Do you have any cool builds you want to share?
Being a big fan of Big Sticks I've been fiddling around with a barbarian. As I like damage I went for a Dwarven Barbarian with the giant totem.
Dwarf Barb
STR 18 DEX 14 CON 16 INT 10 WIS 12 CHA 8
Feats
Ancient Blood
Sudden Charge
Swipe
Cleave
Raging Athlete/ Sudden Leap
Maul +4 1d12+10
Not sure where to take it from here but prolly cleave feats and investing skills and feats in athletics, survival and possibly intimidate? I only get my first point of resonance at level 4 so that might be a bit late?
Goblin Alchemist level 6
Str14, Dex18, Con16, Int18, Wis10, Cha14
Ancestry Feats: Flame Heart (1), Burn It (5)
Class Feats: Far Lobber (1), Rogue Dedication (2), Rogue Feat - Quick Draw (4), Calculated Splash (6)
General Feat: Remarkable Resonance
3 attacks, Alchemist Fire 2d8+1+3persistent+4 splash(from Int)
So 3 x 2d8+8 fire damage
The quick draw feat allows a strike on my interact action to draw a weapon (bomb). Because the multiple attack penalty occurs only on attack actions, and this feat uses an interact action to strike, then you can draw three bombs and attack with them at your highest attack.
Here's the reference:
"The second time you use an attack action (anything with
the attack trait) during your turn, you take a –5 penalty
to your attack roll. On your third attack (and any
subsequent attacks if you have a way to take more) you
take a –10 penalty."
Also the alchemist class states alchemist's fire is 1d6, but the item entry says 1d8...

Strike absolutely has the attack keyword. I believe he's making the argument that his action is doing the strike instead of his character doing it. I think that's a farfetched interpretation personally, but the rules are new.

Been working on a strength rogue, using intimidation, You're Next, and Dread Striker to line up death chains.** spoiler omitted **Works out better than I had thought. Medicine stuff is mostly because I like battle medic (though it might be better off saving it for a few levels later, when crit fails aren't options for the DC 20 check). Uses athletics and intimidation to make foes flat-footed, then swings with the hatchet mostly chosen for not being an iconic rogue weapon.
I like your hatchet man. Very spooky weapon choice! Can I ask why Assurance? It seems like it wouldn't see too much use, as it's only better than your rolling a 5 or 6.

lvl3: Shield Prof, Wep Expertise(bows)

The idea is to use hand crossbow + shield when needing the defense for the increase from Crossbow Ace. (just realized I'd have to drop shield to reload so maybe no hand crossbows). Or using a normal crossbow if being able to stay at range.
Then from here I can either take favored aim/running reload or go directly into the cleric spellcasting for Magic Weapon and Crisis of Faith.

Dunno about them, but as a person who rolls regularly low, and knowing a friend who rolls either 1s or 20s but at the wrong time, lemme tell you I'm gonna love that feat for my characters.

I think you've missed a stat boost. I'm counting +2 Str/Dex for elf, negating the -2 Con with the free boost, +2 Str/Dex for Acrobat background, and +2 Dex/Con/Int/Wis with your four level 1 boosts. You should also get +2 to Dex by virtue of being a fighter, leaving your starting stats at:
Str 14, Dex 18, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 12, Cha 10
Hmm... I should not have. Let me see...
Ancestry: +2 Dex, -2 Con, +2 Int, +2 Wis
Background: +2 Str, +2 Con
Class: +2 Dex
Level: +2 Str, +2 Dex, +2 Con, +2 Int
Which makes...
Str: 14 (10 + 0A + 2B + 0C + 2L)
Dex: 16 (10 + 2A + 0B + 2C + 2L)
Con: 12 (10 - 2A + 2B + 0C + 2L)

