异能冒险(Occult Adventures)



Battle Host: What exactly does it mean that the battle host's implement is immune to the broken condition? Can it never be destroyed? Can you use it over and over again with abilities that break your weapon for a benefit? 

In this particular instance, what it does is slightly different than the usual meaning of “immune.” It means that the implement suffers no penalties, even if it becomes broken. It can still gain the broken condition, and, it still counts as having the broken condition for the purpose of effects that escalate if you have the broken condition (such as effects that give the broken condition, or destroy the target if it already has the broken condition). As usual, you can't use an effect that breaks a weapon if it already has the broken condition. An explanation will be included in the next errata.

Emotion Components: Does the shaken condition from effects like Intimidate count as “an effect with the fear descriptor” for the purpose of blocking spells with emotion components? 

Yes, they do. It should say “fear effect,” and for most descriptors, these wordings are sometimes used interchangeably. For instance, an ability that protects you from effects with the charm descriptor would generally protect you from a harpy's song (which is a charm effect).

Emotional Conduit and Dedication: The third level spell is listed as cure light wounds. Should it be cure serious wounds? 

Yes, it should be cure serious wounds. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Emotive Block: Should emotive block have the emotion descriptor? The spell says it does, but then it's a non-harmless emotion effect, so it blocks all spellcasting. 

It should not have the emotion descriptor. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Kineticist Favored Class Bonuses and Elemental Overflow: The elf favored class bonus mentions it applies when elemental overflow applies, but the dwarf and half-orc do not. Should they also apply only when elemental overflow applies? 

Yes, they should both apply only when elemental overflow applies, like the elf favored class bonus. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Kineticist Gather Power: I know that gather power can only be used on blast wild talents, but which of the things that add to blast wild talents can I reduce with gather power? Infusions are clear in their description, but the others are not. 
操念使念力凝聚(Gather Power)能力:我知道操念使只能把念力凝聚应用到念袭(Blast)类原力上,但我究竟可以用它减少念袭原力中的哪些东西造成的过载?注能(Infusions)能力在这里说的很清楚,但操念使的其他能力则没有。

You can reduce infusions, metakinesis, and even the 1 extra burn for using a blast you don't possess with omnikinesis. All of these add to the blast's cost. You still can't reduce utility talents, including the extra burn cost for swapping out a utility talent with omnikinesis, unless you use internal buffer instead.
你可以降低注能,超念(Metakinesis),以及某个你使用万力全能(Omnikinesis)能力来发动一个自己不了解的念袭造成的1点额外过载。但你仍然不能通过这个能力降低通用原力(Utility Wild Talents)造成的过载,以及通过万力全能改变一个通用原力类型而造成的额外超载,除非你使用储念器(Internal Buffer)能力。 


 
Kineticist Telekinetic Invisibility: A lot of things in the talent's description seem to imply that I can only use this talent on myself, but then again, it also says it's like invisibility, which isn't personal only. Which is correct? 
操念使念动遁形(Telekinetic Invisibility)原力:虽然原力的说明部分看起来告诉我操念使只能把这个原力用在自己身上,但在这个原力的描述上又说它如同法术隐形术,那么我到底能不能把它施放在其他人身上?

You can only use it on yourself.
不能,你只能用在自己身上。

Kineticist Torrent Infusion: This infusion seems to be missing lightning blast as an associated blast. Is that intentional? 

Lightning blast should be included. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Medium Favored Locations: The medium class says that spirits can be channeled from any appropriate location, not just from the list of favored locations, but is that true, or can I only channel from one of the favored locations? 
通灵者降灵地点:在通灵者的职业描述中提到他们可以在如何合适的地点降灵特定的英灵而非仅仅是在后面的英灵描述中提到的偏好降灵地点。那么,我是可以任意合适的地点召唤英灵,还是说我只能在英灵描述中提到的偏好降灵地点降灵?

