Bow Down in Fear!

Monsters have long stalked us in the darkness. Within this book, you’ll find a host of these creatures for use in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Face off against archdevils and the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, planar dragons and the legendary wild hunt, proteans and psychopomps, and hundreds more! Some creatures, such as the capricious taniwha, the mysterious green man, or the powerful empyreal lords, might even be willing to provide your heroes aid—if they deserve it!

Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 6 is the sixth must-have volume of monsters for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and serves as a companion to the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook and Pathfinder RPG Bestiary. This imaginative tabletop game builds upon more than 10 years of system development and an open playtest featuring more than 50,000 gamers to create a cutting-edge RPG experience that brings the all-time best-selling set of fantasy rules into a new era.

Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 6 includes:

  • More than 200 different monsters.
  • New player-friendly races, like the crazed monkey goblins, the telepathic albino munavris, the river-dwelling fey naiads, the wolflike rougarou, and the yaddithians of the Elder Mythos.
  • Numerous powerful demigods, from archdevils and Great Old Ones to empyreal lords and qlippoth lords.
  • New animal companions and other allies, such as fierce devil monkeys and loyal clockwork hounds.
  • New templates, including the entothrope and the mongrel giant, to help you get more life out of classic monsters.
  • Appendices to help you find the right monster, including lists by Challenge Rating, monster type, and habitat.
  • Expanded universal monster rules to simplify combat.
  • Challenges for every adventure and every level of play.
  • AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!

And i thought i didn't need this one!

5/5

I had thought when Bestiary 6 came out I wouldn't need it.

How wrong was I!

This book will definitely take it's place as one of the essential Pathfinder books in my collection, if you're waiting to get this, don't! Get it now!

Well done Paizo!

My one complaint is mine had the same s%#+ty yellow binding glue as the first printing of the Starfinder CRB, but I'm not dropping the rating because it is that good (also I still have binding glue leftover from my Starfinder CRB).


A solid addition

4/5

So Bestiary 5 was a bit disappointing to me, but this one is something that did something with Pathfinder I haven't seen in a while: gave me ideas that I wanted to use. A lot of the monsters presented are honestly interesting. As usual, there are some reprints from other products, but I always favor having consolidated lists of things. I won't use everything, but there is enough here that I'll be using a good chunk.

Also, the weremantis reminded me how much I love Portal, so I have to give it to them there.


Upward Trend

5/5

A wide variety of creatures with overall high quality artwork. I like the inclusion of the numerous high CR creatures.

Bestiary 5 and 6 have been my favorite Bestiary books by far.


Unusable

1/5

So me and two other guys from my gaming group ordered this book from amazon. WOW, all of us have missing and or scrambled pages.

I have over 17 missing pages (most of the archdevils content)and more or less 20 pages out of order. I don't know if they are sending all the "special" books down here, but I can assure you I will never buy a physical book from Paizo anymore.

1) they have outright said we're getting all 4 Horsemen and all 8 Archdevils.

2) Just because Gods are above CR 30 doesn't mean there aren't other things above it.

1) Well, now I am surprised. There is still hope some high level Sahkils then and some daemonic harbingers (Aesdurath would be nice ^^).

2) Right. My mistake to say that "above CR 30" equals to god. But the "no stats thing" for power level "above CR 30" is correct. I thought they have even said as much, but perhaps I am just wrongly remembering stuff.


I actually wouldn't mind with Mythic Adventures unexpected power level to have an occasional creature or entity get up to CR 35. :-)

@Baroth, sorry, that's what I was trying to say. That just because the Gods are above CR 30 doesn't mean there aren't other things that are above CR 30 but below a God that can be statted.

I don't see why not. I mean it's already been established that shoes have soles. ;)

I think as fas as I understand JJ in this thread ( http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2svut?Power-level-of-various-gods ), it does seem that anything above CR 30 has no stats.

James Jacobs wrote:

Demigods (which include things like demon lords and archdevils and great old ones) are generally CR 26 to CR 30 in power. Below them are the quasi-deities like nascent demon lords, mythic heroes with the divine source ability, and the like, which are generally CR 21 to CR 25 but can be lower or higher.

Above demigods, which includes all deities who grant 5 domains (note that demigods grant 4 domains, never 5 domains, and quasi-deities grant one to four domains, depending)... there are no rules for how powerful they are. The one thing they share (apart from granting 5 domain choices to clerics) is that they do NOT have stat blocks, and can as a result do more or less anything you want them to be able to do for your story. Obviously, since there's more than one deity at this level, there is a range of power. Pharasma is the most powerful of them all (even more so than Rovagug), but we haven't revealed who is the least powerful, nor have we really pegged the others in on any sort of power tier, since that's kind of irrelevant, since they don't have stats.

However, this might also be interpreted as describing only deities.

I would say that there will be 2-5 CR30's creatures in the book.

My bet is that at least Mephy, Beelzebub and Charon are at 30.


I'm betting Barbatos will be at least 29, if not 30.

Which of the new races are most excited about?

For it would be the Naiad.

*pats Rysky on the shoulder* It's okay he can't hurt you any more.

Also I've decided on sentient carpets that can roll themselves up.

Living statues haunted by dead gods have to be a really high CR or at least have mythic ranks.

I removed some additional posts. Its okay to ask the thread to get back on topic, its not okay to phrase it behind personal attacks or insults. Text is sometimes a hard medium to convey tone in and its easy for sarcasm to come off as meanness.

P.S. A joke here or there isn't a problem, but lets try to not let it become a distraction in the product discussion thread.


Sorry Sara.

But I still think sentient carpets are cool.

Gish's jokes...less so.

Dragon,

Isn't that just a Colossus with divine connections?


It doesn't say how big the statue is, so it might not be a colossus or any type of construct we have seen before in general.


I would like a clay colossus.

The Four Horsemen are in this book, but what about The Fifth Horseman


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I would say "no" since they only said the four horsemen, not five.

I know not in this book, I'm asking about a future book.


3 people marked this as a favorite.

Future books about the Horsemen don't seem that likely, Charles.

Also the Fifth Horsemen is Todd Stewart.


I believe the Oinodaemon is the fifth horseman, actually...


Which is just Todd Stewart in disguise Luthorne!


3 people marked this as a favorite.

I'm pretty sure this is the Fifth Horseman.

...

There were creative differences.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Well maybe for your Distant.

I'm still of the mind it's Todd Stewart.


Isn't 5 members a boyband;)


Dragon,

Depends. Do they not have instruments?

Are cacodaemons an instrument?

Anything is an instrument if you hit it correctly.

I can neither confirm nor deny that I'm the entity known as the First Daemon, the Father/Mother of Oblivion, the Oinodaemon, the Dire Shepherd, the Bound Prince, or the 5th Horseman, etc.

Please direct any questions to my lawyer, Tegresin the Laughing Fiend.

I thought Reid Fleming was a mythic prestige class?

Obscure 'wampi is obscure.

Also, I'm now hungry for Laughing Fiend cheese and Dire Shepherd's Pie.


I can't wait to see the finalized cover.

I'll second that.

Now we just have to wait for it to update, wich will be anytime between now and march:)


I'm betting something of an update before the new year/2017.
