)

I'm ok with it how it is. My worry was the discussion it could have generated might have interfered with anonymity and been a problem. Now that its deleted, I'm not that worried. And the discussion (or more accurately the response from Sean) is very instructive. But its Paizo's call, not mine.


For some reason, this is actually showing in the general discussion....

Yeah, there's no reason to delete the thread. Submissions really are anonymous. Judges have no ability to find out who posted what, and those of us who do (Ross and me) have to jump through a bunch of hoops to do it. (And we can only do it at the office. Lots of hoops. Flaming hoops.)

Will there be video of this flaming hoop jumping?
