Adventure's Armory and Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting from Pathfinder. Armory doesn't give the stats, but it does give the errata version. Eww PF  There's nothing wrong with PF. Unless you count the Ultimate Combat and Magic books. Q 260 A soulknife is considered a 1st level manifester if he has Hidden Talent, correct? Now what if he takes Practiced Manifester, or takes a level of an additional psionic class? Does he become a 5th level manifester with the former, and does he become a 2nd level manifester if he's say a soulknife 1/psion 1? As mentioned in the feat description, Practiced Manifester cannot increase the Manifester level above his Hit Dice. Unless he gained a level in something else, he'd still be a 1st level manifester in the first case. IN the case of soulknife 1/psion 1, I'm pretty sure the levels stack for determining Manifester level since both are psionic. |

Unless he gained a level in something else, he'd still be a 1st level manifester in the first case. IN the case of soulknife 1/psion 1, I'm pretty sure the levels stack for determining Manifester level since both are psionic. I was wondering because here's the scenario. Found a soulknife alternate class feature, that's been approved, where you give up your psychic strike at 3rd level for gaining power points as a spell point ranger/paladin variant and psychic warrior powers (1st to 5th) every four levels at -2 ML. Q 261 The soulknife already has Hidden Talent, so would that make him -1 ML instead? Q 262 Same soulknife. I'm not sure how to read it. It says that it can hold 5 gems. Now is this total between the two of them, or can they hold 10 each? It's third party from Dreamscarred. Mind Blade Gauntlets These gauntlets are made out of polished metal with intricate patterns surrounding a number of gemsettings, the foremost one being found on the topside of the palm where a crystal is found. When a psionic creature wears these gauntlets, they allow him to form a mind blade as if he had the Form Mind Blade feat featured in the The Mind Unveiled: Mind Blade Feats. If the wearer already can generate a personal mind blade (via Form Mind Blade or the soulknife class ability), they instead receive a +1 competence bonus to attack and damage rolls with their mind blade. The gemsettings allow for setting bladestones which modify the mind blade (see below), but a gauntlet can never have more than 5 bladestones. Weak metacreativity, ML 3rd, Craft Universal Item, crafter must have access to a mind blade, either via the feat or through a soulknife, Price: 8,000 gp (4,000 gp + 320 xp). |

Hidden Talent does not give a manifester level at all. If you have a manifester level from a class, then it uses that manifester level. Otherwise, you manifest it as though you had a manifester level of 1 (but you still don't actually have a a manifester level)
A262: Since the standard Mind Blade gauntlets (MIC) specifically say that you can wear two, you can have 10 crystals. However, each individual mind blade can only benefit from one gauntlet (whichever one it was manifested through).

I've always loved how gauntlets are plural, when really you can get away with just wearing one, some of the time, unless they specifically say you need two. |

Q255: anyone know of a handy spell or other ability that allows you to either transfer damage between 2 targets or lets someone take hits for someone else?
Empathic Transfer doesn't quite work since I want to transfer it between two people, say a handy undead and another PC, and keep myself out of it. I know there's the Torc of Heroic Sacrifice (MIC) and the feats from Drow of the Underdark, but something like a spell would be really handy for my party support necromancer. Thanks.
Share Pain and Shield Other? Thanks. Shield Other wasn't quite what I was looking for since it links the caster to the beneficiary, and I was looking for something that would let me set it up between two people (i.e., not including me). I though Share Pain was the same, but the last line gives me just what I was looking for. |

Q 264 I'm looking at some warlock builds, and I see that they have Ability Focus (Eldritch Blast). Why would you want to take that feat? There's no DC to save against.

Because it applies to all essences you use. The Essences are modification on the Eldritch Blast. |

Q 265
Is a Wall of Fire still put out by cold damage if you used Energy Substitution to make it deal cold damage?

A 265: Yes. Wall of Fire is put out because of the line in the spell that says "If any 5-foot length of wall takes 20 points of cold damage or more in 1 round, that length goes out. (Do not divide cold damage by 4, as normal for objects.)" Regardless of what kind of damage the wall is doing, that line remains.

Would a Cold-substituted Wall of Fire put itself out, then?

Does a Wall of Fire deal damage to itself? A better question: do oozes dissolve themselves with the acidic coating they're not immune to? |

Does a Wall of Fire deal damage to itself? I guess not. The spell description only talks about damaging creatures, not objects. The line about being put out implies that the wall is treated as an object. |

Q 266
So, recently it was mentioned to me that Action Points from Eberron can be used to apply Metamagic. I can not find this in the book? Can someone point out where this is stated in the book or was this just a house rule someone was mistaken about being in a book?

The Unearthed Arcana version of action points lets you do this. I don't think it extends to the Eberron variant. |

Q 267
Does a Dvati's innate telepathic communication between twins qualify it for taking the Mindsight feat and, if so, would the range for the feat be unlimited as well.

Is the Dvati telephatic ability on their special qualities block as such: Telepathy (Ex), Telepathy(Su), Telepathy Spell Like Ability? If yes, then per RAW, you do qualify. But, by RAI, this is intended for creatures with actual telepathy, that can communicate with every creature, independent of language (as per normal telepathy.). I, as a DM, and probably yours, would rule that you can qualify for the feat, but it would only work for your twin. So you could pinpoint him wherever he was (then immediately greater teleport there, if it's the case). |

Also, the dvati telepathy works across planar boundaries, regardless of distance across cosmologies. Does that mean they can sense every creature on every plane, everywhere? |
