In Totemic Guardians benefits if a guild member's Shaman / Witchdoctor is not on adventure you can give another Shaman / Witchdoctor there spirits / mana.

Well what I am asking is if your a Tribal Druid who gains fetches from people give power to Shaman / Witchdoctor then could they benefit from the guilds benefit gaining earth power from other members.

Iain

No, because the tribal druid thing is a long way form being established.
If more tribes had druids then I would not be against allowing it in the future.

I may have missed this topic in my search and if so, apologies.

if I follow a multirace that means that I take 1/6 less physical damage per lvl and am immune by the end of it, what effect does this have on my ability to deal physical damage?

Ben

When you are greater than 1/2 effect you are at -2 max damage for powerbase.
When you become immune you can't inflict it.

If you are in a Berserk Rage if someone could over come your impressive resistance levels with a Mastery or Domination effect what are the effects broadly based on what the effect does...

Beguile - I assume you would still attack them because you would attack your best friend...

Sp. Mastery - Can they order you out of the rage or just order you to attack new targets?

Possession or similar - the default position is stop and do nothing and not use any abilities so I assume this just ends the Rage?

Cheers

It depends on the domination.

Beguile you'd probably leave them alone, after all you are unlikely to consider them a threat.
Spiritual Mastery you do what you are told, but if its not very direct and obvious the rage would still be relevant.

Possession (and thrall) the puppet effect wins.

Is it possible to MR to jade elf and onyx elf using aligned elf MR asl long as we are able to provide the rules for it??

Yes

Am sure this has been asked before.

Armoured Priest says, may wear light and medium armour, they may acquire the ability to wear heavier later.

But no ability appears to be published.

However, would multi classing warrior, now allow the use of heavy armour, even though the general rules state that the disbenefits carry over of one class carry over to the other.

Thanks

it has been answered before, and it is a little more complicated.

Armour use falls into two areas.

A Character is restricted to wearing XXX (So pure priests no armour, Druids, Psi-Classes etc.). This is a class restriciton

A character has the ability to wear XXX (Priests, Wizards and most others).

The first is a restriction so multi-classing doesn't help. The second isn't, so you can.

Hi Lee,

If when making a hermit list I we're to take pure force and later decided to take a major sphere, would I need to take major foce to keep it, or would I be able to major sphere something else and still be able to keep it?

Cheers!

Rob

You can take a different sphere.

Would a character gone spiritual mancer and then MR Spiritual Vessel, would they still be able to heal elves?

no, they would do spirit and spirit based mantic.

Like an elf can't kill a wight with a mantic sword.

How do priests and using magic items work these days?

Is it:

1) They can't.
2) They can but can't use spiritual stuff while carrying
3) They don't get utilise magic item, but if they MC to something that does they're ok
4) A.N.Other option

Cheers!

As it says in the rules they don't get utilise magic item, and can't get it without entering the wizard bracket.

If you are a class that goes priest you can still use them.

If you have multiclassed into multiple warrior subclasses that an buy warrior specialist skills, can you buy a warcry from each of them?

Example, as a kallah multiclassed ranger and budoka, can you buy a warrior specialist of warcry as a ranger and a second as a budoka?

Nope, its the same skill.

Can Manaform be cast as a Grey or New Colour Spell?

It falls under the General Spell list which states they can only be cast by the non-grey elemental colours but under colour says ALL (the others say ANY).

If it can be Grey or New Colour how does the verbal work given there are only elementals for the non-grey original elemental colours?

BBB

yes it can, and use something appropriate just like the pact with the dragon verbals.

If a law abiding character immune to all forms of scrying is party killed, is the character who pk’d them still outlawed?

If an outlawed character is now immune to all scrying and is then party killed due to their outlaw status, is their killer outlawed as no one can tell the outlaw was actually outlawed?

Sorry for the number of ‘outlaw’ terms in this. I hope no one searches ‘outlaw’ now!

If you party kill someone that isn't a freebie you get outlawed.

When spending ISP, it states that you can buy an item of abilities from tables 1-9 as long as they are appropriate to the threshold of the dungeon you’re on. What it doesn’t state is whether they have to be from tables which your character could normally buy from.

I.e. if I had a warrior priest at 600 points, could he buy an item of +1 and +2 max AC from the warrior tables?

Clearly items of spell innates etc don’t follow class rules but unsure on the tables abilities side of things.

Thanks

If refs are setting it then it would be based on the table of the dungeon.
If a player is using flexi ISP (Dealer, Adventurer class etc.) then it is based on their table.

So is an outlaw that is immune to scrying a freebie or not please?

yes they are an outlaw...

Quick question about DAC whilst bound per the spell. I've had conflicting opinions as to whether you can apply DAC against weapon blows in that scenario and would appreciate some clarity!

Thanks

Yes you can.
Broadly if you can move you can apply DAC, so a slow (for example) doesn't stop you using DAC.
The only exception to this is Gravity Well, which says you lose your DAC.

Can hannot buy bound to the city??

I don't have the book here, in general if you have a restriction and an ability needs you to take a restriction then you can't.
However in the case of Hanot and city bound then they can, but I'd just go Kallah.

Can a grey warden buy Trust of the Spirit realm for the free 8th level miracle?

Also given that grey wardens are now just a special case of hermit priest and can be any type of priest (warrior, armoured etc.). Is it intentional that they are still excluded from buying change priestly class, or can they buy it as per a normal hermit priest?

They can, but need the ability to cast 8th level.

And it was just missed, they can buy it now if they want.

When buying innate neuronics from the class table such as para psychic or the seer one,

do the innates stack so could by N pen from both seer and mystic tables.

If you are already 1st class neuronicst do you count as 1st class for innates that say +1st class i.e. Seer going parapsychic buying a +1st class mystic innate



Miles

You buy the best of the innates, they don't stack up.

And no, Its 1st class Mystic to buy 1st class mystic stuff.

[isbiraven]

does a mercenary know they have vitae?

can you IC feel any loss of Vitae even if it is taken without dying?

It depends on the roleplay and what is happening.

Hi Lee

If I'm building an evil stairway for an unholy champion, it says that you must have at least one of each preceding miracle on that list. It also says that you can only have miracles on the miracle list of the church to which you are aligned.

So, if (for instance) I were looking at being part of Iron and Empire as an UC with a summoning stairway, Iron and Empire have zombie, skeleton, ghoul and wraith but are missing mummy.

Could I therefore have an evil stairway that allows me to summon all of zombie, skeleton, ghoul and wraith or would I have to stop at Ghoul because there is no mummy on their list?

Thanks

Ben

It is probably not very clear.
You need to buy all of the tree (so include mummy in the example), but the general theme must follow the church (so taking a necromancy list for a Dunatis priest is out). The being on your church list is more for advanced miracles rather than parts of the basic trees.

Do focussed spirit (1/2 off miracles of opposite alignment) and greatness of spirit (1/2 off spirits of opposite alignment) stack? Heard different answers when I have asked different people.

Cheers,
Mark

No they don't.
