looking for a spell

hey hivemind...i'm looking for a spell that creates a flanking buddy...but it's not able to be targeted. am i delusional? it's low level IIRC...I thought it was false flanker or something similar...can someone lend a guy a hand?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Shifting shadows turns all creatures in the area into potential flankers for every other creature.

Twilight knife creates a blade of force that can flank targets and cannot be attacked.

But I think you might mean, spiritual ally which can attack and flank from its space. It can be attacked, but as a construct of force its pretty much impervious to physical attacks.


just use google search on d20pfsrd then choose "spells" OR use AoN Custom Spell Search.
AoN search on "flank" turns up about 20 spells.
> Unwitting Ally:E0 is a 1 round foe to ally for flanking. Probably the best one.
> Shifting Shadows:K3 is an AoE flanking assist.
I'd use Azothath's Homebrew spell: Twilight Knife:K2 ;^)

False Flanker works like you remember, but it is a Mesmerist trick rather than a spell:

...

False Flanker(Occult Adventures pg. 40): A duplicate of the mesmerist appears momentarily, as though he were fighting in tandem with the subject. The mesmerist can trigger this trick when the subject moves into or begins her turn in a square where she threatens an enemy. An illusory duplicate of the mesmerist appears in any unoccupied space adjacent to that enemy. This duplicate counts as threatening the enemy for the purposes of determining flanking, but can’t actually make attacks. The duplicate disappears at the end of the turn during which the trick is triggered. This is an illusion (figment) effect, and a creature that interacts with the false flanker can attempt a saving throw to disbelieve the effect.

Azothath's Homebrew spell: Nitwitting Allies:E2 spell
