Stuck on pending. Same for my War of Immortals subscription and Godsrain preorder sidecart order, actually. Starting to think this event might be cursed...

The others might be because they haven't shipped you your order..though I don't think it should be in the sidecart...I'm not too sure about that one.

I preordered Godsrain when it was first announced, which is why it was in the sidecart. It was added to the order with my subscriptions for this month. It just doesn't usually take this long between me getting the initial order submission email and the shipping notification email... which isn't helped by now impatient I am to get my hands on the Exemplar, haha.

As if the vanilla gogiteth wasn't terrifying enough: here's a MYTHIC one! I can't wait to get my copy.

Awaken Curse seems like a fun way to set a BBEG for a campaign. I'm curious to see how these spells and rituals look in their entirety! Just got the notification that my order is being prepped, and I can't wait to see it ship!

I know it's a little messy, but I kind of hope live wire heightens by 1d4 with every rank, alternating between slashing and electricity. Having to wait 4 levels for your cantrip to catch up in damage feels kind of bleh.

Also, highly unlikely and arguably off-topic, but I hope that Metal Elemental Sorcerers get live wire as one of their sorcerous gifts. I know that electric arc is considered the best cantrip, but live wire feels more fitting.
I mean, it's already a little weird that wood and metal are in PC2 when they were introduced in the RoE expansion. But it's even weirder when a lot of those wood and metal spells now can't be referenced by their subclasses. (Seriously, clean cuisine for wood?)

... Oh yeah, errata. Mauler Dedication (pg 207) uses "Strength 14" for its prerequisite instead of "Strength +2" to align with the new attributes.

It's hard to complain with all the news and content they've released today, but... Man do I really want this token pack and the PC2 errata.

Minor typo noted in the Player Guide: on page 12 under "Suggested Character Options," the last column header says "Skills," but the previous column has the same title and the text in the last column looks more like Feats or Archetypes.

Still, I'm really interested to see how this AP turns out! Might run my Abomination Vaults group through after they finish that adventure sometime this decade, haha.

Nice! I feel like the Champion has some room to grow with its early-level feats, and oaths were always a bit niche by definition. So I think expanding base level feats and saving oaths/litanies for later is a good call. And the causes sound neat; I'm especially curious about Grandeur.

It's also great to see more abilities roped into its aura -- just makes sense. Shield of Spirit is also a really flavorful defensive option! I'm curious if you can pick it up later, or if it's a choice you make at chargen with your deity?

Excited regardless! The Champion was in a good spot already, and it's only looking better.

Frankly, I think full spellcasters just need to emulate martial weapon scaling for their spell attacks/DCs, then Legendary at level 17 or so. It'll still fall behind martials slightly without potency runes, but it'll at least lessen the gap at levels 5-7 and 13-15.

A gate attenuator-like item bonus to DCs would also be neat -- maybe tie them to a tradition and limit them to one per user (like apex items) if you want to reign them in a little and specialize. Both together might be a bit rough, and Kineticist might be a little miffed with the change.

But even without these, I think magic is in an okay spot. The problems largely iron out as you level up and get more items and spell slots. Alchemists have a similar problem, though I think it takes them longer to get to a better spot.

Haven't heard of this in a while and Seven Dooms came out without the soundtrack...fingers closed it's soon!

The description of the Foundry Module says it includes it. Here is to hoping it releases soon.

We're still ironing out some minor bumps in our production process, so the entire soundtrack unfortunately wasn't quite polished enough for release by the time the module was scheduled to drop. However, we did make sure that all of the tracks for the first few chapters were prioritized so that we could included and integrate them into the Foundry module, and the remainder should be added in an update hopefully within the week, so unless you're absolutely blazing through the adventure, you shouldn't have cause to notice.

Once it's complete, we'll also be releasing the full soundtrack as a separate product on the Paizo store (including all tracks, multiple file formats, and looping alternate versions).

Sorry for the delay, but glad to hear you're excited about it!

Sorry to pester, but it's been a month. Are there any updates on these soundtracks releasing?

Looks like Paizo just updated the digital copy to fix the weird outlines on the pawns. The reefclaw is still large instead of small, but otherwise it looks better.

I had a similar situation to a lot of folks here -- swapped to a hardcover from my subscription, ended up getting delayed shipping and no PDF. Thankfully customer service was very quick to confirm my order HAD actually shipped and then add the PDF to my account manually.

So just each out to CS if you're having any issues, any issues!

Hello everyone!
Sorry if I missed an announcement or something, but has there been any word about Paizo releasing/licensing minis for their new tradition dragons?

I could imagine a particularly old fortune dragon being almost entirely immobile due to all the precious metals melted onto itself over the years. Making a once fiersome dragon become easy pickings for other more opportunistic dragons, creatures or even adventurers.

Ooooh, I'm getting Pacific Rim vibes. A colony of rust monsters could chip away layers of drained and dulled treasure from a great fortune wyrm, cleaning it like remoras for a great shark. Symbiotic parasites!

I love every bit of this. These dragons seem a lot more dynamic and interesting to me than the OGL ones.

A green dragon is planning? Probably bad!
A conspirator dragon is planning? Who the hell knows!

Liking what I've seen of the changes so far. Doubling down on the familiar focus, leaning into that "witchy" flavor (and viability) for feats, and improving hexes fixes most of my issues with original release.

The Harrow is an aspect of the game/setting I've been really interested in lately, so I'm glad to see this AP leaning so hard into it! (Might even pick up the physical deck)
An archetype AND a new Sorcerer bloodline in just the Player's Guide? Sign me up!

So strange these APs are getting review bombed

A single 3-star review is hardly what I would call 'review bombing.'

You're right! The previous volume also had some low reviews with no comments, so I was worried it was a trend! I find that reviews with no information about why they made that assessment is really not useful

Agreed. I understand that not everyone is great at giving coherent or useful feedback, but it feels so... Low-effort to just drop a review score without any actual opinions to explain it.

Really promising update.

More timely errata is a huge boon. While I get waiting for a reprint, there are too many minor changes that need to be done that just weren't getting out (Arcane Cascade, looking at you).
More ancestry boost options is good. It makes the game more modular to suit tables taste and homebrew settings. No notes.
Can't wait to see the updated Alchemist! I was already looking forward to Treasure Vault, but this makes it even better.
Not too concerned one way or another about the flickmace, though hopefully it'll make it less of a meme you see on the boards/Reddit.

Glad to see Paizo keeps improving.
