Your ancestors have traveled from place to place for generations, never content to settle down. You gain two additional languages of your choice, chosen from among the common and uncommon languages available to you, and every time you take the Multilingual feat, you gain another new language.

Gnome Polyglot

Gnome Polyglot wrote:

Your extensive travels, curiosity, and love of learning help you to learn languages quickly. You learn three new languages, chosen from common languages and uncommon languages you have access to. These languages take the same form (signed or spoken) as your other languages. When you select the Multilingual feat, you learn three new languages instead of two.

Multilingual

You easily pick up new languages. You learn two new languages, chosen from common languages, uncommon languages, and any others you have access to. You learn an additional language if you are or become a master in Society and again if you are or become legendary.

Special: You can select this feat multiple times. Each time, you learn additional languages.

If you have both, how many languages each Multilingual feat gives you ( not counting the ones from Master/Legendary)

Base 2
Turns to 3 with Gnome Polyglot
Adds 1 from Halfling Nomadic
Total 4.

The Gnome Feat replaces 2 with 3, and the Halfling Feat adds +1, so you'd learn 4.

If both Feats instead replaced 2 with 3, there'd be no point in taking them together.

I never know anymore, everything can fall on the "too good to be true", not intended by RAI, or even Duplicated effects

This one seems pretty clear. Or, well, I mean, to me, at least. Most of PF2 is pretty well handled. There's just a handful of blockbuster ambiguities that resurface regularly that give some the impression that everything else is dysfunctional.

My new standard is "ok but is it broken for the cost"

You've spent
- Your Heritage
- A General Feat @ lvl 3(Adopted Ancestry)
- Either your 5th level Ancestry feat or retraining to retrain your level 1 ancestry feat.
- N skill feats on multilingual

You get
- 5 languages
- 2*N extra languages via Multilingual

So you spend a bunch of feats to be able to understand and speak most if not all non-rare languages.

Meanwhile every arcane, divine, and occult caster can take Comprehend Language at 3rd level.

So this seems fine.

Cultural Adaptability - Halfling 5
During your adventures, you've honed your ability to adapt to the culture of the predominant ancestry around you. You gain the Adopted Ancestry general feat, and you also gain one 1st-level ancestry feat from the ancestry you chose for the Adopted Ancestry feat.

Ancestry feats
1 Folksy Patter
5 Cultural Adaptability -> Adopted Ancestry Gnome + Gnome Polyglot
9 Multitalented ( Druid Dedication )

General Feats:
3 Adopted Ancestry Human

Class feats:
2 Linguist Dedication

Skill feats:
2 Sign Language
4 Read Lips

Multilingual:
Background Emissary
Linguist dedication 2x

So you get:
3 starting: Common, Halfling, Regional language
1 from Druid Dedication: Druidic
2 Nomadic Halfling
2 Gnome Polyglot

There is 72 languages listed
If you get 8 Multilingual again you get every language plus 2 more
doable by any class since you have enough skill feats (6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20).

Just a proof of concept.
Im building an wizard enchanter and many spells have a language trait

Gang, it only takes one feat to learn all the languages.
And being a Monk.
Level 14.
:)

Of all the classes to get this...which is probably why it's fine for it to be so absolute. Well except for that reading part.
Just last night was outlining a Monk who would have that slot open when I realized his 8 Cha wasn't going to be doing much with that!
