X / day SL abilities


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

In the case of a monster with multiple spell-like abilities, it is listed like so:

3/day, Speak With Molluscs, Ray of Tickling, Fog of Sparkles

My question is this: does that mean the monster can use EACH of its spell-like abilities 3/day? Or is it like a Sorceror in that they have 3 spell-like ability slots per day such that this monster could use Speak With Mollusks twice and Fog of Sparkles once and that's it for the day?

It means the monster can use those abilities 3/day each. So Speak with Molluscs 3/day, Ray of Tickling 3/day, and Fog of Sparkles 3/day.

This is what I thought but could not find reference where it specifically says so. I assumed it was just a convenient way of listing it. Thanks!

Jeraa is correct. Also, I really hope those are homebrew spells which get frequent use.


Multiple Spell-like abilities

3/day, Speak With Molluscs, Ray of Tickling, Fog of Sparkles

This is meant to be read similar to a sorcerer's spell listing.
The creature has 3 uses per day from the following; Speak With Molluscs, Ray of Tickling, Fog of Sparkles.
So it could cast 2 Rays of Tickling and a Fog of Sparkles and be done for the day.

Given that this is a huge change that hasn't made it into a faq, I think we can safely dismiss it as a brain fart.
