I would also like to see a Tales from the Vast Foundry VTT... I am a bit concerned by the discussion that said Book and PDF sales will help inform the decision as to make this because:
1) IMO it would seem many people are holding off buying the PDF and or Hardcover until they know they have a format to play this on.
2) But you are going the other direction (Buy the Pdfs and Books and we might release the VTT)

HOPEFULLY You can see how these two thought processes are going to cause a rift

The decision to not tell anyone that the VTT was not going to be released until AFTER many of us did buy the books feels a bit like a bad faith decision. But I also understand from a corporate standpoint announcing it before then probably would have meant a loss of sales (that loss of sales might have given you a data point however that probably would have helped you to know that VTT support is a big driver in purchasing decisions)

Anyway all this is to say... I would purchase (and in the past HAVE PURCHASED) every Foundry VTT product you release because I think VTT is the future of TTG and Paizo has been at the Vanguard of this future... and I want to see it continue to grow in a healthy manner.

So does this mean Tales from the Vast will be getting Foundry VTT soon?

Order Marked COMPLETE... Digital Downloads has a Click here to get code... Click here just starts a Recursive back to Click here... (this JUST OCCURED 6PM EST 07/03/25)

weapon mounts... are they one hand per mount (like 1e) or can you install a 2 handed weapon in each mount?

Insert>>> Obligatory Will there be Foundry Support interogative <<< Here!

Now...wait... Gatewalkers is an AP (that i already PAID for... since I have the AP subscription... and have the foundry module for)... why am I going to pay for this as my next adventure subscription??? Is there somewhere to skip getting this (or is this a compleat rewrite that actually has a coherent story that makes sense and appropriate level range??)

For Champions Flash of Grandeur ... it says the the attacker is affected by Revealing Light... since this is a spell with an AREA does this mean Revealing Light hits the attacker and all in that area? or is it the target of Revealing Light changed to simply "The Attacker" ... also does the attacker get a Save? (the Relentless Reaction at Level 9 seems to indicate it would save to determine how long the effects of Revealing Light are on them ... but just want to be sure)

So if I rebuild a rogue to a remastered rogue but I want to keep a class feat from the original CRB that is not reprinted in the remastered rogue, is it still an option? (Ex: minor magic rogue feat)

I started my subscription with 04-12 it says this when I go to that page...

4-13 and 4-14 are out already... why have I not been charged ... and why do I not see them ... (I see that you are PLANNING to charge me for 4-15, 16 and 17 soon)?

(I did purchase the FOUNDRY for 4-13/4-14 ... I realize the PDFS are seperate so I am a bit disappointed to not be getting them yet)

Since the Wizards who live by the Sea are saying they WANT to use AI art and even AI SPEAKERS to DM for us instead of HUMAN GMs ... I much prefer to deal with a company that wants to pay PEOPLE to work for them!!! Thanx for the stand Paizo.

Will this be getting the same treatment as the Abomination Vaults hardcover compendium for Adventure Path Subscription holders? As in: not included in the subscription, but pre-orders will get a free accompanying PDF?

There is obviously a copy paste error... but it LOOKS like you can get a free Abomination Vaults PDF if you are a subscriber AND preorder this LOL!

Hmmm... with the release of VER10 today... I suspect your 11AM release time (wich was 3 hours ago) was revised... so what is the new projected release date?

More importantly ... How soon will Blood Lords be V10 compliant? (and Outlaws ...)

Meh... a few dollars this time will not kill me (Especially since I am a PAID GM Anyway) ... Knowing the pricing structure going forward I think I can plan ... I was surprised the first ones were so CHEAP frankly compared to the work ... 19.99 is a fair price and I need the PDF and Hard Copy anyway to provide the level of Experience my players expect for the money they pay me... The work you guys put into this is GREAT already did a quick walkthrough and VERY happy.

There is a foundry link now… but it appears to have broken my shopping cart broken link

So... what exactly IS A Halfling Bill Band? (I picture the Halfling Bloodbowl team from Games Workshop?)

You get the credit. Folks are raving about the value of subs + VTT.

Well ... then you just sold me on Subscription ... ok wallet prepare to be En-Lightened...

if I start the subscription with Alkenstar and then want the Foundry VTT ... will I get full credit for the PDF ... or no credit since I got it free?

