![]() Ok, something weird happen. This morning I submitted an order to send my friend a gift of the Blue Skittermander Plushie/Dice Bag, Blue Skitermander Pin and the Rise of the Runelord Dice. Then on the way home that order somehow turned into my subscription order, absorbed the plushie and pin into it while sending the dice to my sidecart? Can we get this fixed before stuff shipped and make sure the right items get to the right place please? ![]()

![]() To those it may concern; Shardfinder (Eberron -> PF2) will be seeing a series of bestiary updates over the next few weeks. Over my Xmas holiday I hope to transfer more content to The World Anvil Page and refine the Warforged ancestry for a January release. Additionally I will have a bit of focus on revisiting some past material and getting a PF2 artificer class, at least semi playable? By July. You may reply to this message. ![]()

![]() Well I think practicality is a factor here. You can drag that massive magical weapon to town and try to sell it but who is it going to be sold back to for profit? Most likely no one that would frequent that place. Magic or not they better off smelting it down and selling it into many smaller weapons that the community would actually use. ![]()

![]() Most tanks will take Con instead of Dex, Dex does add into most armor but yes not all and limiting. Light armor doesn't get any Group benefits, very limited material options and I think there more proficiency increasing benefits for med/heavy armors then there are for light between all the classes. ![]()

![]() In a Discord chat it was pointed out to me that Drow Rogue as the same feat but it worded very different. It triggers on a hit and allows the NPC to raise their AC (as a reaction) to make the hit either not a hit or not a critical hit retroactively. This gives me a hint at intent I think and I am also not going to let an NPC version of an ability be better then a PC one so at this moment I am going to be letting my player know what the attack is so they can decide as needed unless someone shows me some clear and cut rule some where that I shouldn't.

![]() I've been contemplating a new character - a Kitsune Samurai, to be specific, and since Kitsune take a Strength penalty, I'm considering taking Weapon Finesse, which I've just discovered to my momentary horror SEVERELY penalizes shield-use. Bah! Fine! Samurai shouldn't be using shields anyway, I suppose. However, I don't want to bother with two-weapon fighting either for this character. Fighting einhander with a wakizashi is easy enough, BUT I'm wondering what other uses I could put such a character's off-hand to; if there's a two-handed weapon that can be Finessed, I could go with that, too - the spiked chain is what's specified, but that thing requires Exotic Proficiency, AND needs more feats to really be worth it! I'm hoping not to have to spend too many feat slots to do whatever, as I have other things in mind on that front (I intend to make good use of Kitsune Charisma!). ![]()
![]() Behold The True Silvered Throne: Quote: Wandering Ritual (Su): At 6th level, a true silvered throne can attempt to coax a nearby spirit into service with a 1-minute-long ritual once per day, gaining that spirit’s spirit ability and adding its list of spells to those he can cast using his spirit magic. The silvered throne can maintain this bond for 1 hour, or until he dismisses the spirit as a free action... He can perform a wandering ritual one additional time per day at 8th level and 14th level. This ability replaces wandering spirit and wandering hex. Now compare it to said standard abilities: Quote:
Now, the Wandering Ritual does offer a little more flexibility, but its cost seems imbalanced for what you get; am I missing something? What does it gain other than a comparatively fleeting amount of flexibility within the span of a single day (especially since the Throne seems to lose Wandering Hex with NO replacement)? I'm wondering if this is one of those things that's somehow more powerful than it looks because I'm not clear on the rules/limitations for the normal class abilities. ![]()

![]() The Reanimator could've been written better, and is underpowered as is; I accept that much - HOWEVER, something very weird is going on at high-levels, and I hope there's at least been some errata somewhere along the way: The Reanimator wrote:
Now let's take a lookee at create greater undead; it can create... ...shadows, wraiths, specters, and devourerers. See the problem? Only ONE of these is corporeal, and that only at CL 20th! Like I said, I'm REALLY hoping there was some errata; whoever designed it did not seem to have thought it through. For what it's worth, I actually presented my own hypothetical means of fixing it years ago here. ![]()
![]() For instance, if somone's a multiclass Cleric / Hex Channeler Witch, do the dice stack? What about the uses per diem? Sneak Attack dice stack, so that would be pretty analogous, but the rules I see appear silent. ![]()
![]() Way back when DRAGON Magazine was still a print publication, one of the "Ask The Sage" articles (whose answers were considered official!) included a remarkable question about Planetouched: Do Planetouched races, as [Native] Outsiders, enjoy full proficiency with simple and martial weapons? "The Sage"'s answer was the simplest I'd ever seen him give:
Considering they're often weaker than Core races by the standard of the Race-Point system, that might not be as overpowered as it may sound to some (and don't get me started on Tengu getting easier access to Elven Curve-Blades than actual Elves do! :P). Admittedly, the above citation was in the context of D&D 3.5, BUT it was a Paizo publication, and most importantly, the Pathfinder rules on this matter remain an extension of 3.5. Note also the exception to resurrection rules that would make it clear this entry is meant to apply to [Native] Outsiders. It has been argued since that the Ganzi's "Weaponplay" alternate feature is an exception that would prove the rule to the contrary, BUT I find it easy to believe that might have simply been an oversight on the part of a writer who was unfamiliar with/had forgotten this seldom-discussed, but in the absence of anything to trump it, canon detail. Note, furthermore, that the book the above feature was in was one of the later publications (meaning a higher chance the writer was someone with less experience, I forget whom it was), and that feature goes beyond mere proficiency anyway (and in a major way worth the price of admission on its own, so maybe the mentioning proficiency was just to be thorough!). ![]()
![]() My Chaokineticist recently reached 6th level, which would mean she would gain the first feature of the Elemental Purist kit I had intended her to take. HOWEVER, before I commit to it I need to know one thing: Elemental Purist wrote:

