(Elfteiroh: SNIP to limit tunneling) Usually, other sites that DO something about it just remove reviews entirely. There's also a lot of sites that are starting to remove comments entirely for similar problems and raising demands on moderation.
How do we get the points for following on social? I rarely use my real name places if I can help it (looking at you Facebook 2004) and my user name here is not the same as elsewhere. On other places I've seen have things like that, I have seen two ways. A "link account" setting, that ask permissions, and long-term link the two accounts. This is overkill, and is usually used for interactions that are WAY more "in-depth". OR less intrusively, a link that temporarily connected to these socials API, asked you to log in, checking if you followed, and offering you to follow if you didn't. If you follow (or already followed), the API send back a message to the site saying: "Yup! They followed!" and the paizo site would give us the 5 gold.
The problem is I never know where to find AP hub pages, because when you search, say, GateWalkers on Paizo, the hub page does not come up, or if it is there, it certainly is so low down the list I won't know where to find it. In the site's top menu, Pathfinder -> Adventure -> Adventure Path. This should bring you to this page, that contains links to all the PF2 adventure path hubs, from latest to oldest.Additionally, at the top of all AP books (including this very page here), there should be a "path" that looks like this:
Pathfinder / Adventures / Adventure Path / Gatewalkers (#187-189) If you click on "Gatewalkers (#187-189)", this will also bring you to the AP's hub.
Was this module ever updated to PF1e rules? It was written using the PF1 rules, so I'm confused. xD If you meant PF2, then not officially no. I can fin a reddit thread of someone that did do a bit of a fan conversion, but only up to level 5. Otherwise, it's already PF1e. :3
Ok, I went back and made full calculations based on my own last 12 month.
That would be 1537.78 gold (assuming they count decimals...) +25 birthday bonus. More than enough for all society scenarios, and between 30$ and 35$ off of other purchases (or 10% off of a very big purchase, which has the potential to be more), OR 100$ off total from anything, or 3x 10% off, if you don't want the society scenarios. Also to note, my AP purchases have been made under the legacy 30% off, it would be ~50$ higher if it was just the 15% from Legendary, and thus a bit more gold. xD We don't know what will happen to the old legacy advantage, but looking at the numbers, the impact is lower than I expected if lost. The rest of my purchases are all made under the base 15% discount I have. There's also the caveat that we have seen the remaster of the spell cards in the last 12 month, that HAVE inflated the Accessory line a bit. The next 12 months will probably be more representative. (And I'll probably start buying Starfinder books too because of the inter compatibility, so... yeah... xD )
They HAVE a Bluesky account, I'm not sure why it's not listed as an option. This is an incredible turnaround speed! :O But the screenshot now show "completed" instead of the gold reward for joining. :P I see that it was taken on a test server! Which is even more impressive TBH. xD
We will probably be legendary tier if we currently qualify for paizo advantage. Which will mean we keep our 15% discount. But it's tied to that $750/year threshold now instead of having 4 subs. I'm at 4 subs: PF Rules, PF Adventure, PF Accessories, and PF AP and it would only take me 9 month to hit the 750$, so yeah, if you have 6, your guaranteed... and that's 1150+ gold to spend however you want (I counted the birthday bonus). 20 society scenario is 1000 gold... but like I said, for me that only take about 9 month to hit, so I have 3 more months of gold that are fully "extra".
I counted, and I would only be needing my last 9 months to be legendary if it started today. Looking at the numbers, I could drop the AP sub (for me it was 30% off because of Legacy advantage, so that would be ~250$ less per years) and still manage to keep the 15% off that I had with 4 subs. (I won't drop it, cause I really like my full PF2 AP collection). The only thing I "lose" is the Society scenario, but the gold I gain just in these 9 months is probably enough to get them for free anyway. And I have leftover gold. So yeah. My quick napkin math do seem to show it being a bit better, even if I will need to do some more manual transactions, as I'll have to redeem that gold to "buy" the society scenarios manually, but eh, I'll also get to use these rewards a bit more flexibly, like the remaining gold will probably be enough to buy a couple lower cost things, like the physical free RPG Day adventure I missed. And if I didn't want the scenarios (which I do, but I'm talking hypotheticals here), that would be a lot of gold to get discounts on mor products instead of getting scenarios I wouldn't have wanted (hypothetically, of course). Oh, and that wasn't even counting the birthday gold and the potential review gold!
