gunslinger- question about Nimble, also Myrmidarch


Rules Questions

Shadow Lodge

This is probably a stupid question, but this is the first time I've played a gunslinger and I need to know this definitively.

Does the Dodge Bonus granted by Nimble get added to the CMD or just the regular AC?

Nimble itself just names the AC: "Starting at 2nd level, a gunslinger gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC while wearing light or no armor."

So I'm hesitant to add it to CMD, though I think I probably should.

On Myrmidarch, the spells used for Ranged Spellstrike. Those can be touch spells, ranged touched, or both? The wording is a bit confusing.

The special size modifier for a creature's Combat Maneuver Defense is as follows: Fine –8, Diminutive –4, Tiny –2, Small –1, Medium +0, Large +1, Huge +2, Gargantuan +4, Colossal +8. Some feats and abilities grant a bonus to your CMD when resisting specific maneuvers. A creature can also add any circumstance, deflection, dodge, insight, luck, morale, profane, and sacred bonuses to AC to its CMD. Any penalties to a creature's AC also apply to its CMD. A flat-footed creature does not add its Dexterity bonus to its CMD.

It's a dodge bonus, so yes (unless you don't want to add it for whatever reason.)

Thank you so much!

Myrmidarch is ranged touch attacks.

Ranged Spellstrike (Su): At 4th level, a myrmidarch can use spellstrike to cast a single-target touch attack ranged spell and deliver it through a ranged weapon attack. Even if the spell can normally affect multiple targets, only a single missile, ray, or effect accompanies the attack.

Emphasis is mine.

"Touch Attack Ranged Spell" doesn't make that very clear, considering that Spellstrike is normally "Touch Attack" spells. But thank you. I'll make sure my spellbook is planned accordingly. o7
