As desperate as I want to have those minis, they are a bit too heavy on the price for me...
Thank you!

The witch receives BREW POTION as a bonus feat.
Does she still need to meet the requirements for this feat (Caster Level 3rd)?
If so, she can't take it at character creation. She needs to wait until Level 3.

Do(n't) bonus feats generally need to meet requirements...?

Should I worry because this shipment hasn't arrived yet?
Could be Xmas-postal-chaos...
Here are the details:

...of the book you're currently reading - write it down (together with booktitle). I start:

"There was something inhuman about this man, who now swayed to and fro like some great forest beast while his mirthless laughter boomed out again."
- The Horrorstories of Robert E. Howard

So, I started up a Falcon Hollow Campaign with players new to the PF-System. As it happens, they totally love the system and want more...
I haven't planned for more than REVENGE OF THE KOBOLD KING, and decided it is time to switch over to an AP.
I decided for the CC, starting with BROKEN MOON.

Here are my ideas so far...

Thanx, for being that patient while reading all of this lenghty post. I really hope someone here can give me some advice.

Would it be possible that Paizo registers their forums with www.tapatalk.com for free? I use this App often and its awesome for using messageboards on a mobile device. Thanx for considering. :)

Ok. I started with some new players. We finished Crown of the Kobold King, they just freed Ulizmilla from Kreeds dungeon (my design), where they also found hints pointing to the fact that Kreed is doing buisness with Baron Vendikon. Now we are about to play Tower of the last Baron. Afterwards I wanted to go to Cheliax, because..ah well, doesn't matter really. I now want to know from someone who played CoT already, if I could start that AP with part 3... What did I miss in the first parts what I have to incorporate into the story?
I plan to let the PCs find the Crux-Box at Piren's Bluff in Baron Vendikons possessions.
Any help is really appreciated! :)

True Death (Su) :(...)Spellcasters attempting to bring a creature back from the dead using raise dead or similar magic must make a caster level check with a DC equal to 15 + the assassin's level or the spell fails and the material component is wasted. (...)

Does the DC for that caster level check increase, if the assassine has meanwhile gained a level, or is the level the assassin had while killing the victim the one whichalways counts?

Hi there.
I found the "D&D Miniatures—Dragon Collector's Set by Wizards of the Coast" in my sidecart, but didn't pre-order it (or can'r remember it).
I don't need this set and don't know how to delete it.
Could you please tell me how to delete it from my sidecart?! Thanx!

Any idea when we get an update on the modules which are planned after January 2012?

Wow!

Comic

... can that skeleton still use its attacks with its wings?
It can't fly anymore, but I am not sure about those attacks.

Rules say, that it retains all the natural weapons, manufactured weapon attacks, and weapon proficiencies of the base creature, except for attacks that can’t work without flesh.

And I am not sure if it retains some of those Special Abilities:

Blindsense
Dragon Senses
Immunity to Acid
Immunity to Paralysis
Immunity to Sleep
Low-Light Vision.
Swamp Stride
SR (in case of an older Dragon)

Two questions:

1) Does the mist created by the RED SHROUD ability move with the assassin? Is it centered on the assassin?

2) The mother of one of my PCs is a Red Mantis Assassin. She will be contracted by Thuldrin Kreed, once the PCs become a pain in his ...!
Either Mother nor daughter (the PC) will know this, although the daughter believes her mother to be an assassin...
Anyway, once the fight is on, I plan to let Mother drop the fight, once she realizes whom she got contracted to kill and start thinking about her life. Whatever happens, out of this rose the question:

What, if a Red Mantis Assassin realizes, that she has to change her life and stop following her assassin career? Does she retain her Red Mantis PrCl abilities?!

I just got my pdf and it's awesome, really!

As I just started a Darkmoonvale campaign, I checked that area first.
I realized, that Olfden got shifted a bit.
On the Darkmoonvale-Map, it is near the eastern border of the Arthfell Forest, which makes sense.

Now it lies far more to the east, and very far away from Arthfell.

As my campaign started during the Night of the Silver Blood, and I situated Olfden where it is shown on the Darkmoonvale map, I would love to have an official answer, which map is more accurate now.

