At level 5 you get to add abilities to your sword. Like Ice, flame, speed, vorpal...

If I am at level 6 and I have a +1 magic sword could I vorpal by paying the 5 points from my pool, or do I have to wait until I could put a +5 enchantment on my sword (level 17)?

There was a discussion about that last gaming session.

Thanks.

This Friday I will be playing my 2nd magus and its going to be a kensai. (the first was a straight up magus) I am starting at level 6 and I am going dex based fighting.

What I was wondering if anyone can tell me what I should except or any pitfall to look out for.

I think the Magus has become my new favorite class.

I am creating my 2nd ever Magus. The first died at level 5 due to having his brain eaten by a int devourer. I went with straight up dex based magus. This time I want to try the Kensai.

I think I am going with Dex based dervish dancing. (we cant use material from ACG, none of us has that book) and I get to start at lvl 6.

Any sort of general knowledge you can add? I was thinking about a str based magus but I am sort of unsure how to build it. Seems like all the guides are for dex based one.

Thanks for the help. and thank FrodoOf9Fingers for the guide that I am using :)

Happy PI to you all.

I am about to play a void wizard, because I have never played one before, and I was wondering if anyone had any sort general advice about the power of the void?

Also, I would like to take a Prestige Class for my Wizard of the Void. Since I normally don't use them I am unfamiliar with the ones that would be "good" or "bad" I will be goodish so nothing evil.

I was thinking based on just looking at them the PrC that give you access to spell on other classes lists. Any help would be nice.

Thanks

and may the PI be with you.

You are the DM and have a group of people Pathfinder and you have to hand out the XP. Does it matter if its an AP or home brew?

If people show up (no matter what they do or don't do) they get equal share of the xp?

Do you reward people for whatever?

Should XP be "fair"?

Playing a very young dwarf magus in an all dwarf underground game. He suffered his first major loss in battle to a drow. (he didn't die but was reduce to under 0 and had to roll to stabilize)

I was thinking that the direction he would go after this would be to train harder and push himself to be a better sword fighter so he wouldn't lose again. Sort like the characters do in all the fighting anime.

What I am asking is how to bring this up to the DM and what sort of in game mechanic would this entail. Would he level up faster? (we are using the medium track so would he go to the fast?)

OR

Like just extra experience in general?

OR

...

Any ideas at all? What would you say as DM??

I just got to level 5 as a Magus. This is the first time I have played one so I went with just straight class (no archetypes) as a dex based dervish dancing.

What I am wondering though is what two feats I should take for level 5. I was thinking of taking toughness and weapon focus (scimitar).

At level 7 I was planing on the Metamagic feat intensify for shocking grasp.

What feats should I take for my lvl 5 magus?

Thanks

Greetings all:

I am using the UC guide for kingdom building and now we find ourselves in need of an army. However I couldn't find how much it cost to build one from the start. I get the idea of how to determine the coast per week in BP points but I can not find how much it cost to build.

A little help please?

Thank you.

I am at 3rd level with him. 18 Dex. Its my first Magus so I have been going straight class (no arechtypes or dips) I was wondering though what should my AC be? Right now I have an 18 right now. We don't have any magic armor yet. I have a chain shirt. I took the Shield Arcana as my 3rd level.

is 18 good? How can I get it better?

Thanks.

PS The people who wrote the Magus Guides... Thank you very much I have been using A LOT!

I am at 3rd level (Magus) in a all dwarf game. I am going Dex based fighter. (There is trait that gives me dex and int but minus cha) since this is the first time I am playing a Magus I went with straight levels. I did think about Kensi but I view him as more magical than fighting. Though I have been using the guides for the Magus class.

Since I view him as more magical than fighting I was thinking about maybe doing a level or two in either alchemist or wizard.

Would that be a good idea or a waste of time?

Thanks

We are using the Kingdom building rules for a campaign. Also, I wanted to run a business using the rules from the downtime section of the book.

What experience have people have using this book? I'm playing a Magus this time around. What are some fun stuff to do with this book?

Thanks,

I've often thought about playing a Witch and going for the full Winter Witch experience. (archetype and prestige class)

My question is: Have you done that and what was your experience like?

Hello all;

In two I am starting a new campaign. I will be playing a magus (for the first time ever) I'm pretty sure I will be doing the Dex based route (because I like dex based fighters).

What I am wondering though should I do straight Magus or should I tack on the Kensai Archetype? I am not sure if I do it having never played a Magus before.

So I am asking is it worth taking or should I stick with a straight Magus?

Thanks.

I was wondering if anyone had tried them and what you thought about them. I am thinking about a couple of them but I am on the fence about it.

I'll be playing a Magus soon and had a couple of questions. Are there any prestige classes for them?

Also, I plan on doing the Kensai Magus I'm pretty sure I will be doing the Scimitar route BUT is it the Aloran dueling sword worth looking into?

This is the first time I will be playing a Magus. I usually do Wizards so I hope it wont be too different.

Any advice for a first time Magus would be nice as well.

Thanks

So I have come across this a few times in random threads. What I have been wondering is how would this work? I think from what I have read it seems interesting but I would like to know me.

Thanks

Has anyone tried to make muticlass wizard alchemist? It sounds interesting to me but I am wondering if anyone has tried it and what the results where.

Thanks

You are going to play a wizard. Let us say for the purpose of this case you are going straight wizard. Would you take a Prestige class? Also which one?

Asking for me, because I am not sure about prestige classes.

I'm looking to play a Wizard that is a blaster. A super blaster, A super mega huge blaster.

Starting at level 1 I have a point buy so assume an 18 for int. How would go about making a super blaster.

Thanks

I'm thinking about playing the monk with that archetype. It seems pretty based on what I have read. Has anyone played it and how did it work out?

Thanks

I'm thinking about doing an all Arcane only campaign. (wizard, sorc, magus) You could multi-class but your arcane level has to be at least one higher. ie.. Fighter 2 Wizard 3 or cleric 1 wizard 2. Unless its a prestige class that is arcane based then that becomes your "wizard" level.

I'm wondering thought if anyone has done something like this before? Did it go well/bad stuff like that.

Thanks.

Why would you chose the INT feats for the fighter chain? The combat expertise and all the related feats? Are they good for ftr is?

I mostly play Wizards so I am not up what fighters can do.

I would like to create a Sandbox style campaign however I am unsure of how to go about it.

How do you make an open world yet still have adventures. I want something more than posting the adventure on a board trope. Which is what I sort of keep coming back to (cause I can't think of anything else)

Thanks.

I am thinking of playing a wizard who is great counter speller. What feats and school should I be taking to maximize this idea?

Thanks

I've often thought about this. I understand from a mechanical game that you have to balance all the classes.

However, it running through my mind. In a world were there are wizard that can create spells and explore magic why are there no spells for healing. (in general, the other classes spell lists)

To me if I was a wizard I would so spend the time to create arcane version of cleric and druid spells. Just to see their faces when you heal yourself or the cleric after he/she has been KO'ed.

Since it is an evil game, what kind of evil wizard would you make for this? Assuming an alignment of Lawful Evil.

I like Wizards but lately been getting a little frustrated by them. So I am looking for advice on how to build a fun LE wizard to play.

Thanks.

Last week we had a TPK so the DM is letting us all make new characters at 14 level. We are all Lawful Evil or close to it. The problem I am having is what to play.

I think we will have plenty of fighters so I am not looking for that and my last one was a wizard. TBH I am a little tired of playing a wizard.

So I am asking for help from the giant brain here at Pathfinder.

I need a level 14 LE non fighter/non wizard character.

Thanks.
