Am I suppose to have piercing???Breath Weapon
Your eidolon has a powerful breath weapon. When your
eidolon gains this ability, choose a damage type from
among acid, cold, electricity, fire, piercing, or poison,
and choose whether the area is a 60-foot line or a 30-
Depends? Do you like jewelry? ;)

Oh right. Five-elements, metal, that's what it comes from isn't it?
Iirc I think its from Wood element, basically your breath weapon is wood splinters at that point.
EDIT: Apparently Crystal Dragons exist now, missed that one.
I was reading through the Playtest PDF, and I noticed what I'm pretty sure is just a formatting issue, but I didn't see anyone mentioning it:
It has the trait matching the damage type.
Unless I missed something, I don't think Piercing is a creature trait.

I mean, why can't it be?
The creature gains the 'Piercing' trait, which by default has no rules associated with it.
There's likely not going to be much interaction with it, but it doesn't break anything in and of itself.
Like I said, formatting. It's most likely meant to be the Earth trait.
But what do I know? I don't do 2e, just was curious as to how they treated the magus and summoner.
Pretty sure it's just bad sentence formatting. The Breath Weapon gains the Piercing trait. The eidolon gains no additional trait.
Still, having an eidolon that you just throw at an enemy for piercing damage is amusing
"This is my pet dragon, Spike."
I noticed that early on, and no, I don't think it's a formatting thing. Traditionly the dragons have the same subtype as their breath and I think it's so if there's an effect that effects a fire being differently or the like it works on your pet.
The Piercing Creature Trait just doesn't have any interactions at the moment.
