so we've been playing pathfinder 2e for a while now, and we started with the beginner box and reached level 4. I saw that on every 5th level you gain four abvility boosts but the character spreadsheet only has ability modifiers, no ability scores so how do i increase at 5th level the ability modifiers ??

The former is the rule from 1st Edition.

The latter is the rule for 2nd Edition.

Thanks for clarifying, i didn't even know that i had the core rulebook of 1st edition, i just placed my order for 2nd edition thank you again!

i have a question , as i've read it says that every four levels you gain +1 ability score going for levels 4th 8th 12th etc. But I also found on the net that every 5th level like 5th 10th 15th etc you gain an ability boost of 4 ability scores but in my pathfinder core rulebook cant find this. Do they both apply ?

so I was wondering how much time is 1 hour in game in real time, and how much time is 24 hour in game in real time. I'm really strugglenig with the conversion don't know how time passes please help.

You can draw your own maps, or you can use premade maps.

Sometimes Paizo creates a special map for the adventure, other times they list the standard maps that are referenced in the adventure, and sometimes you need to draw out the maps from the books. Or you can take the file to your local print shop and have them print it out on large-size paper

If you are running on VTTs or if you want to print out the maps at your local print shop, there are sometimes maps that are shared with the Paizo community that have been drawn/converted by another community member.

If you'll post which adventure you're looking for maps from, we can help you find what you need.

so how long is a day in pathfinder in real time? or for example i get a bonus that says in the game it lasts for 1 hour, how much time is that 1 hour in real time? please help

So I just got the Abomination Vaults adventure path but can't seem to find any flip mats or poster map folio, my question is are you supposed to draw the map from the book on an blank flip mat in order to play? Please help

Hi I'm knew to the pathfinder universe just ordered the beginner box and it comes with maps. I also bought the Abomintaion Vaults adventure path and as I've seen it has maps in the book but by the size of it's pages, my question is do you have to draw the maps in the book to play because I can't find any map folio for this adventure path. Also for other future adventure paths do the maps inside need to be drawn in order to play, I can't figure it out please help.

Barboo walks into a deserted alleyway and is jumped by a would-be mugger. Roll for initiative!
Mugger initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Barboo initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

Mugger is up first. He lunges at Barboo with his dagger. Gimmie yer purse little lady and this will be all over soon.

Dagger: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

He nearly trips over his own feet as he tries to stab Barboo, his dagger swings wildly wide of Barboo.
