I wonder if there's any chance of the PDF being updated to fix any errors? I know in the past there were some changes fixing people's names and such but if this is possible I'd love if the error could be fixed in the Fili prestige class.

I'll update the file tomorrow and we'll get the revised version uploaded ASAP; I will need to check with Tim to see if there are any other corrections that need to be made as well. Still adjusting back to east coast time and a week of tasks that built up while I was in Seattle.

File received! We'll fire this one over to Paizo and see if we can't get it uploaded to replace the one that is there now.

Thanks guys! I feel like I'm a little OCD at times. It was literally the second thing I noticed when I looked at the PDF (the first being the artwork of course). Getting this corrected is going to make me feel better.

[Timitius]

File uploading now. Expect an updated PDF with corrections to the fili and the article "Of Magic and Mettle", and a correction in formatting to "The Jinx" so that the thoughts of Tintsie are in italics.

And minor edit to the Call for Submissions.

Also, did you notice the BOOKMARKS Dain put in the PDF? Now it's super easy to access each article in the issue (and the individual monsters in the bestiary, too!).

Like that? Well, Dain went back and put bookmarks in Wayfinder #6 as well!

Enjoy!!

I hate to say it guys but the Fili text still isn't right. Currently it reads: "Bardic Performance: At 4th level, a fili adds her fili level -3 to her bard level to determine her effective bard level for the purpose of bardic performance. This includes the number of rounds per day she can use her bardic performance and the bardic performances she can create. For example, a bard 2/druid 4/fili 4 has an effective bard level of 3. She can use her bardic performance a number of rounds equal to 16 + her Charisma modifier. She gains new bardic performances as a 6th level bard (of her archetype, if any). When a new fili level is gained and her effective bardic level increases to 7, she can start a bardic performance as a move action instead of a standard action, just like a 7th level bard."

But it should read: "Bardic Performance: At 4th level, a fili adds her fili level -3 to her bard level to determine her effective bard level for the purpose of bardic performance. This includes the number of rounds per day she can use her bardic performance and the bardic performances she can create. For example, a bard 2/druid 4/fili 4 has an effective bard level of 3. She can use her bardic performance a number of rounds equal to 8 + her Charisma modifier. She gains new bardic performances as a 3rd level bard (of her archetype, if any). When a new fili level is gained and her effective bardic level increases to 4th."

-Or- another edit, could be: "Bardic Performance: At 4th level, a fili adds her fili level -3 to her bard level to determine her effective bard level for the purpose of bardic performance. This includes the number of rounds per day she can use her bardic performance and the bardic performances she can create. For example, a bard 2/druid 4/fili 7 has an effective bard level of 6. She can use her bardic performance a number of rounds equal to 16 + her Charisma modifier. She gains new bardic performances as a 6th level bard (of her archetype, if any). When a new fili level is gained and her effective bardic level increases to 7, she can start a bardic performance as a move action instead of a standard action, just like a 7th level bard."

The second edit would be an easier fit for the existing text.

We'll go with this one...with one more correction.

Shouldn't it be:

"She can use her bardic performance a number of rounds equal to 14 + her Charisma modifier. "

I'm counting 4 at 1st, plus 10 more for levels 2-6 (+2 each level after 1st) for a total of 14.

Correct, everyone?

[Drejk]

While we at minor corrections: in Caen Aeon description (page 44/45) ride the lightning[i] spell was marked with "**" like [i]spark which comes from APG - instead of being marked with "***" (or some other sign) and noted as coming from Ultimate Magic.

[Thomas LeBlanc]

14 is correct!

I am not Guy Humual, but I would have used the bardic performance gained by the pathfinder chronicler as a template and left out the example.
/me likes to steal wording from the rules when possible.

PATHFINDER CHRONICLER
Bardic Performance: At 3rd level, a Pathfinder chronicler gains this ability, which functions like the bard class feature of the same name, except that the chronicler's effective bard level is 2 lower than her class level. Levels in this class stack with levels in any other class that grants a similar ability to determine her effective bard level.

transformed to

FILI
Bardic Performance: At 4th level, a fili gains this ability, which functions like the bard class feature of the same name, except that the fili's effective bard level is 3 lower than her class level. Levels in this class stack with levels in any other class that grants a similar ability to determine her effective bard level.

Just changed 2 words and 1 number!

[Guy Humual]

For the record my original version looked like this: "Bardic Music: A fili adds his fili levels -3 to his bard levels to determine the number of rounds he can use his bardic music, the bardic music abilities he can employ, and the power of those abilities. For example a 2nd level bard/ 2nd level druid/ 2nd level rogue/ 5th level fili could use his bardic music for 4+ charisma modifier + 6 rounds per day, use any music ability an 4th level bard could use, and is treated as a 4th level bard for adjudicating the effects of those abilities (such as number of targets, save DC, and so forth)."

Not very elegant at all but the numbers added up correctly.

Tim you might want to hold off updating for a week or so and see if there are any other corrections. I'm sure there will be at least one.

That is SWEET, and elegant. If it doesn't throw the formatting out of whack, I consider that the best option! Thanks Thomas!

And yes, I think we'll hold off a few more days before submitting another updated version....or else Liz will kill me!

You don't want to know what happens when she introduces stage two.

I just noticed that there is an error in mu surname on page 44. I guess it is the matter of font used not supporting Polish letters.

Yipes!

yeah, it's missing the "l" isn't it?

I'll be sure that gets fixed, OK?

Tim

[Timitius]

Also, I sent out emails to all contributors to Wayfinder #7 about getting information from you so that you can get your contributor's copy of #7.

I have received replies and the requested info from a little over half of you. So, please reply to that email! SOON!

Yes, "l" is the standard way of writing down Polish "ł" in English spelling when no Polish font is available (or when one wants to avoid non-Poles from wondering from what kind of letter is that) - the author list on page 2 is showing it correctly. I think that I should stick to English spelling of my surname for now for case of simplicity.
