Special Rules

Parent page Kineticist

Some rules don't come up that often but can be vital to understand when they do.

Made of an Element: Some kineticist abilities work on creatures made of an element. A creature made of rock, sand, or dirt is made of earth, but a creature wearing metal armor wouldn't be considered a metal creature. If it's unclear whether a creature is made of an element, the GM decides.

Overlapping Kinetic Auras: A creature that's in multiple kinetic auras at the same time is subject to the special effects of all of them. As normal for duplicate effects, a creature can't be affected by multiple copies of the same effect. For instance, if an enemy were in two fire kineticists' auras, and both kineticists had the fire kinetic aura gate junction, the creature would gain only the higher weakness from the two auras.
