what's the empty creature skin for? any reason, why i shouldn't drop it? and may i say: YES, Invisible Helms !!!!!! The empty creature skin is for invisible helm properties. If you have it in your inventory, that means you're not getting invisible helm properties (a problem as a shifter, because shifters use skins too). Drop it in the trash bin if you have it. Acaos

Lifethreader - Does "Lifethreading" take you out of GS? I'm assuming it does, since you're also "attacking" in that mode, but wanted to check. Also, what is the radius (at its maximum perhaps), in relation to other spells like Healing Circle and Mass Heal? What "turns off" Lifethreading? Attacking? Moving? What is its duration? Lastly (sorry), are you considered flat-footed if you are ONLY Lifethreading? Lifethreading ceases if you run out of memorized cleric spells or are no longer wielding a sickle (or if you die or rest, of course). Cure, Heal, Mass Heal, and Healing Circle are currently the spells which do not work on the Accursed Pariah (though Heal and Mass Heal will still heal festering wounds). Healing potions do not function either. Temporary hit point effects work normally. Greater Stoneskin is normally cancelled or reduced in effect to the base values if you wear armor heavier than robes or a shield. The Accursed Pariah can use Greater Stoneskin like a Bane Knight can use Premonition. Acaos

So as long as you have any clerical spell, you're constantly Threading? Very cool. Edit: What if you CHANGE sickles? Like you find that a Moad sickle hurts things more than your level 35 one in a particular area, and you swap? Do you have to reactivate the Threading? And do you only get X Lifethreads per day? Ouch. No Heal pots either eh? Hmm...Okay. That helps me plan a bit more. Thanks for the answers Acaos. Greatly appreciated.

Wow. So as long as you have any clerical spell, you're constantly Threading? Very cool. Yes, but be aware that while active, it burns your highest memorized spell each round. Swapping sickles won't disable it, and you get unlimited toggles of Lifethreading per day. Acaos

Please provide any details you can as to how you got the skin, they'll be useful in preventing future issues. details have been provided (as much as i could remember anyway) does that mean, that gmw is now transmutation based and all gmws are just one higher than normal, or do need the legendary trans just for the +1 and everything else still works off of enchantment? (+10 from gmw, +4 from legendary enchant)

(+10 from gmw, +4 from legendary enchant) Sorry, that's a documentation bug. You need LSF Enchantment to get +14, but the +1 applies immediately upon acquiring the quasiclass, making the maximum +15 with LSF Enchantment. If you had no Enchantment SFs at all, it would be at +11 cap. (Edit) We've decided to fix this by making GMW use Transmutation foci for Accursed Pariahs, rather than the behavior described above. So a Pariah with LSF Transmutation will receive +15 GMW. Acaos

Is it possible to make a Theurge who is also a Staffmaster? It seems possible from the descriptions. Since it takes 15 levels of Wizard before level 21 to qualify for Staffmaster and 9 levels of Cleric before level 20 to qualify for Theurge, no. In any case, you can never have two quasiclasses. Acaos Thanks for the reply and sorry for posting a question with such an obvious reason as to why that's not possible. Missed that somehow. Again, apologies if this is asking a stupid question, but I'm really excited about the Accursed Pariah quasi. Is there any way to restore hit points at all, other than your innate & equipment based regeneration / the resurrection scroll of a friend after you hit the deck? (or Greater Restoration?) Although I'm not sure if the following suggestion is suitable for the intention of the quasi class (or playable without being able to heal), but here it is: Could combined barbarian and sorcerer levels be considered in qualifying for shapestrong once you qualify as an Accursed Pariah in order to get the extra attacks with double weapons (and act as a tank)? I don't know if such a build would work because of the lower BAB that 11 sorc pre-epic ensures, but tensers might make up for this, as with staffmasters. Balance is of course another consideration, though I think it would be similar to a staffmaster balance-wise.

Vampiric Touch still works, as do Regeneration and Monstrous Regeneration. We specifically required 11 Sorcerer to preclude Shapestrong, so no. They do get to be Large, though. Acaos

sorry. replied to a mail acaos sent me earlier about this... it basically happened while shifting a lot. i only noticed later and checked my log to see when it appeared. the acquire message it right above "...shifts into outsider form". so it must have happened while shifting to either azer or slaad. it doesn't seem to have any negative effects. invis helm still works. i can drop it and pick it up no problem. it just sits there in my inventory... ...i just did some more shifting tests and it just now happened again. here's what i did: logged in, fresh server. rested. shifted to slaad. shifted to iron golem. (direct shift from slaad via numpad, if that's important) the acquited item message is right above: "...shifts into construct form" now i have 2 sitting in my inventory. invis helm properties still work. nothing else seems out of the ordinary.
