Transmutation Wizard and Arcane Discovery Idealize


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

Hi,

I just wanted to make sure I am reading the FAQ and other forum entries correct. Essentially, using the Enhancement SP Augment cannot be modified by the Idealized Arcane Discovery. Is that correct?

Augment (Sp): As a standard action, you can touch a creature and grant it either a +2 enhancement bonus to a single ability score of your choice or a +1 bonus to natural armor that stacks with any natural armor the creature might possess. At 10th level, the enhancement bonus to one ability score increases to +4. The natural armor bonus increases by +1 for every five wizard levels you possess, to a maximum of +5 at 20th level. This augmentation lasts a number of rounds equal to 1/2 your wizard level (minimum 1 round). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier.

Idealize (Su)

Prerequisite(s): Wizard 10

In your quest for self-perfection, you have discovered a way to further enhance yourself and others.

Benefit(s): When a transmutation spell you cast grants an enhancement bonus to an ability score, that bonus increases by 2. At 20th level, the bonus increases by 4.


Sounds right to me; Idealize only works with transmutation spells, Augment is not a spell. I haven't looked for the FAQ though---could you link to it?

This is in the FAQ? Surprising since it seems so clear cut.

Yes, it us pretty self-evident. However, I just wanted to make sure I did not miss anything regarding new rule

interpretations. Thank you.

I guess that means you were just mentioning the FAQ generally, not specifically in reference to anything regarding these two items? I got to wondering if there was a FAQ entry since I've been pretty big on transmuters lately. Not that it matters when you're the GM and you can rule however you want anyway, but still! :)
