I would assume (I know that's a dangerous thing) that only after the 2nd roll would you reroll. This is due to the qualifier "would be defeated"
. If it said you must reroll any successful check then I would assume that you would have to reroll all successful checks.


I pointed this out at gencon and was told that Putrid Horror was just mistakenly made a henchmen.


I pointed this out at Gencon and if you look closely there is one set of card rewards that is not in the adventure path 5 (I.E each player may add x/x/x to the loot grouping). That is the one that should be added to 2-5d and the staff of hungry shadows is for 2-5e.


Both 2-5 and 2-6 were a ton of fun.
I was able to finish the adventure path with Grazzle.

I gave some feedback to Tanis.

There were two especially harsh scenarios in 2-6. I will be interested to hear how everyone approaches them.

I have retired grazzle (Tier 8) as I played that character in the special also.


Hi all!
Will put in my 2 cents worth ;)

Season of the shackles- never finished due to lack of organized play in my area
Season of the Righteous- completed on one character and tier 4 on three others ran out of time before runelord season started
Season of the Runelords- multiple tier 4 characters that I would like to finish out but work and illness have held this up last 4 weeks much less the delay in advnetures

Degree of difficulty- not sure I have really noticed a sifnificant difference between seasons. Some adventures have been more difficult than others.
1. Mythic path did make certain things easier.
2. The army mechanic was interesting, but we (as most would do I assume) planned ahead as to whom was taking which checks and then determined who would need blessings.
3. I personally found shackles to be the most difficult as it was my first exposure to the game and did not have a good understanding of the rules. Subsequently my familiarity of the rules and the characters have allowed me personally to be more prepared for scenarios.
4. Personally in orgainized play I have only seen 2 characters die, and they were when I was at conventions. It was due to POOR play by an individual at the table. Exploring at a site that had arboreal blight when the group was not prepared to each fight a tree. 2nd time was similar with demonic hordes. So when playing with my local orgainized play group I have yet to see a death (a number of close calls though ). which is what makes the game exciting and fun.
5. Ultimately I just have fun playing the game. With my local group. With most players at the conventions as I have played with a number of excellent players that I always seem to learn something new.
6. Its a game. Did you have fun playing? If so then......

This is coming from someone who has a number of characters in orgainized play (20 now)

I hope that nobody got offended by this post. Just wanted some direction. I am relatively new to the pathfinder genre and did not know how the rules for the special worked. I am looking forward to playing in both the special and the open.

Thanks to all that answered.

:)


Thanks for the feedback.
a little disappointed wont be able to play my top tier character. She finished wrath.
will make do though have plenty of options.


Have the rules for characters been listed/posted yet for the special at gencon? Interested to see them to try and determine which character would be best.

Just curious ;)


Is there truly a ruleset for advancing to Tier 7 or is that just an assumption?


Playing pathfinder adventures on iPad but I could do that at home.


Currently in Delaware and absolutely no action .


Anyone have any info regarding PACG at Origins2016?
At the event site with ticket in hand now 50 minutes after alleged start time and no one here has any idea. Very sad .


I got a chance to play through adventure 3 with Grazzle.

Was fun!

NO spoilers but they had some very interesting mechanics or as I would have said if played at paizocon with me...

"this is a ganky mechanic"


The goblin adventure RULED!!!
I had a great time playing especially certain abilities in the first scenario :) did not want to give away the content!
The reward was outstanding and made good use of it for the con.

With that reward not sure what to play in the special

Zarlova or Grazzle

Tough choice now that Grazzle has the boon.

Such difficult choices !


Kudos to all the Paizo staff, I had a great time playing PACG all weekend long.
For me there would be one aspect that would be an area for room for improvement.
Do not allow a slot to be scheduled and signed up for that doesn't exist. This is in reference to the fact that there were sessions on Saturday in the ballroom until 6pm yet we were ushered out around 315-330.

Thanks to the wonderful and kind TANIS we were able to borrow a box and played until midnight.
The same thing happened in 2015 but that was my first year so I was not sure if this was unusual or not.

My suggestion would be to allow for play to continue in another gaming area? Obviously for those not attending the banquet.

Two years running at this point and already making sure I have vacation time for next year :)


Any chance at playing adventure 3 path at paizocon?

At what point will the class deck character sheets be available for download for alchemist and oracle?


I am interested in attending this event, but when I looked up the event grid list I did not see any availability of season of the runelords. Is it sold out already ? only saw season of the righteous.

Just curious


thank you


I have bought two paladin class decks. One from my subscription and one from the local shop ( in order to support them as we play there bimonthly). The subscription deck was just fine but the one I bought from the store was missing a number of cards. All the level b and level 1 armors were not in the deck. To whom should I direct this issue for its resolution?

Thanks :)


Thanks for the info :).

Look forward to being able to download the materials ;).


Am I just missing this on the website but I cannot seem to find the Paladin character sheets for download. If any of you have played with me you have seen my notebook of my characters and would really like to print out the sheets for the paladins.

Any help would be appreciated ;)


Kudos to the entire card guild staff for preparing and running the open. It was a TON of fun. I had the pleasure of playing a wizard for the very first time in the quarterfinals and then a second time in the semi's.
Pirate Rob was an outstanding quarterback for our team.

