Couple Class Questions....

[Lil' Bo Theifus]

Monks ----> Do they get AC from high Dexterity? Or just Wisdom? Also, is there any way to make a monk Dual Wield his fists?

Rangers ---> Says in the manual they start the game with both Two-Weapon Fighting and Ambidexterity, but when you level up and get new feats both of these are empty in the feat selection screen (I mean it looks like you don't have the feat.) Can you select them again for more bonuses?

Aasimar ---> What exactly is 'Sunscorch'?

General ---> Say I find an item that is NOT usable by a specific class (lets say Ranger for instance) but I really want my Ranger to have it. If I get him a level in some class that CAN use the item will he then be able to use it?

Thanks in advance...

1) Monks get ac bonus from BOTH dexterity and wisdom. No, you can dual wield fists. That's already factored into the BAB and damage bonuses.

2) As far as I know, taking the ambidexterity and two weapon fighting feats again for the ranger does NOT add any additional bonuses. Those feats are active even for a starting character. Not sure WHY they appear untagged. BUG?

3) Sunscorch is a spell / special ability that causes fire damage and blinds your opponenets. VERY useful against trolls and undead. [img]smile.gif[/img]

4) It depends on how the item is scripted. If it is described as usable only by class A, then adding Class A as a second class to your character should allow your character to use that item. If it is described as not usable by your character class, then adding a second class probably won;t solve that problem; but i am not sure.

1. Monks gain dex from both wis and Dex, however, they don't lose the wisdom bonus to dex when surrounded, like you would from Dex. They automatically dual wield fists, but it does not change number of attacks.
2. The ranger feats are known as "virtual feats", as they get them for free,
but need to meet the qualifications first, in this case light or no armor.
3. Aasimar sunscorch is a racial ability. it is simply a low level fire based spell, handy for dispatching trolls.
4. yes, if you add a level of a class that can use that item, you can then use it. However, most items are not good enough to water down a character by taking a level elsewhere just to use an item.
