Unadulterated Loathing and material components.

[rlfhog3]

So here's the issue. Does Unadulterated Loathing require a material component or not? The spell description lists the spell as need verbal, somatic, and material components but no where does it list what the material component actually is. Is this typo on the devs part or did they forget to add in the material component when they were writing the material?

If a spell says it has a material component but doesn't list any specifics then the material component can be covered with the Eschew Materials feat or a spell component pouch. You only need to worry about material components that are specifically stated, such as those needed for Raise Dead and Wish.

As listed it has a material component without a listed cost. The actual component is meaningless unless you actually ignore the pouch and catalog EVERY component...

If for some unknown reason you MUST know what the free with pouch component is, talk with your DM and just make one up. 99.9% of the time, it's just going to be fluff anyway.

Now it IS possible that it mistakenly has a material component as it's opposite, reckless infatuation, doesn't have one. It doesn't seem to be a problem even if it is a mistake as it's been out since 2011 and it remains unaltered.
