Utii's page

Where is that listed
would like some quotes

Just ran it but please clarify how many actions you have in the night and what counts for the actions?

Quicken true strike + 19 grapple = +19 when it makes a grapple check and then it can still do feeding tentacles

Lets begin
I implore the leadership of organized play to either delete or update dealing with afflictions in guide 9.1 and here is why:

On page 16. you do step 8
"If the character gained an ongoing condition like a curse or disease during the scenario, the player should note that here as well. See Dealing with Afflictions below for more information on noting conditions gained and cleared during a scenario or after its conclusion."

Fine that leads us to Dealing with Afflictions

"At the end of a scenario, a PC might have been afflicted
with any number of possible afflictions, such as blindness,
a curse, deafness, a disease, or a poison..."

Yes a pathfinder can be afflicted by many conditions

"It is important that conditions be written legibly
so the player and subsequent GMs can understand them."

Okey meaning that afflictions, such as blindness,
a curse, deafness, a disease, or a poison might transfer from senario to senario.

"Note: Any affliction that would result in an unplayable
character must be resolved at the table once the game
ends as explained in Chapter 4 of this document. If the
character cannot resolve an affliction that would render
her unplayable, mark the character as dead."

okey so the next part must tell us what an unplayable character is

Page 19. CONDITIONS, DEATH, AND EXPENDABLES

"Conditions: Unless noted otherwise, all conditions
gained during an adventure, including death, must be
resolved before the end of the session. A condition in this
context includes an affliction, a negative effect, or an effect
that is intended to mechanically affect your character in
a negative way. If such a condition isn’t resolved by the
end of play, the character should be reported as dead and
becomes unplayable."

So if you get a condition that is not: "However, a few conditions need not be resolved by the end of play, including permanent
negative levels, ability drain that does not reduce an
ability score to 0, becoming a fallen member of a class
that requires an atonement spell to regain class features
or spellcasting abilities, and conditions that impose no
mechanical effect."
then you are dead/unplayable so why shall i note: curse or disease during the scenario, the player should note that here as well. You become unplayable.

Leadership could just cut the whole affliction out and state that if you do not resolve all conditions except these few (page 19) then the character shall be reported dead/unplayable.

i would hope they lifted to strict rule so disease or blinded/deafend could go from senario to senario.

There must be an error Paizo says it has been errataed but it hasn't ...

if the spell appear on the wizard/sorcerer spell list it is not a non-wizard spell so you can remove some of them from the list

My name was misspelled :( Morten Frederiksen

will mist mail be 100% sale?

I know it says clarification on the document, but as some of the text is change. Can I count this an Errata due to rebuild/change from the PFS guide volume 7?

So I have some questions about this well ritten Senario.
First: the first Boon has three paragrafs one for turning yourself and one for turning a new character and one for a Kineticist. Do you pay Prestige for the last paragraf or gain access to that for all kineticist or only the one applied with this chronicle sheet?

Second: making a new char with the boon would it imply that you bring a copy of that chronicle sheet with the neew character?

Third: The Grand Lodge faction wants to learn of the missing agents and you can get info on Grave Threader twice either from the Genie or Master of Spells but only the Genie count at the end as a success should master of spells deal count toward the success??

I dont get that this ask Scarab sages wich NPC they chose, Badru or Saruna as they didn't have the choice only Dark Archive had.

What are ghouls cursed claws???

The Remnants of the Beast boon has not been fixed yet, shall i just tell my players it is a one time use or?

Threatened Squares

You threaten all squares into which you can make a melee attack, even when it is not your turn. Generally, that means everything in all squares adjacent to your space (including diagonally). An enemy that takes certain actions while in a threatened square provokes an attack of opportunity from you. If you're unarmed, you don't normally threaten any squares and thus can't make attacks of opportunity.

Woah that sounds so cool. I was traped in the "my character wants to play the faction line" and this will make sure i can play any character . That is amazing I'm looking forward to see more players cooperate and play their character for the character and not for the rules/game.

Thumbs UP!

Can anyone tell me how to calculate the blast/wild talent Spell-level and DC so i can understand.

Thanks for the quick reply

Do the players have 3 days on the island or only 1?

it is stated after the breifing it takes them 2 days to reach the pillars and the breifing also tells them they will leave in the morning.

which leaves me to belive that they only have 1 day on the island but then how do they have enough time to get back to the ship if the travel time is 2 days?

When do you send the table link?

Can i Play???

Can a GM run the whole thing (only PFS content) and still get the 4 chronicle sheet if he applies it to 1 character?

