I've not been told much, that's all. I was given the impression that being xx.2 after 12 could cause problems, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Nope, there's no problem in it - I think people just find it silly that you'll have to run around the rest of your career with .2 xp, as you won't be able to get that .1 xp to actually make them matter.

Of course - if you don't complete a module and therefore don't get the full 3 xp - then the .2 xp WILL matter :)

Definitely time to pay for that Bane(construct) upgrade.

I welcome the challenge of constructs and animated objects.

Witches, who usually Slumber away scenario after scenario, won't be as much of a threat.

Zen Archers, who usually Flurry away scenario after scenario, won't be as effective against objects.

Wizards with 1 level of Orc/Dragon/whatever Sorcerer will have their massive fireballs halved in damage.

Paladins can't smite either.

Those without the +3000gp for Adamantine will have to deal with DR.

And neither is effected by Bluff, Charm, Dominate, negative energy.

I like where they're going with this =).

Dark Archive 5/5 *

golem bane scarabs will be sold out soon.

Domo arigato Mr. Roboto

Perhaps we get to face C-3pio as a final boss sometime. With his familiar R2D2

That would definitely give us all an excuse to play those undine characters.

Its strange , its not the first time someone has told me that they couldnt play a Module because they were XX.2

I do know some players who want to switch to Slow Progression after leveling, and you can't do that when you cross over a level with a module.

Other than that or being 11.2 (and thus would be past the point of being able to start Eyes of the Ten), nonsense.

Personally, I would prefer gillman to either undine or merfolk.

Back on topic: Does anyone suppose we will see a rash of "Robot Fighters", maybe rangers with favored enemy construct, like we saw Paladins at the beginning of Season 5?

I prefer the term "Robot Battler."

I dont think your worries are necessary though. It takes strength and discipline to battle the evil-natured robots, but these qualities are not so uncommon.

I am not a fan of robots in pathfinder. Nor am I a fan of guns,samurai and ninjas. However, I can understand WHY they made these choices and are branching out. I just hope that the adventure paths and such do not turn into a scifi orgy. That would suck hard

Guys, most of Numeria is filled with barbarians. We'll probably see Mi-Go more than robots, and fight wizards and sorcerers as well as barbarians. Sure, we'll see constructs that are more akin to robots and androids. But I am quite certain that the robot angle is not going to be the sole interest for Season 6.

And gunslingers... no, wait, gunslingers will be largely unaffected by this.

Only if they're caused by haunt triggers.

Liberty's Edge 3/5

I just hope that, similar to the season of the Risen Rune, that the vast majority of the adventures take place in one region of Golarion. I really enjoyed getting to know more about Varisia in the former, and would enjoy 'deep diving' into what it's like to try and survive in Numeria, as well (presuming everyones' guess regarding Season 6 focus is correct).

what i'd seriously love to see is a season set in or very connected to the crown of the world, and specifically the nameless spires.

robots would be optional. eldritch horrors probably not optional.

Silver Crusade 3/5

Huh...

I'm actually quite surprised. I was expecting an Osirion focus to go alongside Mummy's Mask. Maybe that fits with the events of the latter half of season 5 instead.

I'm happy with this though. Numeria is pretty damn cool.

@FallofCamelot: Mummy's Mask should be wrapping up at the same time Season 6, and Iron Gods, is just getting started.

An entire gothic horror themed season would be glorious.

Reminds me of a local joke about scenarios.

We are waiting for a scenario where you are underwater, during a chase scene in a fire while running through a Haunt.

Edit: I know swarms fit some where in there too.

You're chasing a swarm? Oooh. Better, being chased by.

YES! Sounds like it is time to buy that pet Rust Monster that I have been wanting! And here momma said it was a foolish impulse buy. We will show her...

...unless of course we are fighting wooden robots, then we are boned.

Hmm, perhaps if I also buy a dire termite?

Androids are immune to morale penalties/bonuses due to their stoical nature. So we won't be seeing any android barbarians then.

Oh well, I will be excited to see a group of Druid androids. They are more than meets the eye.

Hey Bob, does that owl look funny to you?

I could go for an android boon. I would totally create a Data clone.

It better not be just a bunch of constructs thats hardly fair to casters. I fought a golem this past weekend and freakin crap they suck for a rogue sorcerer wizard and amiri who cant hit crap party. only won cause of flank sneak attack crit. But please no, thats quite the year-long debuff for casters.

To be fair, not all constructs are immune to magic, only Golems. There are plenty of non-Golem constructs to fight.

I doubt this will be the case.

Currently we're in the Year of the Demon, and several of the scenarios so far don't have any demons in them. I imagine that if next year is the "Year of the Robot," there will be a few scenarios where constructs are featured, but aren't the only combat. There are plenty of other horrors in Numeria to challenge Pathfinders.

The Season Six metaplot climaxes with #6-22: The Scales of Abadar, a courtroom scenario where PCs debate Isaac Aasimar's Three Rules of Robotics.

If the monster is immune to magic, its immune to all spells that allow spell resistance, so use spells that don't rely on it.

Use grease to trip it for the martials, or Summon in a lantern archon clown car and laser it to death,

I don't know what's funnier.

Believing that's how you intentionally spelled his name.

Or wondering if your auto-correct replaced his last name with "Aasimar".
