They're in "Paizo Inc.: Rulebooks" That's a terrible description for the second edition only Roleplaying books. First edition labelled pretty badly too; "Paizo Inc.: First Edition". But every old book including the settings books are first edition. This is supposed to be the RPG category. They need to be titled uniformly... Paizo Inc.: Pathfinder RPG First Edition Paizo Inc.: Pathfinder RPG Second Edition ... or something like that. Anyone with a large digital library is going to have trouble finding it, especially when the title of the books aren't even labelled to distinguish between 1e and 2e.
So I saw the tweets about gencon pins and I thought I'd check out the store. Find the pin category and there's something there that doesn't belong. (pawns)
So I very much want to get the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E Expansion Pack (REPRINT) from WizKids... http://wizkids.com/attackwing/staw-wave-27/ ...which is coming out soon. I see Paizo has this listed... http://paizo.com/products/btpy93l0?Star-Trek-Attack-Wing-Federation-USS-Ent erpriseE-Expansion-Pack ...but I can't tell if it's the old one or the new one. I'd very much like to preorder the new one. If this is the new one is it unavailable because it's sold out or what? (The reason I want the Wave 27 reprint is because it comes with the online code for Star Trek Online.)
I received 2 shipments for September. Order 4074688 (Sept 9) and Order 4095109 (Sept 30.) I don't particularly like that, I prefer all my pathfinder once a month. I noticed that Pathfinder Tales was set to... "Ship items from this subscription as they arrive in our warehouse." while all my other subscriptions are set to "Ship items from this subscription once a month." I'm thinking that's what caused the double ship? I've since changed Tales to "Ship items from this subscription once a month." Will that fix it?
I'm very disappointed and need to vent. I asked awhile ago about my pledge for the Pathfinder Kickstarter and was told at the time on the forums that the system wasn't ready. Ok I understood and was more then willing to come back. So some time goes by and I get an email that some of my pledge items have shipped. That's good. I come here to log in to see if I can now select the specific item I pledged for (RPG Print Pack Add-On) is good to go and I find I can't select anything at all now. I sent an email asking about it. Turns out, I'm too late. Shipping some of the items meant the "deadline" had passed. I followed the instructions on the email and finalized it. I replied to the email and sent it also to Goblinworks. Ryan replied saying there were no additional copies of Emerald Spire because printing was based on what people selected. I understand that. I don't want credit towards Pathfinder Online. I don't believe in microtransaction on unfinished games. I pledged what I pledge for and only for the RPG Print Pack Add-On to use in the pen & paper game. While credit might not be the final solution, it probably will be and I don't want it. I very frustrated right now. I recognize it's my own fault for not paying closer attention and won't add additional drama to this post by talking about my last year as to why my attention wasn't on it. It feels like I've lost out and my enthusiasm to see this completed has just been tainted.
So I had a question about the pledge manager. I'm pretty sure I contributed enough to get the print goodies in the kickstarter drive. But it's not listing it under all the future stuff... atleast I don't see it. So do I use my $100 balance to select that add-on? Probably a question for Customer Service but I thought I'd ask here first. So this is what it's showing me.. Will be shipped with a future subscription shipment (estimated June 2014)
Pledge Level________$100.00
I might be missing something about the Magus but the Thrune Agent, page 57. Magus level 8. How does it have comprehend languages, disguise self, protection from good, and hold person? Those aren't Magus spells, so Blood Transcription wouldn't work and at level 8, not high enough to have gotten them from Greater Spell Access.
...and I'd like advice. I'd liked to stay away from dervish style. I already did a bard and enjoyed that. Is opening with Burning Hands at range worth using or should I stick to Shocking Grasp? What are some of the feat options for the first five leaves? Arcane Strike seems like an obvious choice, is weapon focus worth getting? What about combat casting and combat expertise? Is there room for spell focus and spell specialization? Dodge.. power attack. Oye the possibilities.
One of the subjects I've always avoided as GM was traveling amongst the planes. Not that I didn't like it or want it, just when I started playing it wasn't a topic and I seem to remember people talking badly about the planes changing with later editions. The few times the planes have mattered, I just went along with things, my own ignorance being that of the character as well. That said, I'm thinking about bringing my campaign into the planes. Soooo, rules aside, the planes of D&D 1-4 and Pathfinder, I'd like to know which versions of the planes do people think is best to model to use? Am I correct in thinking that 3rd Edition broke the planes of past? Basically I'd like a very thorough breakdown on the different editions and what a majority views as best. Which books from which edition to look at would be most helpful. Posting this on multiple forums for multiple opinions, feel free to contribute to any.
I've been thinking about running The Dancing Hut and I'm at a toss up between the original Dragon #83 version or the reprinted and expanded version printed as a full adventure in 1995 for AD&D. Which do people like better? If I run the 1984 version, is there anything I should borrow from the 1995 version? Your thoughts please.
So I found these 2 reasons and was wondering if anyone knew of anything like them for Pathfinder.. The first is a spread sheet that you plug in the level and it generates loot tables. Found this on slyflourish... The second is from Ben's RPG Pile. Basically breaks down 4e combat into a quick reference cheat sheet... http://bensrpgpile.com/pdfs/4eCribSheet_kiznit_v1.1 Anything know of or have anything like these for Pathfinder?
Yes I'm going to necro an old blog post because I was reading a thread on the 35 private sanctuary forums about paizo collectibles and I decided to look at my Christmas cards and catalogs and came to a sad discovery. I've lost/misplaced this one. I did some cleaning and looking around because I've moved my Pathfinder stuff 3 times because of it's ever growing and didn't find it. Sad face. Was curious, does anyone have one of these kicking around they'd part with? You'd make a fan happy.
I could have sworn at one point or another I remember seeing in a Paizo book art for a dervish dancer. Maybe not a scimitar but definitely a combat dancer. Before everyone says Ultimate Combat.. the elf swashbuckler wasn't what I was thinking. She was more of a veiled dancer with a whole bellydance/arab garb look.
I received my Ultimate Magic today, I opened it, and was startled to hear A LOT of crackling. Upon further investigate I discovered the binding of the pages completely separated from the spine of the hardcover. When I hold the book up like a T ... (covers open) I can actually seem through the gap between the binding and the cover's spine. Should I be concerned the cover is going to separate from the pages?
So I just noticed something. If you take Adaptation from the APG to replace Favored Terrain as a Ranger, you end up breaking Camouflage and Hide in Plain Sight which lets you make a Stealth checks in your favored terrain. If you take Adaptation.. you have no favored terrain. So umm yeah.. is there eratta for this?
So probably like a lot of people, I'm psyched about Diablo 3. Seeing the Demon Hunter got me thinking about how possible that is in D&D. Not so much in 3.5 or 4, but certainly possible in Pathfinder thanks to all the crossbow love. Obviously you need Two Weapon Fighting, -2/-2.
Now under the Hand Crossbow it says... "You can shoot, but not load, a hand crossbow with one hand at no penalty." So does that mean the -2 penalty from light crossbow comes into play? "Normally, operating a light crossbow requires two hands. However, you can shoot, but not load, a light crossbow with one hand at a –2 penalty on attack rolls." So check me on this math for dual wielding hand crossbows... -2/-2 on first attack (assuming their loaded.)
Who's the pirate on the cover of volume 1? I've only thumbed through it and I don't see any reference to her, npc for later?
