Wayfinders and Ioun Stones

bumpy703 · September 3rd, 2016, 10:31 AM

How would a guy go about socketing the Ioun Stone into a wayfinder? Is this a requirement to activate the Resonating Power in the Ioun Stone? I'm trying to equip a Dusty Rose Ioun stone and gain the +2 insight to CMB/CMD though I'm only seeing 1 added and suspect it has something to do with the socketing?

Currently, my Wayfinder in HeroLab says "empty" with no way that I can see to change that. Any thoughts?

I want to ammend my post a bit:

I figured out that you have to place the ioun stone in the wayfinder as if it were a bag, which I did. However, I did not see an increase in my CMD/CMB, and the light spell of the wayfinder was removed.

It worked for me, before socketing it check your CMD/CMB and insure you dont already have an insight bonus.

Also, make sure the Dusty Rose Prism is equipped (checked) in the Magic tab.

My GM for our pathfinder game has made the ruling that the wayfinders hold 4 stones instead of the usual 1 each. I have gone in and edited the max on the container of a unique wayfinder to 4. That part was easy.

The question now is that the GM actually has unique rules for the ioun stones in wayfinders in that he roles a random magic attribute each time you socket it, and it is unique to each wayfinder.

I have a Dark Blue Rhomboid that gives the usual Alertness, but for me also gives Light Fortification as long as the wayfinder is on me. How would i go about showing this as an active magical effect? I have the text edited to be a unique stone, but I have in no way been able to add it to the "in Effect" list of my character sheet.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.
