<br />
But seeing how powered armor functions, if you were to use haste or another movement increasing ability such as the augmented's overclock ability, it would not increase the burrow speed in power armor but would increase it in heavy armor.</p>
<p>But seeing that specifics trump general, I though I would ask.
<br />
two characters both with the upgrade, 1 with heavy armor and one with power armor.</p>
<p>heavy : 5+30 for haste= a burrow speed of 35 feet
<br />
powered : 5 because power armor speed cannot be adjusted.</p>

But I just ran into something in a society session that augments in specific slots do not function either, these being things like the feet and hand slots or things that would change physiology.</p>

<p>The thruster heels have a function that grants a bonus to the next athletics check but since they are attached to your feet within the larger armor they do not work.</p>
<p>RAI, I completely agree with this, it makes total sense for you to just slam into the monitor when you activate these inside the armor.</p>
<p>RAW however, nothing like this is noted. Not in the current FAQ either.</p>
<p>Things like defensive ball graft or the force bolt graft.</p>
<p>Can powered armor be modified to accomodate augments like lighter armor can?</p>
<p>Or are augments that are usable in powered limited to straight stat boosts or mental actions?</p>The FAQ clarifies that movement altering, unless specific does not function in powered armor.

<p>Race ; Human
<br />
Bloodline 1 : Dragon, Blue : Dragon spit and Dragon prince ancestry feat
<br />
Bloodline 2 : Barbarian : Dragon Instinct, Red, Dragon rage breath
<br />
Bloodline 3 : Sorceror Dedication : Green Dragon, Advanced bloodline : Breath weapon
<br />
Bloodline 4 : Dragon Disciple Dedication : White Dragon : Dragon Disciple Breath.</p>
<p>The Reason why I ask if this can work is due to the wording in the first part of the
<br />
Dragon disciple Dedication ;</p>
<p><b>'You choose to study or worship one type of dragon, and your focus grants you a measure of its power. Choose one color of dragon when you select this feat; if you are a sorcerer with the draconic bloodline, this must be the same type as your bloodline'</b></p>
<p>We do not need to hold to this rule because we are technically not a sorcerer.
<br />
And then in the last part ; </p>
<p><b>'Special You can't select another dedication feat until you have gained two other feats from the dragon disciple archetype. If you later take the sorcerer archetype, you must choose the draconic bloodline.'</b></p>
<p>Due to this wording, I am assuming the restriction would only come into play if we were to take the Sorcerer dedication after we take Dragon Disciple, because we took it in this order, this rule has no effect either.</p>
<p>This is incredibly specific and does not come together until level 16 at the earliest.</p>

<p>Wether they use a jetpack, haste circuit or WE, melee will always have to close the gap wich gives them an innate disadvantage against range, it's not that they cannot close the gap but that they have to.</p>
<p>This in addition to Ranged attackers getting the only easily accessible attack roll increase in the game skews it in their favor.</p>
<p>4 attacks from a ranged character are going to do more damage than 3 from a melee character and like you said, combat tends to be short.</p>

<br />
Ranged get plenty of non gear toys.</p>
<p>Remember the dumb craze at the start? Every melee soldier had to take blitz, every solarion had to take 1 level in blitz soldier because otherwise you would lose initiative almost all the time due to having low dex, because you need some con to survive in melee, you get a static boost yea, but so does the enemy leopard that is eating your face.</p>

<p>It's not a fair comparison to only look at level 10.

Actually the full calculation was made without the bipod, reaching 50%, adding the bipod would remove the penalty completely, resulting in 55%. So you only need the Gunner harness for that calculation.

