This thread begins with Tracy and Trump stuck in a curious sort of trap, their only hope of escape being Infernius who is operating a control panel with around 40 buttons, only one of which will set them free and most of which result in some form of torture or death. The buttons bear the same obscure script as elsewhere which Infernius couldn't read even if it was comprehensible.
Welcome back to the Nuts RP thread, where we're about to go Saw on 2 of the party members!

Okay, so as per the wording of a wish, say the spell works like Polymorph Any Object, only the subject transmuted also gains the functional abilities of its new form?

Torc didn't really get a chance to specify what went on though.
Snek would've gotten an attack of opportunity when Fae entered that square.

>2 sets of armor to feel safe
Not to mention he stacks it with those +5 bracers somehow
And he wears a Cloak of Resistance, even though Divine Grace give him more.

He did specify because I asked him. the posts are >>33547 →
>>33548 →
>>33550 →
He clearly sent snek to grapple Trumpaladin
>snek had attack of opportunity
So? He couldn't kill Fae before she made her attacks
>>51122
Rolling a twenty gives double damage. Not instakill unless you have a sword of sharpness, which occasionally can do that

He could grapple her.
And if he'd grappled Trumpaladin, Trumpaladin could've died very quickly afterwards.

>That really is what happens when you put a cloak of resistance on a high level paladin
Supernatural affects that increase saving throws do not stack under normal SRD rules.

Maybe if there were a second supernatural bonus. But there isn't. It's 10 base 1 luck 1 ability 4 resistance and 5 from divine grace. All entirely different types and only one supernatural

Under Combining Magical Effects.
>Spells that provide bonuses or penalties on attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, and other attributes usually do not stack with themselves. More generally, two bonuses of the same type don’t stack even if they come from different spells (or from effects other than spells; see Bonus Types, above).
>Usually, a bonus has a type that indicates how the spell grants the bonus. The important aspect of bonus types is that two bonuses of the same type don’t generally stack. With the exception of dodge bonuses, most circumstance bonuses, and racial bonuses, only the better bonus works (see Combining Magical Effects, below). The same principle applies to penalties—a character taking two or more penalties of the same type applies only the worst one.

Trumpaladin isn't using any spells for his saving throws, so all of that is irrelevant. I don't see why you're so hard at understanding

>A bonus that isn’t named stacks with any bonus
>a paladin gains a bonus equal to her Charisma bonus (if any) on all saving throws
Checkmate, the paladin bonus is unamed

Look, if the divine grace bonus were a Resistance bonus, then sure, it wouldn't stack with a cloak. But it isn't a resistance bonus, it's an unnamed bonus. So there's no more conflict between divine grace and a cloak or a cloak and the ability score bonus

Why are you being such a dick tonight? The only reason I got in the contest with Torcuil is because he started it and it doesn't concern you. So why are you being an asshole to me and reading the rules wrong when I did nothing to you?

It's really not that big of an issue though. We all do shit that doesn't work under normal rules.
It seems as though the makers of the game were pretty keen on making sure shit didn't stack, not because they thought buffing saves would break the game (not an issue, just throw-out bigger monsters), but mainly because stacking negative penalties with magick could produce attacks so potent they'd 1-shot any creature.
>>51134
>unnamed bonus
interesting point.
>>51135
No hard feelings.
>reading the rules wrong
That's just how I've come to interpret them. I'm trying to get a better understanding of this as well.
Either way, you're allowed to do it anyway.