Would an Elemental Purist lose these bonuses, or would she gain them as well as normal for fidelity to a single element? Elemental Impossibility suddenly seems a tad underwhelming, if not. ![]()
![]() The Archives of Nethys used to say the Sensate Fighter lost Weapon Training 2, 3, and 4 - now it says it loses all of them. The d20PFSRD says likewise.
That must mean either there's been errata, OR those two sites got careless about checking what it actually said (maybe one copied off the other *wags finger*); either seems plausible. Any idea which? ![]()
![]() In honor of the new year (and my having almost finished the latter series!), this is another "back and forth" type of game: Each poster addresses the next one as the friendly Sgt. Cosgrove of Freakazoid! fame, extending an invitation to go do something mildly weird - but, rather than the ever-enthusiastic Freakazoid, we each reply to "Cosgrove" in the voice of ever-sarcastic Edmund Blackadder (AKA 'Samsara's Chewtoy'!) who always expresses his disdain for the idea by saying he'd supposedly prefer to do something else, something bizarre AND horrible!!! The contents of offer and reply need not have anything to do with each other (but if you can think of a thematic link, more power to you!).
Poster 2: "I'd rather be fellated by a swingline stapler! Armin Shimerman's in town, wanna go criticize him?" Poster 3: "I'd rather operate a halfway-home for flakka-addicted zebra-mussels out of my pantaloons...!" And so on.... Now, TO BEGIN!: Hey, let's go watch the mummies dance! ![]()
![]() In honor of the legendary BURMA-SHAVE ads, the rules for this game are as follows: Each 'ad' will consist of 5 lines, each (at least ideally) made by a different poster; each poster rolls (Yes, this is an actual freaking die-rolling game!) 1d4 per post, and the result is how many words can and must be in its line. The final poster of course tacks on the obligatory "BURMA-SHAVE" (which does NOT count for/against poster #5's rolled word-quota!), then the next 5 posters compose the next. Lather, rinse, repeat. EXAMPLE OF PLAY: Poster 1: 1d4 ⇒ 2
Poster 2: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Poster 3: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Poster 4: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Poster 5: 1d4 ⇒ 4

![]() Years ago now, I became genuine friends (very rare for me) with a poster who, for whatever reason, is no longer with us: DM Under The Bridge. I would, really, really like to reconnect with him, an I am reasonably certain he would be happy to hear from me again. Unfortunately, I am an American, and I never knew enough about him to be able to find him outside this site, which it appears he has not come to since 2015. Is there ANY chance anyone in the Melbourne area knows him, and/or could help me find him? I don't even know his real name (I know his profession and home city, but we all knows how or why either of those might've changed since 2015?). ![]()
![]() What it says in the headline should suffice, I suppose; I don't want to air any dirty laundry in public (and shame on both all who do so, and on all who actively enable it - but that itself is a complaint far beyond the scope of this post, or indeed this website). Apologies if this has been asked and/or answered before; if not, it seems like a good candidate for a Sticky/FAQ. ![]()
![]() Okay, it's stupid, but at least it's NEW!: This is just a game where we come up with 1001+ variants of the good old "not the [X]-est [Y] in/on/etc the [Z], are you?" genre of litotical insults. SO. Without further ado: Not the sharpest sword in the stone, are you? Not the wiliest coyote on the ACME mailing list, are we? Not the stickiest remora under the shark, are ya'? Not the smelliest cheese in all of France, n'est-ce pas? Not the most hand-sanitizing perfume in Arabia, art thou? Not the perkiest pair of tits in the ol' porno, now are you?

