Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

Ok, here's my attempt at Alister in 2e. I decided to keep him as a bard for all the buffing cantrips, but I did give him the Champion dedication. I also gave him the divine blade feat, though I know getting Lay on Hands is probably better. I also just gave him equipment that I felt he needed without paying much attention to wealth. Beyond weapons and armor, he doesn't have any other magic items.

This is the first time I've tried to make a high level character. Much less spell power than in 1e, but he's more capable in a fight. The proficiency levels for skills act as a harsh gateway for feats. It just feels like he should be expert in more things even though his bonuses are pretty high.

How are we determining items and value? I was assuming we had the same items or is there a different way? I did not think Alister was in full plate.

The Exchange

Dwarf Paladin 7 | HP 74/74 | AC 25; Tch 12; FF 25 | F +9; R +4; W +7 | CMB+10; CMD 21 | Speed 20 ft | Init +1 | +1 Dorn Dergar: +11 (1d10+5) | Perc +10

I don't know why I'm having such a hard time converting Grimnir to 2e.

I think I've got an idea of what a dwarven paladin would look like, which is a Stonelord, and all the 2e stuff seems super generic so far.

I'm sure more options will be forthcoming, but I'm not sure what to do with Grimnir at this point. :/

It probably doesn't help that I've only played 2e once, as well.

I am pretty sure Grimnir has always been a goblin alchemist with high deception to make everyone think he was a dwarf warrior. :D


Tim - Alister looks good. Different, but good.

Thomas - Alister is picking up the Champion dedication, so he'll be a bit of a Chaotic Good paladin/bard - a natural leader. So yeah, he'll change a bit.

PW - Yeah, the system is new and doesn't yet have some of the bits a more mature system might have, like a Stonelord paladin. Perhaps I can work with you to make something that will make you happy (or content?)

I think that your best chances for dwarven customization are going to lie in the Ancestry feats. However, I want to direct your attention to the Living Monolith archetype in the the Lost Omens World Guide . You might find that to be a good stony addition to the basic paladin.

Some thematic ancestry feats might be Avenge in Glory, Heroe's Call, and Mountain's Stoutness.

Hope that helps.


Male Human Sorcerer(Fey) (Bard) 10 - [HP 98/98 | F+18, R+17, W+18 | AC 25 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 2/3] [Exploration Mode = Search]

Hey, all. Sorry for the disappearing act. Hopefully, I have gotten over the work mountain - we've converted regular rooms to isolation rooms in most of the hospitals in the area, and things should start to move back towards normal this week.

I got home tonight to find that Amazon had delivered my PF 2.0 Core Rulebook, so I'll try and dive into that in the next few days to convert Aristu. It looks like the Primal spell list that Fey blooded sorcerers have access to is fairly weak in Enchantment and Illusion spells - although the Feyblood granted spells do fix things a bit on the Enchantment side. The core illusion spells seem to be Arcane and Occult only, so i will look at the Wizard (or maybe Bard) dedication feats to see if that will work to give me access to Illusory Object/Creature/etc.

I was building a Cleric with a Champion Dedication. It may make sense to go with something different so the whole party doesn't end up Champions since that is what probably makes sense for Grimnir as well.

First of all, Nick, I think that's amazing! What is your expertise, that you know how to do that?

Huh, that is surprising, but you're right. I guess they were thinking "nature" and not "fey hijinks."

I'm writing a guide to the Pathfinder wizard (likely still months from completion),but I can tell you that there is plenty of room for Aristu and Piotr to differentiate themselves (more than in the bard class, I think). That said, if you want to try to cleave closely to your 1e identity, you could take a sorcerer bloodline that gets you the arcane tradition, but use feats to grab some primal cantrips and spells (much easier to do in this edition).

Your choice, of course, but I'd say that a Cleric with the Champion dedication is fairly different from a bard with the Champion dedication and that's still different from a Champion. It just means a heavily-armored party.

