I don't think any options exist. Summon Eidolon is your best bet. Your second best bet is dismissing the Eidolon before he gets killed, flee, resummon and heal your eidolon.
A142
Like normal familiars (and even animal companions) there are no real RAW rules on how you get one. There is a ritual to bind a creature to yo, and that ritual might also supply you with the creature. The wording is kinda vague, it says you can replace the creature with the ritual. The full line is:
If a familiar is dismissed, lost, or dies, it can be replaced 1 week later through a specialized ritual that costs 200 gp per wizard level. The ritual takes 8 hours to complete.
A143
No, you gain one slam attack per pair of arms.
Slam (Ex)
An eidolon can deliver a devastating slam attack. This attack is a primary attack. The slam deals 1d8 points of damage (2d6 if Large, 2d8 if Huge). The eidolon must have the limbs (arms) evolution to take this evolution. Alternatively, the eidolon can replace the claws from its base form with this slam attack (this still costs 1 evolution point). This evolution can be selected more than once, but the eidolon must possess an equal number of the limbs evolution.
Claws (Ex)
An eidolon has a pair of vicious claws at the end of its limbs, giving it two claw attacks. These attacks are primary attacks. The claws deal 1d4 points of damage (1d6 if Large, 1d8 if Huge). The eidolon must have the limbs evolution to take this evolution. This evolution can only be applied to the limbs (legs) evolution once This evolution can be selected more than once, but the eidolon must possess an equal number of the limbs evolutionProudly addicted to pointing out where exactly rules can be found.

Q145
"Pounce (Ex) When a creature with this special attack makes a charge, it can make a full attack (including rake attacks if the creature also has the rake ability)."
Is there any reason a creature couldn't choose to divide those attacks against multiple targets that are all within reach of the end space, as per a normal full attack?

6 characters have a hard encounter. 1 dies and 2 flee. The other 3 finish the encounter. What happens to the experience? It's divided by 6, 5 or 3?But the strong man is stronger when alone.

Re: Simple Q&A for Pathfinder 3: Find With a Vengeance
A144
Nope, claws are Primary Natural Attacks and you can deliver them always at full base attacks bonus.
The -5 penalty only comes in play when you make an attack with primary and secondary natural attack or with a weapon and any natural attacks in the same round.
So 4 claws are at full bonus.
1 Sword attack and 3 claws means sword at full bonus (and extra attacks from BaB) and all claws attacks are at -5.
And 4 claws + tail slap means all claws at full bonus, and the tail slap at -5.
A145
Not really.
Although with a normal charge you pick one opponent to charge, move towards and attack, there is nothing about pounce in this regard.
A146
It really depends on the DM and how he designs the encounters. There are no hard rules on the divide. And there are tons of ways to approach this, but in general the question turns back to the DM: How much do you think they earned?
To give some more personal opinion: I would stay with a 6 split, they all fought in that combat, and maybe give people that didn't flee bonus XP (including the dead dude, he died for the combat.), unless the fleeing party members had no other options.
A147
Fear effects go like this:
Shaken (–2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks)
Frightened (Same penalties as Shaken + you actively try to flee from whatever is causing fear but you can defend yourself when cornered.)
Panicked (Same penalties as Frightened + you drop your weapons, and you cant even fight back when cornered.)
Cause Fear makes the target Frightened (state 2 fear) for 1d4 rounds. Unless the target makes his save, then he gets Shakes (state 1 fear) for 1 round.
Or simply put, when you fail your save you try to run away. When you make your save you can control your own actions. In both cases you still got a -2 penalty on a lot of rolls.Proudly addicted to pointing out where exactly rules can be found.

Q147C
My confusion is in the fact that the shaken cause does not contain an "instead" or "Except if". It reads as if you're frightened no matter what, and additionally shaken if you make the save...Last edited by weckar; 2014-07-06 at 06:49 AM.

The wording is unchanged since 3.5, so I don't think there is anything in the pathfinder rules to help you out.
Besides, and I am no English major (or even native), I am pretty sure the words "except" or "instead" are not needed. Something to do with two separate statements and separate conditions due the word "if". But bugger all when I can explain English Grammar Rules.
Then there is that whole point that the word "addition" is missing. As in: "it is shaken for 1 round, in addition to frightened". So there is no reason the penalties come in addition to the normal effects.
Also you cannot be shaken and frightened at the same time... you would become panicked. So you can only become shaken trough the spell if you are not frightened. And if there was no way to become shaken, why would they even mentioned it? (And this all ignoring the obvious fact the saving throws are intended to reduce or lessen penalties.)Last edited by Yanisa; 2014-07-06 at 07:23 AM.

Q148
Do powerful creatures that use natural weapons and lack spells/magic items have any way to hurt incorporeal creatures? For instance, could the Tarrasque hurt a Shadow?
I know certain types of DR/X allow natural weapons to penetrate similar (magic, epic) or associated (opposite alignment) DR. Is there something like that which works on incorporeal?

The more I try to learn, the less I understand...
Q149
With Metamagic feats, do clerics/wizards need to prepare/memorize a spell as a metamagic spell in advance? Like, if my cleric wanted to cast a maximized cure serious wounds, do you need to prepare/memorize the spell in it's maximized version in advance?
Q150
Crafting (Scribe Scroll, Craft wand) and Metamagic feats. I was just told these work together, and nothing I can find on google says otherwise. Can you really make scrolls of maximized fireballs? Wand of maximized cure light wounds? I have a hard time picturing it, as why wouldn't you always buy a scroll/potion/wand/etc with a metamagic feat on it if you had the option?

