So I'm set to do a Strength of thousands game and was wanting a thematic build for a half-orc magus who brawls with his fists. Was gonna go with unsponsored background and take intimidating glare, fangs, and the feat from mwangi expanse book for orcs. Any suggestions?

anyone who knows rigby knows that rigby loves puns, and dad jokes.

I dont get why Barsala has a +6 to culture, someone please explain please!

I wonder what each pact world’s military might specialize in? The anacites of aballon perhaps at the building of ships and weaponry. While the veskarium contingent is great with “boots on the ground operations”, maybe apostae is phenomenal at stealth missions, while Eox works on the equivalent of wmds.

looking for a feat for a character designed to take a hit and deal damage, with a little talking ability.

If you see something you want pm me with what boons you have and maybe we can work something out.

actively looking for nuar and aphorite,as well as knights of Golarion but if you see something u like send a message with what you are Willing to trade

But there are 6 so far

Any1 know where I can find out what boon the SE us has?

But what is Iteration 177's end game? Is it killing Kadrical? Awakening it? Iteration 177 clearly is more powerful and knowledgeable then anyone knows. Perhaps awakening Kadrical to stop Dhurus,is his plan.

Anyone else lost hope that the additional resources will be updated BEFORE 2nd edition?
They updated in September but that didn't even get the caught all the way up. I personally prefer 1e of over the playtest so far, and am a little annoyed that it seems like the society staff ignores completely what is there main moneymaker currently, for R&D on their next product. When the company that shall not be named switched from 4th to 5th,they stopped making rules for 4th and focused entirely on 5th.
Paizo on the other hand, seems to ignore the fact that they still have a little left in the tank for 1e while putting everything into 2nd.
I know Starfinder society staff is probably smaller by comparison. only putting out a book each quarter I believe, Thursty seems to be upset if things aren't updated within a month of release. There seems to be little communication between pfs staff and the people who play other than saying soon.
Am I out of line or is this a little ridiculous?

so I saw the allegro spell and noticed it isnt on any spell list. is this a typo or am i missing something?

if i found a home game I would definitely do that with the deathless feats but since this is for pfs, I don't believe they are legal.

Edit: just double checked and they are completely legal! wtf?

I'm working on a build of a shifter whose first aspect is wolverine and focuses on staying up and not dying. I'm thinking of doing for feats

Shifter 1st level- weapon focus(claws)
Unbreakable figher 1st total 2nd B - Endurance B- Diehard
Shifter 2nd total 3rd- power attack
Shifter 4th total 5th- wild vigor
Shifter 6th total 7th- toughness

Should I take some intimidation stuff as well?
or should I go unchained barbarian for the rest?
trying to just figure how I can block/absorb as much damage as possible and still survive. I know I ll need a way of getting energy resistances and some dr as well.

I’m not asking you if you buy into it. I’m asking if my understanding is right or wrong and if you can explain your reasoning that would be helpful as well. I know I asked a question (that was poorly worded and didn’t think through the context of what I was saying) in the rules forum, I have Asperger’s and sometimes go straight for a question before thinking it through. Your repose hammerjack just READS confrontational, but I have trouble with Sense motive as it were and probably have a negative to it. If you didn’t mean for it to come across that way sorry for bringing it up.

If I got a merciful fusion would it only apply to the weapon crystal? RAW makes me think so, meaning only a d3 of damage would be nonlethal depending on the crystal.

In order to use a fusion do you have to have a weapon crystal? And can weapon crystals be made from special materials? Solarian weapons and crystals just seem like they need more clarification.

My favorite unlikely theory, cayden gets tricked into having one too many by Torag whose drink was dared by cayden to drink passed what he could handle. The next day, “Torag, where’s Golarion?” “DUDE, WHERE’S OUR PLANET?!”

On a more serious note, some gods such as cayden cailen and Torag just didn’t care as much appeal towards other races. Come on who wants to be friends with a secretive liar who may have poisoned his grandmother for the inheritance?

Two things, does a fusion work only on a Solarian crystal, or does it also affect the solar weapon?
I invested in charisma before soul fire was a thing so I have one of those and was also thinking of getting a merciful fusion, holy fusion and/ or invigorating fusion but was wondering if there were any must have fusions for a Solarian.

So I've been working on my own version of Polyras Ghalraan to an extent. IDK if you would want to, but he works great as a dwarf, since they get a bonus to Con and Wis and Cha isn't a necessary part of the build, plus they are proficient with all advanced melee weapons and get weapon specialization at 3rd level from racial abilities. The only problem is the 20 ft movement but can be fixed with the fleet feat and/or jet dash feat.

So I'm playing a character that I will change race boons, but I was wanting to use a race admittance boon on said character that was gained through playing a scenario.

Nefreet wants a SFS race boon i have, so if he has something you want maybe we can make a 3 way trade?

The Borais are currently available as a possible scenario reward.

I'll have to look through my trade items but I know I have the Vine Leshy race boon for PFS available. I'm interested in your Ikeshti. PM me if you're interested.

will take best offer looking at most starfinder race boons and will consider pathfinder boons too. dont know if there is a boon for it yet but the undead race from pact worlds would be super cool.

So if I wanted 50 ammunition coated with the good alignment I’d have to use an oil of align weapon in order to be cost effective, right?

