I liked him he had great hair, managed to paint him really well, but it looks like the goblin took his place in the art we have seen as well as the GTM vid

love the new look, but am I the only one who cant find the messageboards without googling them and using a direct link.
I am using chrome running privacy badger and uBlock origin as an ad blocker on a win8.1 laptop. I would think it would be under the community tab but this is what I see when I click that tab.

DM looking for work would like a weekly game Saturday would be sweet but I have a pretty open schedule. would like to start at the library or something before having at the house after I am sure everyone is cool.

I going to try and check this but other I can be reached by

colored bases its the small things that prove ingenuity

Building a group for a sunday weekly game. the campaign will be a homebrew.

email-ADT.reborn@gmail.com

I wanted to see if you guys are doing a one shot for Halloween.
I build up one up where the party wakes up as undead in the control of a litch but have broken his hold over there mind because the litch is losing his. Around the dungeon are full clues of who they were and how they got there. The party’s actions will either kill all the various evil experiments or fight for control over the experiments. However it ends will have positive affects for the actual campaign.

So when a DM/GM deals with anything from assassins and paladins to what is and, is not ok do in the Pathfinder Society there is a lot of argument over what is good, evil, lawful, or chaotic. I believe the problem stems from a lake of vocabulary to complete and irrefutably describe these parts of the aliment systems, so every game, party, and/or DM/GM sees it differently. This is a good thing over all because it can add a dynamic to the game; however, it can sometimes derail the game in to an argument about what is within the paladin code or other such thing.

So for the purpose of conversation and sharing of notes I am asking you how you define each of the aliment poles.
Do you use a black and white type system or a scaling one?
Do you focus on the north and south more than the east and west poles?
What would you call an extremes or moderate actions?

For me and my group it breaks down this way:
We use a scaling system and try to focus on the law vs. chaos more than good vs. evil because I feel it makes a better story

Good: positive external actions, taking a mission because of the goal
So an extreme good would be like socialism so everyone could act for each other.

Evil: positive internal actions, taking a mission because of the award
So an extreme evil would be like apocalypse preparation because you are ensuring your own safety and well-being

Lawful: predictable actions, any code to live by personal or external
So an extreme would be like a robot because it is a complete lake of choice

Chaotic: spontaneous actions, acting because you have the freedom to do so or because you do no
So an extreme would be like freeing yourself or others from slavery to go from no choice to complete choice would be chaotic

At the end of the day good vs evil comes down to numbers you make an action the number of people it helps vs the number of people it hurts and which side you fall on makes it a good or evil action. With law vs chaos it comes down to could you predict yes: lawful, no: chaotic. Now yes some actions are more this then that and some are both and that’s how I get neural not every action has the capability to move you across the aliment poles.

So if we look at some of our favorite Aliment augments
Robin Hood vs. the tax collector: the tax collector would charge random taxes at random from non-predictable amounts making him Chaotic regardless of the fact he works for the government a lawful institution. If Robin Hood came around and robed the tax collector every time he taxes the people he would be ultimately be lawful even though he is breaking the law he is following his own.

One that is more compacted
The paladin protecting the king from the assassin: Now the assassin has a contract so his action is lawful (internal). The paladin has been order to protect the king for an award so his actions are lawful (external). But let’s say the king is genuinely bad for the kingdom, this would make the paladin’s action evil for hurting more people than he is helping and the assassin good for killing him. However at the end of the night if the assassin kills the paladin to make his job easier the whole night was evil for the assassin because the paladin would probably do more good the king would have evil. If the Paladin killed the assassin at the end of the night the opposite is true killing the assassin would probably more “good” than saving the king was evil.

But like I said this is only how it would be looked at in my game.

PS lets be civil :)

i think its 7.00usd at both itunes and google

Honed Attack (Combat)
Prerequisites: Dex 13, BAB must be lower than HD.
Benefit: You can choose to take a –1 penalty on all melee damage rolls penalty to gain a +2 bonus on all on all melee attack rolls. This bonus to attacks is increased by half (+50%) if you are making an attack with a light one-handed weapon with nothing in your other hand. This bonus to attack is halved (–50%) if you are making an attack with an off-hand weapon or secondary natural weapon. When your base level 4, and every 4 level thereafter, the penalty increases by –1 and the bonus to attack increases by +2. You must choose to use this feat before making an attack roll, and its effects last until your next turn. The bonus attacks does not apply to touch attacks or effects that do not deal hit point damage

1.Would you use it
2.Can you brake it/does it brake the game
3.Would this be a must have feat for every one who can use it
4.Any other notes

have you ever been in the middle of making a character, think "oh ya this guy is so cool and original". only to watch a movie or play a game to realize you were making one of its characters.