Foundry VTT build... WOW... Just WOW... um amazing JOB that ... and the ... but seriously in the place the thing it DISAPPEARS and the other thing can move... and the OH ... I have been really enjoying Foundry for about 3 months now but this just shows me how much more I need to learn... GREAT work on the conversion.

That ratio seems about half what it should be. Looking at the fame vs APC cost of things, things generally cost a bit more than twice as much ACP as fame. People almost always get 2 fame per game, occasionally missing one. So shouldn't we be getting at least 3, probably 4 ACP per game?

I think this assumes many will have spent their fame earlier on things that they will not have to rebuy using the ACP system... therefore 2 is a fair average. (HMMM... ummm ... we do not have to Rebuy anything we already spent fame on do we?)

And a simple reading of the teleport spell shows that the margin for error even on a ten mile teleport (wich is what you would be casting) is 50ft ... even if you aimed for the center of the bowl you could be 20 ft BELOW it and fall ... or 50 ft off the center and miss landing inside ... and fall... or end up inside the statue (not on the pathway) and fall... any time you are teleporting to a RAISED area it is not a good idea... so as soon as you put the Boss Battle (and the only place you could teleport too with the clues of the pillar of light) over 100ft in the air you have already given the GM an easy way to dissuade the party from teleporting... but preventing a combat spell like Dim Door ... SMH not cool.

I think our GM missed that… we had 11 successes(although he thought it was RITUALS so tod us we had 6 and we had played through with that) … and fought the hand for 4 rounds we were very beat up group by that time but epically pleased (5 players at tenth level)

I'm not sure what you mean. For the Ritual section:

Each PC gets two attempts.

A Success it 1 point, a Crit is 2 points.

If they crit on the first roll they need to pick a different site, and thus a different skill, for the second roll.

To Significantly Weaken the Ritual, you need twice as many points as players. So 5 players would need 10 points, which is achievable if everyone succeeds on all their rolls. Any Crit Successes offset any Failures.

Oh it is Ritual POINTS… not number of rituals… makes more sense

Not sure how a party could teleport strait without knowing where it is… the purpose was to FIND them THEN defeat them… but dim door as a tactical spell in combat is the reason most people want it.

So... am I correct in assuming the only way a party of 5 30cp high tier can get ten successes is 10 crits?

Other than a big slap in the face to tenth level characters who cam finally cast dim door (or maybe spent 20ACP and 980 gold to buy a cape of the montebanc) what purpose is served by having teleport effects specifically called out as not working on this module? (And 2-24)?

So ... alot of this talk has been about high level and home games... there is an actual AP out were 3rd level characters who have basically invested ALL thier loot to get a +1 weapon for thier two Martial characters (no backup weapons yet because even 1gp is scarce) and there are two creatures in a room that can basically DESTROY A WEAPON in one action... (3 broken weapons in the first round of combat) now to be fair there were a lot of weapons we had collected prior to the fight (10 tridents)... and the barbarian pick fighter easily switched... (albeit with a huge reduction in damage output) the twin feinting rogue (thief racket) was pretty hard up... (we survived the fight and the last two encounters using trident and improvised clubs... no big deal just increased the challenge...now... when the level was finished we went back to town sold all the loot and leveled up... the total value of sold loot was 208 gp (52 per party member)... putting us at about 96 gp per party member total treasure since the start of the module about avg for 4th level characters... the barbarian spent 4.5 g
p to buy a new pick and transfer the rune and the rogue did the same to buy two weapons and transfer the rune... if our GM had said we need to spend 35 gp each to buy 3 new items. The rogue essentially would have played that entire level with NO TREASURE and a net 18gp loss... this did not seem fair...
Part of the thought was the fairness issue... the other part was that the critter that broke the item just used his hands (no acid just tore the weapon apart so the rune should still be intact on the weapon)

BtW ... this same critter also appeared at 2nd level luckily we had no runes yet...

Short answer... no it is not PvP.

1) We want one-handed weapon characters who keep a free hand to be able to use their worn tools, and that includes Battle Medicine. Last night, Jared Thaler cleverly noticed the same thing that the design team had noticed just a bit earlier ourselves that this applies to more than just healer's tools so was a bit bigger than it seemed.

