Boon Companion quick fix for Rangers.

Pezmerga · 10:02 AM

As per the ruling at http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards...nion&page=1#34

This is a fix to make it so your Ranger can ignore the -3 to effective druid level with the Boon Companion feat.

Copy the feat, make your own, add this:

Code:

if (#levelcount[Ranger] > 3) then
 diff += 3
endif

replace the other feat and save it!
Seems to work just fine. Though I only have tested it with a Ranger and 1 non ranger class etc in the builder.

Cool, thanks.

So... how could I adapt this so it also works for my Cleric with the Animal domain? Does it need changed?

Try this, bolded is what I added.

Code:

Phase:First    Priority:450

     doneif (field[usrChosen1].ischosen = 0)

~ Get our HD, compare that to the class level of our chosen class, getting the difference.
var bonus as number
var diff as number
diff = hero.tagcount[Hero.HitDice] - field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cTotalLev].value

if (field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cAnimStart].value = 4) then
 diff += 3
endif

~ Define our bonus as 4 or the difference, whichever is smaller.
bonus = minimum(diff, 4)

~ We can't have a negative bonus, so make it the bonus or 0, whichever is higher.
bonus = maximum(bonus, 0)

if (field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cAnimStart].value <> 0) then
 hero.childfound[cAnimClass].field[CompClLev].value += bonus
 hero.childfound[cAnimComp].field[CompLevBas].value += bonus

elseif (field[usrChosen1].chosen.field[cArcFStart].value <> 0) then
~ Add the bonus to our companion/familiar level.
 hero.childfound[cArcFClass].field[CompClLev].value += bonus
 hero.childfound[cArcFamil].field[CompLevBas].value += bonus
endif

As far as I can tell it should cover most cases (Ranger, Cleric with Animal Domain, and Druid with Animal Domain) and work properly. I haven't extensively tested it though.

Works great for both of the ones I tested! (Cleric with Animal domain and Ranger) Thanks! You're awesome!

I tried to do a copy of the feat, but the editor says that the file is uncopyable because of being a supplement book. is there anything i can do to fix it?

Sort of yes. Use it as a template to create a new feat using the old one to do a copy/paste from. Not really that many things to copy over.
