Hello fellow pathfinders,
In a campaign that i'm about to run the setting will be steampunk, but i want to make the game high powered. What I had in mind was that the players would be mythic and gestalt. I have experience with these two things because i've played WotW, and done a gestalt RoW. Also, the game will have no spell casting classes, but there will be psionic rules. I have plenty of source books and the pure steam campaign setting book. So my question to you is how should I calculate CR for a mythic gestalt party of 2, and ideas for a psionic mythic path.
Thanks in advance.
Not sure why, but you have 4 identical posts. Flagged the others for removal as double posts.
As for CR, there are definitely more resources for the PCs to use, but the action economy is still the same. Also removal of core casters kinda messes with expected healing and such. It is such a niche setting, you are probably going to have to play it by ear for a bit.
Woot for Pure Steam! Thanks for using our setting, mate! I hope you're enjoying it!
To calculate CR in a mythic game, you first have to factor your PCs effective level. You add 1/2 the PC's mythic tier level (minimum 1) to the PC's character. So a 1st-level\1st-tier PC is effectively a 2nd level character, and can handle CR 2 encounters.
If your NPCs have mythics tiers or ranks, you add 1/2 the NPCs tier or rank (min 1) to its CR. So a 1st-tier CR 1 creature would effectively be a CR 2 creature.
All of these rules can be found HERE.
For the psionic mythic path, I'd suggest taking a look into material from Dreamscarred Press. They released a Mythic Psionics book, called "Psionics Augmented".
Best of luck with your campaign my friend!
