I understand, but i think that you are overseeing the initial question asked in the FAQ:

Can I willingly fail a save if my ally is attempting to use an item or ability to benefit me ?"

and then the answer is

PFS FAQ states: "Pathfinder Society uses the optional rules published with the liminal on page 143 of Bestiary 3 for this situation, which are reproduced here:

There aren’t default rules for a creature choosing to be hit[...], but you can allow an ally to improve their outcome by one degree of success against a willing target or allow the target to worsen the result of their saving throw by one step."

Given the price in ACP of a Cat Folk or of a Hobgblin I would have liked to see their cost reduced, because being authorized to make many is fine but being able to create one, without spending too much, is better.

I saw that some scenarios were proposed on Play By Post - Where can we obtain more information, such as the frequency of posting or will it be played by email or forum posts ?

Hello,

good job

I have created over the last 20 years multiple web sites to manage character/scenarios/conventions for french speaking players

http://living.greyhawk.fr/
http://www.psop.fr/
http://pfs2.psop.fr/
http://www.starfinder.space/

Two questions/requests

1) character creation: Can you add campaign "PFS2" and also the factions related to PFS2

2) How do you link a character to a given scenario ?

Regards

Pierre

Hello, have you included the following boons ? (I have not found them)
- Skittershot
- Welcome to Starfinder Society Boon

Felicitations à vous tous.

Est-ce que celà signifie qu'il faut renuméroter tous vos personnages ? Ne vous inquiétez j'ai une option qui fait ça tout seul :)

If the sacred servant increases her number of uses of lay on hands per day in this way, that choice is set for the rest of the day, and once used, these additional uses are not restored (even if the spirit is called again that day).

There is this sentence, hinting that the LoH can only be selected once.

At 9th level the max LoH might be +2/day, and the second calling of the spirit is useless.

As a standard action, a sacred servant can bind a celestial spirit to her holy symbol for 1 minute per paladin level. When called, the spirit causes the sacred servant’s holy symbol to shed light like a torch.

At 5th level, the spirit grants one bonus. For every three levels beyond 5th, the spirit grants one additional bonus. These bonuses can be spent in a number of ways to grant the paladin enhanced abilities to channel positive energy and to cast spells.
+1 use/day of lay on hands.

These enhancements stack and can be selected multiple times.

If the sacred servant increases her number of uses of lay on hands per day in this way, that choice is set for the rest of the day, and once used, these additional uses are not restored (even if the spirit is called again that day).

A sacred servant can use this ability once per day at 5th level, and one additional time per day for every four levels beyond 5th, to a total of four times per day at 17th level.

So at level 8 a paladin can get

+2 use/day of lay on hands (+1 at level 5 and +1 at level 8)
and
he can use this ability once per day

I do not understand how many LoH i can use, and when ?

At level 9, is it +2 use of LoH/day x2 times per day = 4 LoH ?

There is fun to be had in this game.

If it weren't for the fact that I'm stockpiling recipes/spells/maneuvers/resources for playing this game in the future, there are many days I would just log into Skyrim for an equal amount of fun. Or for MMO fun I'd probably join my guild in playing SWTOR since I haven't burned through that game's content yet.

Hopefully the stuff PFO introduces in coming weeks will up the fun. The truth of the matter is they really NEED to up the fun, so here's wishing them luck.

That's what i did - i went back to SWTOR - I paid 18 euros for 60 days and I enjoy the game. A new update, with story content is scheduled for the end of april 2015.

Currently, i don't know if my subscription to PFO is still active or not (I think i had a 3 months subscription)

I was in fight when the server logged off, what will my character and/or my husk will be ?

In any case you should warn that the server goes down some minutes before it does !

I thought River Bank was on east side of pond. You may not see them if you play late. When towers are here we will see who is on when.

I'm in contact with Armenfrast, the leader of Riverbank. As an Everbloom Alliance member, we want to help him in any way we can.

I can contact him IRL if ever, a friend of mine.

I am still there but one is not enough to manage a settlement. Most, if not all of those I knew who where potential members of Les Compagnons and RiverBank have decided to stop the PFO experience.

I have tried to get in touch with as many french players as possible, as I think that a french speaking settlement and/or company should have a place in the game, but until now I have not received any interesting answer.

I am currently still playing a character, a wizard level 6 named Eldessa, who's member of the Emerald Lodge.

As a member of the Everbloom Alliance I am also in contact with Nihimon in order to find a way to make RiverBank survive. I do not want to be responsible for the first bankruptcy of the game :) and whatever systemic risk that would result of it ...

Well notwithstanding the fact that RiverBank might be declared in bankruptcy or not, my grand-daughter Eldessa is still willing to join the emerald Lodge. She is currently Wizard 5 and a few days ago she donated a +3 recipe to the Lodge Tailor.

