Swift Alchemy (Ex): At 3rd level, an alchemist can create alchemical items with astounding speed. It takes an alchemist half the normal amount of time to create alchemical items, and he can apply poison to a weapon as a move action. Create Spell Tattoo (Su): At 7th level, a tattooed sorcerer can create a spell tattoo (see page 16) once per day with a single touch as a standard action. The recipient of the spell tattoo must be willing to receive the spell tattoo. If she gives the spell tattoo to herself, it does not count against the regular limit of magic tattoos she can have. The spell tattoo must be of a spell that she knows that has no material or focus component. She can maintain one spell tattoo created by this ability at a time—if she uses this ability again, the previous spell tattoo she created fades away. Spell tattoos she creates with Inscribe Magic Tattoo do not count against this limit. She can use this ability twice per day at 11th level, and three times per day at 15th level. This ability replaces the bloodline feat gained at 7th level. swift alchemy doesn't reduce cost to create anything, just lowers the amount of time it takes. as for the spell tattoo, im sure the intent is that it doesn't cost anything since it can also just go away if you make another one. it also doesn't give them the ability to make normal spell tattoos since they don't have the feat. thats what the line "She can maintain one spell tattoo created by this ability at a time—if she uses this ability again, the previous spell tattoo she created fades away. Spell tattoos she creates with Inscribe Magic Tattoo do not count against this limit." infers to me anyway
My personal preference is 2 levels of cavalier with order of the cockatrice which gives dazzling display as a standard action rather than a full round and also ignores prereqs so you don't even need a weapon to do it. You can take an archetype like gendarme to still get power attack at 1st level, or emissary for full speed in medium armor at 1st level. add 1 level or rogue with the thug archetype to turn shaken into frightened instead.
have you thought about taking druid herbalism instead of the domain?
The Hinterlander prestige class makes a decent cleric archer or warpriest (arsenal chaplin) makes an amazing divine archer
you might want to check the rogue archetype thug "Frightening (Ex): Whenever a thug successfully uses Intimidate to demoralize a creature, the duration of the shaken condition is increased by 1 round. In addition, if the target is shaken for 4 or more rounds, the thug can instead decide to make the target frightened for 1 round. This ability replaces trapfinding." In PFS i used a cavalier with order of the cockatrice and a level of thug rogue to great effect
I was thinking of gloves of dueling, not the sash. Increase weapon training by 2,use trained grace, keep strength at 14. But I'm just spit balling ideas. I feel like it's better to free up a couple feats and ignore dex to damage and double slice.
what if we did weapon master, drop double slice, slashing grace, and two weapon grace, grabbing focus weapon and trained grace weapon trainings with the feats? also, a Sash of the War Champion seems a must for this build
the vexing dodger archetype does what the rogue is looking for. works especially well with a single level dip of swashbuckler with the mouser archetype
Bar Room Brawler paired with the advanced weapon training ability abundant tactics. pull out any feat on the fly. especially nice when you need a very specific feat 1 time. like rat catcher or you can always use barroom brawler to pick up dedicated adversary to basically gain favored enemy on demand
I'm dying to know Soapbox, did your GM finally concede the point? point out to the DM that a lot of the bonuses to AC also add to cmd. dodge, deflection, ect Miscellaneous ModifiersA creature can also add any circumstance, deflection, dodge, insight, luck, morale, profane, and sacred bonuses to AC to its CMD. Any penalties to a creature’s AC also apply to its CMD. A flat-footed creature does not add its Dexterity bonus to its CMD.
"Any summoner (including the summoner from Pathfinder Unchained) can select the god caller archetype." that is referring to the summoner and unchained summoner classes. it means the archetype can be taken by either class.it does not mean it can be taken by a summoner with conflicting archetypes it still can not be combined with other archetypes that replace or change any of the same things as it does

The important aspect of bonus types is that two bonuses of the same type don’t generally stack. With the exception of dodge bonuses, most circumstance bonuses, and racial bonuses, only the better bonus of a given type works. Bonuses without a type always stack, unless they are from the same source.
you have it correct. the additional dice is applied after critical damage is calculated. for the big dice number question, i'll share my favorite example:
on a crit, the 8d6 whoould get the x3 multiplier, but not other 24d6 there is a build i've seen that uses improvised weapons to get upto 12d6, but theres GM variation on "oversized improvised weapons"
vital strike c
3d6 base becomes 8d6 after enlarged, over sided, and impact greater vital strike. 32d6. 2 hand fighter adds 2x str mod to damage 40str for easy math (+30). power attack+ furious focus + vital strike for 32d6+55ish. use cyclops helm for nat 20. can only fail confirm on nat 1. Or use furious finish for max damage guaranteed deal maxxed 247ish damage from a +7 weapon (screw their DR) or 741ish maxxed crit
Air Repeater is an early firearm, and doesnt even use black powder. Has 6 shots. You dont even need the musket master dip
easily replaced with adopted trait, which lets you pick up the tusked trait from half orc or orc for a 1d4 bite instead
*Laughs in huge impact butchers axe greater vital strike furious finish*
Half orc with alt racial traits (sacred tattoo, shamans apprentice)
sure you have a few less hp from a d8 hd vs a fighters d10, but you also get up to 6th level spells that can help a lot more than an average of 21 hp at 20th level. 20 feats vs a human fighters 22 feats. at 20th you have 5 less bab, but can get an additional +11 to hit and 7 damage, from 2 spells, which makes up for missing 4 damage on precise strike IF the fighter is hasted or has a speed enhancement on their bow, they can pull back ahead in DPS, but by less than an entire shots worth of damage
i know its a slight stretch, but dwarven maulaxe is a light exotic weapon that deals a d6 and is half axe half hammer. also, if not a dex build, theres a trait for earthbreaker proficiency
you can get hammer proficiency a lot better. theres an alternate ability for humans that gives 2 martial or exotic weapon profs, thats better than wasting a feat on 1 weapon."Military Tradition Source Inner Sea Races pg. 214 Several human cultures raise all children (or all children of a certain social class) to serve in the military or defend themselves with force of arms. They gain proficiency with up to two martial or exotic weapons appropriate to their culture. This racial trait replaces the bonus feat trait." half elves can also trade skill focus for a weapon prof IIRC
except for the whole "You can perform one swift action per turn without affecting your ability to perform other actions. In that regard, a swift action is like a free action. You can, however, perform only one single swift action per turn, regardless of what other actions you take. " part. after you take a swift action, you could theoretically ready another swift action, but you can't actually perform said swift action.
glad a necromancer came to resurrect this thread 12 years after the conversation died. Late entry to the oldest necro'd thread of the year contest, but a possible winner
That's Kingmaker, PFS just limited HD to CL+1 (Druid Level 16 at level 12, vs Druid Level 21 without the limit). theres something PFS too i think.I might be thinking of the divine hunter hunter archetype, which is similar to the sacred huntmaster tho
Wayang Spellhunter and Magical Lineage are both Traits, thus the modifcation should be listed as a trait bonus. These traits offer the same bonus and DO NOT STACK. sure am glad you clarified this, and only 12 YEARS after it was posted
Oh hey, its my old "My horse is amazing" build making the rounds again. They battered my poor build with so many nerf bats
For sure sharing the turn is against the rulesYou may well be right (although I disagree that it is remotely as clear as you claim it is), but I literally said in my first post that "it is not strict RAW" so I am not sure why you are trying to turn this into a RAW argument. Have you been in the rules forum? Around these parts its like when Gordon Ramsey sees undercooked chicken... |
