I know it's a pretty standard convention, but I wish the map numbering did not revert to A with the start of this book. I doubt many people will run book 2 or book 3 on its own, and it would make more sense to have the map numbered sequentially since it's all one big dungeon. So maps A through K instead of A-B-C-D-A-B-C-D-A-B-C. I totally agree. Very confusing.
I'm getting the maps from the PDFS I got from Paizo. I bought the physical hardcover that Paizo published as well. Those have the levels without repeating letters like the PDFs do. Why couldn't Paizo just update the PDFs with the way they did it in the hardcover? I'm sorry just going through alot and I just want stuff to go smoothly. When I bought the AP from Demiplane, I downloaded the 3 separate parts, not the one combined book. But they had the levels like the hardcover. I go to print the levels I need from the official Paizo PDFs but those have the repeating letters. Very confusing.
I bought the Abomination vaults hardcover to run. Each level is isa letter A for level 1, B for level 2, ect.. I bought the adventure path on Demiplane. It has a download of the PDF on Paizo. So I download the PDFs. My group is about to start part 2. I print out the maps for part 2 to make it easier for me and what should start with letter E starts with B. This will make it alot harder for me to run because you are'nt consistent with how you label the maps from the physical book to the PDF. Very upset. I have alot of stress going on in my life and I don't need more. I am not going to run the game anymore because of crap like this. I'm done.
That works, thanks
There's no mist stalker battle card. Looks like they missed one.It's under Elemental, Water. I saw that finally. Heaven forbid they put it under M for Mist stalker. You know, the actual name for the monster. Same thing happened when I was looking for Grothlut. I was looking under G for the name. But it was under F for Fleshwarp. The monster type, not the name. Why do they have to make it harder? Other monsters are by their name.
How about this? A set of 5 extra large flip Mats in a boxed set. Each side has a different level of the dungeon so you don't have to draw it out. 5 mats for the 10 levels. Maybe another mar with cemetery and cave area. Charge like 100 bucks. I think it will sell good. I know they'd have to be big Mats.
My group threw torches into the room with the giant flies. Smoked them out. They didn't know what was in there. So they flew out the trap door. I was thinking of having the flies attack them when the PCs get outside near the ruined boathouse. But would that be tougher for first level since it's out in the open.
This Sunday I start running Abomination Vaults AP. We have a Barbarian, a Cleric, A Ranger, and a Rogue. No arcane caster. Should I switch out the scrolls, and wands, and other items if they can only be used by a arcane caster? Or should I let them take them and sell them? Will the party be at a disadvantage without a arcane caster?
Tekken: Bloodline. New Netflix anime. Why does every character have a 90 degree shadow on their head no matter how the light is or how they are standing?
Someone on Twitter pointed out that this will come out on the anniversary of JRR Tolkien's death, September 2. Between that and the total disregard for the lore and history of the setting, it tells me all I need to know about how Amazon and the show runners feel about Tolkien's work and legacy.
Laziness is the reason they made everyone forget who Parker was. Now they can re tell the same stories they have been telling for literary decades with Peter's friends, ect. Finding out He is Spiderman. Now they don't have to think of anything new to do. So are they going to mind wipe everyone again when they find out again? Like I said before, no point in watching anything, seeing characters grow and develop if they can just take it away at anytime. What's the point?
Dirtypool, Spoiler: MJ and Ned learned Peter was Spiderman. All three of them grew closer because of it. MJ fell in love with Peter, accepting Peter for who He is. Spiderman and all. That's how they grew. Then they just reset it like none of that happened at all. As far as the necklace, someone else mentioned that for the mind wipes to work, all physical and digital records of Peter would have had to been wiped as well. Since at the end of the movie we see Ned on His phone and He isn't wondering who this strange guy is in pictures or texts, they did that. If I was an actor investing my heart into a character, seeing how the writers had my character grow and change,
only to have it be taken away like that, I'd be pretty upset.
What they did here makes me not want to invest in ANY more movies, books, comics or TV shows. What's the point of watching characters grow and change if they will just take away all that development in the blink of an eye? "We hope you enjoyed watching these characters learn and grow. Just kidding, we are taking all that away." Thanks Marvel.
Saw it opening night. I HATED what they did. Major spoilers below. Spoiler: I thought the whole thing was a big giant retcon. Now no one remembers Him, at all. Now they can do the same stories they been doing. Instead of coming up with something original. Have MJ fall back in love with Him, find out he is Spiderman, everything. Three movies worth of character development just flushed down the toilet. So what's the point of investing in character arcs if at any point they can just erase it like nothing happened to them?
I felt it was like a DM at a TTRPG say "ok, the last 3 sessions didn't happen. Restarting the campaign, again." Also, no one remembers Him. Don't Ned and MJ have pics and texts on their phones? Wouldn't they be asking who that person is? Plus all the physical records of Spidey. Aunt May dies. But Aunt May would have had some kind of insurance or will for Peter. No way he'd be hard up for money and have to go live in a crappy apartment.
Looks like things like slavery, ransoms, paranoia/xenophobia, and cannibalism are now forbidden traits in monsters. Mind you, not PCs, monsters. Illithid's literally put a parasite inside you that eats your brain and turns you into a Illithid. So doing that isn't evil now? WTF
