Hey guys! So I noticed that on here and on the subreddit there’s a rather massive amount of negativity surrounding this book, and it seems like it’s causing a sort of negative echo chamber feedback loop so I want to try to break that up a little!

So what’s some positives for War of Immortals? What do you like? What is your favorite thing about it? I’ll start!

I love the Animist! Genuinely one of the coolest designs I’ve seen for anything in a tabletop. In fact I think both classes are absolutely masterworks of game design.

And I know this is probably controversial, but I actually really like the Vindicator! It’s a bit clunky mechanically but I’ve been playing one with my roommate who has his pdf copy and it’s absolutely so much fun to roleplay and I’m doing really good damage!

I know this book isn’t perfect, but I also just want to know what people like after the last week or so of hearing every negative opinion a person could have on the book from every community.

Let’s hype up the community for what is - for the most part - a pretty great release as we wait for the full public launch!

I’m not sure if this is the right place for asking about this, but I don’t think it really cleanly fits anywhere else, and I’m curious.

So to me one of the biggest advantages of pathfinder 2e is that you could play multiple characters of the same class and still manage to make two wildly different characters.

And as I have been attempting to make a solo game for myself for some time now, I wonder if I might be able to take this to its logical extreme and make an entire party off one class.

And I think I want to do so using what is generally thought of to be one of the weakest classes in PF2e. So I have a question that I may post on the subreddit as well.

How would you make an entire party of alchemists? I’ll be playing with the rules my group nearly always play with since that’s just how I like playing, so the rules are you can use ancestry paragon, free archetype, and gradual ability boost. Each member should use any of the different subclasses, but no duplicates. And they should fill a different role for the party. I don’t want a bunch of bombers or mutagenists. Oh and remaster rules only.

And before I get comments, I do understand this is ridiculous and unbalanced. That’s the point to an extent. I want to see how far this can be pushed with one of the most underpowered classes in the game.

If this fits somewhere else, please let me know. I’m new to the forum and I’m not entirely certain where this should go.

Thank you in advance for your replies!

I’m looking for creatures/monsters that would be appropriate for a game set in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings. Obviously Linnorms, and I think giants and their kin are common. What else could I throw into an encounter table?

Also what ancestries would be appropriate? Any class restrictions I should think about? I’m trying to make this as lore friendly as I can. Any help is appreciated!