Unfortunately her request seems to have been destroyed one hour after she deposited it, but she will send an other application this evening.

I'm playing the evening on continental europe time and the last two nights, in more than 4 hours, in and around TK, I have only met two dwarves and an elf.

I should try to go to RiverBank, but it is very far and i fear that most, if not all, of my potential french guild mates have decided not to play PFO.

They clearly expected something more graphical and more story driven.

yes, it's the same situation in RiverBank.

I have sent my granddaughter Eldessa to keep an eye on the sacred vaults. On her way from Thornkeep to RiverBank, she was ambushed by a group of goblin shamans, and she was cursed to respawn just near another group of goblins. She died once, twice .. ten times until she successfully managed to run away alive. Alas her equipment was ruined, armor, wand and staff destroyed. She had a spare wand and a spare armor, but no staff.

Now she is also barricaded in RiverBank, surrounded by ogres, bandits and wolves with an incomplete equipement.

Signed.

Settlement: RiverBank (Les Compagnons)
Representative: Armenfrast

Yesterday, I have spent some times gathering materials (Trash/Vegetal) around RiverBank.

What did i found:

Superior Hemp
Potent Brimstone
Potent Fennel Seeds
Potent Chickweed

I found nowhere what to do with Brimstone, Fennel Seeds and Chickweed, any hint ?

The "NUMBER 1 FEATURE : NO GRINDING" mention. I'm a little stupid that way, I thought no grinding meant no grinding.

Is saying "a little stupid means a little stupid" a little stupid?

From the pitch:

1. No Grinding- Pathfinder Online uses a skill training system like that of EVE Online. You train skills by choosing what skill you want to train and allowing the time required to elapse. You don't train any faster by farming mobs or spamming your abilities than you do exploring the world, role playing with your friends, or even being offline. You will need to complete certain achievements to complete a skill and open up new avenues of training.

Audoucet, after reading this, what, exactly, do you think 'complete certain achievements' means? Complete certain achievements?

I also had the NO-GRINDING in mind, and even if completing certain achievements was mentioned, i thought of specific quests such as finding a rare item or slaying a boss, whatever you want as far as it does not imply Grinding.

"IT IS TAX FREE, but you will need to contribute to the country growth"
- how will i contribute ?
- well the government will ask you to give money.
- so it is a tax ?
- no, no, it is not a tax, it is just a necessary financial compensation of not having taxes.
- ##??!!!

In version 7.1 the game took around 2,5 Gb of memory. It is too much for a 4 gb RAM computer running under the 32 bit version of Win7, as unfortunately Win7 32 bits only manages 3 gb of memory.

You should have to update (reinstall) Win7 in 64 bits and probably add 4 extra gb.

uhm heavy armored gish wont be a good choice soon ?

That system should run it ok. What graphic level was she using? Wifi or cable? Also make sure she's got the latest drivers.

Honestly, I had a Win7 64 bits / 4 Gb / nVidia GTX560

and the game crashed all the time (less than 30 seconds after game launch in V7.1 and during game launch in V.8)

I verified my memory used before and after launching PFO and PFO by itself occupied around 2,5 gb of memory and with the other apps it exceeded my 4go and crashed.

Since then I have purchased 4 extra gb, up to a total of 8 gb, and now the game runs without crashing.

Hm. Whatever they did, my Con has now dropped from 11 to something between 10 and 11. Guess I can figure it out when I have enough xp again.

Are you certain you're character did not get backdated again?

Same, but my Int. Might be that the gains from some feats got tweaked down.

Yes 2 two days ago my INT score was 10,982 and today it is 10,74.

I have taken Knowledge Arcana Lvl 6 -> Lvl 7 and earned INT + 0,095

Well yesterday i made a long trip from Marchmont to RiverBank and in between I have visited: Iron Gauntlet, Emerald Lodge, Hammerfall and Arkhaven.

I took me over an hour, and i estimate the time to cross an hex to around 3 minutes.

Well it seems that the answer is yes :)

I have been disconnected a few minutes ago, and now i cannot log. Are you updating now ?

RiverBank will also train Clerics and Fighters

The only settlements with no choices received are the Iron Gauntlet and Open Road. Everyone else is accounted for.

Is there a place were we can see the final list ?

Curious to see how many settlements have chosen Cleric / Fighter ?

Alpha won't be available until 3:00 PM Pacific, still about 20 minutes away.

Good this is the information i was looking for.

Is there a schedule somewhere or is it only open each friday from 3 PM to 9 PM ?

I'm not positive if Zog (all hail Zog) is up and accessible right now, but that error is consistent with the server firewall being set to prevent external access.

I have opened my own firewall, but it might be that GW firewall rejects my foreign connection - Are some uk, australians or german already in the Alpha ?

