Punitive Transformation DC

[kdlsmith]

I have a 7th level Waves Oracle. I took Punitive Transformation (kicking myself for not taking Water Format instead).

Ability states: You can transform an opponent into a harmless animal as if using baleful polymorph. This transformation lasts 1 round per oracle level. Transforming another creature causes the first to immediately revert to normal. You may use this ability a number of times per day equal to your Charisma modifier. You must be at least 7th level before selecting this revelation.

Baleful Polymorph is a 5th level spell. What is the Fort DC?

10 + Level + Cha = 10+5+5 or
10 + Effective Level + Cha= 10+4+5

Thanks

I think it would be neither of these. Save DC for revelations is normally 10 + 1/2 Oracle level + Cha mod. Which in your case is 10+3+5=18.

And why are you kicking yourself? It's one of the most awesome revelations in that mystery, I think. Early access to a powerful save or "die" effect that scales in DC with your level.

Punitive Transformation is Supernatural, not Spell-like, so the DC is 10 + 1/2 Oracle level + Cha.

Ah, I forgot about that.

Thanx both Corlindale and mplindustries.

As to why I should have taken Water Form: because my AC is so high, my GM has started sending Fighter/Rogues at us. The immunity to sneak atk would have been better than the 3 failed polymorphs.

Oh well, I'll just wait until my next mystery and get it then.

It's supernatural, which means that it bypasses SR, however, the text says like Baleful Polymorph. Does SR apply to Punitive Transformation?
