Jolt: It doesn't exist!

1 person marked this as FAQ candidate.

Looking through the pre-made spellbooks in UM, one of them has a cantrip listed named jolt. After a thorough search of this book, I find that there is no such spell within its pages. This spellbook is the only mention of this spell, and I am angry! An electricity-based cantrip? I could totally get behind that! But no, they neglected to include it in the book.

NOTE: It is listed with an asterisk (*), suggesting that it is a new spell in this book, otherwise I would have wondered whether it was in the APG or not.

I heard it holds off the effects of fatigue... 8-P

Here's my obligatory mention of "Choose Fate"'s absence from the book as well. (I really wanna know what that spell does, dang it!)

Choose Fate is like the Noodle Incident from Calvin and Hobbes, it is so incredibly awesome and mind blowing sounding that by now paizo realizes that they can't actually put it into words because mere words could never match up to how awesome we can imagine it to be from that name. :)

Nice! I'm gonna tell that to my GM when I cast it. :D