Re: Simple Q&A for Pathfinder 3: Find With a Vengeance
A148
Well, creatures with damage reduction x/magic make a chance.
Some monsters are vulnerable to magic weapons. Any weapon with at least a +1 magical enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls overcomes the damage reduction of these monsters. Such creatures' natural weapons (but not their attacks with weapons) are treated as magic weapons for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.
An incorporeal creature has no physical body. It can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, magic weapons or creatures that strike as magic weapons, and spells, spell-like abilities, or supernatural abilities.
Beyond that, most creature with natural attacks cannot hurt incorporeal, and are advised to get an Amulet of Mighty Fists .
A149
Yup, you need to prepare the spells in advance. Check out the Metamagic Feat chapter
Wizards and Divine Spellcasters*: Wizards and divine spellcasters must prepare their spells in advance. During preparation, the character chooses which spells to prepare with metamagic feats (and thus which ones take up higher-level spell slots than normal).
A150
From the same chapter
Magic Items and Metamagic Spells: With the right item creation feat, you can store a metamagic version of a spell in a scroll, potion, or wand. Level limits for potions and wands apply to the spell's higher spell level (after the application of the metamagic feat). A character doesn't need the metamagic feat to activate an item storing a metamagic version of a spell.
Wand of Maximized Cure Light Wounds: Spell level is 4 (1 + 3). Minimum caster level is 7 (for 4th level spells). Cost is 4 x 7 x 750 = 21,000 GP.
Compare that to the normal 750 GP for a Wand of Cure Light Wounds.
And for the same price you can buy a wand of Critical Wounds, which heals 4d8 + 7 (or average 25) where as our maximum CLW wand heals for 8 + 5 (or 13). (Even a roll of only ones gives us 11 healing for a Wand of CCW.)
There might specific instances where the metamagic feat is worth it, but I think that rather comes from other metamagics then maximize. (Scrolls of Silent [Spell] for stealth missions.)Proudly addicted to pointing out where exactly rules can be found.

The "Roll With It" goblin exclusive feat, can it allow you to dodge a grab attack?
The feat allows you to bounce back upon being hit by a melee attack, flying an amount of feet equal to damage taken, as well as ignoring damage.

If someone doesn't know what is in a Handy Haversack, can they retrieve stuff from it?

Re: Simple Q&A for Pathfinder 3: Find With a Vengeance
A151
Yes, if a creature has an action that deals damage and the grab special ability, you can avoid both the grab and the damage. (Similar to poisons, trips and other side effects.) Do keep in might the damage is a prerequisite (So no avoiding grapples.)
A152
Judging from the way a Haver Sack works, it is a use activated item. Thus we get this little rule:
Use activation doesn't mean that if you use an item, you automatically know what it can do. You must know (or at least guess) what the item can do and then use the item in order to activate it, unless the benefit of the item comes automatically, such as from drinking a potion or swinging a sword.
While such storage is useful enough, the pack has an even greater power. When the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item is always on top.
The short answer: if the user knows what items are in the bag, he can retrieve them, without even knowing it is a magic item.
A153
The skill ranks of the new class. (The idea is pretty similar to Hit Points.)Last edited by Yanisa; 2014-07-07 at 06:31 AM.

A154 logic I don't find any RAW stating that effects that were drawn from your new form end after the spell ends. So they resume.

Cleave states that the second attack is to be made on a creature adjacent to the previous enemy and within range. Does this mean I could use a reach weapon to attack an enemy two squares away, and then cleave to an enemy standing between us?

No, reach weapons don't allow you to attack enemies that are adjacent to you. But if have a different scenario (like longer reach, natural attacks with reach or a skill or weapon to avoid the rule), you can hit an enemy behind another enemy and then the enemy that is closest to you. There aren't any rules to prevent you from attacking a creature behind another creature (well there is soft cover, but is only for ranged attacks).Last edited by Yanisa; 2014-07-09 at 07:43 AM.

I found three magical creatures that fits your bill: the Dweomercat (Tiger), the Pard (Cheetah/Lynx) and the Krenshar (Panther).
As for normal cats, I think Dire Lions and Dire Tigers are the biggest, with their large size. Maybe you can get away with the giant template? (And if templates are allowed, consider a Young Sea Cat or Kamadan)Last edited by Yanisa; 2014-07-09 at 08:54 AM.

Re: Simple Q&A for Pathfinder 3: Find With a Vengeance
A156 addendum Some players feel fine with templates while others are kind of weirded out by that. I try to avoid them as best a possible. The Pard and the Dweomercat are very helpful, thank you. I like grappling and size really matters there.
Polymorph spells cannot be used to assume the form of a creature with a template or an advanced version of a creature.
While I guess that is done to avoid infinite power loops as well as template stacking and not to discourage templating to fit the size it's still a rule and RAI isn't recognizable.

I guess not, the basics tell us:

Re: Simple Q&A for Pathfinder 3: Find With a Vengeance
Thank you, I'm sure as DM I could still do it, but I'd rather not have books thrown at me. Mainly because an Apocalypse Swarm Mask Golem sounds like a cruel encounter for any group to face. Oh well, back to trying to find a template that stops my party from quickly disposing of the golem and his 17AC (seriously unless it's +20 my party could easily kill it in 1 turn probably )

Yes. There is nothing in the description of shield bashing that sounds like you loose all shield AC bonuses. The phrasing only refers to one shield, the shield you are attacking with. And there are no rules against wearing two shields (although the shield AC doesn't stack due the stacking rules).Proudly addicted to pointing out where exactly rules can be found.
