Place your questions about ambigious wording here.

here's one

"on command" does that mean as a free action, or is it "at will" meaning as a standard action.

"On command" means a command word activates the ability I believe. This is a standard action that cannot be performed if you cannot speak.

that's only if it's a magic Item,
a construct that performs a particular action on command would be a free action to command it.

So someone using a 'Merciful' weapon would be required to spend a standard action to tell the thing to stop being so gentle?

Is "Character Optimization" ambigiously worded? :)

Is "Character Optimization" ambigiously worded? :)Certainly the word 'character' has several different meanings.
