If I were to purchase the hardcover Corebook from the store, would it be 3rd printing? If I purchased it non-mint (a few dings don't bother me as I'll be adding to them I'm sure), would it be 3rd printing?

I keep finding used copies in used bookstores (especially since Paizo announced 2e) but to date I haven't found the most recent printing yet.

The example on p. 327 of the Corebook shows for the Engineer (Rose-7) to Divert Action to enhance Gunnery: "Since the PCs’ starship is tier 1, the DC of the Engineering check to perform this action is 17."

The rule on p. 323 though shows "Divert (Engineering Phase): You can divert auxiliary power into one of your starship’s systems, giving it a boost. This requires a successful Engineering check (DC = 10 + 1-1/2 × your starship’s tier)"

Which value is the correct base? 10 or 15?

I'm planning out the rest of the year in advance of the holidays... Any word on any upcoming sales? I missed out on the Gen Con sale. There's no more scheduled Great Golem sales any more are there? Is that its replacement essentially?

If I purchase a print product, do I also receive the pdf copy? Or is that only for subscriptions?

I would purchase the entire catalog of 1st edition adventure path modules pdfs if Paizo would ever put them on sale. Just saying...

So, I'm essentially learning to "build" a PC by recreating the pregens for the Slithering.

Question for the veteran PF2 players:

Oraka (Orc Investigator) has the following stats at level 5:

Str 14, Dex 16, Con 14, Int 18, Wis 14, Cha 12

How did she get that combination at least so far as the normal ability progression goes and assuming there was no alternative method used to generate her?

I have tried every combination I can find and she always has two points more than any standard progression I can figure.

(and yes, I do realize this is very nerdy and nitpicky question but the math combinations are aggravating me)
