Hi I have updated my Ancestry Guide for the Mwangi Expanse

There is a good amount of new races to discover:

I think we will see a lot of these:

*Conrasu (plant people) Which can get natural armor that Druids will like. Healing plus an at will enlarge ability.

*Gnoll (hyena hybrids) which can have a circumstance bonus to trip and shove - I can see a lot of builds wanting that. but they look like they would make excellent witch doctors as well. I love the roleplaying feel of an Augury spell on some characters.

*Grippli (tree frogs) which look like the are meant to be casters but they have this poison effect they can add to all critical unarmed and most weapons too.

Only occasionally some of these:
*Goloma (still not sure what they are) which seem to be designed for paranoid rogues.

*Shisk (anorexic underground porcupine people) have some recall knowledge bonuses and a quill defense ability.

*Anadi (spider folk shapeshifters) last becasue they look good, I just don't know what build they suit.

Generally speaking I've been impressed. They have gotten the DCs right on many of the abilities. These three can be used by any class and are not just the preserve of the Charisma based casters. They would work well on any character:

True Gaze
Webslinger
Quill Spray

But there are a few clunkers still:

Breath Like Honey - which gives you the ability to cast Enthrall. Which potentially inflicits fascinated. Which does almost nothing. I really wish Paizo would fix fascinate up and make it relevant.
Tenacious Net - which has a fixed DC so it will soon become irrelevant
None Shall Know - The non detection that you get from this will always fail the counteract check from anyone of high enough level to be of any interest to you.


Thank you to Paizo for this book. This is a good expansion to the lore. You have some good new ideas in Mwangi Expanse.

Feedback about my feedback welcome from anyone.


The Taw Launcher is another Conrasu weapon, which is probably the best weapon for characters who specialize in crossbows to use at the moment.

It's very nice. A minor correction:

You wrote: "There are 5 Ancestries which will give you a Familiar."

But now that you've added Gnoll, you have six listed.

That is not linked properly on line yet. Fixed.


Where is Shackleborn and additional feats from LO ancestry guide

Shackleborn I missed. I've fixed that. I have the feats from the LO Ancestry guide. If I've missed a section then please let me know.

There are probably things I have missed in the Adventure Paths. I will go back and check.

Hmm, I thought I saw a couple feats missing for Lizardfolks, but looks good now. Only thing to note is that that new errata feat is now on Nethys so you can do a direct link.

Yeah I did find a few mistakes earlier. But I've gone through it and double checked it yesterday. AFAICT its up to date with everything.

So maybe refresh.

Thanks

It's a prime pick for a Humans Unconventional Weaponry feat. ;)
