Eldritch Heritage Charisma requirement


Rules Questions


Would the Sage and Empyreal bloodline modify the Cha requirement for Eldritch heritage into Int or Wis?

Nope, those only affect sorcerer abilities. The feats are not sorcerer abilities. If you take the feats and use them to get those bloodlines, then you will use the relevant stats for the abilities granted, but you still need Charisma to get the feats.

Actually no you won't. Those abilities are not gained with the eldritch heritage feats and therefore you will still use charisma for any ability gained with the eldritch heritage feats. Please note the abilities of these bloodlines still use charisma for all their powers specifically because of this. Without the arcana you would use charisma for their abilities -- since you don't have the arcana you too will use charisma for these abilities.


K, cause I was wondering if picking up a level of sorcerer and getting the Sage bloodline would let me pick up the feats without having to raise Cha for them.

Feats specifically say you cant use them for a bloodline you already have.

I think he meant using the feats to gain the powers of OTHER bloodlines, but without needing a high Charisma.


What Bascaria said, was hoping to pick up a level of sorcerer and get Sage. From there I could Eldritch Heritage more easily for another bloodline.

Ah. The feat asks for Charisma. The feat is not a sorcerer class feature so it would continue to use charisma.


and the powers granted through EH would use Cha as their main stat because they are granted by a feat, therefor are not Sorcerer class abilities, addn unaffected by Sage and Empyreal Arcana, correct?
