Hi all,

My next character is planned to be a Cavalier, and I was, unsuccessfully, looking for a set of figures that has a matching mounted and unmounted character. I know Ral Partha did something along these lines way back when, but does anyone know of a modern company that has this??

I have looked at Reaper, GameZone and Scibor so far...although they have good mounted figures, they do not seem to have the same figure unmounted.

Help!!

PS I am not fussy at this point re race, mount etc

Hi all,

I am looking for a feat that allows a character to use Dex for damage (like Dervish Dancer in Pathfinder). Is there one in 3.5ed?? If so, any idea which book??

I have looked through some of the obvious books (Complete Adventurer and Scoundrel), but it wasn't there.

Could you please cancel my Pathfinder Battles Subscription. I just cannot justify the expense of the RotRL Case bundle....

Hi there,

Within this order I ordered this figure for a witch character. However, when I opened the figure she is completely missing the hand holding the spirit doll. Whom do I talk to about this, yourselves, or Reaper? And if it is yourselves, how is it handled?

I am planning on taking a Compsognathus familiar for my new witch character, but am having issues finding a figure.

The smallest Raptor I can find is the old Felldrakes from the Chainmail series, but they would probably be counted as Small, not Tiny. Anyone know of anything smaller??

Edit: Don't worry, found one on a 15mm site. They only come in lots of 6, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do :)

Hi there,

I understand the limitations on the Christmas Card order, but have one question. The Pathfinder Paper Minis are listed as Paizo products in some places and in other places not. Is the Christmas Card able to be used for them, or not??

Thanks

I love these dice bags and have been eyeing them off since I saw them with the Ennie nomination. Now for the question: Will you be getting in the taller ones?? The short ones have no hope of holding my dice. Like many of my fellow players,over the years I have collected a substantial number.

Hi all,

My husband recieved a robocutter for his birthday and I was wondering if there is any plans for the paper minis to come with robocutter files?? (personally, I would pay double for this, it would make the cutting out a breeze).

If not, has anyone made their own that they would be happy to share??

Hi,
I am introducing some players to PFS using the first steps scenerios next weekend. We did character generation last night, but when we went to register the characters, the registration page insisted that the characters had to have a faction. Is this going to be changed in some way for the first steps characters, or is there some other sneaky thing we didn't do??

I am introducing some friends to the Pathfinder Society, and we are starting the First Steps scenarios next Saturday (the 30th).

At what time are the scenarios generally released? As the scenarios are due to be released next Thursday in the USA, which is next Friday here in Australia, my time to download and print out is limited, especially as I try and use the printer at work:).

I have a couple of questions concerning the First steps scenarios due to come out next week. I am introducing some friends to the Society, and we are doing Char Gen this Saturday (the 23rd), and starting the first steps scenarios next Saturday (the 30th).

Question 1: How do we handle faction-specific traits? Can people just leave a trait 'slot' open if they wish until they choose a faction at 2nd level and an associated trait ?

Question 2: At what time are the scenarios generally released? As the scenarios are released next Thursday in the USA, which is next Friday here in Australia, my time to download and print out is limited.

Question 3: Is there an idea as to when the additional resources are going to be updated? I would hate to have to explain to the new players that something that is perfect for their character is out of contention because of timing.

Thanks

Hi all,

We have a home game and will be missing some players this weekend.

The remaining players wish to play a one-off, and my normal go-to for one-offs with other groups is PFS. However, we have three players in the weekend group that are totally disinterested in playing PFS, and two that have a number of PFS characters.

Can you play a PFS scenerio with a mixed group (2 PFS/3 other), giving the PFS characters their chronicle sheets and ignoring the others??

I'm not sure if I can do this, so any help is appreciated.

if all else fails, boardgames are always a back-up plan.

OK, What am I missing to get the coveted Superscriber tag??

There is a picture of this on the Reaper site, with a release date of March. Is it possible to pre-order it??

Hi there,

I placed a number of items (miniatures and a flip-mat) in my shopping cart, but when I went to the payment screen the pathfinder 15% advantage did not seem to apply properly, eg the $4.67 figure dropped to $4.24, not $3.96. Huh???

Hi Guys,

Just thought I would let you know about a problem I have run into with the wish list feature.

When I go into the edit mode and delete an item, it also deletes the item directly below the item selected. This has happened fairly regularly.

Hi there,

I have just recieved my two parcels containing this order (my Subscription from late July). However, I am sorry to say that the Gamesmastery Item Cards - Serpent's Skull Deck was missing from the order.

Regards

Sandra

I am currently playing a cleric and came across something weird.

The Searing Light spell does extra damage to undead vunerable to light. However, in the vampire's description, they are no longer vunerable to light. In fact in the whole Bestiary there is not one undead vunerable to light.

Is this right??

