Old Thread: >>47330546
>>47343288
It feels like their nerfs aren't even targeted at balance at all; just FUN. They're nerfing how FUN things are and literally nothing else. I cannot even imagine how a team of game writers can come out of a meeting with an agenda like that but they managed it somehow.
God damn it. I wanted to start a new thread.
Oh well. First forVigilante Magical Child with Companion to the Lonely!
>>47343419
There is no agenda here.
>>47343430
>>47343436
And with this, I continue to suck DSP's proverbial cock because FUUUUUUUUCK Paizo.
>>47343430
>Ilya's face
That is the face of suffering.
Would anyone be willing to share some borders for tokens in roll20? I'm about to start a campaign and need to whip up a few.
>>47343372
I'm having a hard time figuring out what's going on in the background of that pic.
I see a wizard casting (what must be hold animal, despite the fact that wizards can't get that spell)
A gunslinger in a cape with an automatic weapon, I guess?
Is that a cleric in the top left?
And something going on about a mildly apologetic fire person on the left.
Also two skeletons watching a guy bash his head on the lower back of a bear.
What is going on?
>>47343430
Write her up yourself.
I would generate one, but I'm not going to use Ultimate Intrigue in my barley farming game.
I would also generate a Vigilante (Stalker) / Wizard / Bladecaster with Riven Hourglass and Tempest Gale for time stopping, knife throwing shenanigans, but it would be too high level to ever use.
>>47343372
>>47343419
I think conductive and shirt nerf are direct at Kineticist, more than any other class.
How does Implement Mastery work on a Vigilante (Psychometrist)?
>>47343549
I assume the man is in fact not bashing his face into the bear's ass but turning into one. I believe the wizard is pointing dramatically with his staff while he casually casts Black Tentacles, while the cleric is calling down the orbital laser.
>>47343549
Look like the Wizard is summoning a bear?
>>47343430
Reminder that even this is less degenerate than constant companion to the lonely magical child posting.
>>47343708
It doesn't mean we'll tolerate both though.I'm kidding. I'd rather have loliposting than furbaitposting
>>47343549
Wizard froze a bear, cleric destroyed undead, druid turned into a bear. I think the bottom half of the page is martials getting their shit kicked in, one's on fire, one had armor proficiency taken away
>>47343728Same. Thinking of running a Varisian Magical Child with Companion to the Lonely in a Curse of the Crimson Throne game.
>>47343288
Unless you mean making a dick or vagoo out of your sleeve, you lost me. [/spoiler]I'm not that smart, I'm sorry.[/spoiler]
>>47343789
Thanks, friend.Not sure about the gunslinger, though. He seems to be having too much fun to be a gunslinger

(cont)
>>47343814I believe you
>>47343844
That's because it's a marksman. DSP isn't crazy.
>>47343814
You can no longer turn your simple tunic into the ultimate fluffy clothes, because now that it's just a visual illusion it'll still just feel like you're wearing a tunic, to both you and anyone touching it.
>>47343844
That might be a wand.
>>47343854
Class-specific changes
• Rogues, ninjas and monks have full BAB
• Combat stamina feat from unchained given for free to all fighters

• All classes without caster levels have a minimum of 4+INT skill points.
• Paladins and Rangers have caster level equal to their class level, not their class level -3
• Alchemists have a caster level equal to their class level
So, thoughts?
Is there anything that should be changed from here?
>>47343854
>• All Paizo classes allowed
>• All 3pp content is allowed, subject to DM permission
Cool. May I please play one of these?