just realized i was making Reddick.... right down to the freaky eyes.. so aggravated

so in the stereotypical group
wizard vs witch

blasting: wizard. you cant beat the flexibility and section of the wizard but the witch dose get enough to count

party support and buffs: witch. healing... one word wizard can not do it with his spell list every thing else is more or less the same hast for heroism and so forth

control: witch. more save or suck spells and abilities by far the same advantage the wizard has in blasting

but these might be my opinion your game might run differentially then mine which is probably true however one more thing to look at what if you took a witch and wizard striped then as naked as the day there where born and set there book or familiar on fire till there was nothing but ash in the morning the witch will be pissed but preparing her spells, because the witch has quite a few ways to have her familiar back with out having to hope the DM is not going to be a ass when she cast wish in hopes to get his spell book back or pay out the butt for every spell he wants back. it only cost 1000gp and the witch has all her spells back(with a side note of her pet looking different).

amazing art

Tread add Go to MCA IV.
p-class alchemist
s-class sorcerer

Blood Alchemist:
The idea behind this is a sorcerer that never got the rest of the super cool sorcerer spells and powers just the unending feeling that something more powerful lies in their blood.
(i have no ability to make ability names so)
lvl1 bomb:deal one die step down so d6s normally to d4s instead

lvl1 bloodline: the blood alchemist picks a blood line just like a sorcerer

lvl1 blood imprinted mutagen: whenever they use a mutagen or a cognatogen they also take a -2 to con with the normal penalty gain bloodline powers determined by the bloodline he picked and his level his alchemist level counts as his sorcerer level for all ability and replace cha mod with int mod (the alchemist can never chose to increase con with his mutagen)
this replaces poison resistance

lvl2 discoveries from blood: the alchemist may take any bloodline feat as a discovery

lvl6 power of blood:the blood alchemist can spill his own blood in order to get what he needs as a standard action he can willing take 1 con damage to make 2 bombs or as a full round action he can take 1 point of con damage per spell lvl to make one extract. unlike normale con damage it can be healed after one full day of rest or long term care)
this replace swift poisoning and bomb damage

One thing I love about the tabletop game that I have never seen in a mmo is that your gear doesn't really have a whole lot to do with your PC. I mean yes, it's hard to power attack without your trusty long sword, but i hate that Mr.Robo dictates what I would be doing for my next 5-10 hrs on WOW. All for arbitrary higher numbers, I could not even tell you the differences that the next +25 to my mastery meant to my ability to heal but i know if i did not have it then i would not be able to do raids or any other end game stuff.
I know there are all kinds of +s to this and that in pathfinder but the numbers we use are meaningful +1 moral bonus from inspire courage gives me a 5% better chance to hit the kobold and that same +1 changes my average damage to my short sword from 3.5 to 4.5 and that all every calculable with out a super computer

I all so fill like keeping it this way will make the loot-able pc thing much more fun, if having my body looted meant losing 5+hrs of the same crap raid just to get the one drop so that I do another raid for 5+ hrs to move up and some one looted of me I would quit right there no questions asked.

(wow , I am up to one rant a day ....)

i know we know only the tip of the iceberg of game play but people always have idea of what they will play and what their goals are well before hand
so i ask you what will try and make once the game comes out or in early enrollment.

Me, I thinking bard power equal or greater then the number of people around me and i plane on a lot of traveling on craven.
at lest till the alchemist becomes playable then all bets are off so going to be a alchemist.

I wander if i could fulfill a "settlement" in game terms with lets say a Gyps' (not sure how to spell that) Caravan. sure not when it release but could we see a moving "Settlement" I thought the idea was cool. I would so have a circus.

After reading the newest blogs , i don't feel like this will be pathfinder at all. i understand that" not all things from the table top move to a MMO well". You can only add so many spices to soup be for it becomes chili.
I understand the skill and that's not so bad i guess but the way leveling is described it sounds like the leveling from Elder Scrolls Skyrim with the added bonus of Vanilla WOW; where i have to find a trainer and spend all my gold on training. Leaving PFO being made with the idea of having no "end game" but will have the "end game" of not having to spend all your money on hp and class ability's and finely being able to use my gold on some player goal. i would like maintaining my class to be an after thought. i know what i get as a level 5 rouge in PFRPG, i don't want to save up after killing X things with sneak attack and save up 50gp to be a level 5 rouge in PFO.

