I have spent the last 10 minutes attempting to fix my payment method but thanks to the craptastic UI, I have only succeeded in adding a new payment method but cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the payment method for a previously declined order.

Additionally, if you are going to be picky about payment methods (AKA no AMEX) then there should be a list of approved methods.

Very frustrated.

Hi, I noticed my order was just upon the precipice of getting the shipping credit and so I added a map pack that will help with my current campaign.

As of right now the order is not showing the shipping discount/credit/thing. Will this be applied automatically once the order is finalized or is there some sort of hiccup?

Thanks!

Dan

Can you confirm that this order is shipping by the cheapest method? I added an additional item and the total jumped almost $20 when the item was only about $13.

Also I'm not seeing the first ten credit on the order. It's mentioned at the top but it doesn't seem to be in the actual math. I have trouble believing that $29 is the cheapest possible shipping cost.

Hi,

Just as the title says, I'd like to cancel my Pathfinder Modules subscription. I would like to continue to receive all of my other subscriptions so don't cancel anything else

Thanks!

So I don't understand anything about the math involved in this order.

The normal product prices seem to add up fine and I seem to be getting the correct product, other than that I am greatly confused.

- Why is my order once again being split into two shipments with the increased shipping cost that entails?
- How does $89.71+$12.93 = 118.76?
- Why am I getting the $10 off shipping credit when I'm not getting that much stuff?
- Why is my preauthorization $39.77?

After last month's debacle, I am very suspicious of the seeming irregularities of this order.

Box #1 of this order arrived in fine condition. No problems.

Box #2 Had 2 Major Issues

- I did not receive the Monster Codex. Instead I received the Wrath of the Righteous Adventure Deck - the Midnight Isles.
- Also it cost nearly $18 to ship a 5lb item? That is frankly inexcusable. It should have been combined into a single shipment and there is no way it costs that much. And if it is going to be Paizo's company line that it does cost that much to ship then I will be ending my Pawns subscription immediately, because the shipping costs remove any and all incentive. Buying from a local store at full price and purchasing the PDF would cost less.

Very annoyed at this turn of events.

This is the second time in 3 (maybe 4) months that I have tried to add something to a pending order and not had that be an option on the shipping screen. I am able to "sidecart" it or ship it individually, but there is no third option.

I really think there is something wrong with my account because when I go to check out it immediately goes to "Step 4" and it shows the Sihedron Medallion that I bought months ago.

Any assistance you can provide would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The order lists the Pathfinder Advantage but the only item discounted is the AP volume itself. None of the other items are discounted.

Want to add the new Pathfinder Battles Iconics set to my current pending subscription order (3421423).

When I go to checkout, it almost always goes directly to the "confirm order" page. I try to go to the shipping page to specify that I want it added to a pending order, the page is essentially blank. The payment page says that it will be added to Order 3362849, which I already received a little over a month ago.

Apparently, my account is locked into adding things to a previous order. Please advise how we can fix this. I thought it might be a cookies issue so I tried using a different browser, same behavior throughout.

I'm trying to order the Sihedron Medal for my Shattered Star DM as a Christmas present.

When I get to checkout, it won't let me add it to the current pending subscription order. I just got notified about the order authorization yesterday. That seems like a very short pending period.

I have a subscription order that is on the edge of getting a shipping credit. I'm trying to add a pathfinder battles booster to the order, I just can't find where to do that.

Any assistance you all can provide would be appreciated.

Please cancel the following subscriptions for me:
- Pathfinder Tales (I love them but I'm transitioning all of my reading to eBook and don't have room for the dead tree versions anymore)
- Pathfinder Comics (I'm just going to get the collected editions when they are released)
- Gamemastery Maps (Don't run F2F games much anymore so the .pdfs will suffice)

Thanks!

When I received the pending notice about 2306103 and immediately saw that it was within $10 of $100, I immediately order some Pawn bases and added them to my sidecart. I expected that the new order 2306133 would be shipped with the monthly order and that I would essentially get the bases for free once the $10 shipping credit was applied.

This doesn't seem to be the case. Should I have done something differently or is it possible to still merge these orders?

As I said I am just disappointed and confused at the moment.

Thanks for any info or assistance you can provide.

So I am working on my session prep for the last portion of Fortress of the Stone Giants and as part of that I am inputing all of the NPCs into Hero Lab.

While doing this I discovered that Mokmurian seems vastly over-spent on skills.

To equal the ranks as they are listed in the Anniversary Edition i have spent 164 points. Unfortunately, based on my figuring he should only have a maximum of 126 (assuming that all 11 levels of his favored class bonus are allocated to skills)

Should I assume that this means that the Robe of Runes grants additional skills just as a headband of vast intellect? The text doesn't specify this but I could see it being logical.

Just wondering what the hold up is on my order?

Other Superscribers have gotten their shipment notices (and hence pdfs) days ago and I am still looking at a pending status.

An info would be appreciated.

I have my first PFS sessions in 2 days where I will be running First Steps 1 & 2.

When I first scheduled the sessions, I was under the misapprehension that the scenarios were designed for 6 players. Since then I discovered that this is not the case. It was too late to limit the first session though since it was already full.

So here is my question: Is it OK to alter the opposition in a PFS scenario (more mooks, add class levels/ HD) or should we run them as is and risk it being a cake walk?

Howdy folks,

I am going to be running the first PFS Scenarios at my local store in a couple weeks and I am trying to do it up right.

I know that there are occasionally map packs or flip mats used for the PFS scenarios and they aren't always called out in the text. Hence my question:

Are there any other Flip Mats or Map Packs lurking in In Service to Lore or to Delve the Dungeon Deep?

