language question 263#
If a character who learned undercommon fluently through a phasebook takes the outcast status, will the game identify it as a 'free' language and take it away from the INT modifier cap?
Same question for abyssal/infernal when pacting.

I believe the Outcast bonus is only at creation...not sure about the pacts
Re: language question 263#
You do learn undercommon when you take the outcast path, can confirm.
AFAIK, no, it doesn't refund the language.

Re: language question 263#
I do know that, say you were still learning Undercommon as a beginner and took the Outcast status then, the system will ignore that you were trying to learn it through a phrasebook and give it for free.
But, I guess that doesn't really answer your question that well now, does it. Sorry.

Well, they can, but it's really muffled.

Re: language question 263#
The normal rule is: any languages learned upon creation do not count against your int. Why outcast would be any different, I have no idea. I strongly suspect that it does not count against your total languages.

Re: language question 263#
It technically does refund it to you. How the language system works is that if you try to learn a language when your int does not allow you to learn another, it won't block you from learning the language, it'll overwrite whatever extra language you learned first.
So if you have 14 int and learned infernal and abyssal, then tried to learn celestial, it would remove infernal from you when you've completed learning celestial.
If you have a language from a class or path, it can't overwrite it. So yes, it technically does open up a language slot.

Re: language question 263#
It removes the first learned language, so if it wasn't undercommon, you'll lose what you learned first.

I didn't know we could forget languages! That's actually really cool.