a group of 5 (a monk, ranger, barbarian, cavalier(hound master all lvl2) and inquisitor) fought a necrophidius as a BBG at the end of a smallish dungeon.So they where pretty bet up. I had planned one two or there going down if it wasn't a complete TPK. this how it brook down

round 1:2 pc bet the NEC. 1 did some damage NEC. d.o.d. and dazed every one but the cavalier and the monk for 2 rounds

round 2:monk and cavalier did some damage the NEC. paralysis the monk

round 3:cavalier did some damage NEC. missed

round 4:players wake up cavalier dose some damage and ranger power attacks for the kill

I was said face

but was this a "dies are dies" moment or do I need to add more presser on my 5 man party after being able to take a necrophidius after a small dungeon full of cr1-3 undead

The rules are simple you be a mostly complete person. i wont have any disembody voices floating around. if your going to fight do so out side. other then that come have a drink, eat, talk, boast, do what ever you adventurers do

This is a place to roll play and advertise your pc you would like to play in a pbp.post as often as you would in a game and show off your role playing skills. have some why for a dm to reach you in your pc's profile. have fun

So I found this one (mapgen) but I but was hoping to find one with hexes or just a bigger maps with more options, So I ask you all if your luck was better.

Tumor familiar reads
- Tumor Familiar (Ex): The alchemist creates a Diminutive or Tiny tumor on his body, usually on his back or stomach. As a standard action, the alchemist can have the tumor detach itself from his body as a separate creature vaguely resembling a kind of animal suitable for a familiar (bat, cat, and so on) and move about as if it were an independent creature.-
Improved familiar reads
-Improved Familiar ...FamiliarThis feat allows you to acquire a powerful familiar, but only when you could normally acquire a new familiar. ... Prerequisites: Ability to acquire a new familiar, compatible alignment, sufficiently high level (see below). Benefit: When choosing a familiar, the creatures listed below are also available to you. You may choose a familiar with an alignment up to one step away-

my BBG needs a higher level of creepy

so the deal is that i would like to do some short games to test diffident pc builds/ get way from dming all the time, so i was hoping we could take turns

in hopes that some one likes the idea of such a thing i have down loaded maptool but have know idea how to use it

i have a some what open time block during the week for playing but live in Germany

please message for more info if

just to keep my self fresh on the best evil tricks, i thought we could share.

my party is about to gain a keel-boat with an alchemic engine; a rare but fast boat that will help them.However, sailing in it will trigger a daily haunt that i built using summon monster 5, making a fiendish killer whale attack them each day at sun down. the only way to destroy the haunt is to kill the whale with out the using the nice harpoon on the boat

i was just inspired see how many of us where the US military
and if it will not get you in trouble where you are stationed at {in case i pcs soon :) }

as for me Bamberg Germany

how long dose this spell last?

the Duration instantaneous in the pathfinder reference doc is this a typo?
the doc

i am a English speaking dm looking for players for sunday games
you can get a hold of me here or adt_magic@live.com

I placed an order on June 23, 2011 and have not received anything as of yet. While I realize that shipping to APO addresses takes longer, I was hoping to find out an estimated time of arrival. Thank you for your services.

during the most resent lull between jobs, the your group has made up your minds to take a small brake from sleeping in caves or on wet ground and to try and find a inn or hunting loge you all could afford

looking at the map, Umbriere Lunas made note that her dear uncle Max had owned a large inn named "The Three Rodes" that seared a rest point for those going aether around or in to the near by moutons. after some peddling from Umbriere Lunas the group made its way to the inn

out side the inn it was clear the ground had seen many coming and goings from the look of wear on the "parking lot" like area in front where caravans had formed a haft cycle in front. the inn it self look to be made out of a old fort with large logs making up its wall and places for archers to take point on its four corners. but for some reason at this point it looked all most empty.

as you all enter you a welcomed by a large fat man with a red beard and fadedly hair who if not for his high would look much like a dwarf.

Boris(the inn keeper):well well welcome to the three rodes how may i help you this fine day please by all means sit have a drink and some food,then please stay and rest.

right guys so this is my first time doing this so be kind

we will casrters a such
step1 i will allow the core rule book, the advanced players guide, and bestiary1&2
step2 25 point buy
step3 i will allow these races all 7base races puse assimar(note assimar has a -2 to con as well), drow base kind, tiefling
step4 all classes are go to go if they are in the above books
step5 all feasts and skills are the same as classes
step6 alignment is not a box on a graft you pick, you act it
step7 equipment you start with10500 note though poisons in this world are not evil and are seen as a way to protected ones self the cost for all poisons are dived by 10

all things are up for debate if you would like to use some thing from a different book so dont be afraid to ask

i forgot lvl 5

Egg

(note* for all other evolutions treat as Quadruped. ie.mount)

your thoughts?

