So here is the situation. We had a wendigo attack us during a blizzard and it was impossible to kill with 4 players (level 15) and 2 pets.

The blizzard was caused by the creature (control weather) but the GM had it be immune to the sight issue; 20 feet max for us.

This creature has fly-by-attack and even with stealth (+26) it could move 60'. We all took the ready action for it to break stealth (right after it attacks) but how does that work with fly-by-attack?

I assume that as soon as it attacks stealth is broken we get our ready actions and the creature stops moving because we were "ready" for it to break stealth. Does that sound right?

I'm not sure this is the place to post this but here it goes.

I would love to have professional spell cards printed for all the spells in the system. Something like the old condition cards, etc.

Not sure if it's a profitable item for Paizo but I for one would buy a set or two.

OK, before I get the beat down from everyone, I understand how replays work.

That being said, has there been any discussion on allowing players to have some sort of unlimited replay rule for all scenarios, not just the specific re-playable ones?

I was thinking along the line of a PC can only play the scenario once but the player, after letting the GM know he/she has played it, can play it again and apply that to another character.

Other than meta-gaming (and that is no small thing), what would be the drawback?

Greetings GMs,

I run PFS at my LFGS at least twice a month and there is a core group of 6 that have pretty much optimized their characters, which is good, but some of the scenarios are easy due to that optimization - they are breezing through them recently.

After the last game they asked for two things, and being a nice GM, I'd like to help them out.

1. Tougher scenarios - they are current on season 7 and 8 so I would like some suggestions for older season scenarios that can be somewhat difficult, level 5 to 9.

2. Are there any scenarios that offer up a race boon? I don't think so but being somewhat new (almost 1 year) I'm not sure.

Thanks.

Can the quest scenario "Honor's Echo" be replayed?

I know that there just a few scenarios that can be replayed for credit (Wounded Wisp, Confirmation, Consortium Compact) but in the Honor's Echo quest it states, on page 3, "Honor's Echo can be replayed for credit, but the credit must be applied to a different 1st-level character each time."

Is that a mistake or is this new for season 8?

Hey all,

I'm trying to find a way to have a blue-tooth headset talk to a blue-tooth speaker for when I GM, especially at conventions.

Has anyone looked into this before?

Obviously I don't want to blast the sound to overpower the other tables but I also don't want to lose my voice (which I tend to do). I just want to talk at a normal level and have the other players hear it.

I do have access to an iPad, iPhone and an android tablet.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I was GM'ing a game last night and there was an encounter with some skeletons. The party, all 1st level, had an alchemist that threw a bomb and hit a skeleton.

The damage total was 6 (3 on the die, +3 INT). Does the skeleton take the full damage or does the DR come into effect? Is the bomb considered magic or bludgeoning damage? What kind of damage is a bomb?

Does anyone know if there are class decks for casters? I have someone that is new at Pathfinder and instead of them looking at various books (and short of writing them all out) cards would be helpful.

Can a Witch teach its familiar spells from a spellbook that the Witch finds or does it have to be from a scroll?

A character found a spellbook at the end of a scenario and wants to learn them...what is the right way to do that?

Grand Lodge

I know how this spell works, and let's stay away from overpowered or not, but how does someone get away from this?

It's sunder to break it, which is CMB vs the CMD of the caster? Is that correct?

Or can the target move more than 20 feet away and the spell would be cancelled?

Quick question - is a half-orc scarred witch doctor allowed in PFS play?

Grand Lodge

What do people use to contain/hold your minis? I have hundreds of them and they are in various containers but nothing that stacks nice.

Is there something out there for "normal size" and the large ones (giants, dragons, etc.).

Thanks in advance.

New to Pathfinder, looking for a quick answer.

How many encounters should the party normally be able to handle per day? Assume that each encounter is appropriate for their level.

Is 4 normally the rule? Less or more?

Thanks..
