I wish I had been more in tune with what was going on when the hardcover was still around. I have the PDF but I'd pay again for a hardcover or two of this one.

"Option junkies." They love to make minute and trivial decisions.

(Looks at my houserule and allowed book list.)

... Me too buddy. Me too.


My girlfriend's family runs a D&D 4e game, and I've been trying to consider how to convert their characters to Pathfinder.

We have -

An Eladrin Swordmage - who I figure would just be an elf magus.

Dragonborn Avenger - Dragonborn I may need to put together with a new race. Avenger I figure would be inquisitor.

Shifter Druid - Skinwalker Druid. That's easy enough.

Dryad Shaman - This one I'm having some trouble with. Shamans between the two games are a little different, and I can't figure out how to make her spirit animal a moose.

Fairy Rogue - Gathlain Rogue? Can't figure out the invisibility power.

Dungeonborn Artificer - I'm willing to replace the Dungeonborn part with an Oread, but Artificer I'm having a hard time on. Alchemist maybe.

Any ideas on what to consider?


Update - my stuff got here safe and sound, and everything is a-ok!


So with some help from therotgrub, I started an after-school Pathfinder program in my city - the number of students fluctuates, but it tends to be a lot of fun!

So I made an imgur post of the misadventures of our Adventurers Guild - or at least a small sampling of them.

Enjoy.


I was wondering if there was a tracking number for my order - I understand if there is not. I'm just a little on edge, as shortly after I saw it shipped I found that my neighbors were having their mail stolen, and right after that one of my Amazon packaged was stolen - we found the packaging the next day.

A tracking number could help me know when I need to wait for it.
Thank you.


That might be a good way to get a starring role in a sitcom, but I can't quite see the benefits beyond that of doing this?
Also, I think the Alter Self is dependent on the body, but the ability to do it is dependent on the consciousness. So you'd be able to become other animals I'd think? But only cosmetically.


Hi again.

So I received 4022187 already, and I'm glad to have it. Thank you.

But I did want to check on 3367718 - is the Advanced Bestiary still AWOL? Just wanted to check on that, or on when I should expect it.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Alchemyprime,

I can merge both orders but doing so will hold the order up. Everything except Advanced Bestiary is ready to go in order 3367718, so that order should be on its way as soon as the book gets to us. The items in order 4022187 are all items we need to get from the supplier so that order will not ship until they arrive. I can merge the orders and it will all ship together once everything arrives. I can also move the Advanced Bestiary into order 4022187 so everything else on that order can get going right away. Which would you prefer?

Hm... I suppose just leaving it as it is then. That'll all work okay.

Thank you!


They're going to the same address, I probably should have just ordered them together. I don't necessarily need them merged, but I would appreciate it if it would help save on Shipping at all.

Thank you for your time.


So I'm trying to start a thing over the summer for the kids in my neighborhood - give me something to do since teaching jobs tend to dry up over the summer, and get the kids to the library (where I hope to host it).

I was wondering, for the various classes and races, what would be a book you'd suggest for each one to help the kids get a better idea of what they're doing (I'm making this range from 11 to 14 in one group, and 14 to 17 in another, so keep that in mind). I already figured "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" for Alchemist. Any other suggestions?

(Also, since the few middle schoolers who already asked me to do this liked my Path of War and Ultimate Psionics books I was reading at lunch, those classes might be included too).


Thank you so much.


If not I understand. I also realize you folks are pretty swamped. Thank you so much for your time.


Well, I already used the old one in my Pathfinder game (the current villains include a Dread Ghoul Goblin Druid and his army of Ghoulblins, he rides copper plated Deinonychuses) and I love it to bits.
So am I going to buy the new one when it comes out?
No. I need a job.
Will I buy one once I have money and it's out?
I'll do what I did last time AND BUY TWO.


Purple Duck Games has "Legendary Blades" which seems to do a halfway decent job of it; the weapon improves every other level, not every level though. http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=3367&products_i d=83866&filters=0_0_0_0&manufacturers_id=3367&affiliate_id=3108 99

If it was available via Paizo, I'd link that. of course.


Oh, I don't think it's too weak. It's just that, by adding Shadowy Illumination, now every level but 12th gets something besides Mysteries or Fundamentals except 12th. 12th, as it is, gets one Fundamental power, the standard increase to BAB, Fort Saves and Will Saves, and the standard skill ranks. Essentially, it's just "Okay, pick that one 0 level spell you've not been wanting. That's all you get."

So it was just me thinking, at this point we have one level that might as well be a Dead Level, and that bugs me.


Hm... Over all that looks fun, but then that leaves poor little 12th level without any non-mystery powers gained...

What if they got something else then too? Something that could maybe even be kinda dinky, but might be something halfway useful, like every hour the Shadowcaster spends in shadowy illumination or lower light, they can heal 1 HP or something? I dunno.
