Rage of Elements, page 45, has the background Planar Migrant, which by all appearances is just a normal background, giving two boosts, a skill, a lore skill, and a skill feat... except it also gives a free level 3 general feat on top all that, which it erroneously refers to as a skill feat, thus making it simply stronger than any other background for no reason. This can't be intentional, can it?
I'm so glad there's the Draconic Diehard class archetype. I wonder if I'll ever play a normal class again... I'm so glad I pushed so hard for it to be made during the playtest. The process of testing and even designing for this project was some of the best fun I've ever had.
This is a pretty major one. Page 19, under Conservation of Energy, the text reads "Once you add energy, you must remove energy the next time you cast one of these spells." The feature includes no such wording for the opposite direction, so as written, you can remove energy as much as you want back to back, but you can add energy no more than once before you must remove energy again. This is fixed by simply adding "and vice versa." To add onto this, the wording of the feature never states that you can choose when to add or remove energy at any point beyond the first time you cast during the encounter (with the intent obviously being that it alternates constantly so you never choose beyond the first time), but because of the problem I stated above, after those first 1 or 2 spells, you no longer are bound by this cycle according to a RAW reading. Once you add energy, you must remove it next time, but the text doesn't say you must add after removing, so after removing energy, you are free to cast normally, apparently. Unless this is the intention, and I really hope that it's not, this wording should be fixed.
Since Conservation of Energy reads like it's mandatory ("...decide whether you're adding energy or removing it."), I'm of a mind that Redistribute Potential makes both area hot, or both areas cold, thus destroying any flavor the cantrip has. The same problem is shared with Thermal Stasis, which obviously is not the intent of either spell.

I was reading around and noticed that on page 79, Read Psychometric Resonance deals 1d6 psychic damage, which should say mental damage. Also, the next feat, Skeptic's Defense, can make a creature stupefied for 1 round. This should include a value, i.e., stupefied 1 for 1 round.
Too late, Sean already has. Sean? Who's Sean?
Monday is a mail holiday. I sincerely doubt that, if I haven’t even been billed, they will manage to pack my books Tuesday, and have them to me by Wednesday. I’m not asking for my books before the street date, but why would I pay them to get my books after the date I can buy them in a shop? This is exactly what I'm feeling right now. I'm merely asking that I, a subscriber, don't have to wait longer than a non-subscriber to get my books. Why would I subscribe and pledge my money to Paizo if it takes them longer to get me my books than it does for all of my friends to just wait until the street date and pick up their books at our local game store?
I saw that the estimate for Pathfinder Rulebook subscribers to have their orders shipped was between 9/27 and 10/8. It is now 10/8, and I don't yet have the PDF. I was just wondering if I should be worrying at all. I know that shipping isn't great right now, but I'm just curious about when I can expect to get that.
I want to start a Pathfinder Second Edition Rulebook subscription, but the only options are still Bestiary 3 and Secrets of Magic. I already own every 2nd edition rulebook up to now, so I'm wondering when I can choose Guns and Gears to be my first book with the subscription so I can just start my subscription. |