Is there somewhere it states how much ammunition can an oil be applied to? If I have an oil of bless weapon can it only be applied to 1 arrow, 50 arrows or some other number? I know it says weapon touched in spell description but I thought ammunition was different than a weapon.

if you need a a light spell of equal or higher level to get rid of deeper darkness, why do ppl always talk about a heightened continual flame? wouldnt this just get rid of it once? how do u deal with a creature that has it multiple times a day? wouldnt you need a continual flame heightened to a 4th level spell to overcome and suppress any future deeper darkness?

Was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a good bag. For dice binders, markers, pens & paper and the like. I like the idea of buying something that is called a handy haversack or bag of holding cuz i like supporting those who are a part of the gamer lifestyle, doesnt have to be tho but would make paying a little more for it easier. I liked the look of the leather adventurer's bag from thinkgeek but sadly they dont sell it anymore.

I know offworld designs makes a "Handy haversack" and thinkgeek makes a backpack of holding but wasnt sure how good they were, anyone who has one of these, please let me know if they are any good.

doesnt have to be a gamer lifestyle bag as long as its good tho, and if this is wrong forum, sorry! dont come to this section alot.

yes I will be the BSF who is taking the damage for allies as a result of the feat.

I want to play a worshipper of Zon-Kuthon who gives allies betrayal feats but wasn’t sure what class would work best for it. I don’t want for him to use on allies. I want my character to tank essentially the damage as much as possible.

I is sad panda then. guess I got to start another Solarion.

is it possible to retrain a theme in organized play? I have a solarion who is a priest of sarenrae who i want to be a solar disciple but he is 3rd level.

The synthesist summoner is a good idea but doesn’t fit Tony Stark. Yes he is charismatic, but I think of him as first and foremost a genius, thus making intelligent important for the character in creating the armor.
Also like the suggestions Meirril!

I know its been done before/ asked about many times, but since its unlikely anything new will come out in terms of making it easier to make ironman, I am starting a rise of the runelord campaign and want to play Tony Stark/Ironman.

Stats are

str-10
dex-13
con-15
Int-19
Wis-13
Cha-16

I can probably move the stats around but I'd like to keep cha and int as is.

I was thinking arcanist and work towards getting create construct and making construct armor, as well as using a few levels of occultist to pick up some implements and maybe even make it a battle host with full plate since ideally you have numerous armors for different occasions.

traits would be spark of creation, deft dodger, and scholar of the ancients.

first exploit would be the sonic blast exploit to mimic his hand blasters, or the force missile.

my grippli shaman/medium needs feats for legendary influence. he has weapon finesse already and i was thinking for archmage and hierophant i would take expanded arcana, and the guardian saving shield, champion piranha strike, and no idea for trickster. tips, tricks, or recommendations?

mechanic, envoy, or technomancer? envoy seems almost too poetic, technomancer for all the magic missiles, or a gearhead witchwyrd just seems funny.

also not sure about themes.

It says in the weapon crystal section it needs a crystal to be magic. But can it otherwise affect incorporeals? Couldn't find anything on it. Should I assume no?

I believe I am supposed to get a witchwyrd for a convention tomorrow, but was informed that we are getting nuar or maraquoi for some unknown reason. anyone have or getting a witchwyrd soon that wants one of those two?

thats ridiculous. I was going partially because I thought id be able to get a witchwyrd. If I don't get one, I will be very salty.

Is there a map that shows what areas fall into what mega region? I live in Virginia which I thought got the witchwyrd and other one I can’t think of that use staves and are NE. But for a local (in-state) con I was told we get space cows. And I wanted a witchwyrd...

Riftwarden from Paths of Prestige MIGHT could work.

Rules are there for a reason and exceptions to the rule should not be the norm maybe?

enlarge person + long arm still works

I'm kind of in the school of anecdotal experiences isnt evidence of his usefulness. people might lie, misremember, embellish, or just get lucky, statistics dont. The combat statistics of Harsk dont seem to justify his use as a combat character. Yes he can do other things such as spot MECHANICAL traps (not magic), track, handle animals, serve as a "stealther" or whatever, but what he spends most of his feats on just arent worth it is the way it seems.

what happens when a new player shows up and they wanna play an iconic role? and you say you can but it'll suck for what it is intended to do. I'd sigh and try something else out.

It sounds like an argument over fluff vs. crunch.

Why is it wrong to want a flavorful character that mechanically is good at what its intended for?

IMO Harsk doesnt fit this bill, he is intended as a character for range, but if he is shooting at an engaged enemy, he will rarely hit. In pfs where you are going to see Harsk, there is a good chance that enemy will be engaged by another PC so have fun with missing in combat.

why is it so wrong to want a functional character? yes an individual can have fun with a poorly made character but they can be useless, or even detrimental to a party. I'm not saying everyone needs to make a character who is capable of fight the tarrasque by themselves, but a character who can't do anything for the group other than be a target which in turn just means another person to drain resources for keeping in the game in one way or another is no fun. Being carried through an adventure is no fun and carrying people CAN (not always) be annoying depending on the person carried.

oh just move to the starfinder society system and just have grand lodge become the mercs and the scarab sages the archaeologists, and so on and so forth