I believe we did very well (finished 3rd I guess since we were alternates for the final round). especially since the 4 of us had never played together before. For me that was the best part getting to play with a group of people and learn.


Will there be any more positions opened for the open game at the con? Or will there just be openings based upon ticketed people no shows? If so I would like to place my name on the wait list now.


I had a great time. Was glad to see OP in the St. Louis area. Been waiting for this since gencon release of op 2014.


Glad to hear. Had a great time playing at diecon. I look forward to playing as often as work schedule will allow.


We played at Paizocon and origins as if that location is closed. I believe the reason the scenario states dont flip the location is due to the fact that it represents all the locations. As such some of the others may actually still be open. This way you wouldnt flip the card after closing one location and not then encounter the soldier at one of the other "open" locations.

I do believe that was the ruling at the time.
Hope that helps.


Having played adventure 2 in OP at origins that is not an error. The henchmen I believe is a barrier. Has a total of 6 possible checks to defeat and each character must make a different one. There are repeats among them sometimes so two characters may opt to do the same check if it is listed more than once.

I just want to thank everyone who came out to Origins to play with us! I got some very valuable playtest feedback for Adventure 2 and it sure seemed like a lot of people had a lot of fun.

I had a great time. got through adventure 2. did some adventure 1. really liked the reward for finishing adventure 2 ;)


You might want to consider just allowing some generic walkins for the open tournament.

Just got back last night from Paizocon was a great time. I personally played PACG the whole time.

Almost always had at least 3 people usually 4 per table.
On Saturday a bunch of people were playing. I think I counted at least 6 tables of 5-6 per.

I played one game with 6. there is one scenario that ok to play 6 otherwise that is usually too many (IMO).

I got three characters through the first adventure and one more just needs the last scenario.

I really never had a bad experience with any of the groups but I did gravitate towards some of the same people to play with that were fun and cooperative minded. Hope to see them at origins :)

If you have a character from S&S. You should read the guide regarding conversion of the character to the new season.

Only had one experience with a player going "rogue" and unfortunately it did lead to a player death at the table :(

KUDOS to Tanis and the whole team for making the PACG a absolutely outstanding experience.

P.S. except for the death in the playtest :/


I assume that we start new characters for wrath?


Thanks for the feedback!!

Look forward to attending my first Paizocon

This will be my first Paizocon, and just read about the event lottery. Not sure how this works. I am attending with the goal of playing non stop PACG all weekend. I did this at Gencon and had an absolutely outstanding time. One of the best cons of recent memory for me( I have been attending Gencon since 1992). Any further explanations of how the lottery works would be greatly appreciated. I have already bought my airfare and made a hotel reservation so kind of committed but just curious as to what expectations I should be bringing with me.

Thanks

Outstanding!
I played in almost every slot at Gencon this past year so will be looking for PACG at Origins :)


Is there anyone interested in PACG in the greater St. Louis metropolitan area?
I love the game and am seeking any groups or stores that are currently playing or looking to play.


Since Paizocon falls so close in relation to Origins will there be an official PACG representaion at Origins game fair?
Just curious :)


I still am unable to register one of my characters from GenCon. There is not ability to register Jirelle on the website. Before you ask yes I did complete the adventure path which opens up that character for OP with the Rogue deck ( actually completed the path with 2 different characters at GENCON that's how much I enjoyed the game).

Just curious
:)


No worries :)

Just hoping to really gauge interest in my area is all. Have already made initial contact with the venture captains in area. I think that the delay in class decks has derailed the startup. I just want to keep up the OP as I got a chance to play at Gencon and enjoyed it tremendously :)


Looking to find any organized play stores or groups in the greater St.Louis metropolitan area including the metro east. Don't mind driving a little distance. Lucky enough to have my class decks already. Hope that there are some peeps out there that want to play this outstandingly fun game :).


I had a great time playing with a variety of different people. I never really had an unpleasent game but some were more fun than others. I am relatively new to the Pathfinder society so need some help trying to find out if there are any local events/players for the PACG. What is the best way to find these groups/people? What is the best way to find out if there are any locally planned events? If i get enough lead time i can usually arrange my schedule to accomodate these events. I would love to continue to play and expeiernce the next set of scenarios. Also loved meeting all the peeps involved between the PFS staff and the players it was one of the best GENCONS for me in along time, and i have been going since the early 1990's.

For all you old timers yes i do remember going to Milwaukee for Gencon.

:)


Yes. If you were able to complete the path that unlocked the ability to play Jirelle in organized play with the rogue class deck.

Was fun :)

Hi all!
Just got home form Gencon. I played in MANY sessions of the PACG and had a GREAT time.

All the staff did an OUTSTANDING job creating a great experience. From mustering to playing to being just fun!

I was able to complete the adventure path twice.
Cleric Zarlova
Ranger Agna

Also played
Fighter Tontelizi scenarios 1-5
Bard Siwar scenarios 1 and 4

And the Coup de grace was playing Jirelle twice as a reward for completing the path.

I look forward to playing more hopefully a local group will take up the organized play.


thank you BTW :)


you are correct i was looking at the warhammer +1 and it did not have the magic trait listed on it.


are there any weapons that ultimately carry this trait? Doesnt seem as if the "+" weapons have this trait so the physical combat class characters are at an extreme disadvantage when encountering these monsters. Or am i missing something?
