CMB calculation for animal companions.

[davypi]

A friend of mine has a PDF copy of a Paizo product called Player Character Folio. Page 12 of the PDF is a character sheet specifically for Animal Companions. About 2/3rds down the page on the left is a CMB calculation:

10 + BAB + STR + Size + Misc

I cannot find anything in the core rulebook that supports animal companions getting a ten point bonus to their CMB mod. A google search does not support this either and in fact other threads seem to confirm that companions compute CMB the same as a regular PC. However, the error is not mentioned in the errata for the product either nor can I find a thread pointing out this discrepancy.

Which is the correct calculation? If there is a +10 to this, can you please provide a source?

Errata is only issued if the product has been reprinted and the error corrected.

Perhaps you're the first person to discover it.

It's clearly a typo. The creator probably got it confused with CMD.

No my character folio has the same thing in it and I got mine recently

And, if you check, you would probably find that the Character Folio has not been reprinted or that your copy is an early printing.

Same reason I checked, when I bought my CRB recently, to make sure it showed as 6th printing inside, so I wouldn't have to worry about Errata until the 7th printing comes out...

Looks like there may have been a reprint, but it was announced a week before this error was mentioned in this thread..