>>47343803
And so it was that anon declared pedophilia to be less degenerate than xenophilia.
>>47343866
Can't they let us have nice things?My campaign ended today, and I was using that to flavour my character shifting rapidly from his arctic mountain home to temperate forests. CAN'T ERRATA THE PAST
>>47343854
>>47343874
Just group and sort the list items better. Trust me, a little of that goes a LONG way towards making big lists of houserules digestible and not-daunting to players. Because it is daunting to them, they can't help it.
>>47343885
So just 3.5 cleric?
>>47343885
For the second time, nope
>>47343910
I'm also overturning the changes to the ultimate equipment stuff. And yes, I would definitely split up the list into categories, such as item, character creation, etc
>>47343863n-no bully
>>47343866
That's fucking stupid.
>>47343907
You could just keep doing what you were doing and say fuck paizo, like any reasonable person does.
>one of the characters dies and their soul is sent to hell
>the other characters are heading to hell to try and win his soul back in court
Please give me advice on how to run this.
I was thinking of giving them a devil lawyer who will be part of their team, pic very much related.
This could be a really awesome session despite no combat, but what are some other rolls that could be made to keep the more combat-focused players happy?
>>47343430
But anon, Kuro is a Soulknife
>>47343936
Your HP rule looks fine, although I prefer 'everyone gets +10 HP at first level, and takes average round-down every level afterwards'
It's consistent, it frontloads HP to make Rusty Dagger Shanktown less of a nightmare, and it ends up coming out to about what everyone would get on average anyway (since you're just taking the 19 .5s they'd get and frontloading them)
>>47343480
>>47343984
Pretty much this.
Paizo laid the groundwork and the rules, but they shouldn't declare what is and isn't allowed in games, because they're absolute morons that way with a biased agenda.
>>47344002
If I were to run a game, it wouldn't be anywhere below level 3 at the least, probably level 5,and it would be gestalt. However I do like your suggestion and should I end up running that I will institute it.
>>47343889But anon-kun, we've always been this way~
>>47343907
I'm sorry anon. Your adventures unhappened.
>>47343990
Have them defend the face from attacking demons (nothing more than they can handle without the face). Perhaps a multi-part trial where the face has to argue, the casters need to fend off disruptive magic, and the martials need to beat down disruptive imps.
Wait, Blemmyes aren't a thing in Pathfinder? Fucking really?
>>47344031
Preferring something over xenophilia? On /tg/?
Madness! Heresy even!
Why aren't you running a Mahou Shoujo campaign with a party of magical girls, /pfg/?
>>47343430
What's Companion to the Lonely? A feat, trait?
>>47344135
You and all your shitposting friends can go look find that question in any of the places it was answered when you asked it in the last dozen threads.
>>47344125
Because I'mplaying in an Evil campaign where we're collectively taking Tar-Baphon's place in history!
>>47344135
A vigilante talent. If you spend an hour engaged in pleasurable physical contact with someone, you get a pool equal to the higher CHA mod of the two, which you can use to reroll Will saves or CHA skill checks.
>>47344028
I think gestalt is overrated desu.
>>47344135
Vigilante talent. Fuck someone for an hour and get cha mod in will save and cha skill rerolls.
>>47344125
Granted, it's World of Darkness, but our princess the hopeful campaign consisted of: a 30 year old man, a 16 female ghoul, a 17 year old female high schooler, a 24 year old male librarian and a 22 year old alcoholic.
Far better way to play a magical girl campaign.
>>47344166
Oh. Seems a little underpowered...
>>47344125
How would you roll a Card-Captor Sakura?
>>47344125
Because it's a Pathfinder game in the Forgotten Realms.
I just can't picture a magical girl as a land owning pirate hunter.
>>47344187
Its pretty great for Magical Child Vigilantes because they use CHA as their main casting stat and have social skills as class skills
>>47344125
Because the problem with magical girl campaigns is the disparity between power levels indicated in that picture. One of those lolis is capable of creating a time paradox, another is capable of destroying large landmasses and winning over friends in one satellite cannon, I don't know who the one on the left is, but the one in the middle is just a harrow medium.
>>47344125
We've got a cute binder girl, a half dragon tomboy type, and a cute valkyrie.
Also some boys but whatever.
>>47343708
>made the mistake of showing this to someone in my group

I hate you, titsune anon. I really do.
>>47344233
>but the one in the middle is just a harrow medium.
>just a harrow medium
Sakura is by-canon the strongest mahou shoujo because she has no power ceiling, and her Clow Cards don't have any limits to their application, including creating a new universe if she wishes.
>>47343728

She's actually the most minmaxed Occultist of the bunch.
>>47344193
Harrow Medium? Maybe some kind of specialized scroll caster?
>>47344206
If anyone ever wants to roll a PreCure, just tell them to roll a PoW class and wear a frilly dress.
>>47344352
>>47344310
Is she? I haven't seen the show in over 15 years.
>>47344271Guess you'll have to go balls deep in someone else to dissuade them.
>>47344193
>>47344233
>>47344310
>>47344385
Occultist. Her clow cards are her implements.
>>47344389
I'm literally playing a ZweiSent in a frilly dress right now.
Well, not RIGHT now, but on Monday.
>>47344401
Its from the last CCS movie.
Against a clow card whose power is creating blackholes and ending existences, Sakura fixed the world by making a new one instead.
So is Battle Templar any good as far as PrC go?
>>47344462
So was Madoka a throwback to that then?
>>47344484
Nah, Godoka just made a wish with a Lawful Evil contract devil, so it really wasn't by her hand that the world was saved.
>>47344193
Guys!
GUYS!
Sakura is a sphere caster. Just fluff her spheres as clow cards.
>>47344389
Would they be Steelfist Commando Warlords, or Aurora Soul Mystics?
>>47344554
Yes
>>47344480
>http://www.d20pfsrd.com/path-of-war/prestige-classes/battle-templar
Yes. You can take two levels in an initiating class, then and advance your domain and other divine abilities with the PrC.
Is Inner Sea Intrigue in the Trove yet?
>>47344526
>Madoka "saving" Nanoha.
>Not the picture of Nanoha standing over a bloodied Madoka and a frightened Kyuubey with death in her eyes
You dun goofed.
>>47344125
>Why aren't you running a Mahou Shoujo campaign with a party of magical girls, /pfg/?
Because we're running a political intrigue campaign with a party of battle maids instead.
>me 3rd from left
>>47343708
Less diarrhetic shitposting is still shitposting.
>>47344608
Nanoha is not even the strongest Mahou Shoujo.
She's the most destructive, but this is like comparing a PoW initiator with a caster.
The Caster is better because they aren't stuck with a damage dealing role 24/7.
>>47344614
Me with the heterochromia
>>47344125
Because I'm already playing a magical girl in my party.
Knight-chandler best mystic archetype.
>>47344614

