4.APG
武僧的正觉僧(ki mystic)变体:天地炉鼎(Ki Mystic)能力看起来修改了气池能力,但它并没有备注“这个能力修改了气池”(This ability alters ki pool)。这是否意味着天地炉鼎给的气池是一个只能用于此变体后续能力的第二气池,而武僧也会照常获取原版气池?不。当APG这本书写出来的时候,“这个能力修改了XXX”(this alters)还没有作为术语出现,所以这本书里的正觉僧等变体并没有相关的术语说明,而按照现在的规范用语标准,这句话应该存在。
天地炉鼎能力修改了气池。在3级时,正觉僧获得一个等同于感知调整值大小的气池,并且可以用于此变体的后续能力。在4级起,这个气池将变成一个拥有【1/2武僧等级+感知调整值+2】点气的气池(正觉僧不会获得第二个气池】,并且他可以将其用于正常武僧的气池用途和变体中提到的那些用途。
劇透 - :
Monk ki mystic archetype: The ki mystic ability seems like it alters the monk’s ki pool ability, but it doesn’t say “This ability alters ki pool.” Is this because the ki mystic’s ki pool is a separate second pool that can only be used for the powers described in the ki mystic archetype, and the monk then also receives the regular ki pool that works as normal?
No. When Advanced Player’s Guide was written, archetypes were new and the “this alters” language didn’t exist yet, meaning archetypes in this book, including ki mystic, never include it, even when they should by current standards. The ki mystic ability alters ki pool. At 3rd level, a ki mystic gets a ki pool of Wisdom modifier points that can be used for the abilities listed in the archetype. At level 4, this upgrades to a ki pool of 1/2 monk level + Wisdom modifier + 2 points, which is a single ki pool (the ki mystic does not gain two) that can be used in all the usual ways a monk can use ki, plus those mentioned in the archetype.
