This might be too specialized of a question, but do we have an idea on how this will affect PbP games? Would a character be able to keep their spells and abilities if the game started before August 1st but then continued past that date? Or should we reccomend any Gorumites looking at a game that looks like it will run over that date to rebuild first?
One thing I rarely see on character sheets is consumables.with the 15 starting gold it's hard to justify consumables. If you have spare a health potion/elixir is always good to have on hand! But, yeah, otherwise you're probably not buying much with that 15
T - Tell your GM about your aspirations for your character in the future. U - Understand what your role in the group is.
Also Shifty, please enjoy your cruise! From what tidbits we hear of your life it sounds like you've been hammered for years now and you should definitely have some time off.
This is the last thing I'm going to post on this because A) it is not the intent of this thread and B) you probably have some baggage/issues about people claiming status over others and have clearly made up your mind on this and I doubt there's little I can say to change it. You seem to be focused exclusively on that one phrase and ascribing emotions and motivations to it that are not present in the rest of the post. It was a call to action (e.g. Buy now!) and expression of the merits of sanctioning. These are a common way to motivate people to do something. It might be couched in the terms of a demand but so are most forms of advertising. I doubt this was intended to set up a frame work nor, given context, was it likely intended to be a demand on the organized play people on the sole merit of being a 'most loyal customer.' Finally, I would counter that digging into someone this much over a single line is crappy, especially when that one line is not even the main point of their argument. They've been polite and contentious.
I didn't demand anything”Reward your most loyal fans!”, your exact words, is literally a demand. In context, it was a call to action. Yes isolated it is a demand but everything around it was couched in a completely different tone that was for the most part respectful. I don't know why you seem to be objecting so hard to it.
I have been planning out a fetchling assasin who takes advantage of the feats for them from Knights of Lastwall and this is such good news!
Hrmm, you own (a) parrot(s) and they distract you with random conversations when you try sitting down to write something?
Okay, my time traveling Precog dwarf is definitely still level 1. It'll be fun to bring him on another mission!
Ahh, two rules saying they trump each other! What ever shall we do? Thanks for running a table of both of these and thank-you Farol for the invitation! I'm excited for this... I'm not sure which we should play first, but I have a leshy bard for the PF2 bounty and might have a Precog for the SFS one (the Precog might have leveled out...)
And sadly, the Radiant Oath's small symbol image is broken (as are many of the PF2e factions.)
So sorry for not posting for a while. Life has been busy recently. I'm moving from all of the schools I teach at and my base school closed down so I was running around helping them clean-up, move things around and get rid of unnecessary things or stuff with personally identifiable information. It's sapped my energy and time. Things will be settling down next week, and I should be able to post more regularly.
I'm a level 3 CORE Dwarf Monk - anyone need something punched? Reign of Winter spoilers?: Rasputin?
I know there's more than a few pregens at the table, but I absolutely love playing with GM Doug and don't have any charaters above level 3 free to play in this special with, so third pregen checking in. I'll take a look at party composition and see about who to bring. I'm thinking either Sheelah or Kyra for the healing.
Building a character and was wondering if I could have a cleric pick up a pantheon via the Syncretism feat or if they are too unlike deities to be chosen that way.
Mostly for the flavor of following all of the sun deities (via Touch of the Sun) with a conrasu versus picking one. If needed I could readily pick one of them instead. Thanks for the response, I'll go check with the rules forums now.
I know this isn't the best place to ask rules questions, but I was wanting to double check I am not missing something obvious before asking in the rules forums. Can a cleric with the Syncretism feat choose a pantheon as their second deity?
Wow I hadn't realized that posts about this issue were becoming bad. I guess there's little discussion about these topics in the online campaigns area. But congratulations on the firm stance! Hopefully this will help people think about how they interact with others before posting!
There's also a good chance that the pdf he has is an old download and has been updated since then.
lol, I haven't touched my main profile in YEARS. I'd be curious to see if anyone has looked at it recently (aside from everyone here who are likely to look out of curiosity.)
I can't believe anyone here would be that uptight.Probably not in this game, but in the PbP player pool in general ... *sigh*. :( It's campaign mode most likely. There was no need to own the sources for the uncommon or rare features of the pregens in Sundered Waves. You shouldn't need to buy a book to try the character designs intended to show off the book. (I mean it has line about when the book comes out [which is wrongly stated as next week] after all.)
