Awesome, thanks!

2/5

I am disappointed with the Strship changes. My feelings for the book being released to early is only reinforce by this. I find this very dissapointing with the amount of “mistakes” in this book.

I really think they need to take another several months to RE-EDIT the book. I don’t see the issues being with the mechanics. I feel the new updates just done were oversights to the Rulebook and were supposed to be changed. I am hoping that I am wrong and they decided the DC’s needed to be changed.

The reasoning why things were published is unclear, but it was clear that starship combat DCs for higher levels needed to be changed so that they would actually be possible. For example, previously the maneuver piloting check was DC 15+ 2x tier, which meant a DC35 at level 10. A PC optimized for piloting can have around a +21 bonus at level 10 (max ranks, +5 Dex, class skill, skill focus), meaning they would need to roll a 14 to do that. If you had someone who is filling in as a secondary pilot because of party composition, then you were out of luck.

I have created a document, based on the Into the Unknown Starship combat handouts, that incorporates the new FAQs. It can be located here.

Please let me know what you think and if I need to make any changes.

As always, multiple people are working on the same thing. Over in the Starfinder General Discussion another person also has the roles fleshed out. Here is the link to the his post.