And thanx for that awesome product!

When you're flat-footed during a suprise round and the enemy uses its standard action to cast a fireball... Are you allowed a Ref-save?
Can't find something in the core book. Maybe I am too tired...

So, i will start dming this soon.
As Most Players are unfamiliar with pathfinder, I decided to let them start in Olfden during the night of the Silverblood. They will get attacked by wolves who run rampant in the city and enter the tavern where they meet with a contact (background story).

Any ideas what else to add during this encounter?

I can't find him in any Golarion product. Is he Wizards property?
If so, with whom could I replace him?

It's listed as a poison in the Corebook.
While in the Belladonna-entry you can find the rule, that it allows a save vs. Lycanthropy, there's no clarification in the Wolfsbane-entry.
I always thought of it as being able to keep wolfs at bay (at least to a certain extend).
Can anybody help me here?!

I am presently preparing to run SS (we will start in january 2011).
While talking to my players about their ideas for their pcs, one came up with a backgroundstory, which is pretty close to

Do you guys think this might cause problems? I am presently thinking, that it might be perfect to get the pcs into the "faction war" about Saventh-Yhi and there might be some pretty fine dilemmas/choices to be solved for that particular pc.
Thoughts?

Slayer (Ex): At 17th level, an inquisitor learns to act
quickly in combat. Whenever an inquisitor uses her
judgment ability, she can select one of her judgments—
that judgment grants the maximum bonus from the first
round of combat onward. If that judgment is changed
during combat, it resets as normal.

Can someone please explain to me, what the 'marked' part means?
Do the judgements increase durin combat? I couldn't find such description in the text.

I plan to start Serpentskull in january.
My players LOVE handouts and little Golarion stories.
I now wonder, if it would be a good idea, to make a small journal with all of Eando Klines Journal Entries from Pathfinder #2 to #18, which my players pc can find somehwere in Saventh-Yi.
Do I spoil anything?! I haven't had the time to read the AP-Journals, and will have no time to fully read all 17 journal entries of those APs until january.
So my question here - has anyone thought of this yet, would it work, do I spoil something in doing so?!
I think its a great way for pcs to "learn" stuff about Golarion.

I presently try to convert Karzoug to PF-rules.
I use Hero Lab, which is an immense help with this.
However, as Big K has levels in archmage I am a bit at a loss!
Any idea where I can find the archmage class?!
Or am I just too dump to find it in the corebook?!

I know which witch!
It's one of the three swiss witches!
But which swiss witch is watching her swiss swatch watch, or if those are switched swiss witches watching their swiss swatch watches - I can't say!

Is it gone?!
It was so easy to find the threads I have posted in. Now that the dot is gone to dot-heaven, I really miss it... :`(

Can someone clarify for me, if I can cast this spell on someone else? It has a Range entry, but the description is only talking about the caster?!
I loved that spell of Morigan in that little trailer of Dragon Age, where she put a hand on an enemy, pushed him away, and while stumbling into other opponents, the enemy exploded.
This spell could do that effect, but I am not sure about the official rule here...

I found this in SINS OF THE SAVIORS:"The Scribbler took this as a sign that Lamashtu’s designs on the region are of great importance, and rightly so, 
but for now the Mother of Monsters has chosen to keep her plans 
for the Lost Coast a secret."

I Wonder, if we can expect another AP or Module, dealing with Lamashtus Plans on the Region?

Just finished incorporating the errata to my Bestiary and have found some issues (page references are to the Errata Document):

p.5: Under PAGE 231 - the Rakshasa damage is written as (1d4+4/15-50). Only a minor error, I think it should read "15-20".

p.6: Under PAGE 271 - I am sure, the bullet-point entry should read "It does not gain the VAMPIRE'S Create Spawn ability." Sorry, this is actually correct, as it's a change to the Wight stats! Thanx, hogarth.

p.6: Under PAGE 272 - We should change the Skills line, but it's actually the same as in the book.

p.6: Second PAGE 309 - should actually be PAGE 310, as the error is on that page, although the Undead section starts on p.309.