I'll take Booker Karr. I'm fine with playing him the way he is. Uh... I don't know what to say here. If you really want to play him that's okay but he'd be my top choice.
It seems to be a special set up for this scenario. Everyone else is dealing an extra point of damage with their guns but Booker who does 2. It could possibly be a way of balancing things?
I am also running a table of this as well! Also Scenarios finally dropped so we can prep and share pregens!
Yellow! Checking in now! I'm going to claim Zakzak before Mandoo comes into the thread! I'm kidding of course, and have been contemplating making a Way of the Vanguard gunslinger so Booker Kaar is good for me.
I really enjoy the idea of psyche being a three stage effect. As for how it lasts and such not it might be an 'after x rounds, your mind has strained too much and your psyche goes dormant again. It can't awaken again until after you spend ten minutes to Refocus.' It'd be interesting if the awakened state was different based on the subconcious mind/concious mind, but the unleashed state based on whatever psyches you have access to. That would bring it closer in-line with what the playtest has given us, so the current Unleash feats don't all get scrapped and that design space can also still be explored.
It seems something has gone wrong with the downloads and right now all the digital assets page is making is 22 byte size zip files with no content.
I might end up with a little more GMing on my plate than normal, but I'd love to run a scenario for you Shifty, what with all of the scenarios you've GMed for me in the past and these one-shots are a good length for me. If you'd like I can save a spot for you.
Class archetype or just pure archetype would be fun to see. One that gives the 8th level feat as a basis and then adds some extra power for it with a replacement 8th level feat.
Hrmm, if psyches are kept being unleashed at round 3 (maybe round 2 on the rare case) then maybe the base one that the class gets should allow the Psychic to avoid Incapacitation effects on spells from spell slots while unleashed, but give anyone who would normally benefit from the boost in saves to instead gain a +2 to their save. Makes is so things can still critically fail a spell saving throw, but are less likely to in general.
Given the level 1 feat that gives you a bonus to charisma checks when under the effects of a mental spell or after having cast one that round, you can get a pretty good bonus to social skills depending on your subconscious mind. Outside of that, they don't have great out of combat utility. Would it be a problem to suggest that one of the cantrips given by each conscious mind have an out of combat usability? Yes, take care that it's not a problem if it's spammed, with the realization that if you trigger combat there's a chance that one can walk into combat with less than full focus points. I feel few other classes would be willing to wait for regular focus point refilling without combat, making the chances to spam out of combat amps and still having in combat amps available without Unleashing less likely.
Each new book that comes out makes me really wish I had waited on building my SFS solarion instead of just using the CRB. Whoever wrote the Electrical Attunement alternate class features did a really good job of making something mechanically interesting and two balanced states where either option gives choices.
Ah, but the nice thing about Loka is she can't quite throw pickled anything at the GM.
Know what, I'm going to go with a summoner, again, assuming it is a legal option.
I have issues with this post and was most of the way through a long post on it, but I realized I was not communicating my feelings well and I may not have a good understanding of your feelings nor the whole issue, so I won't post it. But I would say one thing, please talk WITH us, not AT us.
For some reason I completely forgot I signed up for this game... I must have done it during a 'missing Farol fugue' and didn't remember. Uh anyways, I have a few different characters I could try to bring. Rose, a level 1 mastermind rogue,
We only have 2 right now for a possible high subtier table of 2-18 Fanciful March of Urwal. While that's now a legal table, it's always better to have more players. Signup Sheet Sadly the only character I have in that range would be a flurry ranger, and I don't think the table needs another martial character.
I'm crossing my fingers now for Solarion.I know it’ll never happen and I want it very badly. This really feels like something in the realm of third-party publishers. But, oooh, would it be fun to try playing!
international shipping should not mater just send the books out so we can get the pdfs. it just takes a little longer for it to arrive in the mail box. or is paizo waiting for it to arrive so they can send it out. a lot of things have a domestic release and an international release on different days due to shipping. It does matter though. Paizo isn't publishing in house nor in country so the books need to arrive at their warehouse before they can ship. This time they delayed the delivery of products as they hadn't received the Starfinder release for this month and some people subscribe to both not to mention physical game stores that want copies to sell as well, and all of those people would loathe to pay more for a second shipment. I understand waiting is frustrating but it was the best course of action for everyone.
