If you’ve read the sticky posts in the Pathfinder Second Edition Rules Discussion forum or the Pathfinder First Edition Rules Discussion forum, you’re well aware of the ropes, and this all may sound pretty familiar to you! Feel free to skip!
Please use this forum to ask your questions about the rules of Starfinder First Edition! You can either post a question to ask the community, or you can even post a thread about an answer you came across that you find particularly delightful or helpful. Our community is full of a wealth of knowledgeable GMs, players, and general readers or all levels of experience of the game. Please keep that in mind when interacting! What’s obvious to you may not be obvious to someone else, so please treat everyone and every question with consideration and grace. As usual, please abide by our Community Guidelines, and if you see anyone breaking those guidelines, please flag the comment or thread for moderation by our team!
Debating rules is allowed and encouraged! A lot of interesting and new ideas come from intelligent and civil debates. That being said, we do want to emphasize that we want to keep these debates polite. Even if you disagree with someone, it doesn’t mean you need to insult them! Please always refer to our Community Guidelines in regards to keeping all conversations respectful.
Within those debates, there are bound to be times when members of our community disagree with a rule or point out an error with it. Please keep in mind that sometimes, a rule is just written that way, and the thing you may take issue with may very well have been intentional. But, for the times it is a genuine error, let me introduce you to our FAQ!
It’s possible that questions may arise during the first read of our games. In addition to our forum, the FAQ system exists to provide an answer to some of the questions we received more often than others, as is the case with most FAQ sections you may already be used to! Please keep in mind that these questions were aggregated based on their frequency, rather than their level of difficulty. If something seems like an easy question with an easy answer to you, it may not seem that way to someone else, so please refrain from disparaging both community members asking as well as us for pointing attention to it. Remember, we just want to help, and if lots of people ask the same question, we want to help them regardless.
With the release of Starfinder Second Edition, we are no longer writing new content for Starfinder First Edition, and we will also no longer be posting new Errata. If you have a first printing of our Starfinder Core Rulebook, or if you purchased one second hand, you may run into printing errors that we have since fixed. We are no longer accepting new submissions for FAQ or errata for First Edition books, and we have compiled all the past ones together here.
Keep in mind, we will not be accepting rules questions via email or social media. Please direct all rules questions to our forums for our Dev team to see or for our community to help you! If you post a rules question on our social media or if you send an email with questions, you will be directed to our forums. This is Paizo policy.
Thank you again for wanting to take part in our forum! Please remember our Community Guidelines as you post, and we hope you enjoy your time here!
Best,