Credit should go to GM The Gnome for bringing it to my attention.

A cave gnome pops its head out of his cave and looks around... oh no attention ...

BtW... a small side issue... on ALL the errata... you used to mark the LATEST errata in red to make it clear what was an actual change and what was actually changed 7 months ago... please restore that protocol it is VERY helpfull

And how does this affect all the Medic feats... wich all ALSO seem to need one hand

a lot of experienced DMs are also surprised/annoyed to find that they're not allowed to mess with the adventure: no changing the Dcs, no adding an extra monster, etc.

You mean I cant add a Balrog to the end of The Commencement? ... Dagnabit

Does taking the Blessed One Dedicatuon mean you have a patron diety (even if you may not realize it)? And thus prevent you from using Godless Healing?

Is like a few other animal companion boons the answer is nope so either don’t let it die... or be prepared to resurrect it alot

With good crafting an adamant shield is just fine... the ability to break hardness is awesome... the fact that as a weapon shields are pretty awesome even as main weapons... but weapons themselves cannot be made of adamantine until 3 levels later seems strange...

looking at the rules for Adamantine it seems confuzling... an Adamantine SHIELD is level 8 ... and can be used as a weapon ALSO as well as defend very well... (2 great uses for 440GP)... an Adamantine WEAPON however is Tier 11 but only has ONE use... Offense (for 1550GP)/// (assuming of course you can unlock finding that chunk of Adamantine somewhere) any thoughts on this?

:) Yeah I guess is no need to have it outside of OPF... (although I think the algorithm for having it one part and not in others is probably crazier than just leaving it on everywhere and may be part of the issue) hence this post in WebsiteFeedback... would be good if this part of the website worked...

all good ideas thanx... I usually try to prep a bit ahead (even going so far as to have the link open a few days in advance and posting in warhorn to remember to have macros ready and tested...) but I HAVE had last minute drops... last minute adds and of course the entire ... Roll20 drops out or Discord issues... I think we can also assume that a BREAK does not count towards the 5 hours... I think I am ready ... again thanx for all the good input.

I am a 4 star GM with one Nova... but as you can see... only 3 stars and no novas show up in the forum... why? (edit... NOW no stars showing LOL)

for EVERYTHING on Roll20 you have no idea who is using Macros... who is using a sheet and who thought he could play roll 20 by typing everything in... (I prep macros AND sheets) and again they may be experienced in Pathfinder (they better be if they want to live) but I have found the experience level in ROLL20 (while GROWING by leaps and bounds) still can be hit and miss (had someone rolling everything by typing in a game of Eyes of the Ten the other day... long time Pathfinder but first time on Roll20)... anyway my point was just as the game has adapted on many things these last 10 years... the use of Roll20/Fantasy Grounds may mean revisiting certain restrictions...

because (...as I stated in the OP... games that used to take 4 hours take 5)(games that normally take 1 hour like quests now take 2) the time limit originally assumed a location where things like BANDWITH and unexpected disconnects and issues with tokens not seeing light and discord reverbs etc... did not cause the game to play slower...
I have noticed that MOST GMs who do Roll20 schedule more time for every game (I certainly do)
... on a side note any idea why my stars in the forum are not correct? (I have 4 now is why I am prepping BoneKeep)

Ok... SO BoneKeep has a strict Time limit (5hrs) the constraints of Roll20 makes the game a little slower (most 4 hour sessions take 5 hours now) is this strict limit STILL in effect for BoneKeep?

Perhaps on a small island a very old man with the Initials

so... the boon... what exactly does it do? does this now make all the named wayfinders common (instead of uncommon)? Like the Shining and Vanishing? or does it open up unknown future wayfinders... right now I thought ALL pathfinders already had access to common wayfinders am I mistaken?

I would be thankful for any tidbits of information your study into my families past would yield... All I have been able to find in studying my Death Cursed dreams show horrible examples of how Pharasma has cursed my Heritage time and Again. Hence my spurning her advances with my pursuit of the Eoxian Perfection. Take your metallic implants if you wish they too will eventually lead you down the path of undeath. If you would like more information I could also offer you some "undeath insurance" to allow you to experience the FULL Eoxian replacement plan.
