Can we get an official ruling on this? I believe that the reference on page 174 of the Pathfinder core rule book about Animated Objects not being susceptible to critical attacks is a misprint, as nothing in the Bestiary says otherwise.
I just downloaded the PDF for the Pathfinder Society converted module Ruby Phoenix Tournament and it has the old rules listed for playing converted modules in Pathfinder Society. The chronicle has all tiers listed with XP and gold for all of them as well. Shouldn't this document be updated like the others to use the rules from the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play version 4.1?
How does the Paladin's detect evil ability really work? It has been suggested that the Paladin's detect evil ability can work one of two ways as listed in the core rulebook. Here is what is listed in the book... Detect Evil (Sp): At will, a paladin can use detect evil, as
One of my players says that a Paladin's detect evil gives them the ability to detect evil as the spell as a standard action normally and would take 3 rounds to gain all the benefits of that spell. He also says that as a separate use a paladin can as a move action focus on one individual, and only one individual, to gain all the benefits of the spell for that one individual. So he would as a move action detect evil on one individual to see if the individual is evil, then use his swift action to use smite evil, and then use his standard action to attack the individual if possible. Another of my players says that a paladin can as a standard action detect evil, normally, but then could focus on one individual as a move action to gain all the benefits for that one individual. In other words, the second play is saying that you have to use your standard action to use detect evil and then your move action to focus on one individual to gain all the benefits for that individual which would require that the standard action use of detect evil is active before you can use the move action use of detect evil. Which of these is the correct way to use this ability.
I have been running and coordinating Pathfinder Society scenarios for the past year or two and normally I run things by the book. Recently a few of the judges I've played with have been using an alternate rule for Initiative rolls. Instead of have players roll initiative, they run initiative by what a character's Initiative bonus is and using this to determine the order in which initiative is ran. Example: player one has a initiative bonus of +3, player two has an initiative bonus of +6 and the monster has an initiative of +1. The initiative order would be player two, player one, and then the monster. This is done with no die rolls for initiative. Is this something that is acceptable in the Pathfinder Society? I would assume it isn't but would like an official response before I step in as coordinator and stop it. |
