![]() Personally I'm super into the Tradition based grouping of dragons as the primary for Pathfinder. I feel it really places the dragons into the lore and the mechanics of the game in a strong way. Having the various families freed from previous patterns gives more variety and indivuality. The old pattern of new groups being in fives was great continuing off the DnD tradition, but I don't think Paizo is going to hold to that any longer. A single type of 2e dragon can pretty easily represent more than one type of 1ed dragon, and some 1ed dragons can easily be represented by multiple different 2e dragons. They are definitely taking good advantage of reframing. It does suck to lose some cool old elements to OGL distancing, but considering the cross compatibility and what is already out there I feel the community can produce reasonable accommodations. ![]()

![]() Currently playing a 3rd level Champion and never played the pre-master Champion. Level 3 made my shield feel insanely good. My steel shield has more HP than I do! I am not sure I've seen a hit that could even break my shield yet. Hardness 8 and 32 BT means I need a 41 damage hit. I've taken a few hits in the low 30s but they weren't blockable due to being energy damage. Obviously later the math works out but currently breaking my shield just isn't a likely occurrence. Obviously, the pre-master Shield Ally is more effective if investing into a shield, but I kind of like being encouraged to go for something else. Personally I am considering Doubling Rings with a Shield Augmentation for Shove and Trip. Which still leaves another 25 gp over a Rune for other interesting items. ![]()

![]() I think there could be a specific Cyborg archetypes (similar to the Sterling Dynamo archetype) but I think a Cyborg versatile heritage would be fun add for Starfinder. Can even give a ruling that it can be retrained into with the right circumstance. As a versatile heritage, Cyborg might work like a half-Android heritage and use the Android feats. Mystic and Witchwarper subclasses leave a lot of room for various SciFantasy magic types. ![]()

![]() I also think it helps to reimagine strength more to how it is used in PF2 than old DND descriptions. The Player Core describes strength as "physical power" and "physical might." While being a big muscled warrior is often how that is portrayed, I don't think that should be the limit of the fantasy and I don't think that is the designers intent. It is also how good one can use those muscles. Skillful warrior characters in media are not shown as weak, so I think it would be helpful to remember big strength doesn't just mean big muscles. In PF2 terms, a character like Drizzt level 16 isn't Str 13 Dex 20 like DnD2e, he is probably Str 5✓ Dex 5. Though he could easily be Str 5 Dex 5✓ and only be a point behind on attacks and damage. He is both acrobatic and athletic in the books, and sword fights against I chose Martial Disciple as the background and went heavily into Str and Dex. Probably 2 free boosts from ancestry instead of the usual Elf spread. ![]()

![]() Is Starfinder possibly starting a pocket edition subscription in time for the new books or at least the Player Core? If so, that makes my decision for Starfinder easier. My thoughts were leaning towards doing the normal Starfinder subscription just for the Core three as a taste if anything, but a pocket edition sub would be easier to justify for more. ![]()

![]() Remember, Paizo isn't making decisions solely on how an IP case would likely be ruled, but also to avoid a case whatsoever. Plus Paizo really wants to emphasize the specifics of the Pathfinder IP. Even though the names and descriptions are fairly generic it is best to focus on new takes when keeping a monster. That includes name changes that might not be strictly necessary. ![]()

![]() After the remaster hits I am planning a game that will include a more fully owl aesthetic stryx, and found this thread. In 2ed stryx have already widened from their 1ed descriptions. I agree with new take that the syrinx are the Arcadian population and don't need a separate ancestry. The current heritages can already work well for syrinx but I imagine a syrinx update will also add a few more. Personally I think allowing the wide-eared swept-haired elfish faced people on one end with beak-faced feather avian-headed on the other is a reasonable variety within an ancestry that doesn't need rules differentiation. Plus room for mixing in between as wanted by players. In that sense I think additional isolated populations of owl-folk can be revealed to be the same ancestry with different recent histories and aesthetics. ![]()