And, yes, I have looked at the errata on Vampires.

To all those who have played/run this module, a question.

We have a home game and mix up the GMs, the rogue's player is next to GM and picked the Third Riddle. In reading the intro, he stopped as he thought that this module may really need a rogue to play it. What do you all say?? Is it a scenerio that we need a rogue in??

I am a player in this, so no spoilers please

Hi there,

This order is for Sunken Empires, which was on backorder. However, recent info from Wolfgang indicated that this was sold out at Paizo. Will I be getting my copy??

Thanks

Sandra

With the new PFS Players guide requiring all those playing the 6 new classes being playtested to stick with the rules, including any updates to the classes on the messageboards, I think it would be worthwhile "stickying" the update threads so they are easy to find.

Although I look at the messageboards every day, as I don't live in the US, sometimes the threads have dropped off the main screen by the time I get to them.

This idea would also be a bonus for all the other people playtesting, as then we are all on the same page, and playtesting the most up-to-date version of the classes.

Hi there,

This order was sent to me in two separate packages to save postage (thanks for that), however I have a problem.

Package one containing Princes of Darkness I recieved fine.

However package two contained another copy of Princes of Darkness instead of Seeker of Secrets.

Did you wish me to send Princes back to you to swap for Seekers??

Thanks

Sandra

Hi there,

I have just played through my very first society session, and the DM has reported it. When I press the "sessions" button next to the character name nothing turns up. Is that where I should be seeing what sessions that character has played in?

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has done battle-maps for LoF they would be willing to share. I have found one of the Cactus fields, and the Refuge of Nethys (thanks for sharing erian_7), but was wondering if anyone had one of the initial encounter at the oasis, or any others.

I am starting to run LoF at the end of October and am just preparing, ie sorting out what I need to do, and what other have already done.

PS. Does anyone know what is happening with the paper minis line? They seemed to have dried up.

I just got an email from the company that I preordered the Pathfinder book from a month ago....something along the lines of, "Sorry this title is out of stock, we have cancelled your order, we apoligise for any inconvenience". I knew I should have stuck with Paizo, but the postage to Australia was just too much.

I feel really upset.

I just had to vent to some people who would understand why I am upset. To the rest of the world...it is just a book.

Hi there,

I placed a pre-order for Tales of the Arabian Nights in June 2008. It is now showing as available on the website, but I haven't recieved anything saying it is on it's way. When should I expect it to be posted?

Thanks

Hi there,

Sorry if this question seems a bit long.

I have preordered a number of PFRPGs (10) in 3 separate orders (3, 3, 4) to avail myself of the 'breakpoint' for international shipping. I now wish to do one subscription of the PFRPG from these preorders. My understanding is that the subscription copy would be considered to be from the first preorder (in my case order number 1140194) and the postage recalculated.

In my case the postage for this preorder is $45.05, as it was ordered when it was thought that 3 copies would fit into the smaller flat postage box. If the postage is recalculated it would increase to $57.65, the larger flat postage box. Or stay at $45.05 but only for two books, and my current August subscription postage would increase from $12.25 to $45.05 (oww). In this case could I request that my subscription items for August, with the current postage cost of $12.25 are added to the box of 3 PFRPGs. I am assuming they will fit as it is possible to fit an extra PFRPG book in. Then neither Paizo or myself are out of pocket.

Possible??

I would just like this clarified before I push the button for subscription.

Thanks

Sandra

Hi there,

I have just recieved this order and have recieved The Legacy of Fire Players Guide instead of the Legacy of Fire Gamesmastery Item Cards.

Did you wish me to return to you the Players Guide (needless to say, as a subscriber, I already have it), and then you could send me the cards??

Sandra

Hi there,

This is the worldworks Deadly Encounter set, however when I download it (I have tried on two computers) I only get a one page FAQ PDF, not the pattern that I have paid for.

Help!!

Hi all,

We have a player in our group who is playing a Druid, she is just about to get wild shape and has the following question: When in Wild Shape can she still use the at-will power Arc of Electricity from the Air domain?

As it is a supernatural ability there seems to be no reason why not that I could find. Anyone have any insights?

Further to this, does it (and other similiar abilities, including Channel Energy) work in the area of a Silence spell?

Hi there,

In the last couple of months I have ordered two lots of 3 Pathfinder RPG books. The reason I picked three is that it appears to be the postage "break-point". The postage for 3 books to Oz was $45.05 for these orders. Now more friends have decided they want some books at this price, however, when I place the order the postage has jumped to $57.65. Is this right?

If it is right, does it effect the other two lots of pre-orders?

Sandra

Hi there,

As an Australian customer I am constantly having the issue of not knowing what time it is in Paizo-land.

This is especially important on days like today when you have til noon to download PDFs.

Is it possible to have something on the front page showing the time and date for your international customers?