The Special Ability WEB of the Spider reads as following (AP#4, p.79):

Web (Ex) The deathweb can create sticky webs to ensnare enemies. (...) This is similar to an attack with a net (...) As a standard action, an entangled creature can escape with a successful DC 16 Escape Artist check or burst it with a DC 24 Strength check.(...).

Is this just happening, and the pcs are considered ensnared or entangled, or is this a ranged (probably touch) attack, and the attack bonus is just missing?!

Last session we had a discussion about what to play after we finished RotRL. I told my players about Kingmaker and they totally jumped on it. While talking about that AP, we had the idea how cool a magnetic FlipMat would be, showing the Hexes of the whole AP, with small magnetic icons, to put into the explored hexes (like the ones on p.15 of Stolen Lands for example). Of course, they should be small enough to put at least two of them into a single hex - and a party-icon should be there as well, to show where the pcs are.
But, magnetic FlipMats can't be folded and so shipping would not be an option. But then we came upon those tact-tiles... And I also know a website where you can make your own tact-tiles.
But how cool would such a product be if Paizo would make it?! You could put it on the wall in between sessions, have it on the gametable during sessions, and the players could put those icons on the magnetic tact-tiles.

Oh well, I am just dreaming...

* goes searching his ring of three wishes *

Either the spells description is not totally clear, or I just don't get it.
There is only a 1% chance per caster level of actually affecting an artifact. Once it is affected, it is destroyed without any save (not even with the -5 malus on the Will save, like normal magical items, when they get targeted as a single item).
Do I have to target an artifact as a single item, or are all artifacts affected, which happen to be in the area of effect.

*Note: Don't worry, I don't have (or ever will have) a situation where this problem might arise... but I would like to know!

So, what happens, if this is cast on a flying creature, and the command FALL is given? I am not sure, if this was meant for creatures on ground only, as you just fall prone, without any damage. But what, if this is cast at a flying creature???

The more I read about Stolen Lands and the Player's Guide, the more I get the feeling that this old module from Mr. Bulmahn would fit nicely and into this AP, as a great addition. I just have to wait for the next two installemtents, to know where to put it exactly.

Different locations, wilderness, Fort Thorn, even those fey (and those rosebushes) would fit. And not to forgett Lord Vardak, who wants to forge his own kingdom...

Sweeeeet! Exactly what I wanted. November??? So looong....

One of my players didn't believe me, when I told him, that there's a -2 on every range increment after the first. He said its still -2/-5 and so on. I wanted to show him, but I couldn't find it in the PF-Core Rulebook.
I know I've read it in there somehwere, but even the Index doesn't show an entry... I searched like mad, but could'nt find it.
Anyone here who can give me a page reference, or am I just wrong in remembering having it read?!

Thanx,
Tom

... I decided to do another playtest during my actual RotRL-campaign.
I just made Madame Mvashti (from Sandpoint) a 9th level witch, who will help the pcs during the Raid on Sandpoint in AP#4. I plan to make her a prominent help during that event (as I have only three players anyway!).
I will see how this works and how those players will react to her abilities.

I also made the Sanpoint paladin, Sir Jasper Korvaski, a 4th level Cavalier, who might also come in as help during the raid.

I'll post here how it went, as soon as we played it!

The more and more I read and think about the Summoner and the Witch (I get to playtest them in a week earliest, sadly), I get the impression that they both are really great to tell stories in a campaign. I see great potential in keeping them for NPCs only - having npcs with abilities my players can't guess, is awesome.
Especially the witch is great as an npc. Of course, I will not say no, if one of my players wants to play one of those classes, but more than the Cavalier and the Orcale, the Summoner and the Witch are great "story" classes (sorry, I couldn't find another word).
I can't wait what stories Paizo is going to tell with these classes available...
Thoughts?

Hi there! First of all - I don't want to have a replacement copy! Why I write this? Well, I got one for the Campaign Setting and the Corebook as well, and I don't want Paizo to think of me like I do it on purpose...

