| Oct 21, 2017 at 17:13 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | @topquark Yeah, maybe this isnt the place to try to address this controversy, but that FAQ entry on Augment Summoning is the usual counterargument, despite that FAQ entry mentioning no other feats and not saying its ruling applies generally. (And while spell-like abilities are like spells except, one of the ways they aren't like spells is that they're not spells. Also see here. By the way, I find that FAQ entry as confusing, distasteful, and egregious as, I think, KRyan finds the one about wands!) | |

| Oct 21, 2017 at 16:04 | comment | added | Topquark | I don't see anything in that FAQ that says Augment Summoning is special. The obvious reading is that SLAs can benefit from spell-affecting feats in general even though items can't. This is also the obvious reading of non-FAQ rules, because SLAs are defined to "work just like spells except [...]", and feats aren't listed in the exceptions. (I realize that other people disagree with me about obviousness, and that this has been debated before without consensus.) | |
| Oct 21, 2017 at 15:35 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | @KRyan Is your concern the wands thing? I agree that's obnoxious, and I tried to address that (saying, "despite Wands on Activation saying that a creature using a wand 'cast[s] a spell from a wand'"). What sort of stronger position do you recommend? (Also, I'll totally support an answer that just straight-up takes that stronger position instead.) | |
| Oct 21, 2017 at 15:26 | comment | added | KRyan | I find this answer is lacking in that it does not address the underlying rules at all. This stealth errata-nerf in the FAQ is a noxious practice and it deserves being called out where relevant. This “answer” they provide has absolutely no basis in the actual rules. | |

Pearl of power. Other stuff.

@hopper Add pearls of power to the question, and I'll address those in the answer. ;-) However, if you've a specific and brand new question about the functionality of the spell dimension door, that should be posed as its own question. (If you do pose that question, please explain in that question why you'd want to use dimension door to transport yourself two feet into the air!)
