Gift of the Diety for Hierophant

Unread post by Steve »

Gift of the Deity
Type of Feat: Class Ability
Prerequisites: Hierophant 9
Specifics: Your visage of the deity line of spells are now automatically empowered by your deity.
Use: Automatic
Greater Visage of the Deity is (for Good):
Drawing upon the powers of her deity, the cleric imbues herself with divine gifts. In addition to gaining a +1 natural armor bonus, Damage Resistance 10/magic, and Spell Resistance 25, the cleric also gains the following benefits based on her alignment.

If Good:

Resistance 10 to acid, cold, and electricity.
Immunity to disease.
+4 to saving throws vs. poison.
+2 to Dexterity and Intelligence.
+4 to Strength, Constitution, Wisdom, and Charisma.
A blue aura.
Does Gift of the Deity thus make Greater Visage of the Deity grant:

Drawing upon the powers of her deity, the cleric imbues herself with divine gifts. In addition to gaining a +1 natural armor bonus, Damage Resistance 15/magic, and Spell Resistance 37, the cleric also gains the following benefits based on her alignment.

If Good:

Resistance 15 to acid, cold, and electricity.
Immunity to disease.
+6 to saving throws vs. poison.
+3 to Dexterity and Intelligence.
+6 to Strength, Constitution, Wisdom, and Charisma.
A blue aura.

And do these Spell-bump Ability Bonuses stack with Item bonuses?

Yeah, should be about those bonuses. I believe it only modifies the bonuses you get from being of a certain alignment. No, of course they don't stack with item bonuses. Spells + items never really stack. Not even spell + spell stacks, usually. Saves is an exception.

The drawback is that it's just round/level, since its a level 9 spell...

Yeah, it would max out at 3 minutes at lvl 30 (well, one could technically get 3 minutes 24 seconds if you want that build).

Do you think the resistances would stack with Aasimar native and/or resistances from Dragonslayer PrC?

It won't. The log is sometimes strange, listing the resistance twice giving the impression that both resistances are used but in reality the best one is used.

Are you sure resistances don't stack? Or is it that spell-granted resistances do not stack with innate, Race/Class/PrC resistances, which do stack?
