Store update changed my preferred shipping to USPS from UPS and I don't see a way to change back.

Same here, I can see no way to change back to my preferred shipping method as USPS has proven less than reliable to my address and I strongly prefer not to use them. Also, my order says "Manual Verification Required" and I have no idea what that means, no email or anything stating what is needed (and I confirmed with my bank that Paizo has of course charged my card). And no PDFs even though my card has been charged.

Sigh. What is the advantage of subscribing again?

A few things to note!

We are currently working on the library and downloads page for digital content. We're listening to your feedback about the layout, and we're doing the best we can.

Thank you so much for this.

I always thought the layout of the My Downloads page couldn't get any worse, with things like rulebooks scattered across several categories for example.

But it seems someone at Paizo said "Hold my beer!"

The new library page is just atrocious. Seriously, how am I supposed to know what "2190450" is (this is the title of a download in my library, no other description). And it no longer tells you which download is the whole PDF and which is the single file per chapter download.

And the categorization / grouping is weird. Instead of seeing all my maps in the maps category I just see some on each page. So some on page 1 (along with other categories like rulebooks, APs, etc.), some on page 2, and so on.

How does one add an item to be shipped with the next subscription shipment? I had an item in my sidecart on the old store and am trying to add it to ship with the next subscription but all I see is add to cart, add to wishlist, and create a new wishlist. I don't see an add to subscription shipment on the store page or in my cart anywhere.

It definitely makes sense for Rhythm to be primal. Bard being occult has nothing to do with Mystics. Music and rhythm are universal in their reach and application and I don't see how (or even why) music would be limited to a single tradition. I can think of plenty of music from various cultures here on Earth that I would consider to be primal.

It is just like healing spells appear on both divine and primal. Healing can come from divine sources (such as the gods) but there is also natural healing, which is primal. Music and rhythm can extend across traditions.

My Rusthenge tie-in was, essentially, that the body found in Rusthenge (Blanton) was Blanton Valdemar, a relative of the Valdemars that remained in Iron Harbor after construction on the Valdemar Mansion there was abandoned. In my version of events he was able to get out his name and that he was from Sandpoint before he passed.

The Elders of Osprey Cove sent a missive to Sandpoint about Blanton's death. The Sandpoint town council decides to send a group to Osprey Cove to retrieve the body and the party ended up getting chosen and/or volunteering (2 in my party chose the background that makes them members of the town guard).

The transportation to Osprey Cove was provided by the Scarnetti's (so kind of them) so I was able to start some harmless hijinks that indicated the Scarnetti's might have a less than favorable attitude towards them. After their adventures in Iron Harbor my party returned to Sandpoint, with Blanton's remains in tow (and even brought Derrol Finnick back to "civilization" with them).

Returning to Sandpoint after having resolved the issues in Iron Harbor the party now had their first little bit of renown, which played into why Zantus asked them as a group to investigate under the boneyard.

Returning Blanton's remains also gave a stronger hook (from the party's perspective) as to why Kaleb Valedmar wanted to treat them to dinner at the Rusty Dragon, as now it was framed with wanting to thank the party for returning the remains of a member of the Valedmar family.

Well, apparently customer service has a bug too since they haven't replied (outside the automated "we got your request" response) in over two weeks.

Do subscriptions no longer come with PDFs? My Monster Core is shipped and the order listed as complete and the order (where it normally says the PDF was added to my downloads) says download not available.

Will the new core book special editions ever be able to be chosen as the starting books for the subscription? The subscription FAQ says you can start with the current book or the next book to be released, yet I only see options for Treasure Vault (released ~6 months ago) and Rage of Elements (released a month ago now).

Yes. We will cycle to the new hardcover and special edition Player Core and GM Core options for the subscriptions soon. They release November 15.

Thank you for your quick response. I've never had a subscription before and am wanting to get one for the special editions starting with the remasters. I thought perhaps I had missed something.