<p>It would increase damage per hit by +4 for a total of 40.
<br />
Close enough to kill would also help but this requires spending resolve PER attack, a finite resource in combat.</p>
<p>Solarians have reduced penalty on full attacks so their hit chance would increase to 40%.
<br />
Their damage per hit would probably go like this, assuming they forgo any suvivability at all to pump their charisma as well and assuming they have full attunement</p>
<p>3d6base solar weapon,2d6 lesser graviton crystal
<br />
10specialization, +7 from strength, +5 from soulfire, +5 from plasma sheath, +2 from photon mode, for a total of ;</p>
<p>5d6(17avarage)+29 for 46 damage total.</p>
<p>Lot more damage and better hit chance so better right?
<br />
Well they need 3 rounds to enter full attunement. So yes solarions are probably better if the fight lasts longer than 3 rounds and they are still needed at that point, you do not have a good initiative with this route so it might already be over when you go even further beyond.</p>
<p>Heck with light armor and low Dex you might already be dead.</p>
<p>Armor storm is another good point, but the AOO only goes off if you hit the bull rush and you beat it by enough to reach 10 feet, with the innate bonus you chance to hit a 10 feet bullrush is the same as a full attack hit.</p>
<p>But Contrary to a full attack, if you miss the bullrush you lose any chance to do damage at all, so it is not really a rebuttal to this.</p>
<p>——————————-</p>
<p>The soldier needs a turn to setup haste circuit to full attack properly, and until then they can move up and whack once.</p>
<p>The ranged does not need to use biped at all to still have a significant advantage over melee, I applied this in the calculations and they can still full attack from the getgo.</p>

<p>While Melee does more damage per hit, ranged has a much better chance to hit. From 3-10 to 5-10, thats almost a 66% increase in accuracy.</p>

<p>Melee needs to run into range and take fire and then when they get to full attack, they will do less damage than ranged just because they have less chance to hit?</p>

<p>Slippery slope right here, these things are absolute extremes, why isn't all exploration done by drones? Because then there would be no game.
<br />
Why does sniping not outright kill people, because end of the day it is still just a weapon, a sniper bullet will do the same job as a shotgun shell, kill something dead, this cannot work in this game so all guns just deal damage numbers.</p>
<p>Why can power armor speeds not be interacted with, because rules!</p>
<p>The mechanic adjusts their armor to have a different speed, so we have established that an armor's speeds and movement types can be interacted with. </p>
<p>There is no perfect rule yes, but you can lay a foundation to judge case by case situations fairly, judging by the fair bit of discussion, not everyone is on the same page about the current rules on this.</p>
<p>A pilot has a MK III speed suspension, he climbs into the armor, the speed suspension does not work because the armor replaces his speed, makes sense.</p>
<p>A pilot jumps into his armor, let's use this example as a case study.
<br />
Haste is cast on the pilot while wearing armor, let's take the side of it not working this time.
<br />
Running into a couple of enemies, the first thing they do is cast slow, but the power armor has it's own speed so it is not affected by the speed reduction.</p>
<p>To add another example.</p>
<p>A vanguard is piloting power armor, can he channel his entropic strike through the armor? For ease of play I would say yes, it's magical void powers. Or is it, he is not using his own 10 god-given digits so he cannot do jack.</p>BigNorseWolf wrote:...

<p>1)We agree on this, the armor is not a seperate entity, it is equipment that replaces base stats.</p>
<p>2)I think you misunderstood, I am asking : why would these spells ignore the armor if it is just part of the pc? (edit : I worded it very badly, apologies)</p>
<p>3)As we have just established, the armor is just pc equipment that replaces some stats, so why can these stats not be interacted with.
<br />
Ergo, why should haste not increase your speed/the armor's speed? The only thing the armor did was grant you a new base speed you original speed should be outside the equation all together.</p>
<p>4)So we agree that there is a way to interpret the sentence in that way, if in your words : you are very generous.
<br />
I had already stated that the obvious intention is clear, change the wording a bit and it's done.</p>
<p>5)Agreed, common sense does not always equal RAI but it often does.</p>
<p>6)As we just said, Rai does not always equal common sense but it often does, if the rules make no sense but work as written, that just means people will hate the rules or find ways to abuse them.

