Spirit Bond (Ex): At 4th level, instead of forming a bond

with his hunting companions or an animal companion,
the spirit ranger forms a bond with the spirits of nature
themselves. Each day, as long as he is within one of his
favored terrains, the ranger can cast augury (Pathfinder
RPG Core Rulebook 245) as a spell-like ability with a caster
level equal to his ranger level. In addition, he can call
upon these spirits to cast any one ranger spell that he is
capable of casting, without having to prepare the spell. At
8th level, and every four levels thereafter, he can cast an
additional spell in this way. This replaces hunter’s bond.

So the spirit ranger has to be in his favored terrain to use the augury ability. However, does that same restriction apply to the next ability in the paragraph?

I can see an argument both ways.

What say the boards?

Well Talon, personally I feel that since the second ability (to spontaneously cast any spell) is in a separate sentence, the favored terrain requirement doesn't apply.


I was wondering the same thing when I read it and came to the same conclusion as you. But I can see arguments for the other side as well
