Suggestions for Pathfinder flowcharts


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Greetings adventurers,

As I am sure most of you know our brains can only focus on and process small amount of information at a time(whether you like it or not).

One of the great ways to maximize the "processing" power we have is through flow charts.

I have made many a flow chart in my day for studies and the like.

Some benefits of using flow charts are:

-Flow charts improve the creation of a clear mental model
-Helps Define a problem
-Condense information
-Much more efficient

So I would like to (for the benefit of myself and all pathfinder kind) build some flow charts, as we all know the pathfinder book is rather lengthy and a sizeable amount of information can be condensed effectively and efficiently into a small chart.

Here is where you come in, through your adventures what was information you wish you had easy access to? perhaps in a condensed format?

I have made a blog to store these charts and take suggests as well, Go to pfflowcharts.

I think flow charts can benefit experienced players and new players a like pushing use forward, Harra!


You misspelled feat in your item creation flowchart.


Define "small amounts of information".

I really think a flow chart would be more difficult to memorize also.


Thanks thegreenteagamer, Ill fix that :)

@wraithstrike, The best example I can think of as small amounts of information is from programming, you break large blocks of code into smaller blocks, I can't define specifically processing small amounts of information because there is no metric(I know of), As information can be measured in basic terms in substance or length.

I strongly believe flow charts are easier to memorise, I find them to be as do many as they are so proponent in design, science, programming etc..

There are different kinds of learners though some more visual then others.

Flow charts also excel at being a point of reference as you naturally start from the right and follow a path, information does not need to be extracted from a wall of sentences.
