Buff Adjustment Questions: Inspiring Command, Bard Inspire limits

[JoeElf]

Buff Adjustment Observations:

Good Hope in the Spell Adjustment section {morale bonus} stacks with Flagbearer (and Flagbearer *2 with Banner of Ancient Kings) {morale bonus} for damage, which is incorrect [but is correctly not stacking for attack bonus].

Inspiring Command {for the Leadership Subdomain from APG} in the Conferred Ability Adjustment section is missing: +2 insight bonus to attack, AC, CMD, skills (for 1 round for the recipient).

Bard: Inspire Courage in the Conferred Ability Adjustment section has a max of +4, but with Aasimar favored class bonus and Kitharodian Academy faction abilities Master Performer + Grand Master Performer, this can easily get over +7.


Here is the important part of what I have available in Authorized Packages:

Pathfinder RPG: Advanced Class Guide, Advanced Race Guide, Advanced Player's Guide
Pathfinder RPG: Bestiary 1, Bestiary 2, Bestiary 3, Campaign Setting #6, Campaign Setting #7, Pathfinder RPG Core, Rulebook Entry Path, Player Companion #10, Player Companion #16, Player Companion #17, Player Companion #18, Player Companion #19, Player Companion #20, Player Companion #21, Player Companion #22, Summoner's Sidekick, Pathfinder Unchained


Questions:
Is the Good Hope stacking on damage a bug?
Is the Inspiring Command domain power missing a bug? I have the APG, so it seems it should be available.
Is the Bard Inspire Courage limit supposed to be worked around with a Attack Bonus and Weapon Damage Bonus of the Morale type when your total is +5?
{I am a level 10 Aasimar with all FCB into Inspire Courage and the Banner of the Ancient Kings = +4 total already, and I would like to take Master Performer when I get to level 11, but that = +5}
Is Master Performer available as a feat, and if so, which product do I need to add?

The "Master Performer" feat appears to be from the 'Pathfinder Chronicles: Faction Guide' - this might be in Campaign Setting #4.
I'd report the "possible" bugs as bugs - this should get you an answer as to whether they are (sounds like bugs to me), and if so will get someone to look at fixing them.

Just FYI to the community:
I did some emailing with support, and they:
1. changed Good Hope so that it is now correctly a morale bonus (including for damage).
2. advised me to build my own tweak to enable the Inspiring Command subdomain power for Leadership (which I am not attempting to do).

I have yet to buy the Faction Guide in Campaign Setting #4 so I can't really say if Master Performer allows one to exceed the normal bonuses on bardic performances.

Resurrecting this thread.

I have a player in my game who is using Master Performer and a Dervish Sikke to increase his Inspire Courage buff on his bard.

He is level 7 and it is already at +4. He eventually wants to get a Banner of Ancient Kings and take the Grand Master Performer feat, which would bring his bonus to a +7 soon and eventually +8 by level 13. The OP is correct that the Conferred Ability Adjustments for Inspire Courage is capped at +4. Is there a way to remove the cap?

I opened the editor to look at Inspire Courage today, for a similar reason, my bard is 11/marshall 2, and expending a mythic point adds my tier, bring inspire courage to +5. As we have noted the cap is +4, but I need +5. I would love it if we can conspire to fix this issue. Any thoughts, anyone?

Create your own adjustments that have a higher bonus.
In the editor, use New (Copy) to copy the originals and increase the bonuses.
