Way to make an Su ability an Ex?
« on: June 27, 2012, 10:07:58 PM »
For example, if a character had Shapechange as an Su ability, is there a way to make the change an Ex ability?

I'm guessing "Become Pun-Pun" isn't the answer you're looking for? I can't think of much else... This is one of the tricks used in Pun-Pun's "ascension", though. So you might go dig through that thread to find out how they do it.

Breaking The Core ... couldn't do it.

One of the Epic Spell Seeds "ought" to be able,
and in general Epic Spells "should" be able.
iirc - Mythal Seed was one of the things Pun-pun could use.

Hmm.. I've never looked at that.

It doesn't work as RAW. Fast Wild Shape is a Template granted Ability not a Class granted  Ability and so does not qualify for Master of Many Forms. I digress..

But thanks for the link :)

The ECL 5 build is an older, slower form. It doesn't need the MoMF entry any longer.
