Hello there, Paizo Customer Service. Hope all is well with you folks.

I had a question about my most recent order. It is Order 15645987. My order has been in a "Pending" state for three weeks now and I am wondering why this is the case.

Are there items in the order that you are waiting on an inventory to arrive? Are there other problems with this order?

Three weeks is a lot to wait for movement on an order and I am concerned that I won't be receiving the items I ordered and paid for.

Thanks for any light you can shed as to the fate of my order. Please respond back on at your earliest convenience.

Take care.

Dear Paizo Customer Service,

I am very confused about the order that I just placed (Order 16846546). I intended to buy one Complete Character Folio 6-pack, but it seems like I ended up buying seven them. This is in line with the email that I sent to Paizo Customer Service yesterday (email from draconicmorph@aol.com, sent at 10:19AM EST) where I was seeing seven items in the order subtotal, but the number entry field was somehow absent from the page.

Another point of confusion is that when I went through the purchase process, the total appeared as $42.91, the price of one 6-pack of the Complete Character Folio after shipping and the GM's Day discount. However, the page arrived at and mirrored in the confirm email displayed the total displayed as $216.59. That is to say, as if I purchased seven of the 6-packs.

Can you folks please rectify the situation so that my purchase is only for one 6-pack of the Complete Character Folio. I would greatly appreciate it.

Let me know if you have any questions for me with this. Thanks so much for your assistance.

Take care.

Hey there, Paizonians. For my order #3634779, it looks like I was shipped the wrong product. Not only did I not get the limited edition of the "Visions of War" book, but the standard version of the book that I did receive was damaged across the front cover. It's kind of rough waiting weeks and weeks for your items only to find that one of them was the wrong item and that one being damaged, adding insult to injury.

I would like this situation to be rectified as soon as possible. How do we go about doing this? I guess I need to ship the standard version book back and you need to ship out the limited edition. That said, I really think I deserve expedited shipping for my new book. That seems reasonably fair given that Paizo received their money immediately from me.

Please respond back on this query with all due expediency. Thank you for your assistance with this.

Just wondering if the Pirate Encyclopedia from Gaming Paper is something that you have in stock. If not, would it be an ordeal to get your hands on the physical book? Given the accessibility of book, I am debating as to whether to purchase the Print/PDF bundle. Let me know what's what with this when you can. Thank you for any information that you can bring to bear on this. Take care. Dave

Hey there, Paizonians. In looking through the Occult Adventures, something I couldn't find was an ability or psychic spell that enabled the psychic magic wielder to see into the future or choose some sort of attribute whereby the character would spontaneously experience visions of the future. I guess what I am talking about is something that is non-implement-based (crystal ball, etc.), something that is an inherent aspect of the character via class, archetype, or discipline choice or otherwise. I guess there's defensive prognostication for the psychic class, automatic writing (although pen and paper could be construed as implements), access to the non-occult spells, augury, divination, and vision spells and the like, but I couldn't really find much else in Occult Adventures, particularly when what is sought is for the character to possess the ability to experience a vision of the future (no matter how inchoate) rather than merely information acquisition. Is this somewhere in the book and I am just not seeing it or maybe in a third party product? Any thoughts on this? Thanks for any and all information on this. Take care.

Hey there, Paizonians. I just picked up my copy of Occult Adventures and have been skimming through it. Something I couldn't find was an ability or psychic spell that enabled the psychic magic wielder to see into the future or choose some sort of attribute whereby the character would spontaneously experience visions of the future. I guess what I am talking about is something that is non-implement-based (crystal ball, etc.), something that is an inherent aspect of the character via class, archetype, or discipline choice or otherwise. I guess there's defensive prognostication for the psychic class, automatic writing (although pen and paper could be construed as implements), access to the pre-existing augury, divination, and vision spells and the like, but I couldn't really find much else particularly when what is sought is for the character to possess the ability to experience a vision of the future (no matter how inchoate) rather than merely information acquisition. Will I have to wait for another Paizo product or maybe a third party product? Any thoughts on this?

Hey there, Paizo Customer Service. I had a question about the availability of the Lords of Gossamer book by Rite Publishing. I ordered this book on October 1st, a book that was initially a part of Order 3199827 separated out into the order referenced in the title of this thread.

On Friday, I went ahead and contacted Rite Publishing themselves and was informed that Paizo had yet to contact them about being out of the Lords of Gossamer book which I take to mean that the book was not backordered through them. Maybe you folks have another source for the book, but I was kind of surprised that this was the case.

Needless to say, according to the message from Rite Publishing, they said they would be getting in touch with Liz Courts and would send out copies to Paizo ASAP.

Long story short, I am rather concerned about the situation and given that we have cleared the one month mark with this order, I am hoping that this can be resolved relatively quickly and my book sent to me.

Notwithstanding, if you cannot obtain this book, please let me know and refund me the monies involved. If you can, great, but, respectfully, I would appreciate some consideration in the form of expedited shipping. I have already paid for USPS priority service, so one- or two-day service would be kindly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your help with this. Take care.

Hello there, Paizo Customer Service. As I review the Customer Service portion of the forums it seems like there are a good number of orders that are pending. Notwithstanding, I just want to confirm that there is no problem with my order (Order 3199827), maybe waiting for the arrival of a book that was not immediately in stock. Here I am thinking that this might be the case with the The Lords of Gossamer & Shadow. I guess the upshot here is that I haven't received my physical books and hope that these will be shipped out shortly. Please let me know what the status is with the order. Thank you so much for your assistance with this. Take care.

Hey there, Paizo messageboardians. I am trying to locate good- or even neutral-aligned drakes who might serve as a steed or adventuring companion. So I am guessing a creature that is either medium- or large-sized. I have to admit to not having Bestiary 4, but cannot locate such a drake in Bestiaries 1, 2, or 3 and cannot come up with a third party product that bears lesser dragons of this ilk. Perhaps these don't exist at all, but I thought I would put this out to you folks to see if somebody knew of a creature that bears these aspects. Please send back any and all suggestions.

Greetings to the messageboard. As it has been something that I have been curious about for some time, I thought I would put in a post concerning high fantasy settings produced by third party publishers for the Pathfinder RPG. I can only think of a small handful of these and, in fact, it seems like settings that reside in other genre's have been the more successful or, at least, abundant - settings such as "Shadows Over Vathak", "Pure Steam", "The World of Aden", "It Came from the Stars", and "Terah" come to mind.

As far as high fantasy settings these are the only ones that I can come up with: "Midgard", "The Lost Lands" (although I am hardpressed to find a world guide per se), "Freeport", "Sovereign Stone", "Shadowsfall" (not a fully realized world?), "Realms of Twilight" and I guess "The Scarred Lands" conversion to PFRPG is potentially in the offing.

As I have seen a number of efforts to produce high fantasy settings for Pathfinder fail on Kickstarter and there is at least one that is more than just struggling now, I was wondering what other high fantasy settings exist for the game, are reasonably fleshed out, and are relatively unabashed when it comes to the tropes of high fantasy with one such being humans are just one of many sentient races and do not predominate over the entire landscape.

Anyway, I would appreciate your thoughts on this matter and any recommendations as to other high fantasy settings that are not listed above. Thanks for any and all help with this.

Peace.
