Time for 4 awakened pizza loving turtles, raised by a Minkaian Ratfolk, fighting an awakened warthog & rhinoceros.
Do you just add playable Street Fighter arcade machines into Pathfinder?!
Buy a playtest book? No thanks.
Exalted. Three vowels. Three syllables. Probably divine based kineticist chassis.
Paizo seems pretty pleased with where they've placed spellcasters. I wouldn't waste my time trying to convince them otherwise. Just homebrew casting runes for your own games.
Sure, that's why ancestries like Sprites and Strix with wings and cultures centered around being able to fly make TOTAL sense that as soon as they become PCs their wings get clipped until level 13. I know, right? Last week, a friend asked me about running our group's 2e game since our GM right now is swamped with life stuff. I said yes. I had never really thought about running any 2e games myself, but I'll do what I must. I thought about the absolute ridiculousness of a situation where a player decides they want to play a Strix character. The character grows up flying around with their Strix friends and they eventually decide to become an adventurer. As soon as they meet the other members of their party, they completely forgot how to fly or even unfold their wings until level 9. I know there are optional rules for allowing your winged players to fly early(along with a strongly worded warning telling you not to do it). Still, the notion of "no no no, you're not allowed until..." is just so funny to me. Every NPC member of your ancestry can do this thing. This ONE thing. Its what your ancestry is known for. Its what you have giant wings for. This PC meets a whole group of their Strix people, who happily greet them in the Strix language. "Come and fly down to the shore with us friend! We fish at dawn's first light." But for some reason, this one Strix just can't manage to get their wings to unfold. If any of my players want to be Strix or anything else with flight, I'm not even using the optional rules for it. You start with 15 feet and you get faster at 5th, 9th, and eventually 13th level. No feats needed. The feats will just let you do cool things while you fly and/or give you a bonus to Maneuver in Flight checks.
Two things I think need to happen for Remastered Magus. 1. Condensing Arcane Cascade. My suggestion would be to make it flexible to where it is either a single action or a free action. If you cast a single action spell, immediately after casting you can activate Arcane Cascade as a single action. If you cast a spell that takes two or more actions, immediately after casting you can activate it as a free action. This should always be the case for Spellstrikes(regardless of how many actions the spell used has). 2. Attack of Opportunity/Reactive Strike is no longer a class feat. It becomes a class feature. This is something I think should happen for any class that has AoO as a class feat. I tire of this feat tax. After hearing that Organized Play would have Tieflings for no AcP cost, I just made two new characters. In trying to build the characters I envisioned, I was unfortunately reminded that their 6th level class feat couldn't be anything interesting or fun. It had to be Attack of Opportunity. Not the one feat that I really want from my archetype.
It should be easy enough and makes thematic sense to just add it into the weapon proficiency improvement that most martials get at 5th level or the weapon specialization they get at 7th.
Exactly. You know what is really fun? Flying. You know what is NOT fun? Falling.(It can be fun, but not at the end) No one is ever completely safe in the air. Ranged attacks, ranged spell attacks, other flying creatures, wind/weather conditions are all problems for flyers.
What I didn't get to make in PF1, Jubilation Lee the fire kineticist
BG3 lets you have sex with a wild shape druid, insta buy for me, this is this weird s&@& that D&D was always about. The hype for digital bestiality will never cease to amaze and disgust me.
The issue really is that spell attacks are bad and can’t compete with save effects that do half damage on a fail. This all day. Spell Attack Runes in Spell Implement items.
What should hypothetical Starfinder 2e do differently from PF2e? Not exist for several more years so I can keep enjoying SF. /s (Not really though)
For a system touted as "the math is really solid and balanced", nobody seems to be eager to do a straight adaptation of Pathfinder 2e. PF2e's system would make one of the worst video games ever
Hey, head's up! Thurston Hillman on a podcast confirmed that Starfinder Enhanced will have some variant rules in there, including Free Archetype! They noted how popular it was in PF2E, and so decided to include it as a new variant rule for SF. I ran my last Starfinder game with free archetypes. With the swingyness of SF archetypes, it didn't really turn out like I'd hoped it would. The Double Themes did add a lot.
