I should add that if I wound up GMing I'd pick up Rise of the Runelords, that's the one I keep hearing about, and it looks rad.


Brand new to the game, the only TRPG gaming I’ve done in the last 25 years has been some 5e Starter Set recently with my family.

I’m looking to check out Pathfinder because despite the warnings of complexity vs 5e I am really drawn to the amount of content, the insane amount of options, and the quirky, wild style that Paizo has imbued everything with. 5e has felt a little more…lifeless and generic, like something that was conceived in a boardroom.

This is the order I’ve been thinking of purchasing stuff. Prob one or two at a time as not to overwhelm myself.

Beginners Box
Core Rulebook
Strategy Guide
Advanced Players Guide
Inner Sea Guide
Ultimate Campaign

And for additional fluff on Golarian I’m thinking either the first volume of the comics or the first volume of Tales.

I'd probably be checking out PFS at a nearby store and hopefully running a game at home once I get a big enough group together.

Anything else you’d change/suggest? (maybe the Rules Reference Cards?) Thanks in advance!


Amazon and a few other online retailers seem to be sold out of the BB currently. Does this mean that a new printing is in the works? I'd hate to go through the effort to track down the BB and then a new printing with changes and/or errata comes out!
