PFS Legal Searing Flesh
Source Occult Adventures pg. 17
Element fire; Type defense (Su); Level —; Burn 0
Your body becomes painfully hot. Whenever a creature hits you with a natural attack or an unarmed strike, that creature takes 1 point of fire damage per 4 kineticist levels you possess (minimum 1 point of fire damage). A creature in a grapple with you takes double this amount of damage at the end of each of its turns. Weapons that strike you also take this damage, though the damage is unlikely to penetrate the weapon’s hardness.[u] By accepting 1 point of burn, you can increase this damage by 1 point per 4 kineticist levels you possess until the next time your burn is removed. You can increase the damage in this way up to seven times.[/u]
Whenever you accept burn while using a fire wild talent, the surging flame causes your searing flesh to deal double its current amount of damage for 1 round (a creature in a grapple with you takes a total of four times as much damage as normal). You can dismiss or restore this effect as an immediate action.
I am confused on what this means exactly. Do I spend one burn to gain level*4 damage shield, and i can do that up to 7 times? Or do I spend one burn PER 4 levels and can do that 7 times? I am level 4, what is the maximum damage shield I can have now, for how much burn spent?
And thats the part ic an do up to 7 times if i wanted to? Trying to figure out when i might reliably be able to brek weapons and such that hit me
okay, cool, thanks for straightening it out!
remmber that when items take energy damage they first take only half then apply hardness, so when breaking a steel sword (hardness 10) it takes 22 fire damage to inflict a misly 1 point of damage to it. (22/2=11 -10 hardness = 1)
Yea but daggers,clubs etc will break much easier
clubs and spears etc maybe, still half damage before hardness. daggers are made of steel so good luck with that.
