Sorry, that's what I meant - it targets a touched weapon rather than turning into a "touch attack".

That's too bad, since Blade of Blood isn't a touch spell. With a regular touch attack the charge is held until you hit with an attack or scratch your nose.

For reference, Catfolk get +4 dex, +2 cha, +1 natural armour, and +10' speed and are LA +1. They are a very, very strong LA +1.

According to my PHB, the text is "It does not reveal illusions or ebable you to see through opaque objects". I believe that there's an implied "as mere illusions" after "It does not reveal illusions"; otherwise the spell could be used to defeat all illusions. I think that is too powerful to be...

Well, it becomes a bit better if your gestalt game allows "stacking feats" on one side of the gestalt. You could start off with a Bard//Swashbuckler, ignore Strength and do a DEX/INT/CHA priority order, giving you plenty of skills and decent damage at level 3. Then when you finish Swashbuckler...

Can, yes. They do not all have it.

These comparisons are very bad. Fly comparison: If you were stabbing the fly with a pin to make your wounds close, that would be a better example. Just tearing off the wings with tweezers isn't applicable as it doesn't gain the wielder of tweezers any benefit, plus it's a common image of the...

Barbarian//War Hulk I'm sure you can think of any number of excellent classes to fill up the prerequisites to War Hulk with, but that combination right there is what will give your Power Attacks serious, serious hurtage. [Edit: You have to be Large, though. For extra funtimes, build War Hulk...

No, it doesn't. You gain reach when you wield "a reach weapon sized for you". If you're medium, a small-sized spear is not a "reach weapon sized for you".

I think the more interesting question isn't "do these stack across gestalt?" but "should they be allowed on one side of the gestalt?". The feats are arguably like the prestige classes that combine two different classes, but just as arguably the results are rather weaker than such a prestige...

This is essentially the same issue as the Shadowdancer's HiPS, as Frank pointed out. There's been some previous threads regarding shadowdancers and darkvision. It's likely that those will contain all the arguments you'll see here.

Nice snark. I don't disagree with Hyp's interpretation of what the rules say. I just don't think it's the only interpretation.

I think the "two friendly characters" line is a legacy of nobody having thought of the Adaptable Flanker feat while writing the flanking rules. I think Adaptable Flanker should have been written much more clearly. I don't think the Sage is a reliable source of rule information. So from my point...

Yes. That's why I don't want to read it that way - not because you have said it repeatedly, but because it makes no sense whatsoever. And if it's a new class you run into the sticky issue of whether you start anew with 1st level Paladin abilities.

Let's say I read it that way. If so, and someone was advancing as a Paladin/Sorcerer, then as Fighter/Marshal and then wanted to switch to Paladin/Marshal, that would be fine, because that's a new class - not the "Paladin/Sorcerer" class at all, and hence the multiclassing restriction wasn't...

That quote cuts both ways, irdeggman. It doesn't say "other half of the class" or "other part of the amalgam". It says "no matter what the other class is". Which leads me to believe that it doesn't matter what the other class is with regards to multiclassing restrictions.

Heard around the gaming table: "Oh, these songs? They don't count against my daily limit. They're from last week. It's not like this campaign gives us any social encounters.

You asked who and why. I answered. I'm sorry if the answer is not to your liking - had that character been played any further, it would have been a better case (and a more extreme example on top of it). I thought the enhancement in question (Easy Travel) eliminated the speed reduction, the max...

Because, according to the rules in the PHB, having NPCs cast spells on you costs you money. A character with Vow of Poverty is forbidden from possessing material goods. Hence, a character with Vow of Poverty cannot afford to have NPCs cast spells on them. Before a campaign starts, all...

Yes, it does. And why are you limiting it to level 15? My character example was one example where I chose to buy Bracers of Armor rather than other armor for good reasons - these reasons become better the higher level the character is. Ah, I see. The MIC doesn't limit how many bonuses are on...
