Purple Dragon Knight AB from Rallying Cry does not stack w/ Combat Riding feat AB.

Post by cowboy » Wed Feb 12, 2020 1:18 am

Hello there!

As title the ab bonus from Rallying Cry does not stack with the AB bonus from Rallying Cry from what I have observed so far.

I am a Valiant, which means my 10th level of PDK provides +3 AB when I activate rallying cry.

I am only getting +2 AB when on horseback.

I have the Combat Riding feat which provides +1 AB when on horseback, so, my AB goes up by 2 when that activates instead of adding up to 4.

It is still a gain but it is not a cumulative total.

I don't think that's intended.

Anyway it's posted here.

Combat Riding + Rallying Cry = +2
Rallying Cry = +3
?

Did you check the combat log? The character sheet often lies.

A level 10 Valient Knight should get +3 Rallying Cry.

Temporarily back to Arelith and currently Lilliana Snowfire.

If you have unfinished business with Ultrianan, let me know! Arabella has been rolled.

Yus, I was asking the OP if those were the numbers she ended up with.

It would add +2, but it would not go to +3. For example.

When I am on foot I get +3 AB from cry. I will go from 42 to 45.

When I am on horseback I have 43 (+1 from combat riding).

But when I do rallying cry I only get to 45. I should be 46.

The AB types are not stacking, but are bottoming out to the same as if I was on foot.

Did you check the combat log for the same results? The character sheet is very buggy.

Are you hitting an AB increase cap?

Nope.

...and it does not seem I am getting the extra AB. I'll check again, even in the hidden bonuses in chat log, but I'll check.

I am only theoretically at +7 AB in my stuff from +4 from weapon 2/3 from rallying cry/riding.

That means I can increase by 13 or so more AB.
