Honestly, I've been thinking about joining some PFS games, if only to see how they go. I have a personal preference for home games, but the concept of the PFS intrigues me.
So I don't start a new thread, I apologize for semi-thread jacking yours, I'll ask here.
Can someone link me to a good place to start for the rules on PFS?
Also, good luck on your PFS play northbrb. Or, if you've played already, good luck on that particular adventure xD.

Cool, thanks Curaigh.
happened to find the list of what is apparently legal and not legal... I am now ultra sad panda my cross-blooded envenomed/pestilence wildblooded elf is not legal. I really wanted to play my poisoner. (at least I'm assuming the wildblood and crossblood archetypes are in chapter 2 of UM. I use SRD for it, havent managed to get the book yet).
Good luck on the game on saturday man. From what you're asking about I'm going to guess some sort of half-orc rogue or inquisitor?

Only the 2nd printing of this book or the 1st printing augmented by the current errata (released 7/21/11) are legal for play in Pathfinder Society Organized Play. Everything in this book is legal for play with the following two exceptions: a pseudodragon is not legal for purchase unless you're a wizard with the Improved Familiar feat and elephants are never legal for play.
The skeleton key appears to be allowed.

The Skeleton Key is in the Adventurers Armory
Dang, I must be tired. it took me too long to find what is right in front of me (kept typing wrongly in ctrl-f :)
from the guide:
All mundane (completely nonmagical) weapons, armor, equipment, and alchemical gear found in any other source that is legal for play are
considered always available.
from the additional resources:
Please double check my work, but (unless it is magical) it looks legit.
Have fun this weekend :)
EDIT: ninjad by starglim ( also: wtf elephants are never legal for play? :)

Archetypes are in Chapter 1 (Spellcasters) of UM. Chapter 2 includes stuff like Words of Power.

lol. Actually I was hoping to play an elephant druid, or have a pachyderm familiar perched on my wizard's shoulder, or an BBElephantG :)

When I go to a PFS event do I need my PFS card printed out with me or will all iI need is my PFS ID number, I ask because I do not have a printer.
Usually just your number is good enough. Make sure you have your character number as well (i.e. your first character is your number followed by a -1 second -2 and so on).
I hope you have fun and welcome to PFS.

1 person marked this as a favorite. |
I've had two PFS experiences now and while enjoyable are comparable to a meal at McDonalds.
The PFS games I played are generally themed so as to fit all comers, not overly complex, somewhat filling but a bit lacking in the same feeling that a home cooked meal would give.
Which actually is a sort of complement here. It can be VERY hard to cook for strangers, even more so when you aren't even sure how the dinner guests will even interact with each other, let alone what they want to eat.
I prefer my 'home cooked meals' but for a guy away from home and hungry to play, PFS games at least are pleasant on the tongue and leaves you feeling somewhat satiated.
I've heard that some adventures can be real tough. I don't have the experience to say that is the case as yet - so far so good here.

Being an organized play entity, You'll be required to fill out on a "sign-in" sheet with your character number, character name, and faction that your character is part of.
