Strange question- multiclassed Bloodrager.


Rules Questions


I'm going to s block all the relevant text that I've found before asking my question.

Spoiler:
Parent Classes: Each one of the following classes lists two classes that it draws upon to form the basis of its theme. While a character can multiclass with these parent classes, this usually results in redundant abilities. Such abilities don't stack unless specified. If a class feature allows the character to make a one-time choice (such as a bloodline), that choice must match similar choices made by the parent classes and vice-versa (such as selecting the same bloodline). The new classes presented here are all hybrids of two existing core or base classes.

Spoiler:
At 1st level, a bloodrager can bloodrage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + his Constitution modifier. At each level after 1st, he can bloodrage for 2 additional rounds per day.

A bloodrager can enter a bloodrage as a free action. While in a bloodrage, a bloodrager gains a +4 morale bonus to his Strength and Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, he takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants the bloodrager 2 hit points per Hit Die, but these disappear when the bloodrage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While bloodraging, a bloodrager cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.

Bloodrage counts as the barbarian's rage class feature for the purpose of feat prerequisites, feat abilities, magic item abilities, and spell effects.

Spoiler:
Starting at 1st level, a barbarian can rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 4 + her Constitution modifier. At each level after 1st, she can rage for 2 additional rounds.

While in rage, a barbarian gains a +4 morale bonus to her Strength and Constitution, as well as a +2 morale bonus on Will saves. In addition, she takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class. The increase to Constitution grants the barbarian 2 hit points per Hit Dice, but these disappear when the rage ends and are not lost first like temporary hit points. While in rage, a barbarian cannot use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration.

But wait, there's more!

Spoiler:
When an urban barbarian rages, instead of making a normal rage she may apply a +4 morale bonus to her Strength, Dexterity, or Constitution. This bonus increases to +6 when she gains greater rage and +8 when she gains mighty rage. She may apply the full bonus to one ability score or may split the bonus between several scores in increments of +2. When using a controlled rage, an urban barbarian gains no bonus on Will saves, takes no penalties to AC, and can still use Intelligence-, Dexterity-, and Charisma-based skills. This ability otherwise follows the normal rules for rage.

A multiclassed Bloodrager/Barbarian has two separate abilities, bloodrage and rage. They do not stack, and such a character would have two 'pools' of variant rage.

An Urban Barbarian gains the ability to rage and gain a +4 morale bonus to Dexterity. Is there any reason a bloodrager/(urban) barbarian can't use both bloodrage and controlled rage at the same time?


I dont see any reason but he will come out of it exhausted and he wont have alot of rounds. I cannot think of a good reason to multiclassing the two. But if some one came to me with a character that did i wouldent stop this move.
If there are some unknown house rules in play that May change things.

It can be done, you just need to keep the track of the two separate pools of round.

But you are going to end up Exhausted at the end of the two "rages", since the two Fatigue conditions stack into Exhausted condition.

Dark Archive

I don't see why not, you would obviously be using rounds from both abilities at once, and morale bonuses don't stack with each other, so you couldn't superboost your STR or CON.


At higher level with an additional dip into lame oracle there is nothing stopping you.