<p>1)Once again I wholly agree with the specifics trump general argument.
<br />
The power armor jockey states that it adds speed to the armor, solid interpetation, admitted twice now. moving on.</p>
<p>2)Increasing the armor's speed is different from adding to the critter inside it. Yes of course this makes sense, floor is floor so to speak.</p>
<p>So why does Haste/slow/fly target the creature inside the armor as a seperate entity? Has it ever been established that the armor is a seperate entity from the user? No it has not, armor is part of the creature, else everybody that teleports would arrive with no clothes.</p>
<p>TLDR : why would these spells ignore the armor in the first place?</p>
<p>3)Yes I agree that the intention of the ability is for the user to fly while using power armor, as I stated no less than 3 times by now.
<br />
Nevermind the fact that ability is meant to work with any sort of armor, not just powered.</p>
<p>This blatant rules lawyering as you call it is just stating that;
<br />
A.RAW : the ability cannot function with powered armor, as the armor baseline overwrites the character.
<br />
B.RAI : yes it is meant to work in powered armor so add another line in the errata to leave no room for doubt.
<br />
If I did not make that clear, then apologies for vagueness.</p>
<p>4)RAW, force soles do not interact with any of these rules is true and therefore should work, fly does not.
<br />
RAI, force soles should not work because it makes no sense that my tiny ysoki feet inside this gargantuan power armor allow me to transfer that ability to my armor. Likewise casting fly on the ysoki in said armor using these rules would equal a furball pinballing in the cockpit as he attempts to fly while the armor goes nowhere.</p>
<p>There is plenty of argument to make for this, that is true enough, Just saying : Rules make no sense,deal with it, is no argument at all.</p>You are repeating yourself.

<p>1)Specific trumps general, already admitted I misread the power armor jockey, so that one just works.</p>
<p>2)The argument is, why does casting haste/slow or other not work on the armor being used by a character, it is their armor, it is part of them so to speak, it is not a vehicle, it is not a seperate entity, it is just a 'critter' wearing armor that replaces 2 base statistics.</p>
<p>As for adding speeds, read the class feature.</p>
<p><i>Versatile Design (Ex) 10th Level
<br />
Long hours of research and tinkering has taught you how to modify your experimental armor prototype on the fly. <b>Your armor prototype grants you one of the following benefits</b>: +1 to attack rolls, a fly speed of 50 feet (average maneuverability), a fly speed of 30 feet (perfect maneuverability), a swim speed of 30 feet, or darkvision with a range of 60 feet and low-light vision. With 10 minutes of work, you can change the ability granted by your prototype to any other one of these abilities.</i></p>
<p>It specifically notes that it grants <b>YOU</b>, the wearer said bonus.
<br />
As we discussed above, because this bonus is granted to the wearer, it is overwritten by the armor, so it cannot function RAW currently.</p>

Agreed, not Ad hom, but I did not state that, but your obvious reasons are just repeats without adressing the arguments. 1)Specific trumps general, already admitted I misread the power armor jockey, so that one just works.

<p>The prototype mechanic however does not, as the armor grants the creature wearing it a fly speed, wich cannot work with powered armor, as the armor still does not have a fly speed, this can be fixed by adding a simple errata.</p>

<p>Just to get my 2 cents out, I was part of a discussion on a different thread that was also about this problem.</p>
<p><a href="https://paizo.com/threads/rzs42ygw?How-do-spells-affect-a-power-armor-user#1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here it is</a></p>
<p>The conclusion we came to is that : there are so many different effects that using the same rule for every single one of them would a an exercise in time wasting.</p>
<p>So we argued that baseline effects that affect a power armor user would not function, think speed suspension, the fleet feat, the blitz soldier, implanted wings.</p>
<p>But effects that are not active by default on your character would function as they are applied after the armor, so haste and slow would increase and decrease your speed as per normal, all levels of the fly spell would work normally, force soles, gravimetric harness perform their roles as intended.</p>
<p>If you mantain that these things target the creature rather than the armor, it is very easy to fall of a slippery slope that the armor is a seperate entity, wich is such a stupid deep pit that it is better to avoid it entirely.</p>
<p>TLDR So the interpetation we used was : The armor only replaces some base statistics, it's base speeds overwrite your own but can be interacted with as normal.</p>Thaago wrote:Effects (including abilities and spells) that change a creature’s speeds do not affect the speeds of powered armor that creature is wearing; the powered armor's speeds replaced

<p>Whats your normal speed ? The speed of the power armor.

