I really like the feel of the new panache system. With the PF1 swashbuckler and gunslinger I tended to feel panache/grit was a resource I needed to horde and now I feel like its more like gathering power as a kineticist in the sense that the player is better encouraged to earn and expend panache more frequently in a given encounter.
They will not be in the APG. According to a recent interview with Jason B, there isn't enough space to give a large enough firearm selection in the APG, and thus it won't be there. It was high on their priority list, though. Shows what my spidey sense is worth :D
damn, who's chopping onions in here?
these are the kinds of stories that i really like. undead are my favorite bad guys, the atmosphere in the gravelands is great, and ive always been a sucker for that determination in the face of absolute desperation feeling that the knights have. id read a whole series about these two running missions in the gravelands.
An order of the leaf druid that specializes in tree law. While he may not be an expert in tree law, my cleric of Shelyn will go toe to toe with that druid on bird law
Have a nice time with Rappan Athuk and go down the well! Definitely second going down the well. One of my all time favorite character moments is from having done that.
ya know what? i withdraw my kineticist recommendation and throw my support behind the hump monk.
In the game Im currently playing weve created healing arrows, basically arrows with syringes of clw potions. Its a ranged attack to hit, does 1 damage, then heals like a potion.
Broad strokes? Sure, why not? This game is supposed to be fun so if it would be fun to add it to your game then go nuts.
I can't think of a single reason why it couldnt be whatever color the caster wanted it to be each time they cast it. Plain white seems like the easiest to default to unless something else is specified.
I reckon there are lots of reasons. Probably the most obvious one is trading suffering in the next world for power in this one. Theres probably a spectrum of "it cant get worse" to "ill be i can weasle out of this" on the list of reasons why for this. Then theres probably a bunch of people who think devils are superior to everyone else for one reason or another and opt in accepting that the torture is part of the entry fee for being an awesome devil. (everyone in this group probably assume they'll end up as a devil instead of being used as the mortar in the wall of some infernal city cause they "get it") Theres probably some group of people that figures Hell will win in the end anyway so might as well get the torture out of the way now to maybe get a shot at something not terrible at the end of eternity There's also supporting the absolute law and order side of things which probably appeals to a lot of people for security and safety and they accept that part of that stability is a little torture Also, none of those options are mutually exclusive so theres probably as many blends of those ideas and more as there are folks who worship Asmodeus. Also, I guess technically its the soul that was put in me getting tortured, not me specifically since my me-ness gets tossed when Pharasma sends me down the garbage chute so why do I care if some lump of soul stuff gets tortured for eternity? I wont be there to feel it.
It's still a superb feat for making a glaive finessable, but it doesn't make it one-handed. But what does make it one handed is Spear Dancing Spiral and Quarterstaff Mastery. So for the low low price of (checks notes) 7 feats you can one handed finesse a glaive and take the 8th feat to slash some grace. Now, for the fun part. If you also get Amateur Gunslinger (or maybe just take a level of gunslinger, whichevers easier), weapon focus with a gun, Dazzling Display, Quickdraw, and Gun Twirling you can "dual wield" a glaive and a gun without getting bogged down in the TWF rules or the swashbucklers aversion to off handed shenanigans since you can draw and holster the gun as free actions.Granted thats another... 5 feats which means a human fighter could have all of this online at level 10 I think
Another thing to consider is that you don't need all those knowledges at level 1. Yes, a big part of being an inquisitor is identifying monsters so you can bane them but you dont get bane til level 5 so you have some room to build the base of your character before they "grow" into their role as a monster hunter.
I always thought that it was weird that paladins had to be lawful good. Especially when the code demands that all evil monsters be put to death immediately, whether they have committed a crime or not. Murder is murder, bro. That is... just super not at all what the paladin code says

Bring it on. As you wish
As someone currently playing a telekineticist and also eager to get to the point where I can throw buildings, I looked into how much buildings weigh (ok, I googled "how much does a house weigh" and looked at the first result).
I'll preface this by saying that I am by no means a kineticist expert. I'm running a telekineticist now and I focused more on utility than I did damage because it seemed to me when looking into it that was the trade off for some of the awesome things they can do. That being said, I think the way you boost damage for telekineticists is to take telekinetic haul at level 4 and use it to drop houses on people.
I assumed that part of that 2 million population also included the armada
-Keep a vial of dirt from your homeworld with you at all times; it will draw you back there. Screw it, space offerings to all the gods, just to be sure. Whelp, my pilot is going to have holy symbols for a bunch of gods that he cut out of some bulkhead in the bowels of absalom station as close to the starstone as he could get.
s$~@! my covers blown! mothership, pull me out! abort ABORT!
Now, there is one thing I see stopping this infinite loop:Your GM? in the grimdark future of starfinder, the invisible hand has become the shadowy fist
Pretty much, yes. You ever do that thing where in the process of asking a question you realize that youve answered it? I realized too late after posting that yes actually, how much stuff we have in a certain amount of space is the literal definition of density. *face palm*
A starship's density should be about 0.25 metric tons per cubic metre. A jet airliner has an average density of 0.27, but 0.25 is a nicer number to work with for approximations. Knowing nothing about... well anything even tangentially related to starship engineering why is that the density it should be? Is it a "humans and their stuff and their air take up so much space and have so much mass" sort of thing?
Paladin?Charisma skills are often "one roll only". So the party is going to ask a character high a good charisma to do it, and martial classes are not charisma based.
Often we are seen as expendable, indeed we have served as human shields, reactor shielding, and engine lubricant. Though we are nameless, we accept these risks with pride. FOR THE EMPERO... oh sorry, wrong game
im a big fan of stealing ideas from better writers than myself (so... pretty much everyone).