Announced for November! Product images and descriptions are not final and are subject to change. :) Purchases here is directly through Paizo, yes. They sell the books at the "manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP)" they give to retailers. These retailers can then sell it at the price they want, but Paizo follow it to be "fair" to the stores.
This is an anthology of 3 story-related adventures, where you will be playing 3 different party of characters, one of them is evil. The first adventure start at lvl 1, playing low level survivors in the gravelands, trying to not die. The characters should reach lvl 3 by the end of that part. The second adventure, the players switch to playing the villain's side. They are level 7, and would reach 8th level by the end of that part. The third one, the players go back to playing a group of heroes, starting at lvl 18 this time. The last chapter of that part is played at lvl 20.
I was going to ask for fiction, but a movie works!As a fan of them myself, I second this! Movies often get novelized. :P So why not both? xD(But yeah, a novel/ series of short fictions is probably more likely TBH.)
From what I heard on this stream, Roadmap To The Stars, after the 24 minutes mark (link time-stamped), it's a 60 pages adventure all happening at level 1, so no level up, despite it having as much content as other adventure books (like Plaguestone for PF2 gets to level up twice in the same amount of pages), but here they are trying something new.
They are basically Isekai protagonists... :P I guess some Jotunborns will be "transported" against their will and will be a little less... motivated than our iconic here, and will want to live an easy-going live with their cheat abi... oh wait. They don't get cheat abilities. Oops. xDMythic powers are right there if you want the full Isekai experience. heh. Well... About that... Roll For Combat released a free BattleZoo supplement named "Battlezoo Otherworlders" as a PDF. Yes, it was released on April's Fool, but it's written by Mark Seifter, and the "broken, unbalanced" stuff is clearly marked, so... Surprisingly, most of it is actually balanced-ish and usable without change in an actual game... But if you want real Isekai cheat abilities, you COULD have the relevant Pathffinder AP books with you, letting you know everything about teh adventure in advance... (It's the effect of the Analyze cheat ability at SS tier. It also mechanically make all your checks one degree success better. TBF, that's the weakest SS tier (broken) cheat ability, but yeah. xD )
I've never done Free RPG Day before. If I travel a couple hours to a shop that has the books, will I just be able to pick them up, or is there a requirement to play since I won't be GMing because my local shop isn't participating? There's not a lot of set rules... Shops may vary, but from my experience, the stuff is usually just spread on a table and people pick what they want from it. Because I know the stores have to pay to get these, I usually always try to buy at least one item at the same time I pick up the stuff, as a courtesy, and in hope that it will encourage them to keep doing it every year.

It's the soft lines of the face. Soft round eyes and nose!
Is there anything at all for kinetecists? Or anything from treasure vault that previously helped strikes and spells, and now includes impulses in that?No. Some items were converted away from spell schools or other premastered concepts. The only thing that jumped out at me as not fitting this is the Addiction Suppressant being converted to an Affliction Suppressant, and to a lesser extent an animal companion assistive item being changed from barding to just a worn item. Yeah, the rules for drugs, and thus "Addictions" were not reprinted between Gamemastery Guide and GM Core, so yeah.
They are printed on the inside covers, these are not counted as pages.
Aaaw!!!
I've been playing TTRPGs for decades. Since early 2000s with AD&D 2nd. At one point, I looked back at my characters, and realized that ever since I had finally got the courage to finally play a female character seriously, all of them were. This realization pushed me to try playing a man again and... it felt wrong. But the more I was thinking about it, the less I felt right playing women either. That was around the time I was finally learning about the wide variety of queer people. In my youth, while studying creative literature, I have experimented a bit with writing poetry and fiction from the perspective of gay characters, both men and women, and while it didn't feel right for me, I was surprised how easy it had been to put myself in their shoes. And how it opened my eyes to some of their struggles. And joys. So I took that past experience, and decided to apply it to my gaming. I started playing gender neutral characters. I played some trans characters. Paradoxically, there were two situations that felt the best for me. Agender or carefree NB characters, that basically don't care at all for genders. And genderfluid or very NB characters that either let me experiment with gender stuff, or that have their NB nature being a very core facet of their characters. The formers just felt right. And the latters just felt fun. xD But I'm a French speaking person. Genders is BAKED IN the language. A hecking table has a gender for us. So going by "NB" or "agender" IRL felt like it wasn't really an option for me. And I didn't feel right to call myself queer for a long time. Until Mark Seifter, a Paizo employee at that time, used "they/them" pronoun for me on stream. I cried. It just. Felt right. I had never asked for it, but he felt it was right for me when I didn't have the courage of admiting it. This was my first big true queer joy. And yes. I fully credit Paizo games to have helped me figuring myself out. Thanks for Morlibint, Radiant Prism, Mios, Quinn, Hao Jin, Kyra and Merisiel, Irabeth and Anevia, Kalabrynne, Clarethe, Fadelby, J Dacilane, most characters in Grand Bazaar, Shardra, Zihara, Beirivelle, Sihar, and so so so so many more.