>>47344271

Redundant.
>>47344651
>>47344608
I don't see a frightened Kyuubey, are there multiple pics like that?
>>47344765
The first thing that came to mind when I read your post was "Bene Gesserit."
>>47344125
Because there's no rules for playing children in most RPGs, usually its "lol you're SOL" (see: Pathfinder)
>>47343436
WotC : Can't really fix it, but lets make the best of it and ignore core as much as possible.
Paizo : Can't really fix it, lets double down and break everything new just as much as core.
>>47344857
Nah the lesbian-ness of magical girls is overrated, like the most dykey looking one from the show (Sayaka) fell because of a boy
its supposed to be open to interpretation
>>47344828
you sick bastard.
>>47344928
And yet we can count how many straight mahou shoujos there are, but lose count on the number of gay mahou shoujos.
Also, Sayaka a shit
>>47344928
>the most dykey looking one from the show (Sayaka) fell because of a boy
Duh. Mahou shoujos are like Paladins. If you're not into homusexual relationships, you fall.
>>47345087
The amount of magical girls that have a sexual relationship with anyone is vanishingly small, the point is to make it so you can read into it... if you like.
The vast majority of them are just ambiguously gay duos at most.
I blame Paizo for this.
Now every party will have a token magical girl mascot or token battle maid partysitter.
>>47344724
>bury yourself between those muscular thighs
>the character from the picture has8 str
>"muscular thighs"
Anon pls. I'd much rathertease her for being chubby, then roll to pin.
So my GM might allow gestalt builds...
Should I go fighter/warder with variant Oracle, oracle/fighter, or warder/oracle?
I want a fair amount of feats and the Oracle mystery/curse. Spellcasting is a plus. The goal is to basically be a sword and board tank / speed bump.
>>47345182
8 str could very well be muscular by female standards.
If you could cast any one and only one cantrip at will in real life, which would you choose?
Yes, you can also pick from orisons and knacks.
Can anyone post Expanded Metakinesis feat from Magic Tactic Toolbox?
Also is Disruptive a good choice for that?
>>47345154
Kind of why I'm mad about magical child.
Not because it's a magical girl, but it's a token one, an uncanny valley magical girl that doesn't do the concept justice.
They will be having badwrongfun and it will eat at meespecially if it turns out to not be fun for them and just ends up as badwrong
>>47343865
>DSP isn't crazy.
There requires a bit of crazy for them to pull good content out of their ass like the PsyArm and Fool's Errand.
The operative word you're looking for is 'DSP isn't stupid'
>>47345201
>le -4 str face
>>47345209
Prestidigitation obviously.
>>47345192
If you want to be a tanky frontliner, Warder is Fighter++.
Here's what you do.
Ask if April Augmented is allowed, and then ask if you can have a 1-level dip into the Daring Hero prestige class. This will turn you into a charisma-based Warder.
Gestalt that with Oracle.
>>47345215
Here ya go!
>>47345241
This
>>47345239
-4 str means you're in favor of penalizing female characters.
I'm solely talking about flavor text, no need for hurt feelings.
>>47343372
I want to fuck Paizo-chan.
>>47345251
Thanks anon!
>>47345201
>>47345256
8 str is pretty average for kitsune as a whole, but that's in no way muscular. "muscular for a kitsune" is probably like, 12-14.
>>47345215
Disruptive is definitely one of the best choices for the feat.
Shut down spellcasters.
The only other good choices are piercing and maybe merciful, though I've heard some people say that Furious works better than Empower in some circumstances?
>>47345209
Mending. Its permanent and very handy in real life (fixing broken expensive objects and repairing mechanical, electronic devices)
Mage Hand sucks because 5-pound limit.
Prestidigitation sucks because 1 hour duration.
>>47343372
Huh... That image makes me wanna fuck paizo... But in a different way...
>>47344608
>QB
>frightened
It doesn't comprehend fear.
Curious, why exactly do people want to make a character who locks down enemies via standing in the way and so forth when an Entangle spell shuts down casters, is very sticky, and lets you hold the line just fine? What's that one druid variant that is basically just a better ranger? Go for that.
You can always stand behind your entangle effect so you have the feel of tanking.
If you're blinded can you use counters?
>>47345289
How do you guys even know her strength score?
What even is that character? Is she some sort of /pfg/ mascot I didn't know about?
>>47345289
If 8 str is average for a male kitsune, its perfectly reasonable to interpret 8 str as muscular for a female kitsune.
>>47345292
Furious seems to be better for energy blast, since flat damage is more useful for those low damage blast.
What happen when you use Furious and Empower together though?
For example, if your normal blast is 5d6+17.
Would it become (5d6+17+10)*1.5 or ((5d6+17)*1.5) + 10
>>47345225
What actually is Fool's Errand? I've seen people talking about it but I haven't looked into their new stuff lately.
>>47345358
One Punch Man, the discipline.
>>47345342The anon who first showed us that pic included a character sheet, and asked us for some advice.
>>47345342
The player posted their character sheet a few threads ago, asking for build advice.they also confirmed that she is a total joke character, because their campaign got derailed by a That Guy.
>>47345367
That doesn't sound balanced.
>>47345390
>>47345370Link to the character sheet?
>>47345326
Because we all want to be in the Battle of the Hornburg.

