All spell progression is as per the wizard class. (It may be worth noting that Spellhoarding is LA: - rather than LA: +0.)
A 329
Bonus spells apply individually to every spell progression that qualifies. There could, theoretically, be a class that lacks a version of the bold text here:
Like other spellcasters, a sorcerer can cast only a certain number of spells of each spell level per day. His base daily spell allotment is given on Table: The Sorcerer. In addition, he receives bonus spells per day if he has a high Charisma score.

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XX
Q330:
Mind Switch states that I gain the type of the creature I swap minds with. Do I also gain their subtypes?
For example, if I Mind Switch with a Pit Fiend, I gain the Outsider Type. Do I also gain the [Evil] and [Lawful] subtypes?
Q331:
Does the Undetectable Alignment spell stop subtypes from pinging on Detect spells? If I were a Demon and I cast Undetectable Alignment on myself, would I still Detect as Chaotic and Evil due to my subtypes?Last edited by kardar233; 2012-03-09 at 09:30 PM.

Continuation
After staring at the base statics of the riding dog, I realized my error. To elborate for everyone else I've posted the breakdown below.
SpoilerI forgot the 40 movement speed imparts a bonus to your jump check, as well as the alertness feat providing a +2 on spot and listen.
The animals skills are presented as: Jump +8 , Listen +5, Spot +5, Swim +3 and Survival +1. Jump still seems wrong, as it should be 4 racial, 4 speed, and 2 str. Listen is +1 modifier, Alertness +2, and 2 ranks. Spot is also +1 modifier, Alertness +2, and 2 ranks. Swim is a +2 modifer and 1 rank. Survival is simply a +1 modifer.
This anmial appearently does follow the normal skill rules for animals with 2 hd and an int of 2. Jump still seems off.
78% of DM's started their first campaign in a tavern. If you're one of the 22% that didn't, copy and paste this into your signature.
I was magically yanked out of my bed by a Demon Lord, and deposited into a huge dungeon with three strangers. None of them were pyromaniacs :(

Unless there is something I don't know about subtypes, no.
Polymorph specifies when you change you gain type and subtypes, and as Mind Switch only states that you gain the type, I would assume that you do not gain the subtypes.Avatar made by Sneak.

Q 332
What is the purpose of discipline-related weapons in ToB? Do they only enable the usage of certain feats (Blade Meditation, Shadowblade etc.)? Do you need to use disciple-related weapons to initiate maneuvers of a particular discipline?
Q 333
Is the initiator of a white raven maneuver/stance allied with himself?

Undetectable Alignment functions as described. It prevents detection of alignment, not subtypes, from all divinations. Detect Evil would detect an Evil subtype creature regardless of alignment, a Cleric of an Evil deity regardless of alignment, and an Undead creature regardless of alignment. Adding Undetectable Alignment does not change any of the above; it simply removes creatures of Evil alignment (but without other such Evil-flagged characteristics) from detection by Detect Evil. The same pattern applies to other alignments: it's only the actual alignments that Undetectable Alignment obscures from detection.
A 333 Generally yes.ally

Q335
If you are both a arcane and divine spellcaster and you have Epic Spellcasting, can you cast both arcane and divine Epic spells, or do you have to pick one? For that matter, do the Epic spell slots stack, or do you take one total or the other?

Q 339Do temporary fluctuations to ability scores cause feats to no longer function?
Specifically, could a character take a feat that had a certain STR requirement, polymorph into a creature with a lower STR, and still take advantage of the feat?

Q343: Is there any way to qualify for feats that require an Evil alignment without actually being Evil? I'm thinking of something along the lines of the Ordered Chaos feat, but for Evil.

A 341 No.
You must fight with two weapons to use Wolf Fang Strike. You only have a single unarmed strike, absent special exceptions like the one granted by the City Brawler Barbarian alternative class feature (Dragon # 349, page 92).
A 342 No.
A touch attack is not a weapon. Also, Shadow Blade Technique requires a normal melee attack, not a touch attack.Originally Posted by Shadow Blade Technique
The Lurk has sneak attack only in the interval between activating their Additional Sneak Attack augment and their next attack. But advancing to the next level commences immediately upon attaining the necessary XP. From Player's Handbook on page 58:Advancing a Level: When your character’s XP total reaches at least the minimum XP needed for a new character level (see Table 3–2), he or she “goes up a level.”Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2012-03-10 at 04:26 PM.

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XX
Q344 - How do I modify weapon ranges if the attacker is high up on a cliff / hill? For an example, if a longbow can shoot 100ft, how far could the longbowman shoot if he was on a 30ft tower?
Q345 - The bard/wizard/sorcerer lvl 4 spell Rainbow Pattern says: "Rainbow pattern fascinates a maximum of 24 Hit Dice of creatures." so if I was to cast it on thirty lvl 1 simple commoners, the closest 24 would be affected, now say 4 of them made their saves and weren't fascinated, would the spell try to affect 4 new HD of people from amongst the remaining 6 commoners who each would also get a save?
Sorry if I'm asking stupid questions or questions answered alreadyDumplings and parrots.

Measuring Distance
Diagonals: When measuring distance, the first diagonal counts as 1 square, the second counts as 2 squares, the third counts as 1, the fourth as 2, and so on.

Re: Simple Q&A D&D 3.5 (by RAW) XX
Because of the D&D movement rules, you'll need to figure the total distance the arrow needs to move to get to the target. There is no bonus for making ranged attacks from higher elevation. Similarly, there is no penalty for firing at a target above you.
Since the real-world physics is so obligingly simple, it would make a very reasonable houserule.
Q347: If a character with more than one arcane spellcasting class takes the Incantatrix prestige class, to what class does the Focused Studies limitation apply? Does it apply to all classes, or can the character choose one? And if the latter, can the character use the "+1 level of existing arcane class" to progress a different class from the one that Focused Studies applied to?Time travels in divers paces with divers persons.

The only limit of the Incantatrix Focused Studies class feature is that the chosen school cannot be Abjuration or Divination; it applies to all spellcasting classes ─ even divine spellcasting classes.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2012-03-10 at 06:48 PM.

Q348:
So I feel like a total noob for asking this, and I am with psionics. What does this mean when it lists "astral construct I, astral construct II, and astral construct III" as separate powers? I'm looking and Astral construct only shows up as one power. Am I missing something?

The Constructor is a 3.0 era prestige class; in 3.0 psionics, Astral Construct was spread out over multiple powers like Summon Monster is for core magic.

What you missed was the date: 07/27/2002. That places this Wizards of the Coast article solidly in 3.0 D&D time, which is why the powers don't align with the 3.5 versions.This is an upgrade of the d20 System, not a new edition of the game. This revision is compatible with all existing products, and those products can be used with the revision with only minor adjustments.

Monster 'races' often don't have listed age categories, and it is up to the DM to adjudicate them. According to this article, fey in a baseline campaign are mortal but a DM can vary this as appropriate.
There are various templates that may, or may not, give immortality: here is a list of some RAW, RAI and RAMS methods of attaining immortality. Note that Wedded to History is not a RAW method of attaining immortality - the author incorrectly assumed the a character receives the 'Endless' template as a result of getting the feat.
