A169:
Quote
Attacking on a Charge: After moving, you may make a single melee attack. You get a +2 bonus on the attack roll. and take a –2 penalty to your AC until the start of your next turn.
I'm assuming the feat hasn't been updated since Races of Faerun... If it has, maybe the wording changed. However, you begin movement on your charge.  You provoke AoOs. Those attacks resolve. Any of those that qualify may provoke AoOs from Robilar's, etc. Once those are resolved, perhaps their Robilar's is triggered. Once all AoOs are resolved, (which happens at the end of movement) you make ONE single melee attack (unless you have pounce, in which case you make more). That single attack (and only that one, even if you have pounce) gains a +2 unnamed bonus on the attack roll.  After that, you take a -2 unnamed penalty to your armor class until your next turn begins. (This -2 becomes minor if you have an ally that can use White Raven Tactics who goes right after you Smile, Just as an aside).

Q173: What is the name of the ability that lets you transfer a weapon's enhancement bonus to your saves and what book is it in?

Note - I am not talking about Spellstrike which it only works for spells & spell-like abilities.

Q174: Is there anything that grants immunity from acid as a player that is cheap (gp or LA wise)?

Q 162: I seem to recall a ruling that Free and/or Swift actions never provoke AoO.  Is this true?
A 162: Almost never. There are exceptions, such as casting a quickened spell. Free actions, however, never provoke AoOs as far as I know.
No.  Quickened spells still provoke.
A 162 Yes, OS this is true. Agita, JaronK, shame on you !   No
Casting a quickened spell doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity.


Q 163: A friend of mine claims that Spells can only be used to SA once per casting and/or Round.  Is there actually any such ruling?
A 163 The rules for SA-ing with spells are presented in Complete Arcane. It's indeed once per casting.


Q 164: Why is Empowered healing better than Maximized healing?
A 164: Mostly because it's lower level, and the extra you get out of maximize instead of empower isn't enough to make the extra level worthwhile in most cases.
A 164 Indeed, it is strictly better for all but the lowest CLs. This is shown by the text of Empower Spell in the PHB (it's not in the SRD) : when applied to Magic Missile, you roll 1d4+1 then multiply by 1.5. So when I applied to CLW at CL 5: you get 1d8+5 (avg 9.5) multiplied by 1.5 (average ~14.25) while Maximize gives you 13.

A174

Half Dragon(+3LA)... several types give Immunity to Acid

Void Mind(+1LA) also gives immunity to Acid

A174 Half-Dragon is pretty much your best bet. IIRC Void Mind makes you thrall to a Mind Flayer...
Acidborn (Dun) doesn't work for typical PC types and doesn't have a LA, but maybe your DM will let you adapt it.

Make a custom 1/day wondrous item that activates Energy Immunity (6th level, Draconomicon) - it has a 24 hour duration.

Q170 Does a Warlock provoke an attack of opportunity when using Hideous Blow. It's a melee attack that is also a spell-like ability. The books seem vague about it. What do you say?
I'd say it probably follows the rule about touch spells - ie, you can cast it, move forward, and then attack with it, all in one round.  (See pages 140 and 141 of the PHB).  Yeah, I know Hideous Blow makes it not a touch attack, but as a DM, this would be a reasonable ruling, as the hideous blow effectively has a range of "touch" (being that you need to connect physically with the target.)

It does. Crystal Keep is wrong on this one. They switched LA/CR for it.

A 177: Yes, as long as you meet the requirements: flanking or FF.  Assuming you are meaning attack of opportunity.

Q 179

Are there any classes besides Hexblade that grant Mettle? If yes, what book are they from? There seems to be a Sohei class from OA, but I hear it sucks.