1: they just clearify for you what grab does, it should not stack.

2a: Yes, you can full attack and make grapple checks after each attack that hits, if one of these attacks hit and confirm grapple opponent is grappled. you can choose to take -20 on CMB to negate the grapple condition and only use that natural to hold the foe.

2b: yes but remember you then need to roll attacks and you have the grappled condition.

2c: Yes but either you let go of your first grappled foe or take a -20 on the CMB check.

3a: by RAW you can maintain in the first round if you use a standard action to grapple and move action to maintain, but some GM's find this OP and does not allow it in their game.

3b: greater grapple says that if you fail the first attempt but succed to second you still maintain the grapple. With rapid grappler now you can do 3 grapple checks to either Move, Damage, Pin or Tie-up.
as long as you dont fail both grapple checks you are still the grappler.

4: you need Improved Unarmed strike by RAW.

5: go to d20pfsrd.com and search for grapple there is a little flowchart

Question 1
Table 1-8 says that the shaman should get wandering hex in level 14, but in wandering hex it states, that you get one hex in level 6 and the other in level 12.

if you follow the text of the class a shaman gains nothing in lvl 13 to 15.

is this a mistake?

Question 2

under shamans familiar it states: "A shaman can select any familiar
available to wizards, although her familiar is augmented
by the power of her chosen spirit (as noted below). Once
selected, the familiar cannot be changed."

Are you allowed to take improved familiar?

"If a familiar is lost or dies, it can be replaced after
24 hours through a special ritual that costs 500 gp per
shaman level. The ritual takes 8 hours to complete."

replaced fammiliar must then be of same type?

Thanks

Here is a guide to make you a level 7 hellknight with the retraining rules.
(Maybe you should fix the retraining rules?)

Level your charakter(with full Bab) to lvl 5.
take one level hellknight prestige class as you qualify for.

now use the retraining level rule -1 level with full Bab then you still qualify for hellknight so take the new level as hellknight so you are now lvl 4 full bab and 2 hellknight.
repeat untill you now are lvl 6 hellknight lvl 0 other class.

this will cost you some PP in PFS and some gold but it is worth it.

can any of you find a statement that this is not legal?

Yora can you state your answer by RAW?

My question is formed from reading many class archetypes.

I would like to know if there is a difference in normal fog or magically made fog? and normal difficult terrain and magically made difficult terrain?

my arguments that there is a difference:

Look at these abilities:

Tempest Druid - Inner Sea Magic
Eyes of the Storm (Ex)
At 4th level, a tempest druid can see through 10 feet of magical fog, mist, gas, wind, rain, or similar inclement weather conditions, ignoring any concealment it might grant. This distance increases by 5 feet for every 4 levels beyond 4th. This ability replaces resist nature’s lure.

and

Oracle Waves - APG
Water Sight (Su): You can see through fog and mist without penalty as long as there is enough light to allow you to see normally. At 7th level, you can use any calm pool of water at least 1 foot in diameter as a scrying device, as if using the scrying spell. At 15th level, this functions like greater scrying. You can use the scrying abilities for a number of rounds per day equal to your oracle level, but these rounds do not need to be consecutive.

and

Master of Storms - Path of Prestige
Seasight (Su)
At 2nd level, a Master of Storms can see through fog, smoke, and other obscuring vapors as if they did not exist. This ability functions underwater as well, allowing the Master of Storms to see through thick silt and other aquatic precipitates.

and

Goz Mask(item) - Inner Sea World Guide
A goz mask allows you to see through fog, smoke, and other obscuring vapors as if they did not exist (this ability functions underwater as well, allowing the wearer to see through thick silt and other aquatic precipitates).

This states that only the druid can see through obscuring mist, fog cloud and so on. Everybody can see through fog from natural sources.

Now the terrain question:

Druid - Core
Woodland Stride (Ex)
Starting at 2nd level, a druid may move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at her normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment. Thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that have been magically manipulated to impede motion, however, still affect her.

and

Ranger - Core
Woodland Stride (Ex)
Starting at 7th level, a ranger may move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at his normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment.
Thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that are enchanted or magically manipulated to impede motion, however, still affect him.

and

Wild Shadow - ARG
Unfettered Step (Ex)
At 7th level, a wild shadow's woodland stride class feature functions in any difficult terrain within any of his favored terrains, even in areas that are enchanted or magically manipulated to impede motion.

So the spell Feather Step ignores normal and/or magically difficult terrain?

Okey i have looked around and found this:
From Swim skill (If you fail by 5 or more, you go underwater.)