![]() For me Legendary Adventures will come out ~$25 more than Ruins of Lastwall, ~$40 more than Kingmaker and Jungle of Despair. For a larger incentive and a number of huge figurines instead of large that doesn't seem like a terrible increase. The cost of a case is the same, the incentive a little more (but the still steep discount), with most of the increase coming in shipping. Overall that doesn't seem terrible, but obviously it isn't great. Looking at a few other sites I still cannot find the set any cheaper. I haven't been able to find shipping weights for Icons of the Realms cases, but I've found some for bricks. I've noticed the sets with many huge figures break 3 lbs. Sets without or just one huge figure sit around 1.5 lbs. Sets with a smaller set of huge figures seem to fall between. This seems to roughly match up with the jump from 7 to 12 pounds we are seeing in the Pathfinder cases. So this isn't an issue with Pathfinder Battles, but with huge figures. I suppose that might have been one of the factors that made them not worthwhile in the past? Since Paizo gives a big discount on their licensed miniatures instead of free shipping, we are just not used to seeing this sort of issue that other sellers are probably seeing with Icons of the Realms. Looking at my Rise of the Runelords case the shipping came out to around $50, but I know that shipping rates have changed since then. The case seems to have also weighed 12 lbs. Maybe going forward the better idea will be have a smaller share of huge figures? Obviously not always the big playset incentives either. Some of the larges in Pathfinder Battles can get quite weighty as is. This is a tough balance. I'm not sure where the line is on weight that causes a huge increase in shipping, but targeting that might be preferred. If huge figures are only present in bigger numbers every third or second set that probably isn't an issue for me. ![]()

![]() My plan is to sub at least through the the initial offerings provided in six months. Paizo produces quality and even if P2 ends up not being my preference I want to give it a solid attempt. To me it is the same service and subscriptions, so it makes sense I don't have to re-up to continue them. The rules may change but that has happened before. Also place me as someone who wants the PDFs to remain as the big incentive to subscribe. I wish more companies made the print/pdf bundles more accessible. The new format of the World Guide line in hardcovers is a great replacement to the two softcover player and GM focussed lines. For Paizo's finances, mix use RPG books tend to sell better. For our customer finances, I like that it isn't every month. Good luck on the transition! ![]()

![]() I'm very happy to see the sets go with a large/huge split. WizKids seemed to be experimenting in that direction in the Icons sets. Since budgets can be spread across the set and rarity this opens up a lot of possibilities. Obviously over hanging figures such as the Water Lord Huge Elemental doesn't fit in that method, but it allows less massive and simpler figures that wouldn't be as good a draw for incentives or special release sets. Seeing repeats is less interesting, but at least they look different and hopefully isn't too much of a pattern. Plenty of gobs is going to be alright with me. I wonder if the hobgoblins have much of a change other than appearance. Paizo doubling down on their iconic goblin look is probably a good idea as they pull further away from 3.x DND. I wonder if bugbears would have been more interesting with oversized heads as well. The goblin village is nice, but the play sets are starting to dominate. I would prefer to alternate. There are still plenty of awesome gargantuan creatures to feature. Overall, I'm excited to see the new direction even if not everything is getting me full barrel yet. ![]()

![]() Any suggestions for displaying the poster maps from the Map Folios? Storage has been easy since they fold down into paper size, but I still haven't found a great way to display a map during gaming. My wants are to set a map up as something the players can view without taking up the play area since these tend to be regional/city poster maps instead of gaming maps. Hanging is an alright option, but I would prefer a way to lean it up against a wall since I sometimes run games at other places than my own. I have tried a 24x36 toploader. Unfortunately at that size they are not rigid (despite Ultra Pro claiming theirs are), so they could be hung but don't have a built in way for that. There are of course frames for that size poster but I'm trying to avoid anything too expensive or difficult to swap out maps in between sessions. MCS makes decent affordable poster frames in the smaller sizes, but at the size large enough for the map folios they are no longer solid pieces and tend to fall apart. What have been your solutions? Even ones that don't fit my thoughts above since I'm curious how others use them. ![]()

![]() Hopefully for alchemists these items in general have a scaling effect, not just bombs. Otherwise we run into the same system seen previously with spells. As you level you would need higher level formulas to do more powerful effects instead of the automatic heightened effects that spells will now have. Maybe items, like spells, could have a heightened entry that triggers off of the alchemist level instead of alchemist having a blanket +d6 to bombs periodically. Call it something like "experimentation" or "ingenuity" level. Overall though, I am liking where alchemy is going as a basic part of the system. ![]()

