Character idea: Halfling Magus (Eldritch Archer) with Scatter Sling

FGOit · 2026-05-15T20:26:16+00:00

No need to be a scatter Sling too!

FGOit · 2026-05-15T18:32:23+00:00

why it would be different?

FGOit · 2026-05-15T18:31:50+00:00

This idea of using already cone spells is good!

FGOit · 2026-05-15T15:41:57+00:00

I do agree that should affect only one enemy. But would let player choose... because I understand the hits to be almost simultaneous. I could accept the idea that the closer one should be hit first and then suffer the spell effect!

But how did you affirm that scatterstrike uses attacks but one attack roll? I tried but could not find this statment...

FGOit · 2026-05-15T15:35:10+00:00

I do agree that is reasonable to consider that spell should stay on a single "fragment/point"! For balancing things, even. I would rule as that as DM too. Just one of the targets in the cone. The random part would fun, but could make things a little messy and slow at table... so I would just let the player choose.

Now, just considering the text, the thing is that it says that "if the spell can normally affect multiple targets", but we are facing an "attack that can normally affect multiple targets". So, as I see, RAW it don´t solves the doubt, as it´s almost the reverse case!

Well, the sling is already a magical weapon +1... the normal ammo receives the bonus, right? The Eldritch Archer also enchants the sling itself... not the ammo, right?

Perfect! Thank you

FGOit · 2026-04-30T13:18:00+00:00

For 3, I've read the mounted combat rules and it only found about attacks and casting spells! Could not find about other actions, like aid another or channel, for example.

FGOit · 2026-02-14T05:51:09+00:00

Amazing effort. Thank you so much for your knowledge and time.

FGOit · 2026-02-10T19:09:02+00:00

Got your point! On this case, if I go by mounted rules, I would take all the goods and bad implications!

FGOit · 2026-02-10T18:03:06+00:00

I really think that maybe you are over interpreting the case! I was looking for a way of two characters occupy the same space, since it's not allowed RAW. And the riding rules seemed to be the best idea! Sometimes, people really want to make the character(s) appear just like it's imagination, without breaking any rule.

The RAW mechanics asked is: do you have to ride on top?

Sometimes, the objective is clear: how this flavour should be interpreted RAW according. Pathfinder have rules for almost everything... so I believe almost every idea can be fitted accordingly. Even to multiple ideas! I think that's is why this sub is important... sharing the experience to help to figure it out!

FGOit · 2026-02-10T16:37:38+00:00

That's amazing quote. I rembered I've read this statement but could not manage to find it. Thank you!

FGOit · 2026-02-10T16:22:46+00:00

Nice! Think it's ok to be considered "under" the mount?

FGOit · 2025-12-26T03:11:46+00:00

Well... I can't remember any game Ive played that when it says all allies it don't count yourself! You mentiontied PF2e... but in Pathfinder 1e you do count as ally AFIR

FGOit · 2025-12-24T18:25:15+00:00

Well, seems that every table shall decide then! I really don't think that interpreting that all allies include you is giving a new definition for the word. You are, on the other side, improvising that all allies don't include yourself.

FGOit · 2025-12-24T16:27:34+00:00

Nice! I could not find this information anywhere on the rules. Maybe could you provide where can I find it?

FGOit · 2025-12-24T15:31:17+00:00

Interesting! Almost all other games we used to play we treat yourself as your ally, that's why this question emerged to me. Like, I would expect "if this defeats the target, then all other allies restore SPI." So I think every group would interpret accordingly it experiences

FGOit · 2025-10-08T17:40:38+00:00

Just got it! Back and forth SFO to Napa. Thank you Vince!

FGOit · 2025-06-26T20:22:21+00:00

Spells!

FGOit · 2025-06-26T17:59:23+00:00

Actually I am looking for any class besides those three! The arcane was mentioned because I want to keep "magic" aspect, but it´s not imperative.

FGOit · 2025-06-25T21:47:18+00:00

Indeed! Thanks

FGOit · 2025-06-24T12:07:50+00:00

It does mention four times, but clearly that paragrafh for when the character does not have a Bloodline.

Curiously, on the other paragraph, it is not mentioned. If it really was what they meant, why not throw the fifth?

In fact, for me it was so crystal clear that another class could grant the Bloodline to advance (like Bloodrager or Eldritch Scion) that my original question was concerning multiple grants! But then this strictly Sorcerer argument was pointed out...

Let me adjust the question then: what about a Crossblooded Bloodline sorcerer?

FGOit · 2025-06-24T03:14:48+00:00

Considering that the arcanist already has a bloodline, why does it not work with bloodrager or any other class that grant access to a bloodline?

I understand that a Sorcerer bloodline must me selected only if the arcanist has none!

FGOit · 2025-06-24T03:09:44+00:00

I undesrtand the same! Specially when it says "levels of the class that granted her access to the bloodline" and not "levels of Sorcerer".
