Re: [pcgen] RESOLVED - Animal Companion Feats

 

Hi Luke,

For those following along, this is a user misunderstanding, not a PCGen error.

Master Level and Companion levels are completely different.

As seen at: http://www.d20srd.org/srd/classes/druid.htm#theDruidsAnimalCompanion

A 6th level master/DRUID grants +4 Bonus 8-sided HD to the Base Creature existing HD. Hawk starts with 1, which means +4 is 5HD. 5 HD grants 2 Feats in total.

Do not adjust the Companion Level - HD/LEVEL are the Same for Class/Race. a 5th level Animal is a 5HD creature. The CLASS LEVEL reference is the DRUID level, not the Companion level.

Cheers,

Andrew

I tried duplicating it and still having the same problem. First thing I noticed is that when creating an Animal Companion for a 6th level druid the animal companion was created at level 5 instead of level 6. Bumping it up to level 6 as it should be prompts for another feat. Are levels and HD tied together for animal companions?

Doing a quick check on 6.07.01-dev

The hawk has 5 HD - should be 2 feats only; 1 feat at 1st, 2nd at 3rd.

I created a High Elf Level 6 Druid, and the hawk (I get a 5HD hawk). I have exactly 2 feats to select and one Bonus feat "Weapon Finesse". Initial check looks fine to me.

Still looks good on reload. I don't see any obvious problem.

Cheers,

Andrew

Hello. I'm noticing a discrepancy with the number of feats PCGen wants my animal companion to have.

I'm playing version 3.5 and I have a level 6 Hawk companion for my level 6 Half-Elf Druid. Hawks start with 1HD and since he's level 6 he gets 4 bonus HD bring him to 5 total. This should mean he has his base feats for being a hawk, 1 additional feat from level 1 and 1 more feat on top of that for hitting 3HD. His next feat should come when he hits 6HD which isn't until he's level 9. PCGen wants him to have that feat now at level 6.

I'm running PCGen version 6.06.01 on Windows 10. Thanks.
