that is my advice do not do an adventure path at first or at the least, preface your AP choice with a scenario or module that can help you get rolling without having to dive into something so large read that scenario front and back, get a feel for it, plan it out
then, use that experience to decide what you can handle next and what you need to work on
What is there to address If they can work well as a group and are good players then things will be just fine of course, I have no idea who the rogue thinks they are going to be flanking off of when in combat, hopefully they are maximizing alternative ways of generating sneak attacks but, if you are feeling that it is necessary to break their notion that melee-oriented characters have to be big, armored and dumb, show them archetypes like the Lore Warden or Tactician Fighter, the Urban Barbarian, Order of the Tome Cavalier, etc.
hey paizo people I hope you enjoy the movie, that is pretty rad also I made Ross Byers a hair doll that sort of looks like Chris Pine, if Chris Pine were made out of hair it was going to be for James Jacobs but he started bringing up a Swashbuckler class so we are no longer on speaking terms also do not worry, I will try to refrain from posting anything terrible until after 3:30
My wife and I host our home games. We provide awesome food and drinks. We like to host. Our game group contribute to the festivities, but we do not require them to do so. I GM, my wife plays. In our other home game, we both play and a good friend of ours is the GM. We like it. We wouldn't have it any other way.

Bonded Witch (Half-Elf)
etc. etc. etc. virtually every class has a way around this issue
personally I am not a fan of such a rule but hey to each their own
- a crit fisher twf-kukri user with butterfly sting along with a x4 two-handed weapon martial, both with outflank as a teamwork feat - two martials with reach weapons, utilizing paired opportunists and pack attack - a viking fighter and barbarian both with amplified rage - paired rogues with feint partner, improved feint partner and paired opportunists - mixing broken wing gambit and paired opportunists but apart from teamwork feats, think about class and archetype synergies: A Void Wizard and a Witch A Quadruped Synthesist Summoner with the ride evolution and a Mounted Fury Barbarian A Savage Skald Bard and a Barbarian An Archer Fighter and Urban Barbarian Archer A Metal Oracle and a Wood Oracle A Summoner with a buffing bard
.
Names for each one:
the twin sisters - Artamus & Sumatra (Read them back and forth) - Death & Taxes monk
catfolk bard
witch
wizard
ranger
samurai
magus
cleric
I've seen "Siege Archer" builds that get around the lack of clarity by keeping a mount, animal companion or pack animal near them that is carrying a quiver of Large-sized arrows. They get Gravity Bow and Enlarge Person going, then launch Large-sized arrows that they pull from the quiver located on their animal adjacent to them.

Lemmy that is the dang point I have been trying to impress upon threads like this for quite awhile all I am imploring you guys to do when talking in-depth about the classes is to at the very least quantify your statements in a rough level range many of the problems that you guys bring to the forefront are simply going to be either marginal or non-existant below level 6 or so there is a strong grouping of the player base that will certainly play more often at or below those levels, than they will above them
that is it, writer
we will duel at dawn actually we will not because once we roll them up they will be laughed at and theorycrafted into the ground in this thread until we both run away sobbing I mean like a drink-a-beer-in-the-shower-while-crying kind of sobbing and thank you jessica price for removing the post that when taken out of context from all the others made me look like a total creeper now people can forever wonder what was said as this gleaming gem of a thread stands the test of time

ashiel are you in like a wormhole or is this just the day where you reference things from long ago like old posts or zubaz pants and no the point is that with a fighter, you can conjure up feat-intensive builds and feat progressions faster than any other class when you are building at level 10, 15 or 20 with eleventy hojillion gold and 16.239% of a wand this might not matter, but it does to a lot of players who have their first 9 PFS sessions under their belt and get to try a feat progression set they've never seen before in a build they might not otherwise be able to execute in any reasonable length of time yes maybe you get to a certain point and you realize hey, I can do this thing I am doing better with x then with the y I currently have this is good thing and signals growth as a player but that is meaningless if the player is scared out of learning for themselves by the innundation of repetitive generalizations that have mostly been garnered from going way down the theorycrafting rabbit hole, either min/max-wise or character-level-wise
