#3011 Spiritual Ally Spell

[Cheryl Mackland]

I think there is something up with the calculation for att and damage of the spiritual ally on the Spells tab. It could also be my math :-)
I have a BAB of 9 and a WIS bonus of +3
The text reads:
"The spiritual ally uses your base attack bonus (gaining extra attacks if your base attack bonus is high enough) plus your Wisdom bonus when it makes a melee attack."
The program is showing my attack at +17 and I believe it should be +12

The damage text reads:
"When the spiritual ally hits, it deals 1d10 points of force damage + 1 point of damage per 3 caster levels (maximum +5 at 15th level)."
The program is showing my damage as 1d8+4 and I believe it should be 1d10+4

Thanks for all you do,
Cheryl

I will get the character file attached when I got home from work. Unfortunately, I don't have access right now.

Thanks for the report!
I've fixed the damage dice for 9.17.
I'm seeing the correct attack (+12) value on the sheet when I make a simple L12 Cleric with 16 wis. Can you attach a character data file?
Hm. I want to include the iterative attacks in the description somehow. (don't see a simple way to do it rhough)

Here is my character data file.

Ah, the spell goes off casting stat, so I'm guessing you have an impressive Charisma? (not at computer atm) The spell is from CRB, when Clerics were the only ones who could cast it, hence Wis in the description. I thinkthere's an FAQ about it somewhere.

[Cheryl Mackland]

Oh dang it I just went with WIS and didn't even think it meant prime stat. So my CHA bonus is +8 and that would work out to +17. So if it should be using CHA then all is right. I did look for some errata and the best I could find was http://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fn#v5748eaic9qlk