Really hoping there are actual replacements for the other colors as well. The only (evil) one we got a replacement for in Monster Core 1 was the green dragon.You are going to have a great fall! This and Draconic Codex??? So much to look forward to! Cinder (ex-red), Bog (ex-black), Rime (ex-white) have all been confirmed. Then there's also have been Mocking (ex-copper) that have been confirmed for new designs inspired by the metalics. The "ex-chromatics" have been pretty "faithful" and focusing on their physical aspects, while the ex-metalics have apparently been mostly based on their personalities, but turned to 11 (at least for Mocking). We don't know how many of these are in this, but if they are not in there, then they should be in teh Lost Omen Draconic Codex.
What Foundry version are you on?The newest version of Foundry, 13 build 344. It's not the only mod having an issue with the update so it might be a compatibility issue. Will email support for help though! The PF2 system for Foundry v13 is still in beta, as in, "Use at your own risk" state. So yeah, a lot of modules are waiting for the full system to be out to update, cause it's likely system updates could still break them if they update now.
I'll just post this out there:
I really hope we get dragonblood options for the new dragons, especially the barrage dragon. It'd be fun to make a Touhou dragongirl. Confirmed that the book will have big tables for these, like breath, and stuff for all the types of dragon. (I'm unsure if it meant "all the types in the book" or "all the types")
This is something that happened for everyone. The PDF are ok, but not prints. It looks like they tried a new font, and some of the ligatures were missing on the printer's side.Ligatures are when some letters appear differently depending on context, and it's usually done by replacing two or more characters by a single character that represent both. Like if you look at the PDF, at Hellstorm, the first "l" is a little bit smaller than the second, so "ll" was probably replaced by a ligature that the printer only saw as one "l". Same thing for the "dd", and the "Th" of "The" (but in this case, the printer didn't see it at all).
I hope this explains why none of the PCs from AoA are there and that the Citadel is abandoned again. Froom past experiences, the most I personally expect might be a mention in a timeline that "heroes" restored it, defended it, and left somewhere. *Vague hand shaking in air* All APs canon have their heroes' fate unknown, and never have them settling down locally, to not unbalance the power level of the regions. (Also, they can't predict what everyone will do, so if a GM want to integrate past PCs, they would have to make changes anyway as Paizo's assumptions would 100% of the time be somewhat wrong.)Also, this is a Society adventure, with very limited page count.
Curious question. The other creature-type themed books (i.e. Book of the Dead, Rage of Elements, Howl of the Wild) were not Lost Omens books. What was the design reason behind why the Draconic Codex is? Based on the description, there's not a lot of new creature stat blocks here, and much more lore than these other books. Most of the dragons were (or will be) released in other books (16 out of the 20).All of the ones you mentioned had no reprints and was all new content. Either this one has reprints (which happens very rarely between Lost Omen and Core, but it happened... but usually it's LO -> Core, and not Core -> LO), or iit have less "stat blocks" than the books you mentioned and much more lore... which would fit in the LO line.
When is this being updated for Foundry v13? Right now it can't even be installed on v13 :).V13 is only in beta, so not released. It's very much not recommended to update Foundry before the full release of a version. And They can't update the modules as long as the PF2 system is not updated... And it's not ready yet. Replying to myself cause outside of the edit window: I made a mistake. V13, as in the new foundry version IS released as stable. BUT the PF2 system is not, and the only release they did is an in-progress alpha. I have no idea why I wrote it so wrongly. Sorry. Hope this is more clear.So yeah. The PF2 system itself is still not fully usable, so it's too early to update the modules.
