Want: Undine Have: A crap ton of figures to trade and Worldwound Gambit book + boon to trade. Boon:
Choose one of the following three boons for your character and cross the rest off the Chronicle sheet:
Demonic Scholar: You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (planes) checks when making checks regarding demons. Opportunistic Strike: Your experience fighting demons in the Worldwound and your patience carrying out a long con has granted you insight into when and where demons are the most vulnerable. At any time in the future, when fighting a creature of the demon subtype, you may recognize an opening for an opportunistic strike. As an immediate action, you may declare a single attack roll to be an opportunistic strike, allowing you to bypass the demon’s damage reduction of a value equal to your base attack bonus on a single attack. Once this attack has been made, the GM should cross off this boon. The Long Con: Your experiences bringing down the Tower of Yath have honed your skills at deceiving those who worship Abyssal forces. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Bluff checks made against demonic cultists in noncombat situations. Sorry about the repost it wouldn't let me edit my last post.
How much do Undead enemies come up in PFS? I am making a Dhampir Kinslayer (don't worry I am trading for the boon) and I am worried that he will be too focused on undead to be useful. I mean, if undead show up every other adventure that wouldn't be too bad since that means I shine everyother module but I just want some advice from people who have played more than me. And on a side note, any general advice for a Kinslayer in PFS?
1. Can I gain boons by playing at tables that occur at cons or anyway by playing or is it restricted to GMing? 2. I read that I can get the Dhampir boon by GMing certain society games? Is that true? And if so how do I do it? 3. Can I get boons by attending local events that are happening at my location but are not cons? For example my local society is having a big get-together that will be having "special" games for pathfinders to participate in. Thank you to anyone who helps me answer these questions.

So if I wanted to add a boon to a new character but I already used it on another one, I would have to buy the book again?
Hey guys. I was thinking of making my first real PFS character to be an Ancient Lore Keeper, due to the fact that I like skills and being a character that talks a ton. Does anyone know the best revelation for a Lore Keeper that focuses on the skill aspect of the racial archetype. My goal is to make the most optimal Lore Keeper. Can anyone help with spells? Right now I am thinking Time due to the rerolls and the general great revelations. Maybe wood to create an archer Mage? Please note this is a repost from the PFS page, because I was told this would be a better place.

Out of the above classes, which one do you guys think would be the best for a face of the party and for skills. I am thinking Ancient Lore Keeper with Time due to rerolling knowledge checks and high charisma, but apparently bards are good as well. Somewhat related question, if I play as a Halfling/Gnome how much differently will I be treated in PFS in a roleplay perspective.
So I decided to make a list of all Pathfinder Society Legal Racial Archetypes, so people know what I and other like minded individuals are looking for. Please be warned this is initial race legal classes for PFS. Exarch - Inquisitor - Dwarf

I think Elven Ancient Lore Keeper is the class I will choose, cause I like being a class that has a lot of skills and be the face of the party.

Yeah I have been noticing a lot of the suggestions have been for characters that can't be used and since I have only started playing a month ago I don't have any boons. I hope to be able to use their suggestions in the future however. And thank you for clearing up Blood God Disciple for me.

Yeah but would he be good enough for a PFS game? Or does it really matter what class I am. I have only played one PFS game and We Be Goblins so I am still new to this.
Also, in regards to what talbanus said, what I do is make a character and focus them around a combat element and optimize it, and then make a story that matches all of the decisions I made for the character. Right now, I am focusing on archetypes or race exclusives for pathfinder so any help in regards to what works in PFS and one that I can get to level 12 would be great. I also play almost any role, but I like being the leader and using skill checks.
I am creating some characters for PFS and I wanted to know people's opinions on their favorite/the best racial archetype that can be used in PFS. Personally, I think I will be doing a Bonded Witch that uses dexterity as well as intelligence to support and hurt. But if anyone knows a good racial archetype for a first time player, it would be much appreciated.
I am really new to this so I do not know if asking this question is allowed, but does anyone know of a play by post that I could start to learn how to play pathfinders. I have the beginners box and my core rule book is coming soon, but I actually haven't played a real game with other players yet. It is mostly due to the fact that no one I know in real life will play the game. Can anyone help me? |