The lack of an adaptation from can switch your adaptive strike from melee to ranged, or vice-versa, is annoying... This is my dilemma with trying to build one of these
These “Starfinder Stay” BNB-like accommodations are the homes of Starfinders who find themselves adventuring more than they stay on the station. Who wouldn’t want to sleep in a home filled with mysterious Starfinder-obtained relics. Nothing could go wrong. Nothing!* Why would Starfinder agents have "relics" from missions in their homes? Wouldn't those be in some form of lock up? A secured place with guards and cameras.
This all day long. Swashbucklers are so reliant on their panache mechanic, maybe just allow them the ability to turn crit fails into regular fails with panache
Hell, I started playing more Starfinder after PF2e release
We like Pathfinder Second Edition. I would assume so since you made it. You like Pathfinder Second Edition. Whoa, slow down there! I accept that Second Edition is whats being played now in PFS and that everyone loves "muh balance!", but I hope & pray for the day we get Pathfinder 2.5e.
I've used Warhorn for years now and I know that I'm not alone in this. If you enjoy the benefits of this website, think about supporting it. https://www.patreon.com/warhorn/membership Seriously, with the number of us that do PFS around the globe, theres no reason to not contribute to the site that allows us to connect with and play with so many other people.
I have to be honest. My preference for another Paizo video game is for Starfinder. But for the love of God, don't make it SF2e(PFS2e in space). SF has only been out since 2017. And by the time they make a SF2e, hopefully they'll have something that doesn't feel so hamstringed at times. Sorry, not sorry. I like PF2e, but I don't love it.
Seems like the simple solution would be for Paizo to create a Rogue class feat or two. Knife Expert: Gain proficiency with one-handed martial melee weapons in the Knife weapon group. This proficiency matches your proficiency in simple weapons and you can benefit from your Weapon Tricks class feature with these weapons. Knife Master: Choose a single one-handed advanced melee weapon in the Knife weapon group. You become proficient with that weapon. This proficiency matches your proficiency in simple weapons and you can benefit from your Weapon Tricks class feature with this weapon.
I get the other classes, but why the Solarian? What is there to fix? Solarian was hella MAD when the game released. It just never seemed(to me) like Charisma did much other than raise your Resolve Points. Not as much of a problem now with revelations that use your Charisma mod and the Soulfire fusion for melee. More options for solar manifestations like lunar weapon & solar flare have helped for high Dexterity Solarians if you don't want to wield a normal operative weapon or spend a feat to take longarm proficiency. Solarian still has 2 dead levels. I'd hope they would also take the chance to clarify many things dealing with the solar weapon(and other manifestations that are basically the same thing). Can you get a solarian weapon crystal made of a special material like adamantine alloy and get the benefit of that material on your manifestation? I'd also like the know once and for all if certain things an be used with solar weapons like Weapon Orbit. I know RAW it doesn't work, but that just feels bad to me.
Would also love to see 3 action economy, which is superior to the PF1 and SF version, without question. Well I definitely question the statement, as thats your opinion. The unchained action economy from Pathfinder Unchained is really simple to use.
Maybe we'll get a version of Solarian without dead levels.
After seeing the sacred nagaji, I'm still waiting on Merfolk
Merfolk
Will we get double weapons back? Like the classic two-bladed sword?
We know you will love what we got you—a fearsome foe or two, maybe even a troop or swarm, in every encounter. Happy Holidays! -=face palm=-
That aside, it also means that healing clerics (not just Pharasmins) cannot use a three-action Heal within 30 feet of any Skeletal characters without running hard up against the no PVP rules or pretty much being required to take Selective Energy as early as possible. That seems like it's placing another restriction on the class; all the Skeleton player has to do is reject being willing to take the damage (though, granted, most would not do that, pretty much expecting to have to be self-sufficient) to prevent the most efficient use of that cleric ability. And yes, it's hardly the only thing that triggers that, but it may be the only one that triggers on a major class ability. On the other hand, it might give the Bad Touch cleric the novel experience of being the healer! Well, thats already an issue with other Negative Healing ancestries/heritages. When I made a Dhampir Rogue, I knew what to expect for healing(and possible damage from other PCs), which is why I made sure to have Oils of Unlife and now Assurance(Medicine).
