Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
I have loved this class for a long while and wanted to know if there was a way to do the vampire/lich thing where all of your hit dice from any class becomes d12s. O get that you can do the increase hit point mutations, but is there anything that would transfer to other classes?

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
In a few threads I've seen mention of mutators vow of poverty, is that a thing and if it is where would I find it? Or should I just sift though the 40 pages of this thread to find it?

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Perhaps my google-fu isn't up to snuff, but I couldn't find it either, and it's not been mentioned in this thread as far as I can see.
But I believe it might just be VoP with more potentialabusepower because it gives bonuses based on mutator level instead of class level, and mutator level can be increased with racial Hit Dice.
(This is based entirely on this comment made in this thread, I have no other idea of what it is or other basis for the belief.)

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Mutator level is a singular value. As usual in gestalt, if you obtain it multiple times in any given level, you only get the increase once.
The only way to boost your HD size is to obtain one of the templates that does so. I considered putting the HD size increase once, but it just wasn't worthwhile.
Using mutations for VoP was mostly in the realm of theory and never actually put to hard values. 2 mutations per level and a lowered teratomorphism progression as VoP extras was once proposed as an option.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Does the Rake mutation deal elemental damage twice?
Rake
Prerequisite: Claws natural attack.
Ability Score: None
Benefit: The evolutionist gains two rake attacks as secondary natural weapons dealing the same damage as his claws...
Is that the same base damage or the same total damage? For instance, if both my claws dealt +1d6 fire damage, would the rakes also deal +1d6 damage, and +1d6 again for being natural weapons?
Probably rules-lawyering a little, and probably unintentional, but it was brought up and I went with 'it's the same mutation doing the fire damage, so it doesn't get doubled'.

Are they? I didn't know they were supposed to be separate limbs. That does solve it I suppose, so thank you.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Rake
Prerequisite: Claws natural attack.
Ability Score: None
Benefit: The evolutionist gains two rake attacks as secondary natural weapons dealing the same damage as his claws. Rakes can be used at no penalty during grapples, but can only be used when grappling or pouncing.
Rakes benefit from any other mutations applied to the evolutionist’s claws and are considered secondary natural weapons.
Further Mutations: This mutation can be taken up to once per seven mutator levels.
Judging from the bolded segment, the rakes will get the fire damage if said damage is gained from a mutation. Granted, I may have misinterpreted your question and, if so, ignore me.Last edited by Karosa; 2016-05-03 at 01:30 AM.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
So if you have elemental attack for more than one element on your slams, which are also your hands, but you are weilding a club, and pick up elemental infusion do you:
A: need elemental infusion for each element
or
B: need it once since they are on the same attack?

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Curiosity, why are there no mentions of systems outside standard magic and Psionic? For instance martial disciplines would make a lot of sense. I had some people argue that they don't quite fit because they are training. But a few good examples are, Tiger Claw is literally taken form the way wild animals hunt, and Riverside view is the epitome of what Charon's intended to do. If you agree I'd like to see it as an option.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Just as a copy editing nitpick, you use "extraordinaire" throughout when you mean "extraordinary" (at least I assume you do, since extraordinary is the term that has a RAW meaning)

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
So was the Kyorl’Zuraj paragon ever fleshed out somewhere? Because a google of that exact phrase only points me to this thread.
Also, was there ever a PF conversion for this? I know it would not be hard to do by hand but I was curious if there was ever an 'official' one.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
I know someone else asked, and thus draken did make a list of changes for PF.
EDIT: Found it.Avatar by TinyMushroom.

It's a bit light on fluff but Draken did manage to post the Kyorl'Zuraj Paragon here

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Some questions and a bump...
•Can the Abduction mutation be used to transport allies? If not, can there be a mutation that permits such?
•Most craft checks require artisan's tools or a -2 penalty is taken, and masterwork tools give a +2 bonus. Does this apply to Craft (resin) checks?
•Can the Elemental Attack mutation be applied to the Spores mutation from the plant mutation list?
•In the entry for the Elemental Bomb mutation, it says:This ability can be treated as a breath weapon for the purposes of metabreath feats and similar abilities that affect these special attacks.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Abduction allows you to transport allies, yes.
Craft (Resin) works like any other craft skill, so tools are needed (their nature is undefined) and masterwork tools benefit the skill as normal).
Spores are considered a natural attack and thus viable for elemental attack.
Yes, Dragon Ascendancy/Perfection benefits Elemental Bomb.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Well, no benefits other than another increase in damage dice, and I think it could technically still confer the extra +4 on Intimidate against any given size since the measurement is different. Still, both those benefits are handed out in spades by other class features.
It's a falcon. Wearing a Fedora. Your argument is irrelevant.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Could you use natural invisibility to only make certain parts of your body invisible? Or is it all or nothing in regards to that? I'm wondering how to make a Spell Weaver with the aberration ascendancy, but with all invisible tentacles, so it looks like she's casting them out of nowhere.

Re: The better man? There is no such thing [base class]
Since you can mostly determine mutation appearances as you like, you could probably just decide to fluff the regular mutation that way, DM willing - I mean, from what you've said it's mostly just a cool visual detail.
