Inquisitors and Swap Places


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I was looking through the feats and character options for the Inquisitor (my first organized play character) and I was wondering about the use of Swap Places feat with the Solo Tactics class feature of Inquisitor. Now the class feature says that the allies do not gain any benefit of the teamwork feats (as they do not have them), so I was wondering if that complicated the use of Swap Places for the Inquisitor.

Sadly I think it means you occupy their square. I believe it is perfectly legal for you to occupy their square since they are allies.

More of you just kinda jump over to where he is, he might be pissed about it though haha


i believe it means that swap positions is a no go, at all, unless the other character also has the feat.

At 3rd level, all of the inquisitor’s allies are treated as if they possessed the same teamwork feats as the inquisitor for the purpose of determining whether the inquisitor receives a bonus from her teamwork feats. Her allies do not receive any bonuses from these feats unless they actually possess the feats themselves. The allies’ positioning and actions must still meet the prerequisites listed in the teamwork feat for the inquisitor to receive the listed bonus.

you cannot end you turn in an ally's space, so thats a no go

Ending Your Movement: You can't end your movement in the same square as another creature unless it is helpless.


Sounds like you can use it if they are helpless, or are three size categories larger than you or tiny or smaller. So if you have a pixie for a friend you are set!


Alright, the other teamwork feats were much more straightforward, but this one in particular was a bit confusing. Thank you for the feedback.
