Warpriest Bonus Feat and Power Attack.


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

Hi. I understand there's some disagreement over wether or not a warpriest who takes Power Attack as one of their bonus feats can use their warpriest level to scale the feat, for example getting a -2 attack penalty and +6 2-handed damage at level 4 instead of level 6.
To clarify, the text involved is on page 62 of the Advanced Class Guide and states:
"The warpriest must meet the prerequisites for these feats, but he treats his warpriest level as his base attack bonus for these feats."
So the warpriest's level only applies to the prerequisite or also to the feat itself.
Has this been resolved?

No. Personally, I think it's for qualifying for bonus feats, as the bit about base attack bonus is in the same sentence immediately following prerequisites. The actual effects of the feat is based on your actual BAB.

The ACG's 1st printing is almost sold out, and (Erik Mona?) has stated that the 2nd printing will be thoroughly errata'd and clarified.

Expect this to be one of those clarifications.

To go off my own topic somewhat, is this something that gets modified in PDF downloads so I could just re-download a corrected version or does it usually require a sepatate purchase of the PDF?

They always send out notifications to those that purchased PDF's through Paizo if the PDF gets changed. So, if you bought the PDF, they'll let you know when the 2nd printing goes out, as they change the available PDF's to the most recent printings at that time.
