#1 is correct.

"Many use-activated items are objects that a character wears. Continually functioning items, such as a cloak of resistance or a headband of intellect, are practically always items that one wears. A few, such as a pearl of power, must simply be in the character’s possession (on his person, not at...

Yes, you are.

This. Personally, whenever I'm presented with a riddle in a D&D game, I get up from the table, tell everyone else to call me back over when they're done, and walk away, because I hate hate HATE dealing with riddles. I get that some people think they're awesome, and you folks are welcome to...

I think you made the right call. Sundering is a combat maneuver that calls for a CMB vs. CMD check because your opponent is able to react to your attack. I don't think the spear-user can do that in this situation, where he is blindly jabbing a spear through a hole in a door. In that situation...

I generally roll in the open, and it doesn't bother me if the players can extrapolate from that what their opponents' stats are. (Frankly, if they're THAT interested in what's happening, I consider it a good thing. Also, I'm strongly opposed to fudging, and rolling in the open greatly reduces...

Right. You're not actually concealed (everyone can see you as plain as day), but since you're not actually there where everyone is seeing you, you're effectively invisible. In short, you're overthinking it. It functions like concealment, except that everyone can automatically pinpoint what...

I agree with Starfox. Righteous might is a spell that changes your size, and thus has no effect at all on a polymorphed creature.

Yes. The Ready action rules are a specific exception to the general rules. Sure, it's really quite simple. If you weren't intended to be able to "split" your turn using the Ready action, Readying wouldn't be a standard action, it would be a full-round action. There's absolutely no reason for it...

I'm not certain which rules you're referring to, and I don't mean to quibble, but my PHB has a section titled "Concealment" (page 152) that seems to include all of the pertinent rules.

One last thought... The deed also says: "If one or more rolls are critical threats, she confirms the critical once using her highest base attack bonus –5. For each critical threat beyond the first, she reduces this penalty by 1 (to a maximum of 0)." Since the maximum number of attack rolls a...

My counterargument is that it says: "She makes the attack rolls in order from highest bonus to lowest, as if she were making a full attack." That indicates to me that any feats or abilities that can be used when making a full attack (such as Rapid Shot) can be used when making a Dead Shot, as if...

Invisibility is just one way of gaining total concealment. In other words, if I'm invisible to you, I have total concealment from you...but having total concealment from you doesn't necessarily mean I'm invisible.

No, I wouldn't. As I read it, the deed says you roll your attacks as if you were making a full attack...so if you are full attacking with a BAB of, say, +8/+3, you roll those two attacks. If the same gunslinger full attacks using Rapid Shot, she makes three attack rolls (at +6/+6/+1). That seems...

Linguistics skill, pages 101-102. Not a complete list of all the languages in the game, actually. Other rules sources add many more. But the basic list, yes.
