I made some maps (Vladaams Villa mostly and started with the other maps), which I would share with you, if you like. There's also a great discord server from a guy who made a website (https://ptol.us/) for Ptolus. You need to register at that site, but it is very well done and a great source for material, as well as an interactive map of the city.
Will start this AP soonish and prepping it now. This thread is a huge help - big thanks to all of you. Has anyone had a player playing a Hellknight? I have one and I am thinking of making Alak's story his, at least, that he's searching for the ring of his father, as this is the only item he has left of him, the rest is only memories, so he would love to find his father's ring. Has anyone done this and ran into trouble later on in the campaign?
After being a subscriber from the beginning, new EU regulations now make subscribing for me no longer worth it. For a single volume of an AP I have to pay an additional total of 10$ for taxes. This makes such a volume (with shipping and stuff) far mor expensive than it actually is. So I rather switch to buying PDFs only (unfortunately you have no PDF sub).
Best regards
Well, after YEARRRRS I am starting with prepping Kingmaker and my first place to go and check out for published campaigns are the Paizo boards. I can‘t write a THANK YOU in every single thread so I want to throw a BIG THANK YOU to all you guys who posted their stuff and ideas here to help out fellow DMs (even sharing stuff via Dropbox, etc.), as those ideas are sooo helpful in prepping my own campaign now.
I am trying for 20 minutes now, to order Sundered Waves. Gets me always to the PLACE YOUR ORDER page, where all my clicks are sucked into the limbo...
Another reason why its not reaaaaally necessary for Pathfinder: Most of APs are easily cut short and made to be 2 or 3 part APs anyway. So 3 part ap would only really work for the tables that are never able to stay together 6 parts so they can feel like they officially managed to complete an ap. Or for groups, who would like to experience more different stories in a shorter time.
Yes, I would!
In my earlier days, finding time to play was never an issue. Now my players are grown up (well, at least one or two ;) , we have jobs, families, some work in shifts - so its getting harder to find time to play. Another aspect is the huge commitment, both in time (for everybody) and workload (for the GM).
I really wonder how many APs most of you have run or manage to run in a year?! Anyway... can we have 3-part APs for Pathfinder, pleeeease?! :)
"This adventure uses several Flip-Mats from Paizo's extensive range, including the Pathfinder Flip-Mat: The Dead God's Hand Multi-Pack accessory." Can you already tell us which Flip-Mats will be used for this adventure?! Would be cool, so I as the DM can start planning this thing out.And - YES - there can never be enough Varisia for me! Especially, since James Jacobs "told us" (in AP#001), that Lamashtu still has plans for this area. I really hope, after more than 150 APs, we will get to know more about those plans (and maybe the Mothman priesty thing on that island off the coast of Sandpoint)...
Are there any specific cards which are just kind of... too much?! I still consider buying the deck, and I have removed some cards from the old crit and fumble deck. Namely cards that capacitate a pc or let them hit themself with their own weapon.
So, for some time I am planning a new campaign for my group (that‘s why it is in the title, to keep my players out).
Hi! I am to GM for three 13 year old guys who will play for the first time. As 2E is awesomely easy to teach we will use those rules. However, I thought of GMing Emerald Spire for them. Anyone here who already played it and can tell me, if I just could replace the monsters with the 2E-versions (if they already exist)? I think that Plaguestone is a bit too much for beginners, as they have to do a lot of roleplaying in the beginning of the adventure and they've never played an rpg before. Or do you guys have a better suggestion as what to play with them?
I had so much high hopes to be able to get a pdf-only sub for stuff, as I almost always gm from my iPad with the PDFs. I would immediately sub to Lost Omens and the Core Line this way! Maybe for Charter subscribers who are with you from the beginning?:)
What is said above. Also, a problem I, as a GM had in most APs and Modules (with few exceptions)is: too less opponents. Most of the time PCs have to fight a single opponent and even if that one is 2 or 3 CRs higher than the party average it's normally 4 actions vs 1 action per round. Players
Hi there. I realized, that I no longer get the prewarning or shipping eMail for my stuff. I only heard that you had problems with DNS stuff on your website - might this be the reason?
Next question: You no longer do the "one file per chapter" files? Would be nice if you could shed some light on this. I am not complaining, just wondering... Thx!
Awesome book, with lots of details. I really like like some of the „old storylines“ have turned out - like the Glassworks! But, why, oh my why - didn‘t you put the 2 page picture of Sandpoint as a map into the book as well?! This is such an awesome and usefull picture! We had so many maps of Sandpoint and its hinterlands, but this pic - boy, I would love to have this as a poster!
