I apologize it this has been noted elsewhere, but I have found few mistakes on the latest Pathfinder RPG character sheet.
In the Skills section, Spellcraft is listed as being a Dex based skill instead of Int based. Swim is also listed as being a Dex based skill when it should be Str based.
While we are at it, this is not a mistake, but I think there should be a spot on each skill line to indicate the +3 bonus one gets when one has ranks in a class skill (a trained, class skill, in other words). I know there is a small misc. bonus blank, but that gets filled up by other bonuses and can get messy pretty quickly. It seems like there should be both the misc. bonus blank AND a Trained/Class skill blank.
Has anyone found other mistakes? Perhaps more importantly, have the good people at Paizo mentioned a revised and corrected character sheet?

Yeah, Marc, I've corrected those two skills, too. I didn't find any other mistakes, per se, but:
- In the abilities section, after the box for "ability modifier" there's a box for "bonus or penalty" and then a box for "modifier". What's that last box supposed to be for?
- Under the skills section, and in the middle of the "Spells" section on page 2, are places for "conditional modifiers". Modifiers to what? Is that just a place for notes?
- Most races have bonuses to Perception based on which sense is involved. It would be nice to have that information near Perception.
- Why is "Spell Resistance" tucked in the attack bonus section? Shouldn't it be with the defenses, like armor class and saving throws?
- Is there any chance the sheet could be formatted in landscape? That would give us more space for the modifiers for each skill.

I believe the last two columns are for temporary bonuses/penalties and the resultant modifiers.
I don't suppose we could make the PDF editable while we're at it? I'd love to be able to just type up my characters on my computer...

Hey there Everybody,
We fixed up these changes on the Beta version of the character sheet. You will be able to grab a PDF of this sheet when the Beta is released in August...
That said.. I will see if I can get this, at least, out a bit early.

That's great to hear Jason. You guys really are awesome!
Will there be class specific character sheets or just a space for say, rage points (for instance), on the regular sheet?
You guys are awesome by the way. Thanks!

Right now, we are just doing a generic character sheet with plenty of space for you to record your class abilities, such as rage points.
That said, I would love to do class specific sheets.

Hi Jason,
I haven't had a chance to check ... has the character sheet beem corrected yet?
Thanks!
Jason,
I'd like to put my stylist to work on Pathfinder to make a character sheet. I'd like to get your opinion on this first, however.
Thanks.

I really hate to be a pain, but can we PLEASE get the mistakes on the character sheet fixed???
It's really only 2 things (the Spellcraft and Swim stats). Seriously, I do this for a living - it would take 15 minutes all told to get a new PDF uploaded ...
I even tried to edit the PDF using Acrobat Professional, but it wouldn't let me - I would need the original In Design file.
Come on ... PRETTY PLEASE can you get this bad box fixed asap???
Thanks!!!

I can't speak for the official sheet, but take a look at mine until they get it repaired.

It "may" only take 15 minutes, but that does not mean it is the only work item on his plate. In fact I bet I can guarantee that there are probably a hundred other more important items on the agenda. Be patient give them a chance.
Cheers!

Let me check this week, but I believe I've got a fixed version.
One of my gamers does the Adobe thing for a living....
Anyone that wants it can e-mail me at jaye dot sonia at gmail dot com with Pathfinder Character Sheet in the subject block and I'll e-mail it out.
(And Paizo, this goes for you guys, too)
;)
Cheers,
Jaye
PS... I forget who did it, but someone on the boards did an awesome 6 page horizon-orientated sheet that my guy tweaked in a big way. I think the original file name was char_Sheet_pfrpg_a3.pdf. (I'll look it up so we can give the original designed full credit).
Either way, my player added drop down boxes to it, added all the Feats, fixed the skills so they auto-add, linked everything to ability scores, and did a bunch of other stuff and then made it savable. I'll share it, too.

JayeThe Paizo one from the Alpha 3 book has been the one that I liked best of all the sheets that have been made thus far except for the mistakes on the skills, I too have been waiting for a while for someone to release an updated version of that sheet. All of the other sheets that I looked at had their good points but then they neglected to include something from the Paizo sheet that I liked or they were bigger or more graphically intense than was necessary for a character sheet and then when the person who had the graphically intense sheet did a printer friendly version it printed out to light to be of much use over the long term. I just keep coming back to Paizo's sheet.

It's not a bad sheet. The new Necro Sheet is nice, too.
