Hello, a couple months back, through what I guess was a glitch, I was able to purchase The Mwangi Expanse. Shortly after that it disappeared from my digital content section. I assumed someone fixed whatever glitch let me grab it early.
But now that the book is offically out, I thought it would return to my digital content but it has not. And the store still says I purchased it.

Can someone please restore my access to Mwangi Expanse? Thank you.

Is there any way to get some better organization for the My Downloads page? At minimum identify items that are PF 1st, PF 2nd, or Starfinder?
Because right now I have two different Beginner Boxes and the only way to differentiate them is by the Date Last updated.

I have the Core Rulebook and Bestiary under "Rulebooks." APG is under "Hardcovers." Bestiary 2 and GMG under the heading "Second Edition Rulebooks." If this could be organized like they are in the store all under "Rulebooks."

Ideally I'd like to be able to filter out games by edition, easily collapse different topics and generally just group everything better.

This would help me find materials more easily, keep track of what I own and what don't own and generally greatly improve the usability of that page.

I had an issue with this order in that it somehow attached to a defunct old CC number. I eventually got that resolved and thought it'd straighten itself out, but I see now the order is still pending.

Can someone give it nudge to get it charged and shipped please.

Grand Lodge

I'm sorry to post about this here after I've already emailed about it, but I don't want to lose the order.

I ordered this back at Paizo con and it shipped in 3 phases, 2 phases worked perfectly, the third for some reason failed to charge, so it went back to an even older, already expired payment method and when I told it to retry on the then current card, it tried that older payment method instead.

Now in July that card was deactivated by my bank and I was issued a new one. So now Paizo says I currently have 4 payment methods on files but only the most recent one will actually work. I've tried updating the payment method but that seems only to allow changing the expiration date. Can you remove all the expired cards from my account and run my current orders on the only current card. I have this one, a subscription payment, (31871401) and a humble bundle book order (31523363) all pending, only one showing the correct payment method.

For a while now I have had three modules of pregen that gave me an Axe Beak companion and I think I've finally decided what I want to do with it.

I'm thinking a Spellscar Drifter (Dune Drifter by the SRD) Cavalier mounted on the Axe beak.

For race, I was thinking human, but then I wouldn't be able to use it as a mount until level 4. Would it be worth going as a halfling or other small race instead so I can ride it sooner?

Does this sound like a good idea mechanically? Any recommended feat progressions or other archetypes to combine. Basically I have no idea what I'm doing and haven't played a cavalier or gunslinger before.

I'm assuming the axe beak is mainly to keep mobile and attack anyone that does get in melee with me.

There doesn't seem to be a good Cavalier guide that I could find. The only one I found says you can't use the gun for challenge, but PF people have clarified that it can.

So, I've played some Pathfinder Society games now and all three I played as a pregen character in a series of modules that gave me an Axe Beak as an animal companion or mount (I think, I don't have the sheet in front of me)

So I know the first time I play this character he'll be set in stone because once you play at 2nd level you can't dhange the character aside from standard retraining rules.

Is the Axe Beak worth building the character around? It seemed like a neat story thing, but I don't know if it's a good animal companion compared to a wolf or great cat or something.

If I do decide to build around the Axe Beak, what's a good way to do so? The pregen I played was the warpriest. Would a paladin be comparable to that and have a mount? What about a Hunter, that looks like an interesting class but I don't know enough about the system to know if I'm making awful choices.

What would you do for a level 2 PFS character with potential for an Axe Beak? Thanks for any help you can give.

So I've been invited to a game next week for a Pathfinder one-shot.
But I have a small problem. While I do have quite a bit of RPG experience, I've only played around 6 sessions of Pathfinder. All at low level.

Now I did play 3.5 as a cleric up to level 8 or 9, but that was over half a decade ago.

So I'm wondering what i can do for a 10th level pathfinder character, 25 point buy, human (or half-human) 62000 gp character that will be powerful but not overly fiddly.

Any more I play lighter systems like Apocalypse World or Cortex+ games, so I don't want to have to remember a pile of different things that will be +1 here and +2 there, but at the same time I don't want a boring one note character.

Just from skimming the books, I'd like to try maybe an inquisitor or gunslinger. Would those work? What classes/archetypes would best suit what I'm looking for? What woulld you play given the above guidelines?

In my first PF game, My half-orc ranger just reached level 3 and I'm considering dipping in another class, but I'm kind of split 3 ways.
right now he's 18 STR, 18 dex, 11 con 13 int 15 wis 10 cha (rolled stats)
his first two feats are
1. Quick Draw
2b. Rapid Shot.

I've been playing him as a switch hitter

I could go Fighter 1 and pick up 2 feats. PBS and precise shot, if I want to focus on archery or Power Attack and ??? for melee.

Or

Divine Hunter Paladin 1 would give me precise shot, Power attack and...
Would I still get to ignore DR with smite, even though I don't get a bonus.

Or

Ranger 3 favored terrain (infiltrator maybe?) and get bond and spells sooner.

Which way should I go? Anything else I should consider? Was considring monk, but I don't want to lose the BAB.