![]() There's lots of good stuff in there that offers no reason not to be Society-legal (for example, I have a character for whom the Esoteric Knight prestige class would be ideal), and if the answer is 'never' just because it's 1st Edition, then that's really unfair for those of us who still play 1st Edition Pathfinder Society. ![]()

![]() When somebody on here turns off their receptivity to PMs, does that mean they also forfeit the ability to send PMs, or can they still do so? I'm asking because I hope it's the former; if it's the latter, then that must be fixed. It's potentially a blank check for people to harass others with impunity, or to preserve their own freedom of speech yet deny others theirs. I can even think of a few people on this site (won't name names, of course) I worry might not be above such dirty pool. ![]()
![]() Most of the posts I've made on here for the past few months (at least) have managed to 'stick' about as well as a Post-It Note if I'd just used it to pet my Ragdoll cat during shedding season. It seems to be getting worse, too; it's not exaggerating to say I have to screw with it 2d4 times before I see it show up properly. Even posting this itself took two tries. I've been on this website for about 8 years, and for this and a number of other reasons I and/or others have reported previously and not yet seen improvement on, I have to say that I am no longer at all satisfied with the maintenance of this site. ![]()
![]() How does one combine games downloaded from GOG.com that are treated as separate games when downloaded, but are actually just expansions of the same game that would all be combined into one if only you could still friggin' buy them as CDs from stores?!!? My Pertinent Example: I have Disciples II: Servants of the Dark/Guardians of the Light, and Disciples II: Rise of the Elves, but despite their all being expansions to the same game, they're treated as wholly separate games - so I can't access all the new Quests in the latter when I'm trying to play the former. How do I put them all into one program? ![]()
![]() How well would the animate rope spell jive with a snag net? Could the spell be used to wield it effectively, even without proficiency or a good CMB? What if a character DID have Exotic Weapon Proficiency in the snag net (but still a poor CMB)? Failing that, what other ways are there to telekinetically wield a snag net (particularly with a mind toward characters who otherwise aren't good with weapons or combat maneuvers)? ![]()
![]() PARTICULARLY those that others wouldn't likely ever see otherwise, such those as you made for your characters in single-player games, or for your characters in MMOs that disdainfully kicked the all-important "RPG" part to the curb or otherwise went down the toilet sometime after 2006! Please use the "i" and "bigger" tags to clearly indicate which game these are from, and "b" to distinguish character name and other basic details from the backstory.

![]() I'm pretty positive *I* didn't erase it, even accidentally - the erasure's too thorough, and wouldn't have cleaned out EVERYTHING the way it has. Rather, I suspect this has something to do with the godsawful glitches that have been saddling this site for months, screwing up and even 'disappearing' (though it had always been temporary up until now) new posts and edits (hell, it blanked out this very post the first time I submitted it). The last thing I did with this character's profile was a very minor edit for purposes of tracking spent abilities in its current adventure - but THIS should not have happened. Tonya Woldridge once told me before, under different circumstances, that nothing on this site ever *really* ceases to be - I rather hope that's the case this time around. ![]()

