I am not going to say that a human reaction to unexpected situations is wrong what matters is of course what happened going forward from that point. Personally I tend to have that sign when people show up with elves assist and tieflings, have since banned them as playable due to the attitudes they encourage plus elves are the armies of evil in my campaign anyway.


I'm not really a fan of the coven concept replacing cackle to be honest. I think if there is such a problem with cackle (even though I like the idea just for the fun of a mockingly laughing spellcaster) then it should be replaced by another solo based ability. The coven spell casting functionality should in my opinion be used to allow a witch to more easily cut down ritual time as they could be naturally better at rituals than others.


Yeah. They close out the surveys on dec 2. You can keep using the stuff but official feedback surveys will be closed.

Part of the problem seems to be that people are confusing a pathfinder witch with a Wiccan witch. Sure they have the same name but unless something has changed in the past five years the Wiccan witch is really a priest with a different named attached to it at least from the reading I had done. The other part of the problem seems to be the preconception of deals with the devil and such which actually might be part of the class, however that also leads back towards a more religious view instead of a learning to harness and control power theme that most ttrpg spellcasters tend to have.

I feel pretty much the same, however at this point I can work with what they have if it doesn’t happen. I still think it would be nice to get a weapon in place of a familiar but I have really been reading the Elric books and may just be hung up on Stormbringer.


I think that number two would strike a good balance as well, with one maybe as a side bar, three could come out with the list omens books or other supplemental guides even perhaps in an adventure path to best describe how these Patrons fit into the world.


I just hope that if Paizo does not lock every Witch into a cauldron coven type. I can not really imagine a cauldron and coven bound Witch actually going out on an adventure. Mostly to my mind, I suppose that the Witch you hope for seems to be more of a static box than a stand out member of a party.

Really I just want to make sure that the Witch Patron dynamic really does not end up mimicking the cleric diety one. There are already too many sell your soul preconceptions about any class like this, and frankly in my opinion that is more in the realm of champions and clerics. I think that the playtest version just from a dead does manage to swell a mysterious patron rather decently. I mean it could be used to very much set up a Great Expectations sort of scenario where the Patron is thought to be Oz the great and powerful and instead turns out to be the Wicked Witch of the West.

The way I tend to read it is as a patron more as an otherworldly teacher as opposed to a source of power unlike a diety which provides power at a cost to the user.

Personally my only thing so far is that I was hoping for a weapon familiar, that would act along the lines of a black blade for a witch path but the rest seems to be alright.


I was thinking about what to run for my son who is currently two on his fourth or fifth birthday just for fun.I hadn’t thought about pre published stuff but I do have a few years for planning. Instead I was working on a fun little adventure based on a couple nursery rhymes, little bunny foo foo and maybe hickory dickory dock. Basically making a pre gen mouse type character and letting him run through a relatively bloodless game. Could put in some combat to delay the vile bunny until he gets gooned though.


Well since they are prone to mutations he could have the hair thing happen. His mutation just happens to be hair, I was going to personally give my goblin sorcerer a shock of hair at the top of his head though was also going to have one green eye and one red so take that as you would.


For me more goblin weapons would be most interesting. Have been working on a few goblin variations of normal weapons just to give them a little more flexibility in the racial weapon catagory.

Okay from what I can make out, it looks like a sentinel type of alchemist archetype though since I am merely guessing based on a few root words i am probably wrong.
