I would include Day of the Demon under the Blakros arc instead of the Cheliax arc, after going through them. ;)

Shillelagh doesn't work on greatclubs.

Huh. This would be the first time I've seen someone say this. Where are you getting this from?

I've got a Fighter4/Rogue3/Duelist5 and I'm enjoying him immensely. :D

Something to look at, not sure of what feats she has.

Cad or Free-hand fighter would be nice, maybe Scout for the Sneak Attack on charge?

Oddball question. Could you take the Minor Magic rogue talent and get Mage Hand, then go Half-Elf Rogue/Witch (Bonded Witch from ARG)?

Heh. I saw that also, but I wasn't sure how any of the answers there would apply to PFS, so I figured I'd start something in here.

Well, got my response. :D

Dear James Jacobs,

Are there any gods that can let their clerics use the Whimsy subdomain from Blood of Angels, or is it only for non-deity divine casters?

Thanks! :D

Some of the Empyreal Lords probably grant that subdomain, as do some of the Eldest. As for core deities... not sure. Calistria, Cayden Caylean, Desna, and Shelyn all seem like they might.

But that doesn't mean that's legal for PFS. Any ideas on PFS legality? Mike?

Dear James Jacobs,

Yeah, it seems like a perfect match for a Varisian Aasimar cleric of Desna. :D

This feels like a silly question, but can PFS clerics take the Whimsy subdomain if their god has Chaos as a normal domain? I don't remember seeing any other new subdomains since the APG (I could be wrong), but the ones in the Aasimar book are the first ones I've seen that don't have a god associated with them.

I looked through a lot of posts and did searching on here and couldn't find an official answer, unfortunately. Lots of speculation and guessing, but no final ruling. :(

Hector Narcisso, Proprietor of Cayden's Cup, Level 12.
(Fighter/Rogue/Duelist)

Seeing so few folks post in the thread, will it really have that big of a turnout?

This is only my 2nd PaizoCon, and we missed the MnE last year , that's why I was curious.

We've got 2 or 3 more in our room that could do a game today also. We have characters that span pretty much the whole spectrum. :D

Something low level would be better though, I folks have room later.

The creperie in the mall is awesome. :D

So's Uncle's Games and Comic Stop!

Hotel has wifi, but it's $14.95 per 24hrs. :(

Here finally also. Ugh, 14.95 for 24hrs of wifi.

Is there not a PDF version of the SD player's guide? I've got a hard copy but I'm trying to get my stuff together for PaizoCon and I have something out of it on a PFS character.

Well dang...I wasn't even aware that there would be a part of the Convocation that would require sign-up. Nerds.

Well, here's hoping I can make it into the finale...

Only 154 of 170 people obtained tickets. So, we should have some room to fit those that didn't get tickets initially. But, those are first come first serve of course.

When were the signups for this open? At the same time as the other limited seating events? Is it possible to get myself and my Buddy on the list for tickets for this still? :D

Argh. I must have missed the timing on this, was there another time frame for the PFS event signup @ PaizoCon?

If it's possible, can I get myself and my Buddy added to the Friday night Grand Convocation?

I looked at Gillman also, but the penalties for going too long without immersion in water had me worried if we had to go inland for a few days. :(

Any fixes or ideas on that?

Even inland would be relatively close to the water in pretty much ever case. Going to port still means you have to be relatively close to the docks I would assume. I think you are either on an island or near the coast for the most part, so if I was your GM I would not give you any trouble over it. It is not like you will end up in the middle of Varisia at some point or anything. I would assume you are always close enough to the ocean that it should never become an issue.

Yeah, I'm more worried if there's an extended period we'll be away from the ship, a dungeon crawl that goes multi-day or something like that.

I looked at Gillman also, but the penalties for going too long without immersion in water had me worried if we had to go inland for a few days. :(

Any fixes or ideas on that?

We're getting ready to start our S&S campaign after Carrion Crown ends, and we took a break from one of our weeks when everyone couldn't make it and ended up with the following party:

Goblin Alchemist (maybe the fire bomber)
Tiefling Magus
Half-Elf Barbarian (Sea Reaver)
Undine Cleric of Gozreh
Grippli Ranger (Freebooter)

I'm playing the Grippli Ranger and I'm trying to figure out what combat style I want to use. I had thought about using the Archery style, but using thrown weapons instead (working on that with my GM). We are a bit short on front-line combat folks, so I'd thought about going two-weapon fighting and going Net/something, since Grippli get Net as a racial proficiency.

Any other suggestions/ideas?

Please cancel my Pathfinder Tales subscription.

I've enjoyed the books but life's getting busy and can't keep up with the novels. :)

Yay us. :D

Anyone else having trouble printing the guide? I'm getting an error about no pages being selected. :(

They had us on the room block, because they had us at the $85/night rate for the rest of the nights. It was weird, not sure why they'd skip that night. We'll check back later this week though, thanks Jeff!

I just made our reservation for the hotel and they said that the night of the 8th was going to be at the full rate, not the Con rate. Anyone else run into this?

Are they doing the lottery again this year?

Wha? Is it out? I can't find it on the AP page. :(

Any idea on what we need to do to get the con rate for the rooms? I went to the hotel's website and it's showing more expensive rates.

