Sacred and Profane stacking to an Inquisitor of Asmodeus


Advice

Silver Crusade RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16

In another thread, I started discussion of my next character, but I wanted some some specific advice regarding Sacred Bonuses e good guys in the party will grant, and what Profane bonuses I could grant to stack with them, both for myself, and for party members.

Thanks

I doubt that sacred and profane bonuses stack, That doesn't seem to make much sense to me.

I suppose I would request a citation, since they are clearly differently named bonuses.

Don't have a citation, but the idea that they would stack is rather silly, If you are in PFS then they would probably stack, unless I missed the citation that they don't, If this isn't PFS, ask your GM because a very powerful force of evil (profane bonus) and very powerful force of good (sacred bonus) not cancelling eachother out and just having the more powerful bonus apply doesn't make much sense. Looking for a reference...


I don't see anything calling out both of those types, only that Sacred doesn't stack with other Sacred bonuses & Profane doesn't stack with other profanes either, even in the old 3.5 srd. Imo, they'd stack since they are different types of bonuses. Similar yes, but not the same.

You're gaining power from both evil and good, the powers aren't mutually exclusive. Evil spells, like Infernal Healing, don't preclude other good spells from healing you. As long as they're from different sources(ie, different class features/spells) I don't see why they wouldn't.

Meh, can't find anything saying sacred and profane don't stack, so I guess they do, still find this a tad unusual.

Ok, so back to the question!

What sacred and profane sources are there?

I'd be an Inquisitor providing profane bonuses, what spells or abilities?

What sacred bonuses are there that other folks can be putting out?

I had hoped something like Bless would give sacred/profane bonuses, but it gives Morale.
