I am envisioning trying to make a blind character who will wear a cloth or something over his eyes. I don't want to make him completely inept. I would like to give him some sort of ability to see through a pet or possible something like Neo in the matrix where he could still see somewhat even through the bandages over his eyes.

I was leaning toward a casting class to help make up for the fact that I cannot see the world like a normal person, and therefore I don't think I would want to move around in combat as much, however that is not a deal breaker.

So I am really looking for classes and feat/trait combos to help make something like this work. So far I have started with a black-blooded Oracle with the Mystery of bones which is what got me thinking about the whole blind thing. Kinda like a tormented soul being punished for something he did while alive and now he is being punished for it by not being able to completely travel to the after-world and being stuck trying to fix/pay for the wrong he did while he was alive.

Also, please note this is for a Path Finder Society, so please keep it to the legal items available in the PFS.


I have been looking around a lot for whip magus builds and a lot of the ones I have seen people are taking feats at level 1 which have a required +1 BAB. I am making this for PFS, so I cannot use any house rules on building this. I know a lot of people have been trying to make this work. Does anyone have a good build for a whip based magus? If not feel free to help with what I have started below. So far the only way to get a whip proficiency at level 1 is to use the Kensai, so let me know what you think.

Here is what I have so far:

Elf Kensai Magus
Alternate racial trait (Whip) - I lose Adaptability for this

Str 10
Dex 18 (16+2)
Con 14
Int 15
Wis 8
Cha 10

Traits (I am open to change here)
Magical lineage (shocking grasp)
Social trait (something that gives me diplomacy or sense motive)

Feats
1 Weapon Finesse
Kensai Ft: Weapon Focus (Whip)
3 Whip Mastery
5 ???

My main goal is to have a reach based weapon. I would like to be threatening with it. With my low damage in this class if I could try to use the whip to trip or disarm I think I might try to focus on that.

Also, as I mentioned this is for society play, so it will never be leveled past 12.

Any help is greatly appreciated.


I am playing in PFS organized play and I need an item to help reduce the weight of my money. What are some good items?


So I am making my first caster ever and I decided on a witch. I am curious about people's thoughts on which witch patrons people recommend. This is for PFS play, so please keep that in mind when responding.

Also, one other quick question I had was about the hexes. Do I get to cast those as many times as I want? I saw the healing had a limit of one per character for every 24 hours, but I didn't see anything else being limited.


I know I am going to feel stupid as soon as someone answers this, but what the heck does "gish" mean? I see it all over and I just can't figure it out.


I am new to gaming and this is all new to me. I have recently started playing in PFS events and I want to build a magus. I heard as I was leaving that there is a magus build that has a reach weapon, (or maybe the reach effect was through a feat?) but it had a reach attack and it was somehow avoiding their AC and making touch attacks while doing this. I don't have a clue what weapon, stats, feats, or archetype to use.

I have noticed that you all are very helpful on here. Could you please help me create this type of magus please. Ability stats, feats, and any other information you can give me will be greatly appreciated.


I am building a human archer with a fighter base and I was curious of any reasons why I wouldn't want to wear heavy armor sense I am proficient in it with my fighter base already. I understand it will hurt me on some skill checks such as climbing, swimming, ect but being a ranged damage dealer are there any other "cons" to wearing heavy armor? I am a new player, so I am just learning the rules.