I'm going to argue that this isn't any more video gaming than taking turns has been since 3.0. Your actions on your turn are supposed to represent what you are doing during the round. A character isn't standing still while other characters act, that is a conceit to manage the game. The whole structure is video gamey! I actually enjoyed the everyone declare then everyone act structure of older style games but they tended to be slower and harder to wrap your mind around. Shadow of the Demon Lord sort of brings it back with their quick and slow action system. If a character wants to pay more close attention to their opponent's actions and attempt to disrupt it, it sounds like the ready action should be good for that since it works off of reactions and only requires one action. My hope that the ready action allows a degree of open endedness (I hit them if they let down their guard). Ready in 3.x style games had a huge opportunity cost. Now it is one of three actions and depending on how readying a third attack works might be a really good circumstantial option even without reaction abilities. AoO were a way to make combat feel more dynamic, live and simultaneous. They did good at that. But now actions are being broken down a little more fluidly in a turn. Since the opportunity cost of the ready action is significantly lower, it makes sense to meld everything together. That some characters will be better at this sort of thing does not mean that other characters will be horrible. They will just likely have different incentives. Rogue-like characters being good with AoOs is a style I hope carries forward in the system. I just don't expect it to work out exactly the same. My suspicion is that Fighter types and Rogue types will have a very different feel to the reactions, and opportunist style rogues will still be a thing. ![]()

![]() I think one thing to keep in mind is that actions and turns are nebulously simultaneous. Turns, rounds, actions, initiative, ect are all abstractions to provide structure to the chaos. Narratively each character isn't spending 6 seconds doing something, then waiting around 6 seconds time the number of other characters to do something. Hopefully in PF2 this is better emphasized and actions can be simultaneous or sequential as the needs of the moment require. Think of the three actions as how much concentration is required. When spell casting you don't do the chant then the gestures, you do them both at the same time but it takes two actions because they are both complex procedures requiring focus.I think this is a better way to translate the structure of the rules into the narration of the action. I already house ruled this into games that I have run, original 3.x action economy or RAE. Yes, this effectively eliminates Shot on the Run and such but it feels more natural for less experienced players when describing what they want to do. ![]()

I think this concept is going to be easy to portray in this system. A shield isn't a passive defensive item. It is something actively use to block and shield yourself with. So option c) is one action to attack, one to defend, and the third action for movement or whatever. Option a) is essentially just attacking multiple times. The character is focusing on offense instead of offense and defense in that action. Option b) really comes down to how they handle two weapon fighting in the system. Two weapon fighting is something that is hard to handle well in RPG systems. Holding two weapons doesn't give you more actions in real life. You already have a second hand. The second hand, empty or with a weapon, gives more options that can be in tandem with your main weapon. Locking weapons, double strikes, grappling, feints... ect. So rather than see something like extra attacks as previous D&D systems have done, I would rather see a series off hand actions to represent using your second hand more fully. ![]()

![]() I am another player in love with the Unchained RAE. Seeing this change in PF2 from the get go will be an immensely good thing in my opinion. My current games haven't been using it because I didn't want to add the complexity of having to double check against something else for some of players who struggle with some things as is. But when I have played with it in use, it has been great. As for Attacks of Opportunity now a learned instead of base Reaction from the sound of things.. I think this will still work. At the very least, you can attack twice or move/attack then ready an action to hit if your opponent drops their guard. So it is a tactical decision to either focus on your own actions or to focus on that of your opponent. Archers vs Melee Disparity: Archers already have the advantage of standing still to get many attacks while melee has to get in close. So that isn't a new issue. In my experience with the RAE it is alleviated by more dynamic turns. The real issue will be in balancing the feat/ability choices that play into ranged attacks. Gish and swift action characters: Will obviously be designed differently in this edition. Already, it will take less work to make a Magus style character with the base Wizard class. So a Magus class if added down the line will have unique features that play off the current system. Fighters having easier access to things than others is a good thing in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing the action system in action. ![]()

![]() This is a change I am happy with! While rough, and a patch to a preexisting system, the Revised Action Economy is basically why I bought Pathfinder Unchained. My preference is for more tactical combat and this will help encourage that. Hopefully, all of your actions can be done during your other actions so that you don't need multiple action to move before and after an attack. I think that would flow more naturally. Action cost can be more nuanced in balancing magic. Hybrid characters that rely on spellcasting to buff can be easier to design if buff spells only cost one act. ![]()

![]() My preference would be to generalize names and to ditch the old naming system. The in setting names could be localized. Plus a customization system. A great sword could refer to things various things like a claymore, flammbard, ect. An area could even use the same name for multiple types of weapons, like actually happens. I doubt either will happen, but that would be my preference. ![]()

Maybe a miniaturized version of those logos could be in the black bar to the right of the date/time stamp. Maybe the Store blog can receive it's own logo.

