Page 15, under Damoritosh, there's a typo. It should be "sacred" instead of "secred."

Looks like Con, Wis, Cha to me for the +2/+2/-2 Hard to tell but the only one I'm not confident in is the middle one being WIS.

EDIT: I'm now almost 100% after seeing a different picture.

I just don't feel confident enough to put it in. Way to blurry.

Edit: Guess who found better resolution images of the slideshow?!? The stats are +2 CON/+2 WIS/-2 CHA.

See I told you, also I think we found that at the same time then based on edits.

I've already seen it somewhere else, though I can't recall where, and I can just barely make out perception as a skill on the operative's skill list.

If I recall correctly it's no longer a skill you have to spend points on, you just get it. It's in the game for sure either way, Obozaya has a +0 Perception.

Just stumbled across some more info thanks to @BaconGolem:

Starfinder Goblin which also details the 'Step Up' feat.

Obozaya at 5th Level SP:45, HP:41, RP:6

Very interesting! I am surprised by a lot of things there, HP and SP together gives that character a lot of staying power, especially with damage being so low. Melee attacks look to be much more powerful than ranged attacks with both melee options averaging around 14 while the ranged weapons average 7.5 or 6.5... so ranged weapons are only worth it if it would take you more than a turn or two to close to melee? Those AC values are really high for level 5 as well, i wonder if that is the norm or if its just the Soldier being extra tanky but as is, the Soldier couldnt even hit herself without rolling a 16+. And those stats are also way high from what i would expect on a level 5 with two 18s and a 15. yeouch. And then if i am reading Cleave right it looks like it grants you an extra attack at the cost of -2 AC which would be huge since it seems numbers of attacks are so heavily restricted in Starfinder.


Looking over it and i cant shake this notion that there has to be something weird going on with the level 5 build... that AC and HP/SP would be boring to fight against, it would take a clone 25 rounds of swinging to bring it down. Put in a party of four and against this one enemy it would still be 5 rounds just to drop one enemy. And the only evidence of scaling weapons i see is that the doshko lost the unwieldy property, which isnt really a gain since you'd have to be crazy to take a -4 to hit for your second attack in a situation like that.

Hmmm.
The ranged damage seems a bit on the low side, especially compared to melee.
Why is the unarmed static damage modifier higher than the damage modifier of the weapon? Edit: for that matter, how is so high anyway? Str mod x3?

Obozaya is a damn good tank against her own clone. To hit herself:
14 or higher on the doshko against EAC
16 or higher on the unarmed attack against KAC
17 or higher on the flamethrower against EAC
15 or higher on the rifle against EAC
15 or higher on the grenade against EAC for a direct hit I assume

I agree, it doesn't look right for a 5th level character. Maybe it was just a quick mockup to make it a fair fight against the power armor wearing ogre.

I would guess the Doshko is 1.5 str and the unarmed attacks are primary natural attacks that also get 1.5? The level 1 mock up called them out as natural attacks at least and not just unarmed and if the expectation is only one or two swings per round than all natural attacks getting 1.5 doesnt seem to earth shattering. Aside from that, the character probably has some class abilities to be spec'd for melee but still that has a hard time explaining away all of those anomolies. And i am sad to see ranged damage is so low in general :(

A +10 damage modifier from an 18 (+4) strength would be x2,5 :) I'm guessing you are right that there are some class abilities we're not seeing.

I just hope that it's a mockup fluke (lvl 1 weapon stats for example), as I would have expected some scaling damage to be visual at level 5 already.

Maybe she has 1.5 Str + Dex?

That would be worrying unless its a specific ability from specilizing in melee for the soldier, if its a generic aspect of melee weapons than it will get very hard for guns to compete at all, no iteratives, no rapid shot and fractional damage. i want to see more dice and higher static mods on those guns! Can you imagine Obazaya getting into a gun fight with her clone? I cant think of anything other than that Mass Effect story about Wrex hunting a bounty on an abandoned station for so long that they all ran out of ammo...

There must be something we're missing, some part of the rules we haven't been shown yet. Otherwise combat will be a slog.

Haven't they said something about scaling damage bonuses at some point (something to do with the weapon specialization that's been mentioned, maybe)? Maybe you have to pick a weapon (or group of weapons) your damage bonus applies to, and Obazaya picked her melee weapons?

Yep I listed it under "damage scaling" in Miscellaneous Stats and Actions.

Do you have the Analog weapon quality listed yet? it makes weapons immune to hacking apparently.

I didn't know that one. Added it in. Hacking weapons sounds pretty cool too.

Already have the engineer also have what info was on those starship demo starship role sheets for the engineer and pilot (wasn't able to make out the descriptions of the gunners skills, although their names do seem pretty self explanatory).

No news about Triaxus...? =/
I hope the Wanderer has remained as my favored "Planet of Dragons", or at least still has triaxians around.

I'm still curious to known what "season" is going to be the canonical one - and by that I mean the one used in the starfinder campaign setting. I'm close to sure that technology will influence the planet's clime somehow...

I've not seen any new news about Triaxus, other than the dragonkin on the cover of the Alien Archive.

Also I've gotten early access to First Contact, but as it has not released yet, feel that it would be probably improper to currently add any information found within it. So unless said otherwise I'm going to wait until Free RPG Day day to break it down.

Will this breakdown include stats or just the flavour? I'm in the middle of nowhere with the closest store being 2 hours away with no traffic (so realistically more like 3 hours) and I won't be able to make the journey as I have work, so I would love to see at least the monsters and new races :(

Triaxus and what would seem to be a rather inaccurate representation of its orbit are shown on a figure of the Pact Worlds system from the Core Rulebook that was presented at Paizocon.

Since that orbit shows Triaxus just outside the Diaspora asteroid belt, I would guess that it is summer there. If the orbit shown is accurate, it will never be winter there again.

Usually free rpg day stuff includes an online PDF. I'd think this years would too, but I may be mistaken.

I thought that was the case too, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that there wasn't one for First Contact, I hope I'm wrong though!

The Free RPG Day publisher's agreement stipulates that print and PDF versions cannot be disseminated anywhere else until July 1. (So I can guarantee you it won't be June.) However, for a reason that I cannot yet share, there's a high probability that we may wait until August 17, when the Starfinder Core Rulebook (and the rest of the August releases) go on sale.

This is the best answer I could find.

Crud! I have a graduation to attend on FRPGD! Here's two people hoping that you're wrong, Luke. <-- but only wrong on this, I hope you're right on other life-type issues.


Yeah I thought so, damn... Oh well, I'm gonna get the book along with all the others on release anyway, just hoping I can find some stat stuff and get to see some of the art before the final release, paizo releasing new stuff always gets me super hyped!Plus I wanna have a look at some numbers, run some scenarios to get a feel for the balance and gameplay, that sort of thing.
