[QUOTE="roguerouge, post: 4158656, member: 13855"] As a DM, my tie-breaker would be whether my perception of you was that you could over-shadow everyone else at the table, leading to unfun for one or two others. But you're playing a bard, so min-maxing that class in this way usually leads to more fun for everybody else, so I'd likely be lenient. In cases where it primarily affected your character, I'd likely be lenient too, especially if there were a druid or wizard in the party. To my mind, you use an instrument to make bardic music, whether it be your voice, body, or a musical instrument. I'd rather things make a lick of sense. It doesn't stack. Whichever number of temp hit points is bigger. Is it: Bonus goes to Fort saves and attack roles. Those are bonuses. Bonus hit dice are not bonuses to a roll. They're extra rolls. And no, you don't get an extra temp hit point. Unnamed bonuses stack unless a compelling narrative or game balance reason is provided otherwise. Haha... no. You stopped playing and the clock is ticking on the effect's ending. [/QUOTE]