Or maybe you take a fighter dedication instead?

Another way to go is just to take a cleric with the Warpriest doctrine. It doesn't get you heavy armor, but it does free up those feats for something more cleric-y.


Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

Alternatively, Mikhail, you could be a fighter with a cleric dedication. A sword-and-shield fighter is really good in 2e with how shield block works. Or you could go full greatsword with power attack. It's devastating. And just have spells for backup/buffing.

Aristu, I think Bard dedication with Fey sorcerer would be good. Keep in mind, however, that your Occult spell attack/DC will not advance with your Primal spell attack/DC. So it could make for relatively weak illusions/enchantments. Alternatively, you could go Hag bloodline. It mentions changlings and the hexes/curses might mechanically fit too. You could reflavor it to be a sort of a "so beautiful, it drives you mad" thing.

Alister was never in heavy armor before, and if I gave him more dex, he could do medium armor instead. This Alister is much more a lead from the front-type. I did think about doing the Dex route instead and giving him a bow and rapier. The biggest thing is not having the skill versatility that he did in 1e. But in 2e, you can't have that and be the performance buffer.

I was looking at the fighter and cleric dedication or the cleric with the fighter dedication.

You can't convert to healing in this edition so how much actual healing is needed?


Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

Healing is needed a lot in this edition. It actually can be very brutal. However, spells are almost always used for in-combat healing. Out of combat, there are multiple ways to heal that don't use spell slots. Medicine is the most common. Make a DC15 skill check and you heal 2d8. Crit that (make a 25) and you heal 4d8. It's common to have 2 or more people in a party that are investing in Medicine to be downtime healers. Two feats that are nearly mandatory for any healers are Ward Medic and Continual Healing, but they're both skill feats and open to everyone.

2e has multiple mechanics that all take 10 minutes to perform. Medicine checks are one of them. Fixing a shield takes 10 minutes. Regaining focus spells takes 10 minutes. In practice, that means that nearly everyone has something to do after a fight that takes 10 minutes, and therefore everyone wants to take at least 10 minutes after a semi-serious fight. The question of when to rest is now, when to take a 10-30 minute break. After about 30 minutes, the party should have refreshed a lot of resources and is ready to roll again. Maybe not in tip top shape, but enough to handle a serious fight again. Yes, spellcasters are supposed to be using cantrips nearly all the time.

Cleric do get extra spell slots just for healing spells. So they're still the best at healing. Plus, Medicine is driven off Wisdom, so they're natural healers out of combat too. No converting spell slots, but you get dedicated ones, so your normal slots can be for other spells.

Don't read if you hated absolutely everything from D&D4e:
Another way to look at this:
Cantrips, combat feats, skill effects = At-will powers - Your bread and butter tactics you use nearly every round
Focus spells (lay on hands), shield block, rage = Encounter Powers - Use it once each fight, but essentially unlimited each day (or 240 times/day, I guess)
Normal spells, alchemy = Daily Powers - Hold it for the real challenges

So Abadar's favored weapon is a crossbow and I was looking for the rules on them, but as far as I can tell there are no loading time rules and the Fighter feat that lets you shoot multiple arrows as one action works with the crossbows since they are part of the Bow group.

Is this correct?


Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

Ranged weapons have a Reload value. Here's the relevant passage:

Reload:

Source Core Rulebook pg. 279
While all weapons need some amount of time to get into position, many ranged weapons also need to be loaded and reloaded. This entry indicates how many Interact actions it takes to reload such weapons. This can be 0 if drawing ammunition and firing the weapon are part of the same action. If an item takes 2 or more actions to reload, the GM determines whether they must be performed together as an activity, or you can spend some of those actions during one turn and the rest during your next turn.

An item with an entry of “—” must be drawn to be thrown, which usually takes an Interact action just like drawing any other weapon. Reloading a ranged weapon and drawing a thrown weapon both require a free hand. Switching your grip to free a hand and then to place your hands in the grip necessary to wield the weapon are both included in the actions you spend to reload a weapon.

