It's an untyped bonus. Which means the following.

It stacks with everything else.

You can't design a magic item with it.

Untyped bonuses only don't stack with the same effect -- you can't cast Enhance Blah spell twice on yourself to receive double the benefit.

The Wisdom-based bonus is a Wisdom bonus (in the same sense that ordinary characters get their Dexterity bonus to AC, but note that it works considerably differently).

The level-based bonus is untyped.


Thanks but that brings me to my follow up question..... Would the bonus apply if you were say a synthesist/monk since you keep your mental scores, yes this is a synthesist question I didn't want to wait in the answer cue over in the 849 post thread


face palm..... nvm took awhile to sink in thanks everyone!