Thanks

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how many gnoll figures you need in the largest gnoll (and flind) encounter. i have my postage set up to monthly, so haven't received the PDF yet. However, I have found a local shop which has the old Chainmail figures extremely cheap (6 for $10), and wish to stock up on the Gnolls (and maybe some others) before they disappear.

thanks

Hi there,

I was doing some checking last night on what the most efficient number of Pathfinder RPGs is to get the minimum price per book including postage to Australia.

According to the postage calculator, postage for 1-3 books is $45 after that it increases dramactically. This of course means that multiples of 3 books (in separate orders) is the optimim amount to pre-order.

My question is this, how accurate is the postage calculator considering the book hasn't been printed yet??

Hi there

I just ordered a heap of items cards and although I applied the holiday code, nothig seemed to happen to the price.

Is it because of the 15% pathfinder discount?? Is the holiday code still valid if you are a subscriber??

Thanks

Sandra

Hi there,

I have a friend who is considering getting a Pathfinder subscription (and maybe others, he is still deciding).

As we are in Australia, postage costs can be an issue. Is it possible for us to combine separate subscriptions together for postage? And your experience, is it worth it??

Thanks

Sandra

Hi all,

I am running the vault of the Whispering tyrant, and can't find Turn Resistance in the beta, could someone give me the page reference?

Hi all,

This may seem like a bit of a silly question???

What is the effect of Channel Energy on Constructs??? I am assuming since they are neither alive or dead the answer is Nil Effect. Am I looking at this right?

As a supernatural effect would it effect creatures immune to magic??

Hi there,

I really want to support Paizo with the Pathfinder RPG. However, when I add it to my cart, the book is $42, but the postage is $44 (to Australia)....is this right???

Sandra

Hi there,

I asked this on the product messageboard, but this may be more appropiate.

This order is a pre-order of Tales of the Arabian Nights by Z-man games. Is there a release date for this yet??

Sandra

Hi there,

As these orders are both pending, could I have them in the one parcel if that makes shipping cheaper.

Thanks.

Sandra

Hi all,

Does anyone know how you can browse old threads??

Hi all,

I have pre-ordered this and was wondering if there is a release date yet??

Thanks

We had a Ranger in the party and came up against the skeleton of a Vampire. Although the Ranger had a +4 against undead as a favoured enemy bonus, he could tell us nothing about the vampire (whether it was dead or might come back alive) because he had no levels in knowledge (religion).

This strikes me as strange, that the member of the party who is built to fight the undead has absolutely no knowledge of their strengths and weaknesses.

To combat this maybe the ranger could get something like the Bard's Bardic Knowledge, but only in the very narrow bands of the actual creature knowledge, that is knowledge of undead, not knowledge (religion).

Maybe half Ranger level plus favoured enemy bonus to determine creature type and it's strengths and weaknesses, that can be used untrained.

We did a little play test last night and our wizard player noticed that for most of the specialisations, there is no advantage to the wizard to cast spells of their specialised school....maybe the wizard could have spell focus in their school, or something similiar.

Otherwise you could be an Illusionist for the illusionist special power and then not take any illusionist spells to cast, weird and takes away from the flavour of the class.

Looking at the universal school ability at 1st level. The ability acts like Mage Hand, but with the ability to swing a weapon.

If you are a human you can get one Martial weapon prof. Take great sword and do you some damage.

My question is this: Does the 5 pound max weight for Mage Hand still come into play?? Can it use a two handed weapon?

I have house ruled that the weight limit does not apply, but it can only use one handed weapons.

Thoughts??

Now for another question, does the sword get any or all buffing on the caster?? eg haste, hunter's bond from the Ranger, Prayer etc??

Hi all,

I've been hoping that the PRPG is going to fix the wonkiness of ECLs, but I haven't seen anything yet.

When I moved from 2nd to 3rd ed, ECLs were one of the things I loved about the new system, but as you play with them some more you realise that they don't work quite as well at higher levels as you initially thought they would.

Are there any plans to look at ECLs (or another mechanic for character races with non-base abilities) in PRPG??

Hi all,

I am trying to find a figure for a character who is 8 foot tall. Could anyone who has this figure let me know how tall (in mm) this figure is??

Thanks

Hi all,

Advice please!

Our group is going to be starting STAP in a short while and people are currently thinking of characters to create.

Currently we have a druid, a wizard, a cleric, a monk and a swashbuckler.

I am a big advocate of the balanced party so not to make the DMs job any harder and have the following questions:

Can you do STAP without a rogue??

Do we need a tank??

Or is Ranger a better choice??

Thanks

Hi there,

I placed an order on 3rd April and have been waiting for it to hit my mailbox. I was just chceking on something else and noticed that it was still listed as 'pending'. Could you let me know what the story with this is, please??

Thanks

Sandra
