Just a quick question - I'm probably missing the really obvious, but I'm a bit confused by Table 12-2 (p 398). I get the "Total XP" column: you check the CR of your encounter to figure out your XP budget, which you then fill up with (for example), critters.
But what do the other three columns represent? They are under the "Individual XP" heading, and are labelled "1-3", "4-5" and "6+". I've searched thru the text and I can't find it referenced anywhere.
I'd really appreciate someone giving me a heads-up! (And I know I'm going to feel like a right goose! :) )
Cheers,
Phil

That's a quick reference for the amount of XP each party member receives, and the 1-3, 4-5, and 6+ is the party size.

There is a store up here in Alaska that has three.
If you like I could purchase it for you and send it off. USPS Priority Mail Flat rate is $13.95....
Then of course the price of the book.
PAYPAL would work as well so we would both be covered....

I am surprised that we are out. On Monday, I will have the warehouse guys do a check on our stock levels and make sure the correct amounts are in the system. Otherwise, it will be about two weeks before we are back in stock.

Thanks Sean I was able to order a new copy on ebay with a store in Kentucky that I have done business with before. I really appreciate the offer though.

I'm not sure this is the right forum, but:
Has anyone else noticed that the Prying Eyes (and Prying Eyes, Greater) spells are out of alphabetical order in the Rulebook?

Hi all,
I apologise if I'm posting this in the wrong spot, but I just had to say that I finally received my copy of the Pathfinder corebook today and I love it! I had ordered it some two months ago from Amazon(trying to be cheap and save money) simultaneously with the Bestiary... well, I got the Bestiary a couple days ago, but just finally got sick of waiting for Amazon to get the corebook back in stock that I cancelled the order with them and ordered direct from Paizo instead. Very satisified with Paizo-service by the way... I requested the 2-5 day USPS service... great packaging job.
What can I say that hasnt already been said? What a fantastic, beautiful book. I began my roleplaying career way back with the Red Boxed Basic D&D set... man, how that set fired up my imagination... still have it, too. I've had several other favourites over the years... Shadowrun, Call of Cthulhu, World of Darkness, a few others... and I've come across a few stinkers (World of Synnibar, anyone? Battlelords of the 23rd century?).
I was pretty excited when I heard about 4e coming out and like many others I ordered the PHB/DMG/MM gift set... but try as I might(and I really did try), I just couldnt get into it. It just wasnt the same, you know? Now, I'm not a "4e hater" or anything like that... part of me does kind of like the game(more because I *want* to like it for old time's sake than anything else, probably), and I think the new edition ultimately is doing what it was designed to do... namely, keep this beloved hobby of ours alive and attracting a new generation of gamers. I work at a college and I've seen some kids there with their 4e books being all young and geeky. Brings back fond memories.
But I think I was meant to be a Pathfinder. I can't wait to start getting my hands on some of that Golarion stuff... I usually make up my own worlds for my game, but it all sounds so cool.
And if it hasn't been said yet, let me say Wayne Reynolds is a *magnificent* artist! Don't ever let this guy get away! I'm a very visually oriented person and a book with crappy or even just bland, uninspired artwork will turn me off faster than anything else. Same goes for the Bestiary. There were a few illustrations that I felt were somewhat bland (the unicorn, the couatl, for example), but overall most of the artwork was really, really great. Like the cheetah and the tiger... and the genies... and the lillend azata, mraowr! and the aboleth! One question though, what's with the change in appearance of the troll? Surely it's not a "WotC property issue" kind of thing since wasnt the longtime D&D version of the troll taken from some novel or another? Just curious, it's still a pretty frightening beast of a monster. Wouldnt catch me wandering around in troll country, that's for damn sure.
Anyway, thanks for letting me add my voice to the Paizo army and thanks to all the Paizo gods and goddesses for renewing my love for my favourite game. Now if I could only find some players out here!

For Monks, what's the point of using Monk weapons? The unarmed attacks will yield more damage in the end, otherwise they are equal with the weapons. Shouldn't the monk get some bonus dmg when using monk weapons?

The biggest thing is special materials for DR I believe

Also slashing and piercing types to overcome certain DRs.

Is there an erratta on the description of Extra Channel, as it is the only "extra" that cannot be taken more than once, if I read it right .
[b] Special:[b] If a paladin with the ability to channel positive energy takes this feat, she can use lay on hands four additional times a day, but only to channel positive energy .
It does not say: You can gain Extra Channel multiple times. Its effectas stack.
Are we dissing the Cleric a second time ; first low skill points and now with Channel?
