This was a very disappointing decision for me personally. Pathfinder 2e has been my favorite game through the pandemic but I guess it's time to look for a replacement from game companies that are interested in returning to some sense of normalcy.


***Spoilers Below***

The elite purple worm in Fires of the Haunted City killed 3 of the party members, in a group of 6, that is one level higher than the recommended. I had to nudge some of the encounter or it would have been a TPK. The end of Cult of Cinders was a similar situation, but there was no where for them to rest in the entire place and they struggled with the Dragon Totems.
In Extinction Curse my party of 5 was TPKed by the Succubus in the first module.
I have found that the main fights in the APs can be very difficult. In the AoA AP that I am running, I have a Druid, Cleric, and Champion. all 3 with Champion reactions, so I would actually be kind of worried if they didn't have all that mitigation or I may have killed them sooner.
One thing to note though, is as a GM I believe in a living/breathing world. Monsters in my world do not live in a vacuum. So as time moves forward in game, I am checking things like, was there enough noise to alert the surrounding encounters. Would there be patrols, and other factors. So I do not always give 10+ minute rests, or I fortify the next encounter by that much.

Both the Magus and Summoner get four spell slots, that upgrade as they level up without gaining additional ones. You will basically only have 2 slots of each of your two highest levels, before feat investment.

This is a new addition to the game that we haven't seen before. It seems to be a form of casting that is considered appropriate to ride along with major features-- Martial Weapon Proficiency, or the entirety of the Eidolon.

How do we feel about this system? I want to read discussion about this because I'm divided on it right now.

I think this may pair well with Archetypes, since many of them only give access to lower levels of spells.


You favor weapons that you can use with quick, darting slashes like a cat’s claws. You are trained with the hatchet, kama, kukri, scimitar, and sickle. In addition, you gain access to kama, kukris, and all uncommon catfolk weapons. For you, martial catfolk weapons are simple weapons and advanced catfolk weapons are martial weapons.

Is the last sentence a typo or is this intended to be different then all the other Ancestry Weapon Familiarity feats?

This wording can be interpreted differently and looks like it could pair with other feats like Deific Weapon of the Champion.


most casters get a free sustain at 16th, so the example is even more crazy that that.


I'm posting this here in the hopes it will get more traction than my previous attempts at emailing customer service.
I placed an order for the Pathfinder 2e Bestiary 2 pdf and shows the order was processed but I am unable to download it, it is not in my available download list. Anyone know a better way to get this resolved?
