Uncommon Ancestries-Where to Start?


Pathfinder Second Edition General Discussion


So I've been struggling to decide which of the uncommon ancestries to start with in PFS and figured I'd ask around, see what others are looking at, PFS or not. So, assuming that they all are added as buyable, were looking at:

Hobgoblin
Lizardfolk
Leshy
Ratfolk
Catfolk
Orcs
Tengu

Kobolds are always playable, so not counting them. Nor did I count Lineages, since.indont know if they're being added. But of those, what are the general opinions?

(Sorry if thinks too soon, but since the PDF came in it's all I can think about.

Ideas I'd had so far:
Lizardfolk Rogue
Orc Druid (Mauler?)
Catfolk Champion or Swashbuckler
Tengu/Ratfolk Witch


Catfolk Champion with a good domain spell to Black Cat luck enemies might be decent.

And Cat Luck yourself to bad reflex saves is never a bad idea either.


IMHO, Catfolk might be the most busted ancestry to date. They seem way too good

Just FYI, you don’t have to be the caster to use Black Cat Curse. They just have to be an enemy within 30 ft that you can see that succeeds a save.

And all the Catfolk luck abilities are the best kind - you get to see the results before you use them, and you don’t have to accept the reroll.