So, I love the stories Paizo tells with his APs.
So, I read through almost the whole rulebook.
As I am almost only DM Pathfinder, I like most of the stuff I read in the rulebook, but I can understand the fears players might have...
I just found asking myself: Would I use rules with far less options, if the stories Paizo continues to tell are still as cool as they are?! This is a tough question for me and I wonder, who else thinks this way...
I always hate it, when I have to search a specific weapon.
P.16 of the Playtest Rulebook says: To calculate her AC, add 10 plus her Dexterity modifier (up to her armor’s Dexterity modifier cap), plus her proficiency modifier with her armor, plus her armor’s item bonus to AC and any other bonuses and penalties that always apply. To calculate her TAC, add 10 plus her Dexterity modifier (up to her armor’s Dexterity modifier cap), plus her proficiency modifier with her armor, plus her armor’s item bonus to TAC and any other bonuses and penalties that always apply. So, whatˋs the difference?
Page 88 of the Hardcover states, that the Direption was visiting the city several times over the course of the years 4703–4711, but that at some point after that the ship was reported as “lost” by its owner. On page 37 of ISWG under the year 4708 we can read that an aging King Eodred retreats from rule of Korvosa, leaving his untested young wife, Queen Ileosa, in charge of Varisia’s largest city. I always thought, according to canon, this AP would play out in 4708. Is this just a minor error, or did I get something wrong?

This is the boon I was talking about
Can a 3rd level pc get this item and does she pay for it? Please advise
I have a chronicle sheet that grants a level 5 uncommon item. The text on the cert says it shows up to the character one morning. So I have 2 questions. First it reads as "A character of your choice gains access" to this item. Does the character getting it need to be level 5, she is going to be 3rd soon. Also does she have to buy the base item and then get the special parts as per the boon or will she have to buy it ? Not naming things as I know people don't want to do spoilers etc. Matt
I am looking to buying the 40ap boon for an undead companion. I am looking to put beast master on my barbarian society character. I am wondering how I could heal a ghost shaped like a wolf at the table. Would an oil of unlife work? Any other ways to do this? Also it looks like at zero he dies and I have to bond again with a week of downtime or does he get the dying condition values? Matt
I am making an exemplar with the titans breaker ikon. Does this let me move the spark between two weapons that qualify for the feat, namely war hammer and great axe, or can I only imbue one. I understand only one can be active at a time but can’t put the spark into either one I chose? Also some of the defensive icons say that they grant resistance of half your level, does that mean it is zero ate el one or does it grant one? The powers do not read minimum of one specifically but I was wondering if it rounds to one by default. Matt
I am going to play a Cheliaxian born champion of Calistria. She has the bellflower agent background and will be smuggling halflings from Cheliax to Andorran. I used acp to get her into the Eagle Knights as well. Having trouble coming up with a good reason for a champion of Calistria to be helping these halflings. Please help me come up with a good in world lore reason for her mission to free the halflings. Matt
I have played a scenario that gives access to sawtooth sabers as a proficiency. I wanted to make this character a Red Mantis Assassin. The boon itself says that "this boon does not grant access to the red mantis assassin dedication or other options that require an evil alignment." Since alignment is gone does this eliminate this line of the boon and since the only other pre req is the saber proficiency and access? I have this character worshipping Achaekek and has the mantis scion background. So is all this enough to take the dedication at level 2? Matt
In pf1 organized play you were supposed to have a pdf or physical copy of every book you took something out of for your character. With pf2 and the Archives of Neyths, is this still the case? My wife and I plan on attending GenCon next year and I would like to know if I need to pack all my books. Matt
I have a character soon to be level 7, using gm credit from Age of Ashes AP, she is a champion of Calistria and a member of the Bellflower Network as a Chelish human. If I wanted to make her part of the Twilight Talons in the Eagle Knights organization would that just be a flavor thing I say for her or is there some in game feat/dedication/etc that I should take with her? Matt
I am running a monthly home game based on the Sword of Truth books by Terry Goodkind using the Pathfinder rule set. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice for me as I wish to keep this as long running campaign? I have adapted the classes to fit the world but left the core rules in place. I gave the arcane casters access to healing and tweeked some online representations of the Mord Sith and Confessor classes. I have set the story twenty years after the book Confessor and am not using the book Omen Machine. I have run one session so far and it seemed to work fairly well. I also stated out a gar based on the girillon from the bestiary. Thoughts or input would be appreciated. My basic plotline is elves have entered the world from a new dimensional riftt that they opened and no one knows how to take them yet. Matt
