Of course, that's only evidence for Animal Growth + level-based size increase not stacking, and not in any way counter-evidence to Gigantic Steed + Enlarge Person not stacking.
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Mysterious Stranger wrote:</div><blockquote>The FAQ you posted was about size increases stacking with effective size increase</blockquote><p>Before making such statements, you might want to read the FAQ in question more closely. The question asked was for "various effects that change my actual size, my effective size, and my damage dice". That <i>does</i> cover multiple non-virtual size changes, and thus so does the answer.
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Mysterious Stranger wrote:</div><blockquote>The body of the FAQ said, “As per the rules on size changes, size changes do not stack”. This indicates the FAQ is not changing or clarifying anything on that subject so what is written in the book still applies.</blockquote><p>We don't actually have rules on size changes in any of the general rules sections of the book, only rules-in-examples, which are quite often incomplete. What the FAQ references is an unwritten general rule that is now being explicitly spelled out. This is something FAQs do quite a lot, a good example being <a href="https://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9qwt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">this FAQ</a> making a general rule where there were only individual examples, without indicating that there is any actual change (because it was always intended like that, and the rules were written with that unwritten rule in mind).
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Mysterious Stranger wrote:</div><blockquote>The FAQ on the klar states that when used as a weapon it is considered a one-handed weapon that does slashing damage, not a shield. What the FAQ is stating is that putting the bashing enchantment on a klar does not increase the damage that the klar does as a weapon. A bashing klar can either do the bludgeoning damage of a shield 2 sizes larger or 1d6 of slashing damage. The damage of a light shield 2 sizes larger works out to be 1d6 so a bashing klar can do either 1d6 bludgeoning damage or 1d6 slashing damage. This has nothing to do with size increases stacking, this has to do with the fact the bashing enchantment does not work on the weapon portion of the klar. </blockquote><p>Nice essay. Utterly proven wrong by the use of the word "stack" in the FAQ, of course, but hey, keep telling yourself that "doesn’t stack" has nothing to do with stacking, if that makes you happy.Java Man wrote:The general rules for Druid Nature Bond in the CRB say: "Most animal companions increase in size when their druid reaches 4th or 7th level, depending on the companion."

<p>I posted the FAQ that says "size changes do not stack". It doesn't mention "magical" at all.</p>
<p>Yes, it says "As per the rules on size changes", making it derivate from the 'rule' (which is actually just in the Enlarge Person description) that only mentions "magical effects"... but we have an <a href="https://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1gg#v5748eaic9ut0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">FAQ</a> that calls out <a href="https://aonprd.com/EquipmentArmorDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Shield%20spikes" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">shield spike</a>'s virtual size increase as non-stacking, which can only be true if the aforementioned FAQ applies to it.</p>
<p>Also, that you started your argument with "The rules for stacking effects are listed under magic in the core rule book." should have shown you how nonsensical it is. If rules in the magic section wouldn't effect non-magical things, we wouldn't even have stacking rules for those!

The body of the FAQ said, “As per the rules on size changes, size changes do not stack”. This indicates the FAQ is not changing or clarifying anything on that subject so what is written in the book still applies. The only rules I have found under stacking are in the section on magic and it specifies Spells or magical effects.
<p>The FAQ on the klar states that when used as a weapon it is considered a one-handed weapon that does slashing damage, not a shield. What the FAQ is stating is that putting the bashing enchantment on a klar does not increase the damage that the klar does as a weapon. A bashing klar can either do the bludgeoning damage of a shield 2 sizes larger or 1d6 of slashing damage. The damage of a light shield 2 sizes larger works out to be 1d6 so a bashing klar can do either 1d6 bludgeoning damage or 1d6 slashing damage. This has nothing to do with size increases stacking, this has to do with the fact the bashing enchantment does not work on the weapon portion of the klar. </p>
<p>As far as I know this is the only place in the rules that stacking is brought up. If there is some other FAQ or parts of the rules I missed, that is fine, but otherwise I stand by my post. </p>
<p>This is like saying that animal growth does not work on an animal with the giant template. That template is designed to allow a GM to create a larger version of an animal that does not have a specific write up. So, if a GM is creating a land of giants setting where all the creatures are larger than normal it would not work on the giant raccoon but would work on the dire rate because it has a write up in the bestiaries.</p>Derklord wrote:Mysterious Stranger wrote:The rules for stacking effects are listed under magic in the core rule book.
