Q 144 How much non-lethal damage do you heal up when using a cure spell? 1 for 1 or 2 for 1?
1 for 1, but this is completely unaffected by lethal damage (IE: cure minor wounds cures 1 nonlethal and 1 lethal, if you have damage of each kind, 1 lethal if you've just got lethal damage, and 1 nonlethal if you only have nonlethal)

you heal just as much as you do lethal, but you heal the non-lethal on top of the lethal, so thats 1d8+1 healing to lethal and non-lethal.
That's what we read. We were just wondering if it did anymore if you didn't have any lethal damage as well.

It does not, but remember, non-lethal damage heals naturally faster than lethal. 1 point per hour per level.
A player once asked me if there was any way to make a Tarrasque more evil... 3 sessions later he was stoned with D20s as the PC led an exidus out of the path of a Dire Tarrasque of Legendary Wonder.

Yup.


Q 145 If you are fighting a huge sized creature, and it has Combat Reflexes, how many tumble checks do you have to roll, and how many attacks of opportunity does the creature take if you fail any of them?

A145
movement is only a single provoking action -- meaning that a single creature can only take 1 AoO (regardless of combat expertise).  but you would need to roll a tumble check for each relevant square and each threatening opponent.  failure at any point stops your movement.
(or something like that)

Q146 Does Metamorphic Transfer let you gain the abilities of creatures that you are not changed into at the time (simple mode: would you retain [aka: able to use] the ability of a monster in human form?)

That's not quite right. You only need to make one tumble check to move up to one half of your movement rate. If you make that, you don't need to make another check unless you move further than one half your movement rate. If you fail, the creature gets the AoO just as you enter its reach (as normal). You do have to check separately for each opponent, though. Just not each square.

ah -- got it  :thumb

also, it's only when you go through an occupied square that a successful AoO stops your movement (see the DC 25 entry) -- at least, I think that's right.

Q149
Are there any psionic classes that advance BAB by +1 and Manifester level by +1, apart from level 2-10 Illithid slayer?
Monks are pretty much the best designed class ever.

A 149: A 6 lvl PrC from Lords of Madness. It's something along the lines of Divine Mind, but that isn't it. (Luckily.)

Q150
If you are hit by a disjunction, in which order are your items checked? It might be relevant if you have a cloak of resistance +5 and other save-boosters.
By clicking this link, you open a pop-up, but I get a eurocent for my current wish, the 5th book of the Wheel of Time series. Please note that this only works if you leave the pop-up opened till it has finished loading. Thank you!

Sanctified Mind, full BAB, but only 5/6 advancement.

Items Affected by Magical Attacks
Order(1) Item
1st Shield
2nd Armor
3rd Magic helmet, hat, or headband
4th Item in hand (including weapon, wand, or the like)
5th Magic cloak
6th Stowed or sheathed weapon
7th Magic bracers
8th Magic clothing
9th Magic jewelry (including rings)
10th Anything else
(1) In order from most likely to least likely to be affected.

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time.  I give you much fu.
Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie.

Well... you could perhaps use two different form-changing powers/spells at the same time. If the second one doesn't make you lose access to the supernatural abilities of your "original" form, you should still have the one from MM transfer from the first power/spell.
