Not sure if I agree. I feel like the reason feats are class locked is to get people to play a multitude of classes. If combat feats become a pool what's the use of a fighter; if I can build a barbarian or whatever that's 100% better because it has better class feats and the option of combat feats. I just feel like it might make the fighter obsolete if we give out his feats to every other class.

Hiya, I'd like to bring some of my PFS characters over to palybypost. If anyone has any openings please let me know.

3 and 4 are okay.
I would like the race boons people volunteered for, especially ones from gencon and paizocon, to be transfered over.

PFS1 will not "end" at the end of season 10. They will stop producing scenarios for it. But you will still have well over 400xp worth of playing opportunities with PFS1 that will still be available for the "indefinite future" (quote per Tonya in the PFS2 FAQ).

That's really just not true. Currently there are 251 scenarios and 35 playable modules.

251 scenarios = 251 xp
roughly 30-40 scenarios in season 10 = 35 xp
about 70 of them go up to 11, including specials that are very hard to play.
That may seem like alot but it's not actually.
those 70 games have to be shared across someone's entire character list from levels 8/9-11. That's 4 levels at 3 xp each which is already 12 scenarios.
Which means a player (at this moment (mid to end of season 9)) can only get 5 characters to retirement. (through scenarios only) and that is just for people who haven't played any 7-11 or 9-11s yet.
So for people with race boons that they haven't even touched yet, this may seem like a hard feet to accomplish.
Your right, PFS isn't dead but if our characters never develop into their full grown potentials it might as well be for them. It sucks when a character dies in a campaign, or for a campaign to be called off for any reason when a character is mid way through it's development. This is that for me and other people but 4 to 10 times worse.
I didn't include modules because modules are a whole different beast. They are longer and yes you get more xp for them but even then there are on 35 modules (don't know if they're all sanctioned) which equal out to be 140 xp. Yes you do get more xp for playing one book over 1 scenario and that's great. But, all it does is level up your characters at a faster rate to sit and wait for a scenario to come around and push them to retirement. which means using one of those 7-11 games. I've already got people saying they're just going to quit or wait for 2.0 to release. It's just a really defeated feeling.

I would like to see at least the race boons carry over. Most people do put forth a good amount of time and effort to acquire them and it be a shame to not get to use them.

I agree, I'm all for level playing fields, but maybe we could implement the race boons at a later time?

There are just several people who have dedicated SEVERAL hours to this organization and the boons they received were there thanks. I just feel like it's kind of a slap in the face to say, "Thank you very much for the last 5 years, but we're starting over from scratch so it doesn't matter how much work you put in everyone's on the same playing field now."
I get it, they want to get new people interesting in the game and that's great. But, I feel like pathfinder will lose many veterans in the process.

It was to push people to GM, in my area at least, it was hard to find GMs for a while.

I still think the idea of all those race boons going to waste is a bit sad.
I've had ideas for multiple characters, just not the time to play them all.
Now I won't have scenarios for them to play in. Either way it's disappointing.

Question regarding charity auction race boons:
For those of us that have 1 of a kind race boons could those transfer? I'm not speaking for everyone but I know some people have held onto their specialty race boons. I mean donating 200-700 for a character to play over a long period of time then saying it is only viable for the next two years is a little harsh.
I mean at least with usual race boons there's a chance to re-earn them but for things like the wyvern, goblin, android, ect the people that donated to have them essentially paid for a piece of paper that is going to collect dust after 2020.
I don't know it just makes me sad.

Heya, I made this chart cuz I've been really into making charts lately. Hope someone finds it helpful.
It has DayJob, Scroll Cost, Spell Casting Services, Prestige vs. Item Cost, and other stuff.

Yes I realize. I've built a very strange rogue/monk build.

Tengu Swordmaster/Scout/Counterfeit Mage Sohei/Monk of Many Styles

The tengu can take a turn to start a tiger stance, then on the next turn get a full pounce attack with two weapons and beak, double no lethal included. It's very gimmicky but very fun to play.