Wis: 12 (10 + 2A + 0B + 0C + 0L)
Cha: 10 (10 + 0A + 0B + 0C + 0L)
Disclaimer: Regarding the feat choices, I just went with I thought would look appropriately suitable for an agile and fast swordsman who is light on his feet (yes, despite his choice of weapon) and can at the very least handle himself in the charm and wit department. No idea how good or optimal they are.
Yeah, I think I can see that. But given his use of a non-finesse non-agile weapon in combination with a light or medium armor (preferably the former since he is going to be getting sneaky now and then) I went with keeping his Strength and Dexterity close to each other. Constitution needs to be a bit respectable at least I think and I always like to have a fair number of skills. Wisdom for the Will saves and Charisma for the Resonance thingy.
Basically he is all over the place and not sure how capable in combat situations, but if or when he dies he will do so in the coolest and wittiest way possible. :-P
Not sure if I would go with agile or non-agile weapons, i.e. shortswords or scimitars, but judging from the various two-weapon fighting fighter class feats, it seems that both choices have both advantages and disadvantages. Twin Parry for example provides a greater AC bonus if neither weapon is agile. And down the road Agile Grace and Two-Weapon Flurry do not actually work together if I understand their descriptive texts correctly.

I would consider lowering lowering Wisdom by 2 and getting Iron Will to make up for it, or lowering Constitution by 2 (yikes!) and grabbing Toughness. I think it's worth an 18 in your starting stat due to how important crits are.
There's no reason to commit to a specific type of sword from the beginning, although keep in mind that scimitars are not finessable. The only non-agile finessable sword I can see is the rapier, so if you would like to dual-wield those, that's your opportunity to take advantage of Twin Parry. If you don't care about that, I would go rapier and short sword.
Has anyone been able to build anything that crits reliably versus level appropriate foes?
Cause one of the big selling points in the build up was the new critical rules (which sounded really cool) but looking at to hit and AC math in a PC vs. PC fight it looks that you will actually be critting less than in PF1

I think that might not be taking into account conditional and circumstance bonuses available.
Let's say F. Castor's fighter (+5 to attack if he has 18 Dex) is fighting a Boggard Scout (AC 15). He hits on a 10, and crits only on a 20. That gives him a 55% chance of hitting on his first attack. However, he's got Double Slice, so when he attacks with both weapons he's actually got a 80% chance of hitting once and a 10% chance of critting once.
Now to add some bonuses! If the foe is flanked (-2 conditional penalty to AC), and F. Castor also has an ally that wants to use Assist (+2 circumstance bonus to all attacks). An allied bard has also used inspire courage (+1 conditional bonus to all attacks, as well as damage).
F. Castor now has a +8 to attack against an AC of 13. He hits on a 5 and crits on a 15, which is a 96% chance of hitting once and a 51% chance of critting at least once. He even has a 9% chance of critting with both attacks. The poor boggard has 20hp, and would likely not survive this.
...Maybe F. Castor's acrobat should use starknives if he can reliably get these boosts. Or swap to strength and dual wield a pick and a light pick.

Honestly, because I haven't gone over the skill feats too thoroughly yet (right now I'm picking through the spell lists and making a document that reorganizes them). Athletics might be a more sensible choice of skill for it, since Coercion and Demoralizing are incredibly level dependent.
Thanks for the input folks...very insightful! Especially the flat footed condition seems quite simple to come by as it can easily be set up without using an attack action. I was actually considering whether feinting is an option for the barbarian build above, sadly you don't have a lot of points to invest in Charisma...
The assist option seems a bit lackluster as it uses the attack option. But for spellcasters it's actually pretty nice...

I think that's a farfetched interpretation personally, but the rules are new.The quick draw feat allows a strike on my interact action to draw a weapon (bomb).

I wanted to show that the Quick Draw has no attack trait and uses the interact action, which surpasses the multiple attack penalty and can therefore be abused by thrown weapon users, especially for thrown weapons that you can stock up on like bombs, shuriken, or daggers.