![]() At what point do psychic powers require money be spent on material components? Is it like Eschew Materials, where anything costing 1 gp or less is unnecessary, OR do things like fiery shuriken (requires a shuriken costing 2 sp) or grasping corpse (requires 1 gp, but no more, worth of onyx) still demand that such materials (or whatever their psychic-suitable analogues would be) be provided? ![]()
![]() I forget what exactly it was I saw recently that raised me this qualm, but it has come to my attention that 0-level spells may, in fact, NOT count when considering the effect of Class Archetypes (the Kensei Magus being the example most pertinent to me) that skim off spell slots - ergo a 2nd-level Kensei would only have 1 + high-INT-bonus 1st-level spell/day, but would still have its normal full complement for that level of 4 Cantrips. Is this the case, or have I been doing it correctly by shaving off a Cantrip slot as well? ![]()
![]() Dead Mods: If this is not actually the best forum for this issue, I welcome having it moved there. I happen to know that I am not the only one who would like an option for privileging some "Favorited" posts above others: 'Favorite+', 'Über-Favorite', 'Favorite Amongst Favorites', 'Arch-Deluxe', call it what you will. I've also seen some people Favorite things just to signify approval or "megadittoes", as the case may be. I think it would be good to have a different thing for this, too, as well as perhaps one for when we favorite things just to keep track of them. ![]()
![]() The following is for a prospective Pathfinder Society character. If I'd have been better off submitting this to one of the Organized Play Forums, I welcome a moderator to do so: I have mixed feelings about the Shifter. Perhaps I've simply failed to wrap my head around it (but it's incredibly rare that I can't). One thing I DO know is that, were I to play a Shifter, no doubt I'd want to be an Oozemorph...but how do I do it? I don't entirely understand how it's supposed to work, and frankly, it looks even more underwhelming than the base Shifter. I'm hoping against hope that I'm missing or failing to understand something. Hold the "cheese," please - and if I decline any given advice, respect my prerogative to do so. ![]()
![]() Does a natural slam attack count as equivalent to Improved Unarmed Strike with regard to qualifying for other feats? Does anything? For context's sake, I was thinking that if it did, the Nightmare Fist feat might be great for my Shadow Caller Spiritualist's Shade down the line. ![]()
![]() To what extent does an 8th+-level Cavalier of the Order of the Tome's "virtual" caster level count as having an actual caster level for purposes of things that effect and/or depend on a character having a CL? For instance, could a single-class Cavalier of the Tome with no spell-like abilities from elsewhere take the Allied Spellcaster Teamwork feat? ![]()
![]() Ever since the website revamp, the "bigger" function no longer seems to work like it used to - in fact, it looks to me like it makes things smaller now, if anything. The next sentence should look bigger.
For good measure: The next sentence should look smaller.
Okay...it seems like they both do the exact same thing now. What gives? Also: If fixing this requires making up new tags, allow me to be the first to lobby for replacing "[smaller]" with "[drinkme]" and "[bigger]" with "[eatme]". ![]()
![]() Everyone from Martin Luther King and Walt Disney to John Lennon and H. P. Lovecraft have expounded on the power and importance of dreams. Many people the world over presently feel like we live in a world of lost and broken dreams. It seems like the whole world's becoming increasingly mean, selfish, frightened, needy, angry, cruel, stupid, unhappy, and unimaginative, and the plague just seems to be spreading. What if the problem really is within us? For many years now, I've had barely any... ...and indeed, my life, my mind, and everything about me have been steadily deteriorating. Can anyone else attest to similar? If so, for how long, and can you think of what else might have changed, either as cause or symptom? Likewise, if anyone has experienced this and managed to recover, HOW??? If "dream loss" is really a contemporary epidemic somehow, it might explain SO MUCH. ![]()
![]() My Alchemist has been sporting a non-magical doctor's mask (originally from Adventurer's Armory, I believe) for a very long time; but have the mechanics for it been changed somewhere along the way, or what? My understanding (and how I've been applying it) has been that it grants a +2 bonus to saving throws vs inhaled poisons and stench effects...but I can't seem to find anything that corroborates that (and I'd have to do some digging to relocate my copy of Adventurer's Armory). What is the quantity of the bonus supposed to be, and what should it apply against? ![]()
![]() If this is not the best forum for this, feel free to move this or flag to have it moved. I've long felt that Pathfinder was terribly biased against the undead and half-dead, and in few places is that more blatant than in the Bard/Skald spell list and the Alchemist/Investigator formula list, both/all of which feature cure wounds, but not inflict wounds. This is a bummer in particular for one of my characters, a Dhampir Skald (not that he would describe himself as a 'Skald', but that's neither here nor there). Spell Kennings and their heavy limitations notwithstanding, is there any Society-legal way some or all of the inflict wounds spells can find their way onto the Bard/Skald spell list? ![]()

![]() "RULE 0" FOR THIS THREAD: No wish/miracle, shadow Conjuration/Evocation/etc, or dominate/geas/possession sorts of spells, that all's too easy. 1. Repeatedly cast meteor swarm on empty, barren stretch of land that you own in the hopes that some leave behind valuable minerals. 2. Take two rock lobsters, cast stone to flesh on one and flesh to stone on the other, see which works out better. 3. Cast a contingency spell set to release a stinking cloud in the event somebody pulls your finger. 4. Cast iron body, sacrifice yourself to save a brood of starving rust monsters. 5. Visit a party or a carnival, cast maze on paying customers. STEP RIGHT UP, STEP RIGHT UP! DON'T BE SHY!!! 6. Cast power word, stun on someone who was just about to deliver an important expository monologue. 7. Cast telekinetic sphere in some large, colorful city, invent and play "urban pinball". 8. Cast bilocation when you can't decide which of two wonderful restaurants to go to this evening, so you can go to both at once. 9. Cast time stop just to take a candy bar break. 10. Cast magnetic field to cause hijinx at the bank you work at after-hours. 11. Cast as large a wall of force as you can manage in a totally pointless, middle-of-nowhere location, followed by permanency. 12. Go to an inn with an exceptionally wide range in room quality, rent the cheapest, cast dimension door to spend the night in the most lavish (unoccupied) suite instead, then again to return to the cheap room so you emerge from it in the morning. Repeat daily for as long as you stay there.
