Good Evening, I am running a Half Elven Rogue in the Age of Ashes AP. I've just hit 10th level and have 1,500gp to spend on magic items in a level 7 city. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for what magic items I should try to purchase? I currently have: +1 striking dagger
Any advice would be much appreciated. Prux
All, I'm running a 4th Human Cloistered Cleric of Sarenrae in the Extinction Curse, and I've got to say that I'm not really enjoying it, primarily because it seems to be so ineffective. It pretty much stays at the back of the party and heals the other characters. My GM allows players to tweak characters up to 5th level, so I'm after a bit of advice on how I can make this more effective. My current build is as follows: Str - 10
Ancestry feats - Natural ambition (domain initiate)
Background - Barker, Group coercion Class feats - Directed Channel & Healing hands General feats - Battle medicine & ward medic Skill feats - Continual recovery & quick identification. Spells
Focus points 2
Any advice on what I can do to make this a more effective in general game play would be very much appreciated. Regards Prux
Good Evening, I'm after a Rogue build for the Age of Ashes AP, which I'm starting in a couple of weeks. I've only played Plaguestone in Second Edition and I was running a War Priest, so this will be the first Rogue that I've built. I'm thinking of maybe a Half Elf with the Thief Racket. I want to use the AP backgrounds and was considering Local Scion. I'm not into archer type builds. Any advice/guidance would be much appreciated. Prux
All, So after a hiatus of a few years, our gaming group is heading away this Friday for a full weekend of Pathfinder. We're currently in Book 5 of Giantslayer and we have to take spare characters with us in case of deaths. I'm currently running a 13th level Conjurer and am hoping for two things. One - any advice on what 8th level spells I should take in the unlikeliy case that we hit 15th at some point. Two - A backup character in case my Wizard snuffs it. It's a 20 point build that would come in at 13th/14th level. Any 'out of the box' ideas would be welcomed. Thanks in advance. Prux.
All,
I'm running a Human Conjurer (Teleport) that's just hit 13th level Human Conjurer (Teleport). I'm playing in the Giantslayer AP. I'm after advice on what 7th level spells I should use, and also a general sanity check on what I've got in my spellbook thus far.

Any advice would be appreciated.
All, This is a follow on from a previous post where I asked advice about 5th levels spells. I'm running a 10th level Human Conjurer (Teleport) and I'm close to leveling to 11th. I'm after advice on what 5th level spells I should use, and also a general sanity check on what I've got in my spellbook thus far. I can't say that I'm a big fan of the 'summon' spells as I've found that they really slow the game down, so I'm keen to steer clear of those. My opposition schools are necromancy and enchantment. My spellbook contains the following spells Wizard 1
Wizard 2
Wizard 3
Wizard 4

Any advice would be appreciated. Prux

All, I'm running an 8th level Conjurer (teleportation) that is about to hit 9th level. I took craft wand as my previous feat and am going to take craft wondrous item next. Can anyone provide me with some tips on what wondrous magic items I should craft? I'm thinking of Goggles of Night as we have three humans in the party (myself included). I welcome any other suggestions. Prux
All, I'm running a 7th level Human Conjurer (Teleport) and I'm close to leveling to 8th.

Can anyone please explain to me the best way to use a 'Demand' Spell? One of the monsters in my campaign has it and I can't see any logical way to use it as it doesn't really seem to be useful. Regards Prux. Demand The gadget spec URL could not be found

DESCRIPTION
The demand's message to the creature must be 25 words or less, including the suggestion. The creature can also give a short reply immediately.
I'm about to start the Giantslayer Adventure Path and was thinking about running a Wizard. I could really do with some advice as I've pretty much been GM'ing for about 4 years and am a little out of touch with character generation. Our GM has given us a 20 point build to start with. I like to have fun with my characters, they're generally Chaotic Good with a dash of madness and bravado, with delusions of grandeur thrown in for good measure. Any tips would be much appreciated. Regards Prux