Yup,
Just in case this is a spoiler: it has tie-ins with the new Intro scenarios releasing then too
We only seem to have two people signed up, so unless there's more people interested, there's barely enough for a legal table.
I've only ever played them online, but I hear in person it's a different atmosphere.It involves a lot of yelling across the room. Like I said, different atmosphere. Instead of yelling into the void you have a place to yell at....apparently.
Multi table specials, large group events where multiple tables of players are working towards a common goal. They tend to be the starting point or ending point of a story arc for the season and have stricter posting schedules, but are good fun to play s you sometimes have interaction or support from other tables. I've only ever played them online, but I hear in person it's a different atmosphere.
Hrmm probably not an errata, but definitely possibly needs a clarification. The Conrasu in Lost Omens:The Mwangi Expanse, have a sunlight healing ability that can be used on themselves once a day and then they become temporarily immune. But the Eite of Light heritage gives them the option to heal another creature with this ability other than themselves. So could a conrasu with enough time and sun heal multiple people 1 at a time or is this supposed to still only be a once per day thing? Your exoskeleton bears small shoots that can share life. When using your Sunlight Healing, you can restore the Hit Points of an adjacent ally instead of yourself. That ally becomes temporarily immune to all uses of Sunlight Healing for 1 day.
Assuming that the fox is trotting and not running at top speed in short bursts, (which hitting your top speed from a stand still and then stopping again in 2 seconds would be hard to achieve) 10 feet per action isn't too unrealistic. The red fox trots at about 4-8 mph. At 4 mph they move about 5.8 feet per second, and there might be some time needed to start moving and stopping, so 10 feet per two seconds isn't unrealistic. If we went with the higher value of 8 mph, a speed of 15-20 feet would possibly be more realistic. For game balance, yeah moving faster might be better, though.
If there was ever a chance for me to play in person (the Pathfinder community in rural Japan is... well... almost non-existent) I think I would still do the exact reverse of that. I have a good working version of a character sheet on here and links or copies of text of most of the important rules I would need. I would do this for VTTs too if using their own sheets weren't significantly smoother.
This is why physical book only errata happened in Mwangi book huh?does this mean the book is now complete?It means the digital files went off to our printing partner two Fridays ago to be transformed into physical books, yes! I would likely guess so. The problems/perils of physical publishing.
why was my damage reduced? :)Have you tipped the GM?! xD I can tip in internet cookies! Also Salaish, you can hold onto items and weapons and still cast most spells in this generation. Only material components require a free hand to cast and those spells are almost invariably three action spells. Unless you wanted to for roleplaying reasons, Salaish could keep a hold of her rapier. But then if she's dreading burning the place down then yeah I'd drop the weapon too and focus on that.
Paizo is still a relatively small company and most of their shipping logistics is run in house from their own headquarters in Seattle. To upgrade logistics would require them to either A) open a warehouse in Europe somewhere, or B) subcontract out to a European/international shipping company to handle receiving, packing, and shipping the products to customers. A needs a large capital investment, and B would be ceding control of quality timelines to the other company. However, more than anything, both would require a large and reliable customer base in where ever they extend to, I think there was one time that Paizo contracted Amazon to deliver the international orders for the release of the Pathfinder 2e Core Rulebook. Trust me, as someone living in Japan, I know that getting anything shipped from the US is flipping expensive, but 'upgrading their logistics' is probably fairly difficult to accomplish unless there's significant demand for overseas orders.
Once a character is played, I believe. Otherwise people would never be able to rebuild after their third scenario. EDIT:
"Until you play a game in which your character starts with 12 or more XP, you can freely rebuild your character completely."
Even if you subscribed, the options won't be legal until after the con most likely. Soo, a couple of ways around this, 1 you could GM the scenarios instead and earn GM chronicles. 2, play with a pregen and apply the chronicles but don't finalize the character until the book releases. (I think that works, the free rebuild is until the character is played at 12 xp or higher, right, pregens don't count for that right?) |