![]() I do love the look of the landing page. Overall it is much more modern and in keeping with other gaming sites. The line with current month releases, with the option to scroll back or forward one month is a great idea. The "featured" section is not auto scrolling for me on Chrome, but is a wonderful addition. I love having the art showcased in this way and it keeps the landing page fresh and dynamic. The look of forum post pages still appears a little off to me. The font is bigger, but I feel the real issue as others stated is the width. The text wrap is working fine if I resize the window in desktop Chrome, but that also means keeping my Paizo tab open in a separate window instead of a different tab. A minor nitpick I know but just giving feedback. The width seems good for browsing through the thread titles, with the caveat of the font feeling a bit too large. Forum browsing on my phone I feel is much better. The font still feels a little big but the width is perfect. Browsing topic threads the width feels too small, but it also feels quicker. Personally, I feel the biggest loss on the front page is the Blog. Paizo's blog feels much more interactive and widely read than many company sites I frequent. There are many elements I would not have noticed without the blog calling to me. The store blog has especially been useful of informing me of product you carry from other companies. The Paizo blog has been great for introducing me to new ideas and keeping me informed of what the company is up to. Something other gaming companies sorely lack. My suggestion would be to have the most recent store and Paizo blog posts in the "featured" scroll. EDIT: To add to my point, yesterday's blog post for PACG has zero responses after almost 22 hours. Overall the site is running significantly faster and it feels like it takes less bandwidth. I am looking forward to see what other new features are in the works once the roll out issues are finished. Great work! ![]()

![]() My set is now fully opened up! Pros:
Middling Points:
Negatives:
- This is probably my own errors, but the sea drakes are a pain to remove. Two of the three snapped where the base meets the stand trying to get them out of the plastic. The problem I feel is they are held at both the top and the base. The one I removed without error I had to carefully shimming alternating between the top and bottom. That was on my second try, and was unable to do it on my third. Maybe I should cut those figures out in the future. Should be an easy glue fix, as I've broken a few stands on flying figures before, but I feel they can be packaged a little better. - My Portcullis has a pretty severe warp. The two ends have folded in, so they cannot rest flat on a table and the the thinner bars have a wave. In all fairness I live in Texas so it could have been the heat of transport. Did anyone else experience this? I'm trying to decide if I should try for a replacement or if I should attempt a hot water dip to try and straighten out the figure. Still really enjoying these cases and look forward to the next set! ![]()

![]() One of my players is an alchemist of the reanimator archetype. The concept is flavorful and I like some of the fun that can be had in our campaign. After a few sessions my feeling is the archetype gives up too much for and over values the undead creating spells. Giving up a single level of bomb damage for the individual extracts might be worthwhile, but reducing damage to d4's with no other exchange feels harsh. So here were my thoughts on an alternate. A single new ability that replaces a few others rather than bomb damage. The first four spells overlap to an intentionally great degree. The restriction of touch and a single creature makes animate dead less efficient than a Cleric or Wizard of equal level but does open up variant undead. Even as a 5th level extract Create Undead comes in later than for cleric/wizard. No Greater Create Undead since that was for incorporeal undead which was restricted. Temporry Resurrection seemed like a fun idea for a reanimator to play with. What do people think? Reanimate: At 2nd level and every 3 levels after the reanimator adds a specific spell to their alchemist formulae book. When using these spells as extracts, rather than drinking it, the reanimator injects the extract into a single corpse with a range of touch. 2nd Level - Grasping Corpse (1st level extract)
This replaces Poison Resistance +2, Poison Resistance +4, Poison Resistance +6, and Persistent Mutagen. ![]()

That grave monument is spectacular. More totems is very tempting. I see the special promo dungeon dressings from the Dungeon's Deep and Rusty Dragon Inn sets are still in stock.

![]() Pathfinder Battles usually has a different street date from the standard lines, since it is a WizKids product not a Paizo product. Paizo, while owning the IP and licensing it to WizKids with Paizo maintaining design approval, is effectively acting as a retailer for the miniatures. Albeit one with a special relationship. Unfortunately it looks like Paizo received their shipment late. I recall their preview copy was late this time and it looks like that filtered into the commercial shipment. I don't like that my shipment won't arrive before singles go live, but I understand they still have to compete with other retailers and be reasonable in their warehouse logistics. ![]()