Except that's ignoring the Dependent Abilities section spanning from page 296 to 297.
It says to Strike, so it has all the effects of a Strike, including multiple attack penalties.
Here's a thing I'm working on-
Dwarf Paladin of Torag
Background: Blacksmith
Str 18 Wis 16 Con 14 Dex 12 Int 10 Cha 8
Class Feats
1) Hospice Knight (you can't lay on hands yet so feel free to take anything else)
2) Cleric Dedication
4) Domain (you now key your spell point pool off of the higher of WisMod and ChaMod, so you can lay on hands now) - I like earth for the rock-throwing power.
For ancestry, skill, and general feats I'd probably lean Hardy, Magical Crafting, and Toughness or something.
Lot of directions you can take it from here, either as a Wis-based martial paladin or pick up some spellcasting.
My concern is how survivable it is for 4 levels without being able to lay on hands, but this is probably a more functional "Dwarf Paladin" thereafter than we got in PF1. It would be nice if I could take the dedication at level 1 so I could snag divine grace at level 2 though.

I missed that...well, that's fine. Still allows for three bomb attacks with penalties.
Thanks for finding that guys!

I really like this one, and it's also something that 1E can't do well. I might lean towards also getting Warded Touch so that there's no difficulty using a heavy shield. Alternatively, become a paladin of Irori and enjoy your 1d6 unarmed strike to go with said heavy shield.