I'm currently running Into the Nightmare Rift, which is the 5th part of the Shattered Star AP. The characters are currently 13th level and will soon be 14th. The players and I are finding that combat is taking an inordinate amount of time. Having run 10th level modules before I've found that this is symptomatic of the Pathfinder game. Does anyone have any ideas on how we can speed things up or maybe simplify things? Prux
I'm after some advice on a 20 point Paladin build for the Giantslayer Adventure Path. I want to steer clear of the sword and board type and go for the two handed weapon option, probably with a falchion. A few years ago I was given the following build based on rolled stats, but a lot has changed since then and there might be something that can add to it, or is better: 18, 14, 8, 11, 14, 14 Human Paladin (Oath of Vengeance) Attributes:
Traits:
Feats:
Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Prux.
My party is about to enter the Guiltspur Depths in part 5 of the Shattered Star AP, Into the Nightmare Rift. This entire part of the dungeon is subject to the spell Dimensional Lock: You create a shimmering emerald barrier that completely blocks extradimensional travel. Forms of movement barred include astral projection, blink, dimension door, ethereal jaunt, etherealness, gate, maze, plane shift, shadow walk, teleport, and similar spell-like abilities. Once dimensional lock is in place, extradimensional travel into or out of the area is not possible. A dimensional lock does not interfere with the movement of creatures already in ethereal or astral form when the spell is cast, nor does it block extradimensional perception or attack forms. Also, the spell does not prevent summoned creatures from disappearing at the end of a summoning spell. My first question is, does this spell prevent teleport etc within the area, say from one side of a room to another, or does it only prevent it from entering and leaving the targeted area? I would have thought the former, but am happy to be proved otherwise. My second question is on summoned creatures. In the description above, it states that "the spell does not prevent summoned creatures from disappearing at the end of a summoning spell". Does that mean that they can't be summoned into an effected area in the first place? Regards Prux.
I'm currently running Beyond the Doomsday Door, which is part 4 of the Shattered Star Adventure Path. After a recent death, one of the players decided to play a Ninja, a Tengu named Polly, which was created at 11th level to fit in with the rest of the characters. Is it just me or are Ninja's more than a little over the top? The player has taken the Master Trick Invisible Blade, which has created a veritable killing machine. Invisible Blade (Su): Whenever a ninja uses the vanishing trick ninja trick, she is treated as if she were under the effects of greater invisibility. The ninja must have the vanishing trick ninja trick before selecting this ninja trick. Polly has two Kukri's (threat range 18-20), Two-Weapon Fighting, Improved Two-Weapon Fighting, and 6d6 sneak attack. Throw in the standard party buff of haste, and during a full round action he gets 4 attacks (not including his beak attack) at a flat footed opponent with a max damage of 4d4 + 24d6 + the inevitable critical hits (alas we also use the Critical Hit card deck). That's every round, for up to 55 rounds (5 Ki points @ 11 rounds per point). No I acknowledge that a lot of those rounds will be used moving to targets, however if he even spends just a third of his time in full round combat that's still 18 rounds; you can do the math. Needless to say Polly is pretty much carving up everything he comes across, and has the real potential to seriously unbalance the game. I'm keen to get other peoples thoughts on this. Regards Prux
I just went to purchase 26 items via the Great Golem Sale, totally around about $100. I was horrified to see that I was to be charged $107 for shipping to Australia. I tried to look for another option instead of 6-10 day delivery but could not find one. Is there another slower postal option that I can use? I'm really only buying these modules for collection purposes and won't by using them any time soon. Regards Prux
I'm currently running the Asylum Stone in the Shattered Start Adventure Path. The 8th level Wizard in the party has 2 4th level spells per day and he's taken Enervation. This spell is causing absolute mayhem in the game. All he needs to do is hit with a ranged touch attack and the target loses 1d4 levels (no save but Spell Resistance applies). In my opinion this is one of the most unbalanced spells that I've ever encountered, and I've been playing RPG's for over 30 years. Are there any DM's out there that can give me suggestions on how to deal with this? I don't want to persecute a character out of the game, as it's all supposed to be about fun, however I'd like to balance things out a bit if I can. Cheers Prux.
This spell does 3d6 strength damage, but it appears to be temporary as it has a duration: 'once triggered, a symbol of weakness simply remains active for 10 minutes per caster level. A creature can only be affected by this symbol once.' If a character is reduced to below 0 strength, do they die even if the damage is temporary? Regards Prux
