Matt, I did add that to the paizo FAQ rules because it is a valid point. I'd want some clarification, if they're going to allow undine as a racial heritage it makes no sense to overlap and be redundant and waste another feat.

Good lord, the aquatic ancestry feat is poorly written.  The amphibious special quality gives the ability to breathe air.  Undine already have the ability to breathe air.  If it just didn't work right in conjunction with racial heritage, that would be understandable.  But it doesn't do what it's supposed to even when used in exactly the way expected.


Yeah, I woudn't expend two feats otherwise. But to keep my winter as she is to be able to cast underwater I can't see a better solution as the campaign requires to be under water the majority of the time so I need to be proficient in that and on land. Air bubble and other level 2 spells and below don't do much but last for a bit of time. When boss time comes around and black tentacles or something with tentacles starts throwing us around I want to be able to go down and fight it not shoot from afar

playing skulls & shackles and interested in a build that would be good for the campaign... any ideas?


i came up with a winter witch but then decided maybe a different class or race, i need to be able to navigate through water pretty well and on land. We already have a elf-druid, goblin rogue, bard, stormblood line and orc barb in the party.

is a bat or a raven a better familiar choice?

and if you had to take blindness/deafness or vomit swarm which would you find a solid choice?
