Mark mentioned thst the ability should cost two actions on Pathfinder Friday. Should we make this adjustment if we rn this encounter as part of the playtest, or should we run it as written in the Playtestiary (1 action)?


What did he do when he ran it?

They didn't explore the lake on the stream.

Until they errata it in a document, it's 1 action.


To add a bit more confusion to the proceedings, the spell Monstrosity Form has a sea serpent form that also has this ability. Here's how its worded:

Lol, "move action".
