Q73: Is Factotum 1 + Able Learner an actual good splash?
It's decent for a skillmonkey. The entry to chameleon is probably the best thing about it.

Q73: Is Factotum 1 + Able Learner an actual good splash? Only if you're going to take Chameleon later. EDIT: Looks like I got ninja'd. He was just those few seconds faster.

Q74: What's the name of that prestige class that, if you have telepathy, lets you detect where all thoughts are within a certain radius, or something?

A74: It's not a prestige class, but you're probably thinking of the Mindsight feat from Lords of Madness, which lets you detect the location and creature type of non-mindless creatures within your telepathy range.

Q75:What happens if I use Similacrum to copy a balor or a solar? Since their spellcasting and their spell-like abilities do not depend on hit dice would they have them intact?

But the truth is that the color of the hat does not come from the group of us - our community doesn't directly produce hats. We simply give average head circumferences, list current fashion trends, and point out some shiny, obscure baubles to add to the latest hat line.

You can have every divine spell ever written and any arcane spell you can find to scribe into your spell book.

A76: It adds accelerated spellcasting progression from any list to a skillmonkey base, a feat which can be reassigned daily as you see fit (arguably letting you Extra Spell whatever you feel like into your new spellbook, what with the "any list" thing), gives a +6 stat bonus which can also be reassigned freely, and then some miscellaneous stuff. It's probably not as good as a PrC that gives accelerated casting all the way to 9 (all two of them), but it's still pretty dang good.

If the primary use isn't blatantly obvious from the skill description, let alone the synergy with beget bogan, you aren't going to understand any other explanation given.

Q 72: A sorcerer or wizard takes Heartfire Fanner to level 4. This grants bardic music ability as a bard 9 (5 at level 1, plus the 4 class levels -love that Dragon shoddy wording-). If I'm not mistaken, if I were to sub out the new music abilities for music feats, that would be at HFF 2 and HFF 4, correct?
From page 9. Also : Q 71a: Does HFF also grant the bard list?

I always assumed this was a running joke. Nope, you can BREAK THE GAME ECONOMY IN HALF!!!!1!!11!!! Crafting a masterwork basket, say it costs 100gp. Crafting cost = 33gp(1/3 of price in materials) Sell price = 50% 100gp x 0.5 - 33gp = 17 gp profit That's 17gp... FREE. ALL YOU NEED IS SKILLZ. Which means you spam Craft: Basketweaving, until you literally have millions of gp. The skill is broken, should be banned IMO. Along with Profession: Bookkeeper. KEEP BOOKS UNTIL YOU HAZ MILLIONS OF GOLDZ. *straight face*

Q78 A player in my group is looking for a way to apply his Strength to his Fort saves. He thinks it's a feat, possibly called Brutal Physique. (I have checked X Stat to Y Bonus, and found nothing.) Does anyone know a feat (or other ability) that does this?

Does anyone know a feat (or other ability) that does this? I've heard of it. Basically instead of will, it's sheer strength that keeps you going. It's 3rd party. I can't remember who made it though. This is a feat that most DM's have banned, but it works too. Child of the Earth (General) Faithful to your Defohy (Dejy) heritage, you are beloved of Mother Earth. Her favor protects you. Prerequisites: Dejy born and raised in O'Par, Paru'Bor, or Ek'Gakel. Benefit: You gain a luck bonus to all of your saving throws. This bonus is equal to your Constitution modifier. Special: You may only take this feat as a 1st-level character.

A74 Most creatures with SLAs or racial casting don't have these abilities tied to their HD. This means, by RAW, you can make a simulacrum of a Solar, a Balor, and so on and get the racial casting and SLAs.

Hood - My first answer to all your build questions; past, present, and future. Speaking of which: Don't even need TO for this. Any decent Hood build, especially one with Celerity, one-rounds [Azathoth, the most powerful greater deity from d20 Cthulu]. Does it bug anyone else that we've reached the point where characters who can obliterate a greater deity in one round are considered "decent?"

Yes, it is rather broken when using that interpretation. Most people just assume it is limited to one natural weapon for the sake of sanity.