Add the elemental damage options for the other elements.
Elemental Blast could become a Stance. That would be terrible as stances can only be used in combat and are a constant action tax for each encounter.
Someone explain con to damage to me. If a spellcaster's Mental score ties to the "power" of their magic(Cantrip damage & Spell DC), then why wouldn't a Kineticist's Constitution do something similar. Constitution determines the power of your elemental control, hence it being used for Class DC. With higher Constitution, your Fire burns hotter, your Air has a higher wind speed, your Earth is larger/denser.
As far as I can tell, its just Class DC, but nothing to do with damage like 1e.
Use the hanyu pinyin transliterated version, 赫舒哈 = Hè shū hā
Well by the time this comes out, I won't have anything in the level range. Cool bro.
Thank God, no skittermanders
Is Secrets of Magic the book with the new FF Summon style spells, cuz I wanna make Yuna?
You give PCs mechs, a.k.a. new shiny toys, and you can bet your career that PCs are gonna run 99% of your campaign with them :P While there isn't a rule to forbid players to use mechs, some adjustments will be required to avoid breaking the game. I would imagine that cities, nations, and space stations(and possibly even entire planets) would have restrictions on mech use and operation.
Mark Seifter has made it pretty clear that the 6th Pillar Archetype from this book is going to be getting Errata'd very quickly, specifically in that it will not be allowing casters to gain expert proficiency with unarmed attacks at level 8 and master proficiency with unarmed attacks at level 16. Nerf Hammer incoming.
This is not a game where all problems are solved with “fly around and blow everything up”. Definitely. I think we can all agree that the correct course of action is to use "exploration" mechs. A lot of people who don’t seem capable of managing a mortgage... Cool it with the insults.
I may be mistaken, but I believe "jian" means "sword" in at least one Chinese dialect. Mandarin word for a specific style of sword. Also known as the taijijian. Used by jiànkè in Wuxia fantasy. Popular in the martial art of taijiquan and other Chinese arts. The character on the cover is using a Jian. However it's mechanically just a Shortsword. The weapons section has a section for "Adapting Western Weapons", where it gives advise for making your own western weapons. The easiest method being a re-skin of a similar weapon that already exists, or use a weapon that already exists and swap a trait (I'm over simplifying). But it looks like thats what they did for the character on the cover. It's a "Jian (As shortsword)" Okay cool, is there a way to use a shortsword with the monk Peafowl Stance?
As much as I've come to dislike 2e, that actually sounds cool as ****!
WTF?!
Noice!
I'd hate to be overly pessimistic, but I'm surprised that a revolver option for the gunslinger was unpopular. I understand that we're ostensibly in a fantasy setting, but a gunslinger without a revolver sounds crazy to me. Same. In 1e, we had revolvers as advanced firearms. I figure they might end up with some revolver or revolver-like firearm as an advanced firearm. Capacity 4 to 6 with reload 2 or 3. Maybe at least a pepperbox or double-barreled pistol.
Gun mages of distant Arcadia Wild West Wizards. It's high noon!!!
Targeting an 11 am pst go-live plus a few minutes to buffer. Thanks for your patience and interest. Wait, it all makes sense now. The STARS!!! Pathfinder 2e Solarian confirmed!
Hmm, I think we're all thinking too narrowly. It's eight letters, but we haven't considered numbers and special characters Get ready for my new Wingding.
Like if there's a Swashbuckler and a Quashbuckler, only one of those two things is going to have a Fencer option. Well there should only be one class. The Leshy Squashbuckler. Cabbage, as a vegetable you should know this. A quick search on thesaurus.com for Gunslinger gave some interesting 8-letter results. M-a-r-a-u-d-e-r
Some 8-letter word guessers gave some good ones too. S-l-a-p-j-a-c-k
