In the same way that destroying a corruptible soul is inherently right? I think not!

Good Lord!

Those mechanics make me sad. Why give me the ability to craft at 6th, when the earliest I can get Ioun Angel 2 is level 10 (This ain't 3.5)? And I can already craft from scrolls, or better yet, drop the requirement. Otherwise, it's a good, fluffy idea.

I think the most reasonable temperature for the spell is body temperature ~36 C or a little cooler so it's comfortable to drink.

EIDT: Sorry, I misread the post. Instead, let me say that for a spell best suited to fighting fires - it should be conjurable as a liquid in a forest fire.

I don't want to see:
1) 5th edition's rulings-not-rules style that lacks consistency.
2) PF's multitude of rules that prevent you from doing things you should be able to, yet still have gaps in places.

I'm sure there's an elegant, logical set of rules that can be written that allow GMs to create rulings, but such rulings should be also be constrained.

A chakram thrower? Nice!

Circle Jerk?

I honestly thought it would be a less subjective method to get a feel for power level in PF, but it seems just as useless as other comparisons. Especially for the two examples I gave.

Perhaps some more tame classic heroes? Odysseus, Perseus, the Fellowship of the Ring, etc?
Just going by Wikipedia, Perseus slew a Medusa (CR7,3200), king (CR14,38400), Cetus (CR13,25600), noble scion? (CR2,600), and then more stuff. It hard to tell what level his career started, since anybody could get away with a coup de grace against any creature, and everything following was a result of him having Medusa's head. But with the XP total of 67800 (assuming Medium track and ignoring the one level at a time rule) he would be 8th.
I don't know where I'm going with this...

And the heroes of myth would, of course, be the survivors of their encounters. Nobody mentions those who died.

Authors don’t design their characters around the class progressions of the core D&D classes. Take, for example, a character who can assume an ethereal state without casting a spell. The only way to do that in D&D, using only the core classes, is to be a 19th level monk. But if that’s the only special ability the character in question has, it would be completely nonsensical to model them as a 19th level monk – they don’t have any of the plethora of other abilities such a monk possesses. What you’re looking at is a character with a unique class progression or possibly a prestige class. Or maybe a racial ability.

What about the characters that do have to use those rules, at least as a guideline? Does Drizzt level at the same rate as everyone? Settings like FR, Dragonlance, other stuff I also haven't gotten around to reading?

Sailor Aballon the android?

Suddenly roads become the best choice to boost your economy. Sounds realistic. Oases become extremely valuable.

Bonus cred: do it in the Mana Wastes, it keeps monsters relevant at higher levels, and has an excellent delicate political situation. To me, it seems like the best choice to keep the power progression in line with the increasing tension as the kingdom expands.
