Combat Maneuvers are like full attacks now. Rarely ever worth it. With so little to hit bonuses in the game, Maneuvers will pretty much not be used out of the occasional and rare situation where a character has the appropriate weapon and feat, and is going against an appropriately lower CR and flatfooted enemy. Until more content comes out, starfinder combat is alot of standing around in the open or behind low crates, and shooting each other once per round until those 50/50 chances to hit manage to down an enemy. rinse and repeat.

How can you feel different than "oh, a mobile martial is finally exactly as effective as someone who just stands there"?

Well, I am just worried that the final result of said changes will result in martial classes being half as effective as they were in pathfinder (where they were pretty much surpassed by casters in all ways). I also never really factored in mobile vs stationary martial characters, because even my mobile characters had the option to stand next to the enemy and beat face if a single attack per round just wasn't cutting it.

Hi, I placed this order for the Emerald Spire Map Pack on Monday, August 1st, and would like to know if the package has been shipped yet?

Like the title asked, Does your group use music while playing? What kind of music will you be using for Hell's Vengeance? Hoping to get some idea's of what to play for my group.

All basic races plus tiefling. One of the iconics is a dhampir, other is a duergar.

My first impression is that this PG is not as good as the Hell's Rebels one.

I really liked the way they separed traits from "Reasons to be at the right place at the time the adventure begins" on Hell's Rebels. Campaign traits should give you a role to play on the campaign, not just a reason to gather with the other characters. The Curse of the Crimson Thrones tratis are just it, reasons to be at the right place but without a deep connection to the campaign.

The traits from Hell's Rebels give you a role to play, a secret to revel, a person to find. A more deep conection with the campaign. But how to gather the players? Well, The Hell's Rebels Player's Guide have the "Reasons to Protest" section and that work really well.

The Hell's Vengeance trait are a mix of campaing role and character themes, but they don't explain why the character are together.

Thanks a Bunch!

Does anyone know what races are allowed in Hell's Vengeance? I figured someone may have been able to download it.

Player's Guide is up!