Anyone have more options like these? I'm trying to automate some things in a spreadsheet, but I'm not too good at excel. :(

My goal is to have a list of what modules have been played by who, and with a separate sheet pulling info from another to tell us who can play what at a quick glance.

Any ideas?

Hey Arnim,

Have you contacted Jason Roeder, the new venture captain in Missouri? He may have some ideas or solutions to get your attendance up. I know he's got an exclusive scenario that no one has played yet that he might be able to offer a time or two, though I know Columbia is a fair drive from CG.

It's a fun scenario. :D

This can't come out soon enough. :D

Yeah it's Friday! Sigh - no paizocon announcement :(

.

Wait Friday isn't over yet. maybe there is still a chance. Hope renews

Edit: On the other hand, maybe they rolled a 1 at the meeting and now we have to wait until next week.

I'd imagine most of the Paizo guys and gals may not even be awake yet, it's still early over there on the west coast. :P

What's the latest version of the sheet, and is there a Google Docs version? :D

Yes, you I know, using your rogue's name in here.

I have no idea who Kikai13 is, do you?

It's not Larry is it?

Kikai13 is Jason from Columbia. I'm also in Columbia.

work slacked up any, Krome? haven't had a chance to read through your adventure yet. :p

Sounds Awesome! I used to live in Columbia. Now I'm in Rolla MO. My love for RPGs has been rekindled when I played my 1st PFS game back in August.I'm going to try and make the trip up in November. Hope to see you there!

Also, on Oct 22-24 Cog-Con 19 will be at the Havener Center in Rolla MO. There will be running the following scenarios:
#2-06: The Heresy of Man—Part I: The First Heresy (PFRPG)
#55: The Infernal Vault (PFRPG)
#56: The Jester's Fraud (PFRPG)

+ tables for PFS open library for every slot. Here is the link! http://www.cogcongaming.com/ I hope your group in COMO will come down to Rolla and join the fun!

Mortran, I couldn't find in which slots the PFS stuff is running. Am I just blind, or is that not listed?

Woo.

Hope to see more new faces at the PFS Smackdown events at the Gate! :D

Quick question:

What would the speed be of a 3rd level fighter in Mithral Full Plate?

Yeah, I could see that being another option also. I was looking at the list of the spells and what I think I'll do is limit it to things that are [(coven leader's CL)+1 per witch in the coven] caster level.

Lv1 (1)+3 = 4
Lv2 (2)+3 = 5
etc.

It'll leave them something to look forward to and still let them have access some of the spells early.

I do hope that one of the devs at least looks at this though. :P

OK, so even though they count as a hag, there has to be an ACTUAL Hag to start the Coven to get the extra spells from the Bestiary?

Yes, as I understand it, a coven is not a "witch thing" its a hag thing. So basically a witch can be a faux hag for purposes of adding to a hag coven, but a group of witches still need at least one hag to make their own coven. Of course, there is nothing to stop a GM from allowing an all-witch coven in their game, either. I sort of assumed that this was in there to add flavor to your game, perhaps the GM might be tempting a witch with more power if they joined a hag coven, that was more evil than said witch? Or to help flesh out the storyline for NPC witches?

Maybe one of the developers will stop by and add their thoughts...

Yeah, I'm running Kingmaker and 3 of our 6 players are Witches. :D

OK, so even though they count as a hag, there has to be an ACTUAL Hag to start the Coven to get the extra spells from the Bestiary?

So, I'm starting to run a campaign and I wanted to clarify something.

If I have 3 PCs that are Witches, then the way that we're reading the Coven hex one of them can count as a hag for the purposes of forming a Coven, and the other 2 can join the Coven? Is that right?

I don't mind them having the higher level spells as there's a price to pay to get to use them, and most aren't "combat" spells.

I've read the threads concerning bombs and the Vital Strike feats, but what is the rule about bombs and critical hits? Can they make a critical hit or not?

DogBone

They can, but from how it reads (IIRC), only the first d6 gets multiplied, not all of them.

Wow. Those are amazing. :D

And now for the question I'm sure you're dreading. :P Are you working on a set for the APG also, or any of the Companion books?

The 2010 4-pin set is up now.

Yay! Ordered!

Haven't read Witch, but, if, as you say, CLW is on her spell list, then,

Boathar Kaay wrote:

1) Can she use a CLW wand even if it was crafted by a cleric just because it is on her spell list(like the artificer in 3.5)?

Absolutely. It doesn't actually matter who made it. Wands are spell completion items. It only matters that the spell is *on your list*. You don't even actually have to be able to cast it. A first level ranger can use a wand of Cure Light Wounds.

Quote:

2) If not, does she need to invest in item creation feats for this kind of items or look for someone who sells arcane versions of these wands?

I don't believe there are arcane CLW wands, but this question is moot.

** spoiler omitted **

OK, so, based on the spoiler, let me see if I'm doing this right. Level 1 Inquisitor doesn't put CLW on her Known Spells, she can still use a wand of CLW since it's on the class spell LIST, right?

The spells known by a character have NO INFLUENCE on the ability to use a wand, right? But it does matter for Scrolls, since they're Div or Arc?

Ooh, yay! :D I didn't know there'd be a set this year, didn't have my con ninjas keep an eye out for em since I couldn't attend.

Any ETA? :)

Thanks!

Argh. Just checked, and now I'm showing Orcs x2 in my sidecart, and no PDF. :P

I just can't win for losing, it seems.
