The worst part was Drow fans who insisted that the Drow be the same in every setting. Eberron, Golarion, Greyhawk never got to re-imagine the culture because they had to accomodate Drizzit fans.

Never forget that the Forgotten Realms stole them from Greyhawk. Erelhei-Cinlu was there long before Menzoberranzan.

Basically, like they stole almost everything from somewhere else.

What reason would a character have to voluntarily take an edict/anathema from their ancestry?

I think it's called “role-playing”.

I guess that conundrum will be solved by Starfinder 2E sooner or later.

Wonderful!

As pugwampis are not creations listed under the OGL, I an confident of our prime placement within the Monster Core book!

Pugwampis are in fact listed under the OGL, because Paizo placed them under that licence. What you mean is, and what is important here, is: they are not from the SRD.

It is easy to confuse OGL and SRD, but they are different things. The OGL is the licence that has allowed Paizo to use content from that SRD – the System Reference Document, which contains all the Open Game Content, the rules from D&D. Now that Paizo is moving away from using the OGL, they can no longer use SRD content. That is the reason that stuff such as certain creatures is now being phased out.

As a note on this, the book DOES list both for instance, Normal temp effects are 33º F to 94º F (1º C to 34º C) on Table 10-13: Temperature Effects.

I don't know what book you have, but my Core Rulebook (4th printing PDF) doesn't list any Celsius values.

My disappointment isn't in that it's an ARPG, it's more that this looks to be a multiplayer-only game.

I think I'll pass. There are better choices for hack and slash games on the market and it's not why I purchase Paizo or Paizo-licensed products.

Didn't you just say you weren't purchasing anything from Paizo ever again just a few days ago?

I think turning Abomination Vault into a hack and slash is likely to take away everything that makes it so distinct from a run-of-the-mill monster hotel.

I was excited until we got to it being an ARPG (which I do like now and again) with canon characters only, and made by a company that had a D&D project that got mixed reviews, and was removed from Steam.

No thanks.

To be fair, the game was removed from Steam because their licence agreement with Wizards of the Coasts expired, not due to quality issues or anything like that.


Pathfinder Maps, Pathfinder Accessories Subscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Charter Superscriber; Starfinder Charter Superscriber

That sounds like a console thing, it's difficult to imagine for a PC game. And it sounds even worse to me than playing over the internet.

Not gonna happen. Word is that Owlcat was not interested in doing PF2 games and that is why Paizo had to find a new partner and Owlcat are now making, of all things, Warhammer games.

Hm, "co-op Hack and Slash" sounds like a Diablo clone. Unfortunately, I really don't care for multiplayer video games. Like, at all. Disappointing.

EDIT: saw the footage. Yes, Diablo indeed.

It's obvious that they are planning something for Starfinder, which is very likely to be Starfinder 2E, based on the PF2E rules engine. If I were them, I'd likely leave it at what is currently announced for Starfinder 1E, cancel Starfinder Enhanced, probably even cancel the Scoured Stars AP – which in effect leaves only Port of Call and Society Scenarios, and bet on Starfinder 2E.

They’ve never done this for any of their books and they haven’t stated they intend to change that going forward.

They never list PDFs for upcoming products, as PDFs can't be pre-ordered. Compare the product page for Rage of Elements, for example.

Thank you, I found it, it's in #2-08, "A Frosty Mug", it says, though, that it was Baba Yaga who brought over the Russians, not Anastasia.

Why did Baba Yaga bring them over and when did she do it (before or after the RoW AP)? Was it to provide Anastasia some company/back-up or for other reasons?

This is what the adventure has to say about this:

A Frosty Mug wrote:
Following Queen Elvanna’s attempted coup of her mother, Baba Yaga brought to Irrisen a new queen, Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanov, from a land called Russia on a faraway planet, along with several Russian soldiers, a band of whom settled in the Irriseni town of Zharchovsk.

There are White Russians in Irrisen who came over from Earth. I believe a 2e PFS scenario from Season 2 deals with some.

No simple digital version is indeed disappointing news. "Discussions with licensed partners" probably means that the cards will become available in some digital tools like VTTs, but this also sounds like they will not be accessible outside these tools. That is very sad.

I've noticed that there haven't been any new flip-tiles since October last year, and there are none scheduled for this year as well. Is that product line dead?

I'm still quite angry that the promised "conversion information" was lacking some very important bits.

Treasure? Effectively: "Wing it with the help of the PF1 version, and we're not helping you at all with converting the treasure found in the expanded content."

Skill checks? Effectively: "This is what a flat check is. No comment otherwise on converting skill checks between editions."

This book is, as the title says, a Bestiary, nothing less, nothing more.

Your thread is in the wrong forum, this would most likely belong in the 1st Edition rules forum.

Nevertheless, the answer is, the trait bonuses do not stack. Generally, only racial bonuses, circumstance bonuses, and dodge bonuses stack. All other types of bonuses do not stack, and if you get multiples, only the best bonus counts.

They've made a turn-based D&D game, Tales from Candlekeep: Tomb of Annihilation; however, this was removed from Steam last year because their D&D licence expired.

Happy to help!

I hope you can tide yourself over with “globe-trotting Fantasy Tarot adventure” and “dwarven history and Darklands delving” before then. The shift to shorter APs really eases the pain of them doing one that doesn’t hit for you - the fifteen straight months of Kortos content a while back was rough for me.

Yeah, I'll get over it. My current campaigns will most likely not even finish before The Tian Xia AP is through. Stolen Fate does sound interesting, yes, but I could well do without the dwarf stuff.

I just noticed a change in the new 4th printing of the Core Rulebook that isn't mentioned in the errata listing on the FAQ page: produce flame was reworded to list the effects as success degree lines, not in the corpus of the spell description:

Core Rulebook, 3rd printing wrote:
A small ball of flame appears in the palm of your hand, and you lash out with it either in melee or at range. Make a spell attack roll against your target’s AC. This is normally a ranged attack, but you can also make a melee attack against a creature in your unarmed reach. On a success, you deal 1d4 fire damage plus your spellcasting ability modifier. On a critical success, the target takes double damage and 1d4 persistent fire damage.

Critical Success The target takes double damage and 1d4 persistent fire damage.

It doesn't change anything, but makes the spell formatting more consistent.

Did anyone notice any other stealth changes?

What are the names for Human, Elf, Gnome, Goblin, Orc, then? Where do i find that?