From Water Enviroment (Very deep water is not only generally pitch black, posing a navigational hazard, but worse, deals water pressure damage of 1d6 points per minute for every 100 feet the character is below the surface. A successful Fortitude save (DC 15, +1 for each previous check) means the diver takes no damage in that minute.)

From Underwater Combat (Creatures have firm footing when walking along the bottom, braced against a ship's hull, or the like. A creature can only walk along the bottom if it wears or carries enough gear to weigh itself down: at least 16 pounds for Medium creatures, twice that for each size category larger than Medium, and half that for each size category smaller than Medium.)

But where does anything state if you sink? and at what speed with what gear ?

Carbon D. Metric
1) the stone cube is hollow
2) is spellcraft not considert Proof?
4) if you only dispell the light there will still be normal light from the torch. and darkness says no magical light source with equal or lower lvl than darkness can raise the light level, but what if the illumination lvl has allready been increased by light?

Hey Forum

I've been searching the board for illusions and how you should deal with them both as a GM and as Player, but it still troubles me.

My first example: On a battlefield in daylight the party reach the BBEG which is not a spellcaster and our wizard illusionist thinks to block vision of party by surrounding and trapping the BBEG with a silent image of a stone cube.
How should i react as GM to this?
Should i get autosave on will save because i have proof that this is not a stone cube as light would not be in it?
Or use my next action to determend if how this stone cube has suddenly appeared, and then get a will save?

Second: if we change the BBEG so he is a spellcaster and makes his spellcraft check as the spell is being cast gives him a autosave as proof of it is created by magic from illusion school?

Next: Now let us assume that the BBEG did not succed his will save and the ranged in the party has been told this is an illusion. The ranger shoots at the stone cube, he hits the AC of the illusion and gets a will save with +4. okey he makes the save and can now see the BBEG inside the stone cube. Next arrow is aiming for the BBEG, as he is flat-footed because he cant see the attacker he is hit, would that be proof that the stone cube is not real as arrows can come trough it?

And now to the Darkness/Light

It is night and the moon is full the battlefield is in dim light, the party has ventured out to slay the BBEG. Our Cleric in the party has cast Light on her scimitar, and our fighter has a torch. They encounter the BBEG as he suprise them by casting Darkness.

Should the illumination level be Normal light produced from light spell and torch or the natural dim light which the moon provide when darkness comes into effect?

Thanks

2 hours and it get out in EU

I like the Black beard way, as he was infamous for having 6 pistols on him double barrel. Then have quick draw to fect them one by one and when your done with the 12 shots draw your sword and fight them off your ship.

And again I point out:
The action occurs just before the action that triggers it. If the triggered action is part of another character's activities, you interrupt the other character.

if you say i ready when character x moves within... then before he makes a double move towards you, the action that trigger yours ready action you can move, then he will still charge you if he can or make some other move attack whatever.

The Magus is the only class which can use spells on natural or weapons.
If you hold the charge and make an unarmed strike/natural attack it discharges.
read below:

Holding the Charge: If you don't discharge the spell in the round when you cast the spell, you can hold the charge indefinitely. You can continue to make touch attacks round after round. If you touch anything or anyone while holding a charge, even unintentionally, the spell discharges. If you cast another spell, the touch spell dissipates. You can touch one friend as a standard action or up to six friends as a full-round action.
Alternatively, you may make a normal unarmed attack (or an attack with a natural weapon) while holding a charge. In this case, you aren't considered armed and you provoke attacks of opportunity as normal for the attack. If your unarmed attack or natural weapon attack normally doesn't provoke attacks of opportunity, neither does this attack. If the attack hits, you deal normal damage for your unarmed attack or natural weapon and the spell discharges.

Readying an Action

You can ready a standard action, a move action, a swift action, or a free action. To do so, specify the action you will take and the conditions under which you will take it. Then, anytime before your next action, you may take the readied action in response to that condition. The action occurs just before the action that triggers it. If the triggered action is part of another character's activities, you interrupt the other character. Assuming he is still capable of doing so, he continues his actions once you complete your readied action. Your initiative result changes. For the rest of the encounter, your initiative result is the count on which you took the readied action, and you act immediately ahead of the character whose action triggered your readied action.

Go to the Core Rulebook under Combat and look up:
Big And Little Creatures In Combat

Four small creatures fit in one five foot square.

That is wrong 4 tiny creatures fit into one five foot square

Last question: What about Create Pit? Would a swarm of rats suffer normal damage from a 50 foot pit cast by a 10th level wizard? Cockroaches (those things are sturdy!)

