1st Edition Boons


Pathfinder Society Playtest

Liberty's Edge 5/5

Are any of the boons from 1st edition going to have any effect in 2nd? Talking race boons or any others be it hellbound, haunted, or mounted tradition. On the same note will the Gencon boon for this year have any effect in 2nd edition? I know it sounds selfish, but I would rather not gm for a boon that I'm not going to use.

Would like a reply soon, so I can let you guys know if I will still GM at Gencon or not.

There is already a thread started by Tonya on this topic. Flagging to be combined.

I don't see an answer being provided so you should make your decision now.

Not to be mean, but thanks for being dismissive. Your answer is not an answer from a Paizo Employee, which is what I am hoping for here. I'm also trying to ask it point blank so we could get a straight answer. I was also hoping they would realize there is some urgency desired in the answer. Honestly, this seems like something they should have been prepared to answer. They like to ask us questions that we will endlessly debate, when really we just want a definitive answer from them.

Sorry my blunt answer came off as being dismissive. I was trying to be frank and honest with my assessment. The Playtest was announced less than a week ago. It is way too early to believe an answer to your question can be given because I don't think very much has been determined.

One thing we know is that GM Stars are not going to be carried forward. But that could change as time passes.

To ask (really demand) a response is not likely to happen any time soon.

Definitive answers will come. I just don't think it will happen right now, which is what you are asking for.

You'd also probably get a faster answer in the Call to Vol thread.

Thanks. Posted it there too. And I feel like they should have been prepared for this question.

They may have anticipated the question but not yet determined the answer.

Heh, I still have a Night of the Pale boon from 12/31/2011 that I have not used.

Its not that they are not prepared for the question, it is that since the core rules are not even finalized, its hard to decide on what boons if any would be applicable in the new system. Based on their commentary so far, I would not expect a final, firm answer until the play test is over and they (being PFS leadership) get a better idea of what the 2E rules will be from the design team

To quote from email when I asked the leads: "We can certainly sympathize with your concerns regarding 2E and the playtest, but that is a question that may not be fully answered until well after Gen Con. We will need you to consider your options and confirm or reject the offer by the end of the month so we can proceed with the next steps in the organizing process.
Thank You,
GenConLeads"