<p>Common sense says that a creature that is forced to move at half speed has a reduced speed does it not?</p>
<p>As a hypothetical example, due to the way haste is written, each creature gains a 30 feet speed increase up to double the base.</p>
<p>Would it function if it said a hasted creature's speed is doubled, up to a 30 feet increase.</p>
<p>Complaining about people taking things to literally but then using the most RAW interpretation of the rule avoiding common sense all together, for lack of a better word, lacks any common sense.</p>
<p>Would it also work the other way around, for example : two years from now, soldiers get a new gear boost or fighting style that allows them to double their movement up to a 30 feet increase once per rest.</p>
<p>Would this then also work?</p>
<p>If so, it would probably be a bad idea to take things so literally, you yourself commented on the thread I linked to earlier, warning us to not take things literally.</p>
<p>We didn't and we arrived at a conclusion most people agreed with.</p>
<p>Going back to the FAQ, Common sense dictates that power armor jockeys and protoype mechanics should be able to increase the speed of their armor. But due to the way it is currently written, they cannot.</p>
<p>An FAQ is meant to allow very little room for interpretation as to prevent rules debate at tables.

<p>The prototype armor mechanic can cause their power armor to grant the character a fly speed, but this FAQ establishes that a power armor's speed overwrites the PC's, so you cannot use the class feature while using the class feature.</p>

<p>Before he can continue however, following the barely concealed insults Harding slams his tome closed and turns to the halfling and fox, an almost palpable killing intent readable on his face.</p>

<p>He calms down after his tyrade</p>
<p><b>'Cheliax and Andoran are two sides of the same coin, Cheliax is brutally ruled to the point where it's population has to be ruthless to succeed, happiness is bought with the suffering of others.

<p>He opens his tome before continueing.</p>
<p><b>'Feel free to live your lives, be a pair of good little puppets, the longer you help maintain this facade, the easier it is for you to be a pair of dogs on a leash, Look beyond the bravado and you can see the open festering wounds of our nation.'</b></p>
<p>He then turns back to Charlotte, intending to continue in pleasant conversation.</p>Harding lifts his eyes from the tome.

Why are you a Pathfinder?
<br />
<b>To pay back the debt to the Silver Crusade for rescueing Rook from a demon attack.</b></p>
<p>2. Do you have a name and surname that is not ripped straight out of existing Earth mythology or popular culture?
<br />
<b>I named him Rook after the chesspiece, in most adventures he is a pillar enemies cannot get past.</b></p>
<p>3. Which nation did you grow up in? How did this nation influence you?
<br />
<b>Climbed up from the darklands after escaping from drow fleshwarping experiments.</b></p>
<p>4. What do you look like? What are your wearing? How does this vary when you’re stalking through forests, sewers, deserts or in glittering cities? <b>Bare-bones when it comes to clothing, covered in chemical wounds and scars, ignores most enviromental clothing because he doesn't need them.</b></p>
<p>5. What do you love? (Treasure and experience doesn’t count)

<p>7. Which other Pathfinders (PCs) do you rely on for teamwork, survival and butt-kicking? Do you have a bro? a mentor? a father figure? maybe a rival?<b>Not really, Rook tends to be nice to anyone if they don't make an ass out of themselves</b></p>
<p>8. How does your race influence your views? Are you a stereotype of a certain race? How are you different from most humans/elves/gnomes/orcs/tengu? <b>As noted earlier, only suspicious of elves because they look like drow and hates drow deeply.</b></p>
<p>9. What are you afraid of? Do you have any phobias or worries?
<br />
<b>Surgery and medical equipment, iffy around mutagen focused alchemists.</b></p>
<p>10. What is your most treasured possession?
<br />
<b>Cobbled together sword, that's his best friend, made from pieces of an old operating table.</b></p>1. Why are you a Pathfinder?