To the everything is relative, ect point, according to the srd a scribe is worth 15gp a day. I'd say that a proper "professional assassin type" is probably as skilled in their field as a scribe is at scribing so I figure thats as good a place as any to start. Theres also a section on modifying the price based on how dangerous the job is. The higher levels are hazardous, deadly, and suicidal and I think it's fair to say that assassining would fall into the deadly category so we can tack on another 3gp per day giving us a total of 18gp for one day of an assassins service. Maybe round that up considering the illegal nature of the work to give us a nice even 20gp per day which I'd say is a fair price compared to the sorts of rewards PCs would get for a day of goblin killin for the mayor of Sandpoint. Then you can increase that 20gp based on the level and/or reputation of the assassin, the cr/level of the target, and maybe whatever other expenses involved.
Kasatha Houses of old. Yessss, I was hoping I could use the Kasatha like the Fallen from Destiny! Good thing I'm really violent and I have this cape
Id stick with the vanilla brawler. You'll be able to spec into grappling using martial flexibility when you want to and grappling becomes less effective when things start being bigger, stronger, and/or having more than 2 legs. With the vanilla brawler you can choose to do nonlethal with your normal punches to knock people out and you get a lot more flexibility than just the strangler. As to feat selection, someone smarter than me once said
forbid female characters from going out in that outfit. tease the spell casters for spending all their time reading. have your character go out for cigarettes then stop showing up to the game.
Again... there is no rule that they CAN. I poked around a little more and the way I understand it now is that using a spellbook is a class feature and all the stuff around it is part of that class feature. So only classes that have the spellbook class feature or a class feature that says it acts like a spellbook can do anything with spellbooks beyond selling them. That being said, if its a homebrew game theres nothing to stop you from houseruling that other people can do stuff with spellbooks.
Because in order to write the spell into your book, you have to learn it. And you don't have that ability as a non-caster. In order to write a spell in a book you just need to make spellcraft checks and any class can put points in spellcraft. Plus bookish rogue lets you learn a different spell by studying it in a book. As far as I can tell, as long as the rogue makes the spellcraft checks theres nothing stopping them from copying spells.

Personally I like weapons with versatility like the Monk's Spade, Nodachi, and Lucerne hammer. Any Gods grant that? as far as i know, there are no gods that have those as favored weapons. however, there is a feat called weapon versatility which will let you change the damage type of your weapon as a swift action. it has weapon focus as a prereq but if youre going with a melee inquisitor you dont need a lot of feats anyway and that +1 bonus will help offset the penalty from power attack. a couple other points too. yeah, the weapon proficiency is a drag on the inquisitor but you mentioned that you were leaning toward half-orc for your race which is a great idea cause a) they get have a bunch of racial bonuses that are almost tailor made for inquisitors and b) they get free proficiency with falchions. also, say you dont go with weapon versatility. dont discredit the simple weapons just because theyre not the best. sure a morning star isnt going to win a dps race, but that one backup weapon will cover the other 2 types of damage that a falchion wont and when you stack judgement and bane on it youre still swinging for the bleachers by any standard that isnt "optimized two handed fighter." also, look at the inquisition list as well as the domains. conversion and heresy replace cha with wis if thats a problem and the persistence inquisition stacks fantastically with a melee half orc inquisitor. at the end of the day, the point of an inquisitor isnt to be the best at anything under ideal circumstances. thats supermans job and inquisitors arent superman. the point of an inquisitor is to be better than everyone else when s**t goes mega sideways. thats batmans job. inquisitors are batman.
optimal shmoptimal. now that i see what youre doing (i crack me up sometimes) this seems like itll be a good time.
Ranger Joe's i always thought it was ranger rick
clearly, there is only one correct answer
Hey everyone, I came up with what I think is a pretty good build for a brawler that I'm rolling up and I was hoping you could make sure I didn't make any mistakes. If I take these feats
Could there maybe be a way to do it using the reach spell metamagic feat?
Low Blow! He's an imp. Anything other than a low blow would miss high.
I love the depiction of Seoni as a bride! I've got an image in my head now of Seoni the bride with the rest of the female iconics as her bridesmaids, at Ye Olde Chypinndaels flinging coins at the male iconics going the full monty.
Playing goblins is fun, but in the games I've played, having the GM control him is a good way to get him attacked by the rest of the party and killed. To most players' minds typically "evil" creature + controlled by GM = enemy. That's what was giving me pause. I was workin on a couple of plans for it going that way but it may just be better to not bait the other guys into attack me. I think it would be very funny if you actually PLAYED a cleric and came in and revived your previous character. Even funnier would be to play a GOBLIN CLERIC and come in and revive your previous character. I like where your head's at Bruunwald. I shall return to the drawing board to plan for that if my GM permits.
Guisarmed and Dangerous
Why is the Pathfinder's pouch Market Price AND Crafting Cost 1,000gp? Shouldn't it have a 2,000gp Market Price OR a 500gp Crafting Cost? ... A wizard did it? midichlorians?spiral energy? typo? Judging by the spells that go into it, I would guess it's supposed to have a 500gp crafting cost. Feather fall, for instance, is situationally useful, but only active in very specific instances. I find ways to make feather fall useful (though I prefer boots of the cat). I have a somewhat unnatural love for having characters whose preferred method of egress is jumping out windows or down pits, or what have you, without really looking. In 3.5 I took care of it with the Rod of Ropes, which I'll add to my favorites list if we can at 3.5 stuff.
I believe the argument is "It may or may not be thematically appropriate, but that is irrelevant because the designers left it off the spell list, presumably for balance issues." If you gm a game and want to add gravity bow to the inquisitor list, that's fine. If you can convince your gm to let your inquisitor have gravity bow, no one will mind. But you asked why inquisitors don't get gravity bow, and the answer is, probably balance.
