I didnt look at it quite like that. I guess its the power gamer in me not seeing the value of losing 1 skill rank or hp for half of a skill

Looking through it i think i found a rather worthless alternate favored class bonus. With the ratfolk one for rogues you trade 1 skill point for 1/2 bonus on escape artist checks seriously? Hows that even make it into a book
Weapon Expertise (Ex): At 3rd level, a samurai gains an unparalleled expertise with his chosen weapons. At 3rd level, the samurai selects either the katana, longbow, naginata, or wakizashi. The samurai can draw the selected weapon as a free action as if he had the Quick Draw feat. In addition, whenever he threatens a critical hit with the selected weapon, he gains a +2 bonus on the confirmation roll. Finally, his samurai levels stack with any fighter levels he possesses for the purposes of meeting the prerequisites for feats that specifically select his chosen weapon, such as Weapon Specialization. i know this is probably an obvious answer, but do i have to have fighter levels to gain the benefit of fighter feats with my focus weapon or can i just stay full samurai and pick up say weapon specialization?
i had no idea a page like that existed thanks so much
im looking at making a synthesist summoner for an upcoming game and im wondering how you go about healing it? do normal cure spells work or do i need an eidolon specific heal?
like the title says why would i use a rifle over a pistol as a full gunslinger? it seems rather restrictive on iterative attacks every round. sorry if this is phrased bad its late at night for me
so essentially i save absolutely no gold. thats kind of depressing
if i supply the masterwork weapon to be enchanted. whats my cost? sorry if its the wrong forum i cant fin the answer anywhere
with the release of ultimate combat ive decided to update my paladin. i really like the holy gun archtype but it seems the best way to make it even a little effective is with 1 level of gunslinger(mysterious stranger/pistolero). with that combination i get grit base off of charisma and a minor boost to pistols being the cheapest advanced firearm. im mostly looking for input if this is a worthwhile plan or shoul i just scrap it and keep my old paladin the way he was
i skimmed through all the posts but has there been any info on the divine hunter paladin archtype?
is there any way to get some more info on the gunslinger archtypes? i went through the post thus far and didnt see anything. i may very well have missed it
if taken for each pet does it affect my druid level for them? im sorry if its poorly worded im not sure how to get it across
oh mighty pathfinder subscribers is there any chance i can get a bit more info on the broodmaster summoner and master summoner? thank you all in advance for that and thank you for the info thus far
cmon summoner preview /crosses fingers! i wanna see the broodmaster so bad!!!!!!
im really hoping for some good summoner love. i will keep up the dream of my pocket army
how about as just a pdf purchase? id love to support the company in some way since i have a ways until ultimate magic.
If I hear about one more dhampir PC im going to scream and rip my eyeballs out. oh i can truly understand the hate for all the dhampir but this setting just screams play one i mean im in a group of 5-6 and i will easily be the only one considering it
as it seems the forum ate my original post i was just wondering purely from a character options standpoint(feats/spells and so on) is it worth it? we are real hit/miss on fluff of a setting. i fully intend to buy it if there are enough Pros to Cons
heres the basic of the one i really want to play. A dhampir cleric channeling his dark heritage to harm and control his foes he is iffy as im unsure how well negative energy will pan out in the AP
ive been trying to get permission to play an actual monster but i have played many a monster race am actually working on a dhampir cleric or summoner atm
yeah having the mount be medium is the exact reason im going this route. im still having some issues working out a build but i should be able to post a tentative one later today. i could really use help picking a mount though. nothing that can fly as the dm will throw a fit. im really eager to see all of your takes on this odd character
as the title states im working on a halfling paladin level 8 25point buy. we are alowed to use the phb/beastiary 1&2/apg. normally id be able to sort something out but this is really rather unorthodox and i have never in my gaming history played a mounted character.i will need help with a mount as well due to inexperience. im inclined to take the APG shining knight path for its assorted bonuses if its not worth it let me know. im also planning on taking the halfling outrider alternate race trait. ideally id like to charge in for a big hit with a lance than quick draw into something more appropriate for a melee beatdown but i am open to suggetions. so i turn to you forum gurus for tips and tricks for my mounted crusader of justice! quick edit here: I was wondering if giving up spells was worth taking the warrior of the holy light alternate package.