looking to play test one of the 3 new classes in the form of pvp

the book says (Mount (Ex): An eidolon is properly skilled and formed
to serve as a combat-trained mount. The eidolon must
be at least one size category larger than its rider. This
evolution is only available to eidolons of the quadruped
and serpentine base forms.)
i dont think it dose but if it dose will it need an exotic one

.............this may have worked better if i spoke German ...............

i dont know if this is the right messagebord
but i want to know how the post-by-post thing worked and how do the games start?

i think its would be ever reasonable instead of giving a lvl 1 pc 1000gp
items as they start off, to let the gunslinger class abilities also apply to crossbows. this would make the class more class open to pcs whose dm dont allow guns in there games or have low gold games and could not pay for the ammo

hand crossbow = pistol

light crossbow and heavy crossbow = musket

ha ha i was first on this message board

ok but really what do people think of the way guns are handled

not looking for how much you hate the idea of them

i want your opinion on this little guy as well as a better name (i thing the name is a little long winded) also i would put this guy at cr1 or 2 your thoughts?

-Telepathic Link (Su) An Animated Bag of Devouring cannot speak, but the process of creating one links it telepathically with its creator out to a distance of 1,500 feet.

-Magic Mouth : An Animated Bag of Devouring is treated as a large creature for the purpose of their swallow whole and bite abilities. A swallowed creature cannot cut itself free nor does it take damage as it would normally. Instead if the creature is not freed in 1d6 rounds it succombs to the normal affects of a Animated Bag of Devouring. A Bag of Devouring cannot make a bite attacks without giving a swallowed creature an opprotunity to escape by making a grapple check.

Although it seems to be the work of a mad man, the Animated Bag of Devouring was most likely left to a clever one. The Animated Bag of Devouring works great as a spy and a guardian of treasure and if given something worth its time; the bag is often easy enough to work with. Although fairly fragile and slow in combat; a thrown Animated Bag of Devouring is as good as the gnashing jaws of any other charging beast, as many adventurers will contest. All of these boons; as well as the ones from any normal Bag of Devouring leaves it a fond pick as the familiar of some wizards.

i have more or less made my own Cthulhu fill world for pathfinder. but because an human and miss stuff. just wanted to here if you all had any ideas about some thing like this or any experience.

just ask if you need more details about what i done.

so one my groups first try at pathfinder during the time they all made the characters player brings up that no one picked a cleric wizard fighter or rouge. we all that was weird and went on....

manly because i want to here you argue and i have seen 2 other message boards talk about some thing like this; my question to you is do you thank a party need a healer caster tank and skill-in-a-box to be a successful party in any situation?

i would like to see this happen as a more close combat alchemist archetype over a whole new class. to emphasize this point i am working on it my self in hopes of it being picked up. i will post it hear when i am done if you have any suggestions or would just like to say you like the idea i will appreciate it greatly

note: following the theme of archetypes i will most likely change the mutagen and bombs adding discoveries

the paizo message boards are great for finding rulings and help on characters but what is the best loot you found on the message boards
mine was from a wile back. i wish i cloud claim this

Gloves of the Deceiver
Aura Moderate Illusion; CL 7th
Slot hands; Price 52,400 (+1), 58,400 (+2), 68,400 (+3), 82,400 (+4), 102,400 (+5) gp; Weight --

Description
These normal looking gloves allow the user to seemingly conjure any sort of weapon into the palm of their hand. In fact, however, these gloves allow the user to create a weapon made of illusionary shadow, as in the spell Shadow Conjuration. The wearer can say the command word to create any type of weapon as a standard action (if the user conjures a weapon that he is not proficient with, normal penalties for wielding it applies). The weapon has a +1 through +5 Enchantment bonus depending on the level of gloves used. The weapon created with these gloves may be wielded like a normal weapon of its type, only upon every successful attack the recipient makes a Will save (DC 20) to disbelieve the illusion (objects always succeed). If the target succeeds on their save they only take one fifth (20%) of the damage the weapon would have normally caused, the conjured weapon then dissipates.

Construction
Requirements Craft Wondrous Item, Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Shadow Conjuration; Cost 26,200 (+1), 29,200 (+2), 34,200 (+3), 41,200 (+4), 51,200 (+5) gp

so this is kinda a follow up question to a earlier post "pathfinder+3.5= dm's mess" i want to know some of your successful way of getting your players to switch from 3.5 to pathfinder you advice will very helpful .thank you

just wanted to know if any one let pathfinder and .5 mix in their games

pc puzzles that involve a whole party but don't require any one class; that could fit in one room (of any size or scape)i would prefer open ended answers
