Is the 4th Printing Core Rulebook likely to be the last with major Errata?


Product Discussion

Hi,

Any Paizo lurker be able to make a prediction on the likelihood that the Core Rulebook has reached a point where significant errata/changes are unlikely?

I ask as I waited until the 3rd printing to buy a second copy thinking things will be pretty sorted. But after reading the 3rd --> 4th printing errata my general laziness has deemed I need to consider buying another Core Rulebook (4th printing) to have the latest thoughts from the seer at Paizo at my fingertips.

So any major changes happening in the 5th printing? I have no issues making a few corrections directly in the book but once it involves changing whole paragraphs rather than words it's a pain in the rear.

Thanks for any indication,
Stefan.

We've still got plenty of 4th printings in the warehouse and haven't seriously started discussion of another print run, let alone the work needed to do it. I imagine most of the "major" stuff has been caught, but if we discover a significant problem between now and whatever day we put together the file, I'm fairly confident that we'll fix it.

Thanks, I'll take the risk that nothing "major" will appear in between the 4th and 5th (if/when) printing and get the credit card out. The Core Rulebook has been out so long anything dire has 'more than likely' been covered in errata.

Thanks, your work and community focus is greatly appreciated,
S.

I sell off all my old printings and buy 3 new copies for each printing.
I keep 3 copies at all times for all the players that play at my place (3 games a week.)

I'm a fan of new editions and as far as I'm concerned, if they keep finding things that need fixing I'm happy they keep fixing them.


Just wish the cloaker in beastiary could get a touch up on the wording.
