First, can I even add Hosteling to a specific magic armor? (seems to me more of a GM permission issue, but if not, that kills this thread dead).
2nd, presuming the first, can I apply the Hosteling ability to Celestial PLATE armor (treated as medium) for use with my cavalier mount? The magic armor ability requires Heavy armor for an animal larger than the wearer (thus no light/medium armor or shields).
It'd be expensive anyway to do so (32,500), but situationally beneficial for getting through tight spaces in dungeons and teleportation and such.
I'm not against scrapping Celestial Armor period (I was leaning toward the chainmail though for the benefits of light armor not slowing me down), but yeah. Would that even be legal?
Not in PFS.
If it's a home game, talk to your GM.
It is, old school GM.
Thanks, I will. He tends to be fairly permissive, but I guess this one is a little munchkin.
I think the primary point of contention I want to be sure on was the "Treated as medium armor" vs plate being heavy armor for the hosteling to work. I'd have the same problem with making my own mithral armor.
Any clarification on what ISN'T legal in PFS? Is it the adding qualities to specific armors?
PFS doesn't allow making custom magic items. If it's listed in the book, usually you can have it, but if you have to make it yourself then you can't.
Celestial Plate Armor isn't legal in PFS, and upgrading named items isn't either. But in a home game? There are lots of options.
Thanks. Home game so yes, options, but options I'd have to run by my GM.
Might be cheaper to stock up on scrolls of Reduce Animal...especially if he doesn't allow custom magic armor. ;P
Glad I'm playing a Clevalier, so divine scrolls are an option.