Something about that passage seems overly complicated to me (isn't a -, the same as a 1 then?), but basically, crossbows still require an action to reload. But you get 3 actions now, so you could fire a loaded crossbow, reload, then fire again in a single round. I think there's a fighter or ranger feat that reduces the reload time.


Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

Ok, here's Alister with a Dex focus. More bardy with an Imperial sorcerer dedication to speak to his possible backstory. This Alister would be more of a commander: doing buffs, demoralizing enemies, and blasting them with spells. Faster with nearly the same AC, less hp, more skills, including Lore (Greenbelt), more focus points and more ways to use them. Overall probably more versatile except in a straight up fight. This might be more faithful to 1e Alister even though 1e Alister had Strength focus.

As I play around with builds I have to say that I like so much about Abadar, but in a system that seems to actually care about the deities favored weapon, the crossbow is such a super sad weapon.

Oh I don't know. The same damage as a composite longbow, a better range and it doesn't have the Volley trait, which is important. It's slower, but in 2e that doesn't matter so much because of the Multiple Attack Penalty. If you fire three arrows from a longbow, your third attack is at a -10, so you're usually far better off doing something else, like taking cover. This means they have a similar effective rate of fire.

Ok, so I made three builds because I find too much fun in making characters.

The first is the closest to what he is now. The second drifts, and the third assumes that I give Alister my Full plate and turn to a modest life of tending to the people of the Greenbelt as more of a monk priest then a warrior and embrace the crossbow. I could probably embrace it with the second build as well if we want to not make drastic life changes over the next two years.

Some of the skill feats are subject to changes. In regards to magic items, for the first two builds I tried to keep the items as close as I could to what I had in 1e. For the last I assume I traded in items to get this. Sadly, some of my items no longer exist.

Bye Pearls. :(

First of all, Nick, I think that's amazing! What is your expertise, that you know how to do that?

So to be clear - I'm not the one working in the hospitals - that would be our 7 techs - who have been borderline heroic doing what they do during the pandemic. I get everything ready for the job - when someone wants to contract us I download the building plans and go through them to determine how much work will be required to do the job so we can quote them a price. Then, if we are hired, I put together the relevant plans for the techs so they know exactly what needs to be tested/adjusted/balanced to get the desired results. My expertise, i guess, is (a) the ability to adapt to all kinds of unique scenarios and (b) a couple of physics degrees.

Aristu 2E is complete (except for equipment). I will type him up and post him later today.

I am leaning towards the Fighter/Cleric version. It has the most versatility I think and can do some work with the Abadar's crossbow if needed.


Human Bard (Sorcerer) 10 [hp 128/128 | F+18, R+19, W+18 (+2 vs Sleep) | AC 28 | Perception +15 | Focus Points: 3/3]

I think fighter/cleric looks good. And I'm considering the more Dex version for Alister. I like the Imperial Sorcerer dedication flavor.

OK, here's Aristu - my first attempt at a 2E character. If anyone more knowledgeable in the system sees something I missed, or has a suggestion, I welcome the input. I wasn't sure how we were handling magic items, and after being unable to find Rings of Protection in 2E (weird), I decided to wait on finishing equipment until i knew how to proceed.

He definitely is different from Aristu 1E, but I managed to maintain all the important abilities.

Thomas: I think a Fighter with a Cleric dedication works very well for Mikhail. Tell ya what. If, at the end of Book 3 you wish you had done it the other way 'round, you can change it then.

Nick, your PC looks fine, but there are no rings of protection (or cloaks of resistance or headbands of wisdom, etc. One of the design goals for 2e was to get rid of the need for the "standard" items, so they're just gone. This has the excellent benefit of keeping armor classes and ability scores bounded within certain reasonable limits based mostly on your level. So, go ahead and choose something of a similar price. Treat yourself!