As the class says, you can channel from any appropriate location, and the favored locations are just a place to start. There might be times where you don't have access to all six legends, but a medium, either PC or NPC, should generally be able to access a legend if they can come up with a good conceptual tie between the legend and a location he can find or even set up himself. For instance, a medium could go hunt a deer and then use that location to channel a champion spirit of a legendary hunter.
按照通灵者职业的描述,你可以在任何合适的地点降灵——英灵描述中提到的偏好降灵地点只是给你一些提示而不是限制。有时候通灵者确实很难找到完美的通灵地点让他尝试降灵六职阶的英灵,但一个通灵者(无论他是PC或是NPC)通常只要能找到一个与他想要降灵的英灵在职阶的概念上有所吻合的区域,甚至自行设计这样的一个区域就可以将它作为合适的降灵地点,举例来说,一个想要召唤曾经留下过猎杀猛兽的英武传说的斗士英灵的通灵者可以前去参加狩猎,并使用猎场作为他降灵该斗士英灵的合理地点。

Mental Block: Does the word “activated” in the spell's description scope only over feats, or does it also apply to extraordinary, supernatural, and spell-like abilities too? 

It should apply to all of them. It only stops them from using active abilities, and it doesn't stop passive abilities at all. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Phantoms and Armor: In two different places in the spiritualist class, the rules are in conflict. In one place it says phantoms can wear armor, and in the other it says they can't. Which is correct? 
魅影与护甲:关于还是的魅影能不能使用护甲,在唤魂师职业介绍中说可以但是在魅影本身的介绍中又说不行,到底是行还是不行?

Phantoms can't wear armor; that sentence was meant to say they can wear other magic items. This will be reflected in the next errata.
魅影不能穿护甲,并且,这句话本来是要表明它们可以穿用任何其他的魔法物品。

Psychic Bloodline Sorcerer: Psychic bloodline's bloodline arcana changes the psychic bloodline's spells from arcane spells to psychic spells. Clearly this means that a psychic bloodline sorcerer qualifies for abilities that require the “ability to cast psychic spells” and not abilities that require “the ability to cast arcane spells”, but what about abilities that require an “arcane spellcasting class” like the half-elf's arcane training, where you might be selecting the class before you even took levels in sorcerer and chose the psychic bloodline? Does this apply generally to abilities that change my spellcasting between arcane, divine, and psychic?

This particular combination leads to a complex interaction; at the time of the half elf ability, the term “arcane spellcasting class” was unambiguous because archetypes were new and we were still years away from any archetypes or bloodlines that changed which type of spells a character casts. Essentially, a half-elf with the arcane training ability that chooses sorcerer is choosing “the arcane spellcasting class sorcerer”. If she then takes levels in psychic bloodline sorcerer, she isn't taking levels in her favored class. The ability would still have a small effect, though, in that since she had no levels in her favored class, she would still count as a 1st-level “arcane spellcasting sorcerer” and be able to activate arcane scrolls accordingly (whereas normally she would need Use Magic Device to use arcane or divine scrolls even if they were on her spell list).

This is the first time to our knowledge of this principle being necessary, but it would apply in other situations that switch your type of magic and even beyond that, such as if an alternate racial trait restricted your favored class bonus to “a single class that grants proficiency in heavy armor” and you picked fighter but then took levels in fighter with an archetype that traded out proficiency in heavy armor, your chosen archetype of fighter would not be your favored class.

Also, you could use this principle in reverse. If the half-elf ability requested you to choose a psychic spellcasting class instead of arcane, you could pick sorcerer expecting to take the psychic bloodline, but the racial trait in that case wouldn't do anything until you had actually taken levels in sorcerer with the psychic bloodline, since sorcerer isn't normally psychic without the psychic bloodline.

Psychics and overwhelming presence: Rapport psychics receive overwhelming presence as a 9th level discipline spell, but it appears as a 4th level spell on the psychic spell list. Should it be a 9th level spell for psychics? 

Yes, it should be a 9th level spell. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Sensate Fighter: The Sensate Fighter doesn't mention trading out Weapon Training 1, but it gains an extremely similar ability at 5th level, the same level as Weapon Training 1. Should it also trade out Weapon Training 1? 
感知者战士变体:感知者战士变体的变体能力似乎没有替换掉武器训练1,单他在5级时获得了一个类武训的制空圈(Centered Senses)能力,这个变体能力究竟是否取得武器训练1?

Yes. This will be reflected in the next errata.

Spiritualists and bestow curse: The spiritualist receives bestow curse as both 3rd and 4th level spells. Which is correct? 
唤魂师法术:在唤魂师的法术列表中降咒(Bestow Curse)同时存在于3环和4环,它究竟是几环法术?

It should be a 3rd level spell. This will be reflected in the next errata.
降咒是3环唤魂师法术。
