I've been reading about the innate saving throw bonuses for the different races with interest recently, as 15 years ago these things totally passed me by. I've read conflicting accounts of how the bonuses are updated, with some sources saying that they are calculated based on your Con score at character creation and never change, and others that they update according to your Con at level up.
Does anyone know which is true? Also, if the latter, is it calculated from your natural Con score or will they be affected by stat modifiers like equipment or spell effects? I ask speficially as I'm planning a gnome cleric/illusionist, and I'd like to give him the Claw of Kazgaroth, but obviously I won't want my natural saving throws gimped by the Con penalty.