Other than Ambush Sites that is! :)

Thanks,

Dan

A bunch of the spellbooks in UM reference the "metabolize" spell. I can't find it anywhere. Anyone know where I can find it or is this reference an error?

Howdy all,

I am currently working with my FLGS to start up local PFS play. At the latest this will be held on Free RPG day but it may be sooner.

I will have 2 slots available (11a-3p and 4p-8p). Ideally, I would like to run the entire First Steps series but that isn't really possible given those constraints.

What I was wondering was this:

Based on your personal experiences with starting local groups should I...

a)... just run First Steps 1 & 2 since they are simple and easily approachable for new players.
b)... run First Steps 1 two times to allow more people to experience PFS play.
c)... run another PFS module two times (I'm thinking Frostfur Captives because exploding goblins = fun)
d)... run two different standard PFS modules (Frostfur and something else)
e)... do something different that cannot be defined by the above choices.

(Note: I have read Mark Garringer's post about playing certain PFS adventures in a specific order for maximum fun and immersion and I will be taking that info to heart before making my final decision)

Howdy all,

I'm going to be running what is hopefully the last portion of HMM over the next two sessions with my group and I have come across the following situation:

It seems way more logical for the "after Rannick" portion of the module to progress as follows.

Rain starts.

2-4 days after the PCs retake the fort Yap arrives at Rannick. Tells PCs about Myriana and asks for help.

More rain.

PCs pass through Turtleback Ferry and inform them of the situation at Rannick

More rain.

PCs meet Myriana in the Shimmerglens.

More rain.

PCs arrive in Turtleback Ferry as the flood starts. Hilarity ensues.

PCs head for Skulls Crossing, kill things.

PCs make their way up Hook Mountain, more things die.

This seems not only to flow more logically (in my mind) from the provided clues but also from the standpoint of the locations on the map.

Any thoughts as to why this might not be optimal or problems I may encounter?

Pretty much just as the subject says:

I am wondering if you can gain the benefit of the Far-Reaching Sight (Full round action to get attacks vs. Touch AC at any range increment(Ultimate Combat, p. 143)) while performing the Dead Shot Deed (Ultimate Combat, p. 11).

They both require full round actions but I don't see why they couldn't stack.

According to another thread, we were going to be able to get our subscriptions at Gencon and there would be some mechanism for initiating this on our account subscription page.

Am I blind or has this not been implemented yet?

Howdy all,

For various reasons, I have never been involved in any organized RPG play and am now really eager to get started in the Pathfinder Society.

I understand that I have to start with a 1st level character but there seem to be two types of events I can play in run by Paizo. The first is either a 1-5 scenario and the other is a 1st level only called something like "First Steps".

Is the first step event an official PFS event or just a an introductory demo type thing?

Any help you can provide would be appreciated...

Just looked through the whole adventure trying to find out what the initial troop complement of Fort Rannick was.

No Joy.

I'm thinking in the 35 to 50 range with 8-12 comprising the long range patrol that the survivors were in.

Any thoughts, suggestions?

I tried searching for my answer first, but either my search-fu is hella weak or this hasn't be covered before...

I was hoping that the new Carrion Crown Adventure Path would have some Pre-Made Characters featuring the new Iconics from the Advanced Player's Guide. But sadly, it seems Paizo has decided to abandon including PCs in the APs.

Have the new Iconics been statted up anywhere online or in print?

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

In every Pathfinder pdf I have the "A"s in the section titles are missing. Any clue why that would be?

In other news, I am very excited about the C V LIER and the OR CLE.

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere. My search fu might be on the weak side.

I was hoping that there might be some way to finagle picking up my long awaited copy of the PFRPG Core Rulebook at Gencon and simultaneously get a free pdf.

I will be subscribing to the line but there is no fun in standing around at Gencon looking at everyone else reading their copy and thinking "won't it be awesome when I go home and get my copy"

Just like the d4 HP has seen the end of it's life, the PFRPG should do away with the 2+INT progressions.

They are needlessly punishing, to clerics especially.

Please steal, er, borrow Monte Cook's version of staggered.

0 to negative Con Mod - Staggered
-Con Mod to negative Con Score - dying.

It just makes more sense and actually allows the staggered condition to happen from time to time.

So we played our first session of the Rise of the Runelords AP with the Beta Rules. All over it went well.

My only glaring complaint is the lack of skill points (and I'm the DM).

But that isn't my main question...

I full like the new XP system awarding flat points for each CR. It's faster than the old system but I'm not sure I am doing it right.

Basically, I don't know how to rate encounters with fractional CRs or mixed CRs.

A good example of one such occasion is:

4 goblin warriors (CR 1/3)
1 goblin ranger (CR 1 )
1 goblin dog (CR 1)

Could someone explain how I would use the charts in the Beta rules to score this?

I thank you in advance for any assistance you all can provide.

Dan

One of my players for our upcoming PFRPG Rise of the Runelords campaign has expressed interest in the Combat Focus feat tree from Players Handbook 2. Has anyone had any experience with these feats? To my untrained eyes they seem fairly innocuous but I have been known to misunderestimate game-breaking powers in the past.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

My group is about to start Rise of the Runelords. One of my players is going to be taking the green path.

In the Campaign Setting there is talk of the druids of Tanglebriar. In the description of Second Darkness, there is a brief mention of Tanglebriar as a demon infested forest.

Is there any more information out there? Anything would be appreciated. Even a general location in Golarion would be helpful.

Basically, the title says it all.

Given that improving Constitution can result in retroactive HPs, why is it any different for skill points?

I dislike the inconsistency here.

What happened to not covering up the artwork with blurbs?

I was totally down with that idea.

Confused and disappointed,

Dan
