Nope. It only applies to what it says it applies to. The maximum DEX bonus you can add to your AC. The DEX Bonus to reflex saves is something completely different.

A 053a
RAW, 9th Level. Bloodlines don't give you additional class abilities, but they do raise the level of any class abilities you already have. Since you already have the scout class skirmish ability, your effective scout level is now effectively 5, your ranger level is effectively 4, and the total is 9.
A 053b
RAW, your martial initiator level is indeed 9, because the two bloodline levels add to every one of your classes separately as in your second example.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
I'm not sure how that is relevant.
Its a feat that allows you to count Ranger levels towards Skirmish and Scout levels towards Favored Enemies.
---
On the other hand, assuming the official FAQ is considered definitive, I'm fairly certain the Skirmish is not 9th level.
Many class features improve as you gain levels but aren’t specifically calculated with class level. A rogue’s sneak attack, for example, improves at a fixed rate, but it doesn’t specifically use your class level to calculate its value in the way that the abilities listed above do.

Q 62
Tremorsense
If no straight path exists through the ground from the creature to those that it’s sensing, then the range defines the maximum distance of the shortest indirect path.
Can anyone explain this a little better?
Does it mean that if the there's 50 ft. high wall between the senser and the target, the senser cannot sense the target if he/she has 30 ft. tremorsense? The target is right behing the wall and the distance between the senser and the target is 10 ft.

T__|__S

The wall is 50 ft. high, the distance between T and S is 10 ft. and the tremorsense reaches 30 ft. Does the wall block the tremorsense?

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
A 62:
A wall does not interrupt a straight-line path through the ground, so tremorsense still works just fine for detecting creatures on the other side of a wall. On the other hand, if you replace that wall with a crevasse, it would interrupt the straight-line path, since now the straight-line path would have to pass through the open air in the crevasse.Time travels in divers paces with divers persons.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
A 63 addendum
I cannot find a rule saying that either blindsight or blindsense establish line of sight when a creature is detected, even though the former at least definitely should.Using nonvisual senses, such as sensitivity to vibrations, keen smell, acute hearing, or echolocation, a creature with blindsight maneuvers and fights as well as a sighted creature. Invisibility, darkness, and most kinds of concealment are irrelevant, though the creature must have line of effect to a creature or object to discern that creature or object.
If you have blindsight, you have Line of Sight as long as you have Line of Effect.
Blindsense does not, however:
Any opponent the creature cannot see still has total concealment (50% miss chance) against the creature with blindsense, and the creature still has the normal miss chance when attacking foes that have concealment.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
A64No. Once you escape the grapple, you are no longer grappled.
round 1) you bite, impgrab, grapple
round 2) you start your turn with your opponent in your mouth, so you can activate swallow whole, making a pin attempt by rolling grapple. then you take tummy damage as detailed in that monster's entry.I've got a new fantasy TTRPG about running your own fencing school in a 3 musketeers pastiche setting.

You don't. A shield bonus is not a DEX bonus. Losing the DEX bonus does not affect other bonuses to AC.

Q.066
If one targets with Sword of Conscience (Book of Exalted Deeds, p. 109) an evil creature / undead / outsider that happens to also be cleric of an evil deity, does the target risk damage for its type, for being an evil cleric or do both damage stack ?Currently playing:

Q 67
If a creature is forced to make an attack roll during its turn, right before a second iterative attack (thus taking a -5 penalty to this second attack), does the penalty also apply to the attack not related to the full attack?
Example: A fighter readies his action to disarm after the first attack by the creature, thus provoking an AoO. Does the AoO take the -5 penalty? How about the opposed attack roll for the the disarm?

No. Other attacks only get penalties if those are explicitly mentioned. AoOs even explicitly do not have that penalty:Originally Posted by SRD

Q 68
Do psionic items exist that give ability bonuses (like magic items, e.g. belt of giant strength)?My group uses all official 3.x material.
Our most game-changing house-rule:
All fixed numerical bonuses to skill checks, saving throws, attack rolls, damage rolls, armor class, caster level checks, and spell DCs granted by feats and racial traits are doubled. This does not apply to bonuses granted by size category, nor to bonuses granted by class features, and neither to variable bonuses like the damage bonus from power attack.

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
A 066 No.
Sword of Conscience damages an Evil creature according to the magnitude of its Evil, which is specified on the accompanying table. The spell does not stack with itself, so if an Evil Undead who is also a Cleric of an Evil deity is the target and they have 5 Cleric levels and 8 HD, you would roll the damage for Undead (1d8) and Cleric (2d6) and they would take the higher of these two rolled values as damage. Note that if the Undead Cleric of an Evil deity was not itself Evil (becoming Undead via Necropolitan template, for example) it would be an invalid target for Sword of Conscience and the spell would fail at casting.

A 069 No.
There's no such stipulation for Shrink Item or command words in general; you need a standard action and sufficient vocal clarity for the item to "hear" the command word (audibility requirements are entirely at the discretion of your DM).

Re: Simple RAW Thread for 3.5: 30. Really? 30?
A 68 Yes
A dorje of animal affinity would be one example.
Okay, okay, non-smart-alecky answer: You can generally make psionic versions of items that are not traditionally psionic, provided that you have the equivalent psionic item crafting feat and a psionic power "of a similar flavor" to the normal spell prerequisite. (The example given is psionic teleport being used instead of teleport to craft a helm of teleportation.) So animal affinity, as the psionic equivalent to the bull's strength family, could reasonably allow you to craft your belt of giant strength (although as the rules here are only guidelines, you'll have to run it past your DM). If you were using the Psionics Is Different variant, the resulting items would be considered psionic, not magic. See Magic Item Compendium page 232, in the "Psionics and Crafting Magic Items" sidebar.Last edited by Troacctid; 2015-06-15 at 02:40 AM.

Q70: If a Beguiler uses a runestaff with spells not on his spell-list via Use Magic Device and fails the check, is the spell-slot expended or not? How about the x/day use of the runestaff?