I was so afraid of experiencing binding or paging problems again with a Paizo Hardcover and, well, my Bestiary finally arrived (wonderfull book!).
But I have binding issues again. Its not yet broken, but the spine (at the top) will tear apart from the cover soon. At the bottom of the spine the binding is fine. I used transparent, sticky book-cover film (don't know how to describe it any better in english - sorry) to give the whole backcover more toughness :) And I think this will do the trick. It has to, because the Bestiary will be a highly used book.

I tell you this, because I wonder if you take any actions towards the company which is putting your hard-cover books together? Or if this whole problem is a known issue for you guys?!

Greetz,
Tom

Hi Cosmo!

Could it be possible, to take "THE SEEKERS" out of order #1258664, in order to get my donwloads and shipment earlier? It's been so long without my monthly Paizo-fix, and I desperately need the Bestiary.
So, if putting "The Seekers" into the shipment of next month would be psossible, that would be awesome!

Hey Paizo people!

As I just received my replacment copy of the Core rulebook, I have one copy I could give away for free, but don't know if I am allowed to.
If so (hoping for a offical statement here), I have a corebook with some double pages, and some missing pages (mostly about water rules, and environment). If I am allowed and someone is interested...

I life in Germany, so sending it to the Us wouldn't make sense because of shipping costs... but Europe...

I don't know if this has been adressed, but while I was searching the rules for Water, I checked the Index and it told me to check p. 432.
While searching this page I realized I have pages double printed in the book.

Everything seems fine until page 424. Next pagse are reprints of pages 417-424. Thereafter I have pages 441-448, followed by 441-448 again... missing pages 425-440 completely!

I can't find my water rules, and my book seems to be printed totally wrong...

Any ideas?!

p. 113, left column below Sorcerers and Bards:

If I cast Feather Fall and want to Extend it, what would be the casting time? Feather Fall has 1 immediate action, which I would have to double?! That would be - 1 standard action???

p.113, right column below Multiple Metamagic Feats on a Spell:
If I apply multiple metamagic feats to a spell, does this all take even longer. Do I have to double the casting time up for every feat I apply?

p.118 ARCANE STRIKE
Does this feat also apply to weapons which are already magic. Could I pimp Kharzoug this way???

p.136 VITAL STRIKE
If a fighter has this feat, does it apply to every single attack he does? I am tended to house rule it should only be applicable when performing a full-attack, but I am not sure...

Thanx for thoughts, insights and outright solutions (which I might have overseen in the book).

... the "View your recent posts" page.
Would it be possible to have that link not on the "My account" page, but rather on top of tall pages, next to the links like "Sign out", "My subscriptions", etc...
This way we don't need to got to the "My Account" page first to click the link there...
I know, lowest priority, but I just wanted to ask :)

So sad! Hopefully I can be there one day, to experience first hand the madness that is GenCon, and to meet tons of Paizonians, Paizo-Staff and more...
crying,
Tom

Well, second try, cause Webmonster ate my first post...

My shipment is still pending. Never had such a long pending-time.
Is it probably a bug (as it once has been), or just normal, because of workload?!
Thanx for checking!

Tom

Hi there!
I never had a shipment which was pending more than 24 hours (at least, I have the feeling I never had). The actual shipment is pending pretty long now. Is this a bug, or normal?
Thanx for checking...

Tom

... a Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Subscriber and a Paizo Charter Superscriber?
Not that it is important, but I just want to know it ;)

My players are about to experience the Raid on Sandpoint.
Anyone here who already DMed thru this? Any hints or ideas?
I am a bit afraid this will be a fair encounter...

I am wondering, why my shipment for july is still waiting to be shipped... If I am correct, all the four books are available for a time now... I just want to make sure, that I don't get three shipments at once in august.
Could you please check that.
Thank you in advance,
Greetings,
Tom

I am tempted to try it out, especially with the Paizo offer.
But I would like to hear from someone, who already subscribed to DungeonADay, how it is, if the handouts are cool, the maps, and all the stuff?!

I am planning on DMing CotCT soon. The only thing I don't like about the first adventure is the "rail-roading" in the first part.
I plan on having all pcs being members of the city guard and wonder if anyone did this as well.
I am sure, this will bring them easier into the story and will also help to kind of overcome the feel of railroading. Getting orders from someone might just do the trick her. Thoughts?