<p><b>I was but a pebble, born in the peaks of Storval, but that was what I was, a pebble. My community would belittle me and my brothers and sisters would ridicule me, picking me up with fingers or rolling me around with their feet.</b></p>
<p><b>At a certain point I became frustrated with my predicament and left for the lower grounds of the plateau. After a long period of wandering I came across a vast port and hid myself on a ship as a stowaway, tired of the land I was born in.</b></p>

<p><b>While I am frustrated to admit it, the prospect of being stranded in a land I did not know was more than my fragile psyche could handle and I ran into the woods without looking.</b>
<br />
<b>Eventually I ran into healthy tree with great force, flinging myself backward onto the ground after wich, my gaze met that of a lesser

kami.</b></p>
<p><b>After being verbally rebuked for attacking it's ward, it asked me from what village I was, sadly I had no answer.</b>
<br />
<b>He directed me to the very center of the forest where I saw a tree greater than the highest peaks of my youth.</b>
<br />
<b>But I was not in awe of the tree, but of the giant that sat in front of it, complete with a makeshift table and great kettle of tea.</b></p>
<p><b>The great spirit took me under it's wing and raised me like my family never did, I learned to respect nature and it's majesty but with wisdom came what was missing ; growth.</b></p>
<p><b>By the time I came of age, I was no longer a pebble but a mighty boulder and the great spirit bidded me to leave, to find my own ward worthy of my protection.</b></p>

<p>With the second option, though, you can make that work with any class. You could have had a profession/been any class before committing your crime, and now you're picking up where you left off. Or you could have been sold to someone who had class levels where you picked up some tricks, like working as a slave to a wizard or alchemist. You could even have been forced into a class by your master, like a gladiator slave. And having been a slave is a great backstory to let your inner rage build up and take some levels in barbarian.</p>
<p>If you want a divine caster class, it would be harder to pull off the character concept with the "divine servant" classes (cleric, warpriest, inquisitor), but ranger or druid could easily work (there's a whole conflict between druids and loggers in the Verderan forest, and Nirmathi rangers are guerillas/freedom fighters, either of which can land you in prison). Oracles can work with any background: one day you woke up cursed and casting. If you wanted to be an "accidental" criminal, Wrecker curse or Haunted curse are great ways to get into trouble without ill intent ("No, sheriff, I really <b>don't</b> know how that got in my backpack...").</p>
<p>Monk will be more difficult because of the lawful requirement, but the Marital Artist archetype lets you avoid that. Even still, it's possible. In a home game, I've got a completely anti-social, misanthropic, drow-blooded Zen Archer: she's only lawful because she knows that if she keeps her head down and follows the rules, she's less likely to get harassed and run out of town as an evil freak. Now, you won't be able to pull off the "all people are crap, and I don't trust any of them" attitude in PFS, but you could probably make the "I'm lawful because I don't want to get in trouble" bit work. </blockquote><p>The slave background idea is a rather good one.
</p>
Combat style is an easy choice for me as going two-handed allows me the feat space for flavor. I would like to have some form of self-recovery, like lay-on hands or fervor, but I want none of the Good alignment.</p>

<p>The Season 6 faction mission for the Silver Crusade is all about redemption and helping veterans of the Fifth Mendevian Crusade. I've have been at several tables (on both sides of the screen) where Silver Crusade members persuade surrendered bandits to come join the Pathfinder Society and/or Silver Crusade as a more productive use of their skills. </p>
<p>You could very easily write a backstory of a criminal in a prison that was destroyed by a demon attack.• Rather than run, you bravely fought the demons.

You come from a culture that includes slavery as a punishment for crimes. A lawful-ish Liberty's Edge member freed a group of slaves and found out that you were enslaved as punishment for crimes. Not being willing to just turn a criminal loose on the world and not able to send you back to your home culture authorities (who will just sell you into slavery again), the Liberty's Edger brought you back to Absalom to join the Pathfinder Society where other faction members can keep an eye on you. </p>