Today I have received two "redeem your invite" mail,
my account shows

My Account Enrollment: Thank you! You're signed up for Friends and Family Enrollment.

On my GW homepage i can see "Get Installer" and "Alpha Forums"

but I can't log in the game :(

You should log in now and learn the basics. Then you should stay up for ATwB.

I can't log.

should i use my goblinwork user / password ?

If i do so I receive the following message: "Could not connect to: alpha.goblinworks.com"

I have just downloaded the client. Can I connect now ? or should i wait 6 PDT (in fact not wait because Friday 6 PM PDT is Saturday 3AM in France)

hey it seems that i will soon join the Alpha test. A pity i leave on holidays next week :(

Is it the last week-end of the Land Rush ? and after, does the EE still begins in mid-september ?

Members of Riverbank interested in coordinating Roleplay with their neighbors please contact me.

Shameless bump for for the francophones while we are at it!

Thanks for the bumps - it seems that I already have exhausted the reserves of french speaking players.

One word: Awesome !

Nolondil, Audoucet, other Francophone friends: Sorry, I was making a small post-structuralist joke:

et pourtant cette lecture des élucubrations de Derrida n'a pas réussi à me dérider :/

Needless to say that whenever a new member applies, it makes me happy, but i should be happier if you leave me a word so that I know a bit more about you.

Live Streaming Guide

Obviously you are going to need a place to stream your beloved gamed play. I recommend setting up an account on twitch.tv. If you need any help with the settings in twitch you can always email me or send me a message on twitch.tv/goblinworks.

Speaking of the live stream on Twitch, it is mentioned "3pm Pacific Time".

Is it PST or PDT ?

Thanks

RiverBank Estate

We have just finished the 4th week of the Land Rush, and it was announced that it would last for 10 weeks.

Does it mean that the EE will start in early August ? and not in July as many seem to think !

Live in RiverBank (Join our community)

Hey guys - nothing is new there !

RiverBank is the name of the settlement co-funded by Phantasmagoria et Les Compagnons.

i am just advertising a bit, in order to show that even if we are able to speak french we should be equally happy to have, US, UK, australian , german, dutch, asian, african members...

The RiverBank estate is located at the extreme south of the map [AD] just under Fort Inevitable. This busy community is currently made of two companies: Phantasmagoria and Les Compagnons. Even if we are mostly bilingual English and French, we are opened to any free company, preferably Lawful (any) or True Neutal, willing to manage an Hex and defend their tower.

A fighting/Mercenary company would be extremely welcomed as the two resident companies are currently more crafter/cleric/scholar oriented.

Due to our remote situation, and peaceful relationships with our neighbors, our fighting activites will mostly consist of defending our rich lands against wandering monsters.

In order to apply send me a MP and i will forward it to the members of the ruling council.

An estate comprises the houses and outbuildings and supporting farmland and woods that surround the gardens and grounds of a very large property, such as a country house or mansion

Given that list, Auxiliary Structures might fit best. (Warehouse, silo, well, guillotine? One of these is not like the others.)

Answer: The well is under the ground, the others are not. Am I right ?

I don't like this blog.

Me neither as I am not a big fan of PVP, but I expect enough french players at OE to fill in the ranks. Meanwhile, you see the point of having a remote [AB] and GMT+1 (French) settlement, as we will be able optimize our pvp window in the most favorable way.

I repost it in Pathfinder-fr ASAP

Overs the last 2 weeks, i have played Pathfinder Society
- Bonekeep 1: Escaped barely alive
- Bonekeep 2: Stormed the whole place
- Fingerprints of the Fiend

and finished to level up my first Republic character in SWTOR - I still have to visit Oricon.

Yes but the order of priorities can be changed from one settlement from another:

For exemple Les Compagnons should set this order

(1) Oathbreakers Die
(2) Walk Any Road, Float Any River
(3) You Have What You Hold
(4) Courts Are For Kings
(5) Say What You Will, I Live Free
(6) Slavery is an Abomination (-> Indentured slavery)

And if you want to immerse yourself in this area read The Crusader Road tale.

Taming the Wild

When the aristocratic Vishov family is banished from Ustalav due to underhanded politics, Lady Tyressa Vishov is faced with a choice: fade slowly into obscurity, or strike out for the nearby River Kingdoms and establish a new holding on the untamed frontier.

Together with her children and loyal retainers, she’ll forge a new life in the infamous Echo Wood, and neither bloodthirsty monsters nor local despots will stop her from reclaiming her family honor.

Yet the shadow of Ustalavic politics is long, and even in a remote and lawless territory, there may be those determined to see the Vishov family fail...

I would like to see more stories like that. I am eager to read your future chronicles...

So we will have the opportunity to meet Theodun in-game ?
