Ah. My bad!
You could say that wood does have a composite blast of wood+wood and call it "verdant blast".
If you're going to do that, you might as well check out Kineticists of Porphyra which actually does give them a composite, and one of the later books also gives them a basic talent, making it almost like a real element.
Where exactly does the dimension of dreams and the dimension of time reside in Pathfinder Multiverse? In the ethereal plane or maybe the astral plane? Also, are we getting stats for all four evil-aligned elemental lords in this book? What about the good-aligned elemental lords? Will we see possible stats for them as well (if they were to be released somehow)?
um, I'm new to Pathfinder and will start with Society on Thursday. I just preordered the Core and this book.
Is the Planar Sneak an appropriate class for beginners?
I wont be able to be a kineticist unfortunately as the core and this book will be the only books I'll have.
What is an appropriate beginner friendly class or archetype I could have that fits with the elemental-plane focus that Society currently has?
I was originally gonna get the advanced class book but alas, I had my heart set on Vampire-hunting and methinks there will be few on the Elemental Planes.
So I got this book instead!
(p.s., I hope maybe I'm wrong and there ARE vampires in some of em :)

The planar sneak is a rogue archetype, which is a great fit for your Core Rulebook. Rather than provide a lot of active options that you'll need to remember and activate, the archetype provides some very handy passive benefits that fit well with Season 8 of the organized play campaign.
+1 to John Compton for being helpful!
I for one welcome our elemental overlords.

The Spheres (Air), The Slipped Vein (Earth), The Mother of Serpents (Fire) and Axtarr, Firros, and Palixna (Water) are my favorite mysteries from each of the four planes.
About the Elemental Lords, I knew I would love reading about Kelizandri, but I was surprised while every piece of information about him exceeding my expectations. We didn't get his artwork, but I'm happy to know that he is the most imposing creature in his plane and maybe even among the four lords.
Hshurha lost her plaything... Now she hates butterflies.

Kelizandri is pretty neat, Gold.

Do you believe that I never noticed that he doesn't grant access to the scalykind domain, nor even the dragon subdomain? And while I was surprised, it's not like that made him less neat... XD

That for dragon lovers! This book will even satisfy your dragon obsession. The four elemental primal dragon breeds did get good write-ups about their society, as well as their rule in the elemental planes "machinations".
There's even a beautiful art for a really exotic cloud dragon mentioned in the book.

I love Cloud Dragons! In fact, Primal Dragons are my favorite Dragons. Good thing I put this on my Christmas list!
Running a game that is about to take a visit to the elemental plane of air here. The book mentions a few times how gravity is subjective, and a character can control the direction that they fall with a wisdom check. I can't find the actual DC for these checks anywhere in the book, however. Any help? Did I miss it?
Awesome. Thank you, Luthorne!

Been enjoying the book, could read planar gazetteers all day. Happy to get city write ups, lavaloch has found a place in my heart. Wish there was a map or two, would trade a couple monster for a map. Loved the art, +1 mother of serpents.

Missed this, but hooray, Lavaloch!
I had oodles of fun writing up the description of that locale. I wanted a place that would really work for higher level adventurers wanting to 'get involved' in the ongoing planar conflict between Earth and Fire. Amanda (rightly so) had to pull back some of my more gratuitous descriptions of the fortress... :)

For anyone looking for more products to complement this book or continue their planar adventures, Lost Spheres Publishing is currently in the middle of a Kickstarter for "City of Seven Seraphs", a planar cityscape campaign setting featuring the work of luminaries like Colin "Planescape and Baldur's Gate 2" McComb, Todd Stewart, Liz Courts, and more!

I second the above post. The updates look absolutely fantastic, real gonzo stuff on par with any of the original Planescape stuff.