Not sure why this is a better "Dwarf Paladin" than Paladin PF1. Is it because at the end of the build, you'll have better spell list than PF1?
As for me, wanted Alchemist.
Went Monk.
Human - Background Scout.
Str 16 Dex 14 Con 14 Int 10 Wis 14 Cha 10
Class Feats
1 - Tiger/Crane Style and Ki Strike.
Not sure about the system yet. The / for the style feats is that I'm unsure of which one to get. I'd probably take Crane if there wasn't another strong frontliner(Paladin, Barbarian, Fighter) and Tiger if there's enough "Tanks". Ki Strike is picked up due to Human Ancestry.
Side note, find it kinda annoying to comb through spells to get to Powers.
As for General Feat dunno. Feather Step or Fleet maybe to just dart in and out. Maybe Toughness if I needed to be stronger frontline.
Dwarf Paladin of Irori (Scholar background):
Str 18, Dex 12, Con 14, Int 10, Wis 16, Cha 8
AF: Hardy. PF: Hospice Knight (as per what PossibleCabbage said, planning to MC to Cleric so it can key off Wis. Extra bonus: Medicine skill for survival til then.)
Irori's weapon is the Fist, so his unarmed strikes are 1d6, but still non-lethal. Nice in a bar fight, not much good otherwise. Instead, he'll be using a War Flail. Go big or go home, right?
Skills: Trained in Acrobatics, Athletics, Lore (Academia), Medicine, Religion, Society.
Lvl 3: Righteous Ally (Blade Ally), Expert in Athletics, Toughness
Lvl 4: Domain (Clerics Feat): Might, Steady Balance
Lvl 5: + Str Con, Dex, Wis; Mountain Roots, Expert in Religion, Weapon Expertise: Flails
Lvl 6: Student of the Canon, Basic Dogma (Expanded Domain: Knowledge),
Lvl 7: Armored Fortitude (I really don't like the ham-fisted forcing of Paladin and Fighter into Heavy Armor), Master in Athletics, Fleet
Lvl 8: Advanced Dogma (Advanced Domain: Might), Additional Lore: Warfare, both Lores immediately level to Expert
Lvl 9: Boulder Roll, Holy Smite (is a joke, thanks to Cha 8. Do they start healing?) Master in Religion
Lvl 10: + Str, Con, Wis, Int; Divine Will
Lvl 11: Aura of Justice, Trained in Arcana, Alertness
Lvl 12: Radiant Blade Spirit, Quick Climb
Lvl 13: Stonecunning, Armor Mastery, Trained in Occultism
Lvl 14: Lasting Reprisal, Quick Swim
Lvl 15: + Str, Con, Wis, Int; Weapon Mastery, Legendary at Athletics, Feather Step
Lvl 16: Was considering taking the Cleric feat Align Armament, but depending on what they clarify the duration to be it could be really good or completely worthless. So instead: Instrument of Zeal, Legendary Climber
Lvl 17: Legendary Armor, Legendary Religion, Giant Bane
Lvl 18: Angelic Form (Grumpy Bearded Angel!), Legendary Swimmer (even though he can fly now...)
Lvl 19: Hero's Defiance, Expert Arcana, Lightning Reflexes
Lvl 20: Pally capstones are meh. The Shield one is better than the Sword one, and the sword one sucks for this character because Keen (still) doesn't work on Bludgeoning weapons. Can we maybe rename Keen to something less specific, and stop discriminating against bludgeoning weapons for no darn reason? Celestial Mount is ok, but I don't qualify on account of being a dwarf that hates riding things. Oh well. There's no worthwhile Cleric options on the list either, so...Radiant Blade Master. At least Greater Disrupting could be handy occasionally. + Str, Con, Int, Cha (Finally no -1 on Cha checks! Now that's a capstone! lol), Skill Training: Nature.
Final Stats: Dwarf (Dwarf, Humanoid, Angel, Celestial)
Str 22(24), Dex 14, Con 20, Int 16, Wis 20(22), Cha 10
Headband of Inspired Wisdom, Belt of Giant Strength, Greater Frost Rune, +3 Javelin, Rune of Returning
War Flail: +33 5d10+7 B Sweep, Trip (+35), Disarm (+35), Greater Frost, Speed, Variable power from Blade Ally
Javelin: +23 4d6+7 P Thrown 30, Returning (Which effectively allows 3 attacks, since it automatically returns to hand at the end of the Strike action used to throw it, removing the need to "load." Pretty nice improvement for that ability.
AC: 43 (Proficiency +23, Magic Armor +5, Splint Mail +5)
TAC: 40 (Proficiency +23, Magic Armor +5, Splint Mail +2)
Greater Fortification
Shield Cantrip, +1 AC, Hardness 20
Reflex (E) +23, Fortitude (M, Successes count as crits) +27, Will (M, Successes count as crits) +28, Perception (E) +27, Poison Resistance 10, +2 vs Shove and Trip
Lay on Hands (1) 1 Somatic Action for 19d6 Healing. And +1 AC to target ally for 1 round. Same damage/AC penalty for Undead.
Athletic Exploit (1) Now useless, but still handy at lower levels. Take no armor check or move penalty for armor til end of turn for 1 Somatic Casting Action.
Lorekeepers Fortune (1) Free Action Verbal Casting. When you use an action to Seek or Recall Knowledge: Roll twice and take the better result.
Enduring Might (2) Somatic Casting Reaction. When an Attack or Effect would deal you damage: Gain Resistance to all of that attack's damage equal to you level plus your Str modifier (27).
Hero's Defiance (2) Verbal Casting Free Action. An attack other than Disintegrate/Death effect would bring you to 0 HP: Before applying the attack's damage, heal 19d4. You can't use this ability again for 1 minute. (Considering that's the exact healing a Lay on Hands grants at that level, I wonder if Hospice Knight is meant to apply to that?)
Battle Medic (1 action) DC 20 check to heal 1d10+6 1/day/target
Boulder Roll (2 Actions) Shove enemy around, or do 27 damage if he attempts to resist.
Retributive Strike (Reaction) Attack an enemy that just hit your ally at -2. If you hit, target is enfeebled and takes persistent good damage equal to you Cha mod...in this case 0. Thanks to Lasting Reprisal, the enfeebled condition is stronger and lasts longer. Can choose to take a -5 instead, in order to grant retributive strike to allies within 10' that threaten the same enemy. Allies' Retributive Strikes don't apply enfeebled. Thanks to Instrument of Zeal, on a crit add +1 die of damage, and enemy is slowed 1 on its next turn.
Trip (1 action) As long as target is 2 sizes or less bigger than him, he can attempt an athletics check (+35) vs the targets Reflex DC. On a success the target is prone, on a crit the target also takes 1d6 bludgeoning, on a crit fail, fall prone or drop his weapon if using the War Flail.
Disarm: (1 action) As long as target is 2 sizes or less bigger than him, he can attempt an athletics check (+35) vs the targets Reflex DC. On a success the target's grasp is weakened (+2 to disarm until its turn). On a crit the item falls on the ground in its space. On a crit fail, you become flat-footed til your next turn, or drop your weapon.
Out of combat, he's gruff and not terribly personable, but he's also a font of knowledge on a wide variety of subjects, though of course his favorites to wax philosophical about are Religion and Philosophy.