wow thanks for the help and the quick responses
first question is it possible to sneak attack with touch spells (like say shocking grasp) which brings me to my next question i dont quite understand how costs work with putting spell use on magic items. im trying to work out the cost of a set of gloves that let you shocking grasp(5th level caster) 1-3 times per day. sorry if im in the wrong forum for the second question
i appreciate all teh responses it helps my case but my friends swear there is a rule preventing it. i guess my only option is to email support to get a response direct from paizo
im not sure on the rules but if you have a +1 weapon and put flaming and shock onto it do the bonuses stack? would i be doing 2d6 additional damage? is that magus only or is it universal for magic weapons? i am sorry if its the wrong forum to be askin this
if you say have a flaming/shock sword can you have both active at once?
i was wondering if there was anywhere we can look at costs of buildings
thanks for the speedy responses guess ill have to rework my eidolon
when you have the biped form does picking slam to replace the base forms claws do you get 1 slam or 2? if its just one that seems rather lackluster but it could just be me missing the overall picture like i do from time to time
does the feat improved natural attack stack wiht the eidolon evolution improved damage?
so we have conflicting opions are something im sure is really simple. is a full attack considered an attack action for feats like vital strike? or anything that requires you to make an attack action
yeah i figured that out once i got it, im not seeing any law or chaos races though. no worries it was a great buy
im not quite sure what you mean by planar races since some races are hard to get approval by the dm. but i do love monster races and other unorthodox player choices so that may be enough to get me to buy it
now i rarely dm but i wonder from a player perspective would the beastiary 2 be worth it? are there many new races familiars or animal companions? im real hesitant on this purchase. thanks in advance guys/gals
like the title says im interested in making a worthwhile kobold character. class isnt a big deal but i dont forsee many worthy martial builds coming from this. we are level 6 using 25 pointbuy and the standard creation rules.
i was thinking wizard or druid but the only wizard ive played is evocation spec'd and i have read its just a bad choice i dont know how i would play one that isnt. our party is rather bloodthirsty so i dont know quite where a non damage char would fit into it
As the title states can you channel positive energy in a grapple?
the books im allowed are the core book, the beastiary, and the APG. we dont have any of the supplements yet. we are going to run the full serpents skull adventure path i dont know what level that gets to. I am not dead set on melee it was just filling a gap in our party makeup (a heal oriented cleric, a ranged fighter, an inquisitor and a cavalier both of them seem to like it more at ranged then in melee if the makeup matters). we have actually been playing for a little while and i have permission to do a rework as long as i keep the gear the same(only thing of note is a +1 scimitar and a mw heavy shield) I am ok being a little fragile if thats what it takes. but if its just that bad of an idea i can get a better animal companion to try keep the bad guys locked into melee i have a dire bat currently i thought it was neat and like the out of combat possibilities it offered. I hope that was enough info to fill in some of the blanks. again i apologize if i still yet again am missing something
i really like the idea of lion/bear but i cant bring myself to build around it i want a pretty hard hitting melee druid while not ignoring the caster side. we are using 25 point buy and are currently level 2 with access to just the core books(a player complained so we stopped using 3rd party books). i like the idea of running into melee with claws and other such natural attacks. so forum gurus can you help a poor man out? i apologize if this post is a mess ask me and ill clear anything up. thanks in advance
With its ability to remove fatigue does that mean he never needs to sleep or are we missing some rules. We spent 15 minutes arguing to no avail. Please help
any specficic books you can tell me? we dont have many of them
i dont know if this should go in advice or here. but we are starting the first book this weekend and im making a druid are there any setting specific animal companions i could use? right now its a toss-up of dire bat(for fun) or a t-rex. if its the wrong forum i apologize for wasting your time
It must be from your mystery. dang i was afraid of that thanks for the quick response
this is probably me being dumb but with the extra revelation feat does it have to be from your mystery or can it be from any?
i hate to do it but ill bump this thread, if it dies it dies. please oh wise board gurus help a poor man out
ah yeah forgot about specifics its 25point buy and the 3 corebooks.i dont know if it matters but we are converting the sundark goggles from 3.5 the ones that get rid of light sensitivity
as the title says im looking to make a kobold witch. sub-optimal sure but it just seems fun as hell. i dont know how to go about doing it so i turn to you oh wise ones help this poor soul make his cackling kobold work. i know i wont be the the most astounding combatant but i was looking to use hexes to debuff/buff and hopefully augment some damage with the spells thats about all i have planned. sorry if theres bad grammar and punctuation thanks in advance!
unless i read something wrong(not near my book currently)to qualify it seems gnomes have to be middle aged. is that right?
i was just wondering how you guys would create favor/fluff on a male witch. the only thing i could come up with was a witch doctor type of deal or a crazy swamp dude not very creative i know. so forumites what would you do?
essentially do casters need to get precise shot to avoid the firing into melee with ranged touch. kinda confused on this please help. thanks in advance