Cockroaches has a fly speed...

The Vials in the crypt are pretty good dealing 1d6 damage to haunts.. so players without channel can do something.

Let the Sword be left behind by the Whispering Way as it was of no use anymore. Then let the Sword have a mini quest to punish is old master for leaving it, the sword will change allignment to the PC so it can fufill its goal but try to take control over the PC if he resist attack members of the whispering Way.

As it says in UM some swords are inheret, others appears on the magi. people are never sure how the swords end up at the magus.

Yep sorry I didn't make it clear i wanted like a story from the gm how the PC done their adventure.

I make an eksample.

"It had been raining for days and it wasn't getting better the further I traveled into the lands of Ustalav. My name is Fenhard and a member of Pathfinder Society, a few days ago I got a letter from the daugther an old friend, Professor Lorrimor. The professor had passed away, so I packed and set out to pay my respect."

Fenhard is a Bard who travels to Ravengro and follow the PC telling their tale.

Hey Fellow GM's

My first Session will be the 10 of july, then my journal and stuff I used to spice up CC will be given out here so other GM's can see different reactions and new stuff they maybe like to put into their campaign.

And then i would like if other GM's also made contributes in this thread so we gather data and info for other GM's in one thread.

Thank you very much.

Are there roads on the ISWG map? Else make something up yourself Golarion is not that solid

the land to the west is orc-inhabited.

Hold of Belkzen - the orc lands filled with several tribes of orcs is just west of Ustalav, if want to travel to Ravengro, there is 3 ways

1. you travel over the lake or through Lastwall first to get to Caliphas (Ustalavs capital) and then by foot through the Hungry mountains to Ravengro

2. If you don't like to travel through the mountains and close to Gallowspire, you can travel on the western side of Ustalav from Lastwall's capital into Hold of Belkzen and very close to its capital, then into Ustalav.

3. if you choose to come from the eastern side you travel through Razmiran and have to cross most of Ustalav.

Then further if you like to travel from Ravengro to Lepidstadt its just a trip north through some rough terran, the 2 cities can can stop by on the way is: Tamrivena and Courtaud. On the whole trip you will have on your west side the Tusk mountains, properly filled with orcs, trolls and the like.

Thanks but the elemental school has a rule that you have to take the opposite school as opposition school and then Earth got both air and wood that must be taken? else there is conflict between the rules of UC and APG

Hey gamers
I just brought Ultimate Magic and I now have a ton of questions.
Looked at the forum but couldn’t find them all so here are the questions I couldn’t find.

• How does the Varient Channel work, as I can see you channel positive energy when healing and change to negative energy when harming, so you have no chance of dealing damage to undeads If you had nature. Is this true? Or how should understand the new channeling?

• Under the Cloistered Cleric I think there might be a typo that the skills does not replace the clerics skills from a normal cleric, is that correct?

• The Wizard got 2 more elemental schools but then they make a circle of 5 elements that don’t mention air? So if I choose earth as a school I get 2 opposite schools Air from APG and Wood from UC?

• Tactics Inquisition gives you Grant the Initiative (Ex): At 8th level, you and all allies within 30 feet may add your Wisdom bonus to your initiative checks. Does this mean that you + your wisdom modifier for each ally to your initiative roll or you and each ally get your wisdom modifier to their initiative roll?

• Grant Initiative Not only are you a master at taking the initiative, but you can also grant it to someone else. Prerequisites: Cunning initiative class feature. Benefit: At the start of each encounter, you can either choose to keep the bonus granted to you by your Wisdom modifier on initiative checks or choose to give that bonus to one of your allies that you can see. You must make this choice before you or the ally you are granting the bonus to makes the initiative check. Cunning initiative class feature what is this searched ultimate magic and didn’t find any clue on how to get this prerequisite.

any got a picture of him?

As GM keep track of the PC trust points and maybe print out trust cards so you can see what lvl of trust they have, and then make it obvious to the PC when they are in town, like when friendly the people greet by name but when unfriendly they tend to ignore the PC.

Then the PC will know when their action turn grim or for the better and will give you more RP as if they just have a system they seem to forget the RP and avoid encounters that make them lose trust.

I say go for the hidden trust ^^

The PC that can cast cure light wounds can damage haunts aswell as a cleric using channel positive energi.

so if you want around the rules about holy water just let the Pc buy wands with less charges (15 gp per charge in a wand) from merchants or scrolls, then All divine spellcasters can cast cure light wounds even the paladin in lvl 1 and other classes with use magic device can then also damage haunts.

problem sloved :D