OK, but in this case the "Ring of Protection +1" effect came from the ring taken from the Stag Lord. How do you want to handle that?


I'll give it some thought.


For a man scarred heavily by acid, I think a ring of acid resistance makes a lot of sense. Let's make it that.

Here is a sneak peek at the Guide to the 2e Wizard I'm working on. I don't like to publish unfinished works, but if it helps you, here you go.


I'd like to delay the final moment of the adventure until everyone is ready with their 2e characters. Some of the changes are going to be explained away by your transition out of the Faerie realm.

How's everyone doing with their new characters? Anyone still working on it?

John, did my link help you at all, or make things worse?

PW, I haven't heard from you in a week. You okay?

Yes, you're about to make 8th, so your 2e characters should be 8th level.

The Exchange

Dwarf Paladin 7 | HP 74/74 | AC 25; Tch 12; FF 25 | F +9; R +4; W +7 | CMB+10; CMD 21 | Speed 20 ft | Init +1 | +1 Dorn Dergar: +11 (1d10+5) | Perc +10

Yeah, I'm still here. Honestly, I've only played 2e once, so building a character is feeling a little overwhelming. Plus, I really love the idea of a Stonelord dwarf paladin, but not so much a vanilla dwarf paladin.

So we have a Fighter, Wizard, Sorcerer, and Bard?


I do understand, PW. Personally, I liked the paladin idea for roleplaying purposes. Hopefully a somewhat diligent GM and a good story will make up for the loss. You are, of course, welcome to create a new character if you like.

So I think we have:

Alister - Bard/Sorcerer
Aristu - Sorcerer/Bard
Mikhail - Fighter/Cleric
Piotr - Wizard

So... arcane and occult magic are pretty much covered! But the design space is wide open for an Alchemist, Barbarian, Champion, Druid, Monk or Ranger. Or even a cleric, because Mikhail will primarily be a combatant with some healing.

Alchemists and Barbarians both fit the story well because of the nearness of Numeria. Obviously, druids and rangers fit into the outdoorsy nature of the story. Champions could be on their way to or from the nearby Worldwound. And there are always monasteries for a wandering monk to be from.


Human Fighter [Cleric & Alchemist Devotion] 10- HP 136/136 - AC 30 - F: +19 R: +18 W: +18 - Speed: 30, Init: +5 - Perception +21: Hero Points- 0: Exploration Activity=Investigate

So if you take Druid, Druid Dedication, Ranger or Ranger Dedication then its a feat to have an animal companion. You could take Badger and just say that your elemental is shaped like a badger. You could possibly keep part of what you had. Badgers have a burrow speed. It would not be as good as gliding through stone but it would not be too far off.

The only downside is you would need armor made of stone or something else Druid would limit your armor options, but Ranger/Champion or Champion Ranger would give you heavy armor and a stony pet to wander around with.

Or....goblin rogue/ranger with great deception skill who dresses up like a dwarf as they are more respected and paints his badger brown like an elemental.....

John, did my link help you at all, or make things worse?

Yes, it did. I will switch to Widen Spell, rather than Enhanced Familiar.


Ooh! A blasty choice. :-)

Okay, folks, I am ready to proceed, but I'd like to make sure that all of you are. Give me the thumb's up when ready (and change your header).

Okay--I'm still trying to figure out my character. Because I have not really done much 2e (let alone a lvl 7), I will need a little more time.

If I can make Grimnir work as something I enjoy, I'll stick with paladin (though also considering druid). If not, I will probably reroll. I liked some of the ideas.

Anyway, I'll try to work on it this weekend. Feel free to carry on, though.


Okay, PW. This next stretch is all downtime with a little light roleplaying, so chime in when you're ready!

Also, I'm available for suggestions, help and/or kibbitzing if you need it.

Ooh. Yeah, I do want them to.

I don't see why they can't be used as-is. Go ahead and add them to your characters as a legacy.
