Heh, so Mythic finally makes a grand return.

I wonder how much the Exemplar got improved since the playtest...

There was an after-playtest blog post about their plans regarding changes to Exemplar and Animist.

Happy to see Bloodrager.

Yes, it seems to be fixed now. Thx Paizo for quick resolution.

Yep, same for me :( And cannot download "file per chapter" at all.

Not in this product, I am afraid.

Using OGL for new books seems ridiculous now.

Two more days until .pdf....

More like 2 months and 2 days

Also: monsters don't need to follow PC rules. They don't have classes anymore, they are not bound to how PC class abilities work.

Nice!

Where is this creature from? Monster Core? Tian Xia book?

I don't think there are any plans to remaster classes outside of CRB and APG.

I will wait for the errata updated pdfs then. I don't find it attractive to be offered a product that is supposed to be a fix and an upgrade of an existing one, but that itself comes out with a slew of new and important errors on day one...

Then you are going to wait forever, because there is always stuff to be fixed.

Archive of Nethys is an official repository of PF2 rules. Even if GM is out of print it doesn't mean the rules no longer exist.

At a minimum Chromatic and Metallic dragons are out, as they are too tied to D&D. If memory serves, Primal and Imperial dragons are 100% Paizo inventions, not sure about the other two categories.

Most likely these will be 4 mostly new dragons. We already know a few of them: Adamantine, Diabolocal, Mirage have been shown in prior disclosures.

So there will be some completely replacements for some monsters then. Interesting.

Yes. We've known this for months. D&D (OGL) classics like Otyugh and Owlbear will be replaced with new monsters unique to Pathfinder. Doesn't mean you can't use the good old owlbear from the Beastiary 1, but it is not going to be used in the future in Paizo products.

Evil clown let's go! 10!

Sounds like amazing creature additions!

I really hope that despite getting PF2 Remastered we will still get a new class playtest this year. Please be Warlord or Inquisitor.

New store, finally. Current one is a sad view to behold, happy to see changes on the horizon.

Yeah, still waiting for wood and water.

I am pretty sure we are going to get a "Just got Rage of Elements, AMA" on reddit on day one (17th) anyways.

Reminder that the rules are free, the art and lore are not. Reddit is good about this, generally.

Sadly I am not a subscriber anymore :( And hey, I've never broken the rules in the past! Tho I did the day 1 AMA for some rulebook, don't remember which.

I am pretty sure we are going to get a "Just got Rage of Elements, AMA" on reddit on day one (17th) anyways.

It's 17th for the subscribers. It's 3rd of August for the rest of the world.

I presume you have sales numbers to back up that claim? :)

I am paraphrasing James Jacobs. He publicly stated it in these forums not very long time ago. No reason to not believe him. Also money was and is the greatest argument for most businesses anyway. Even without James' statement, one can reach a conclusion that the shift from 6 to 3 parters is just more economically viable for Paizo.

Tree is a demigod.

With deity stat block.

do we get do we a statock for the cool as hell Giant earth t rex on the cover?

As that is one of the Elemental Lords, and they don't stat "deities" anymore, I do not believe so.

Except for Treerazer in Bestiary 1.

Probably not.

I checked a bookstore site and Highhelm is listed as only 136 pages in length. I was hoping for more content and really expand on this area of the world, but it seems way too short to be an in-depth look.

136 pages about one city is too short? Interesting perspective.

I wanna know more about the Surkis!

So.

Due to divorce from OGL, what becomes of Abjuration, Conjuration, Divination, Enchantment, Evocation, Illusion, Necromancy, and Transmutation?

They are gone.

You can still use geniekin from books it was released in. I am also afraid the scope of the new core books is already decided.

I like the cloak a lot.

Very good, but I keep waiting for drow, not cave elves...

One of Paizocon's panels is called something like "Into the Darklands" so that might bring some hope to you.

How many pages is this?

What were the threads about? What happened there?

Sounds nice!

(...) a new player who wants to have the bare minimum needed to play the game (...)

I don't get these takes, like totally. A new player who want to have a bare minimum needed to play the game can get all of the game for free online, legally. And if a new player wants to have a bare minimum needed to play the game in physical form, they can get the Beginner's Box and doesn't need to buy any number of thick rulebooks.

Worth mentioning is also that while there is a slight price increase of the 4 combined books, it is nowhere near how much stuff is now more expensive than it was 3-4 years ago. Paizo could have easily justified doing 80$ per book, yet they elected to sell them rather cheap, considering how massive the books are and how they are probably selling them close to the production cost. Like, this is the opposite of greed.

For those also wondering, yes, that's Runelord Xanderghul on the mirage dragon for the GM Core. We've put a runelord and their dragon buddy on the previous two GM books, after all.

What are you guys going to do for the GM books of Pathfinder 7th and later edition?

Obviously there are going to be new Runelords!

Frost and fire giants are part of nordic mythology. Good luck forcing Paizo to remove them.

Aye, Beastcore sounds great

What's Ardande and Talos's prual when there are multiple of them?

My guess for plurals is Ardandes and Tali (based on one colossus -> two colossi).

Creature Codex is already a line of products from Kobold Press for 5e.

Wherever they put it I pray to Torag that they will fix crafting.

Wouldn't count on it, sadly.

It will be weird to have Player Core 3 with Inventor and Gunslinger (and other classes), but likely very little space to put all the guns n' gears stuff in it.

Nice. And all of this because of WotC greed and their OGL schemes.

Maybe Kineticist's elemental actions will also get cards.

Waiting for someone to spoil what's in the adventure toolbox!

Also worth noting, in 2E many demigods, godlings,etc. have gotten a soft retcon establishing them as full gods, just with a smaller influence on Golarion.

I wouldn't go that far, spoiler for kingmaker:** spoiler omitted **

Maybe in the future we get the 2e version of mythic adventures and we can fight them, something not possible with full gods in 1e.

Brinebeast wrote:

Demigods seem to largely be limited to entities like emperyal lords, archdevils, etc. The 5 domains vs. 4 domains does not appear to define full god vs. demigod status.

As I said in a previous comment, yes, there was a soft retcon but for now it's mostly about the number of domains of a deity. Right now most deities are presented ambiguously, not stating in which category they fall under.

Hmm, I can see that Avatar of Latern King in PF2 Kingmaker is lvl 24. Where is the lvl 29 coming from?

Nice cover

Is there a way for a character to use the mythic form of a SLA?

I was just curious to know if maximized spellstrike increases the casting level of the spell, because the feat says that it is "as if using the Maximize Spell metamagic feat."
