Actually there are two problems, then...

Problem A) The Kensai Archetype for the Magus grants proficiency with one martial or exotic weapon. This should work the same as having EWP, currently it does not.

Problem B) The Aldori Dueling Sword is finessable and is therefore eligable for the "Agile" magical weapon quality. This currently throws up a validation error.

Page reference, please? That's not what the campaign setting hardcover says, and as far as I know, the campaign setting hardcover is the latest printing of the Aldori Dueling Sword.

Okay, that's a bug.

As a workaround, you can go to the Personal tab, and add the Feats adjustment on the Permanent adjustments table there, and set it to +1 feats, then buy the EWP feat normally, and select Aldori Dueling Sword.

However, the wielder requires both the Exotic Weapon Proficiency (Aldori Dueling Sword) and the Weapon Finesse feat to use them, so I am not at all sure it supports giving the weapon the quality, as the weapon itself is not normally a Finesse weapon.

Data Error: The "Pot, Iron" is in HeroLab weighing 10 lbs. It is in the Core Rulebook at 4 lbs.

Here are the relevant quotes for the Aldori Sword and the Agile Weapon quality

Inner Sea World Guide p.290

Quote:

Aldori Dueling Sword: These slightly curved
swords measure just over 3 feet in length. An Aldori
dueling sword may be used as a Martial Weapon
(in which case it functions as a longsword), but if
you have the feat Exotic Weapon Proficiency (Aldori
dueling sword), you can use the Weapon Finesse feat to
apply your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength
modifier on attack rolls with an Aldori dueling sword
sized for you, even though it isn’t a light weapon.
You can also wield an Aldori dueling sword in
two hands in order to apply 1-1/2 times your
Strength bonus to damage.

Pathfinder Society Field Guide p. 50

Quote:

Agile (Melee Weapon Special Ability)
Aura moderate transmutation; CL 7th; Price +1 bonus
Description
Agile weapons are unusually well balanced and responsive.
A wielder with the Weapon Finesse feat can choose to apply
her Dexterity modifier to damage rolls with the weapon in
place of her Strength modifier. This modifier to damage is
not increased for two-handed weapons, but is still reduced
for off-hand weapons. The agile weapon enhancement can
only be placed on melee weapons that are usable with the
Weapon Finesse feat.

Maybe I'm missing something but these seem to work together. Please let me know if I'm wrong.

Okay, we're reading the same version of the Aldori Dueling Sword - where does it say that the sword is always a finesse weapon - it is only a finesse weapon if you specifically take a proficiency in that weapon, not if you're counting it as a longsword, and using your Martial Weapon Proficiency: All.

Mathias · January 12th, 2012, 07:20 PM

Okay, it looks like there was an issue with magical versions of the aldori dueling sword - I've gotten that fixed for the next update.

The 3rd Level Flowing Monk archetype ability, Flowing Dodge, should replace Fast Movement - it looks like it's leaving Fast Movement active.

It would be helpful to have the DC's for the spells on the wands being displayed as well as the spell descriptions for them too.. as well as the spell descriptions for potions, wands and scrolls. Right now there is none unless it is a predetermined one and not a custom made one.