>>47345182
Well people arent even all over. She could have 12 str legs but less elsewhere, bringing her average down. Gotta be able to carry certain things.
>>47345439
Oh. So can you tell me more about it, then? We've got a lot of "hit them once for lots of damage" discs.
What makes it crazy?

He continuously trained for three years before the series began.
If you have a really nice DM, you can come close in a game with fast xp growth and no downtime.
>>47343866
>200 GP to actually have the ultimate fluffy princess dress on demand when you're not wearing full plate and the blood of your enemies is somehow badwrongfun and must be removed from the game
Do they just get drunk and throw darts at random pages to decide what they're going to nerf? In what POSSIBLE world does the Sleeves actually changing what your clothes are while you're using their magic break shit?
>>47345481
>>47345512
Yup. You can make surprising amounts of progression in just a 24 hour period if its split into many sessions, even.
>>47345536
Disregard their opinions, their erratas, their faqs. They can't balance their game for shit
>>47345400http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=542690...Enjoy?
>>47345390
I personally doubt that. I recognise the artist, and that pic isnt posted on any of their accounts. So they still got a tittymonster kitsune commissioned for it, even if it is a joke.
>>47344024
So as much as I want to jump in with the DSP stuff, looking now and again at the pathfinder/DSP threads I'm kind of turned off at the idea of needing a character with 40 different pretige classes to be viable.
Is this generally the case or is this just theory crafting on how to get the maximum of maximum benefit of damage or whatever outcome you're looking for?
>>47345295
What's wrong with 1 hour duration when you can just keep casting it over and over?
>>47345599
>5'3"
>"slim build"
>185lb
What the hell?
>>47345699
Mending can make you a ton of money.
>>47345295
You can get a gorillion uses in that 1 hour duration.
So, would a Vigilante (Psychometrist) with Implement Mastery and the various Item Mastery feats be playable or just kind of shit.
>>47345692
When you're theorycrafting, you will want to devote considering looking into several pages of content to make the ultimate badass.
In actual gameplay, you're more satisfied following 50% of what you researched into theorycrafting because you know very damn well breaking the game isn't fun for anyone else but you.
>>47345733
>>47345699
Its still only going to last an hour.
Its still gonna be nothing more than a cheap parlor trick.
>>47345599
Why doesn't she have any Night Tea or Bachelor's Snuff?
Does she *want* to get knocked up?
I'm joining a mythic game set in Alkenstar and the Mana Wastes. Guns are under "commonplace" rules and thus usable by anybody with martial weapon proficiency without burning a feat, and advanced firearms (and ammo) are available for 25% standard cost.
I'm trying to figure out how to make a reasonably effective gun-user. How do? DSP content isn't available for this game, before anybody asks.
>>47345792

[Nervous Sweating]
>>47345762
I understand that. I mean, I have my own ideas on how I think it should go and personally kind of dislike the idea of prestige classes sans the archetypes from 5th (although it's not perfect or exactly to my liking but whatever).
Basically I was curious if this was the tone of most games that if you arn't rocking gastalt builds and pushing for big numbers and hyper specializations then it's not worth bothering with unless that's just your thing.
>>47345599
Oh goddammit.
I went to all that trouble writing up a spell-list that wasn't complete dogshit, and he didn't even have courtesy to use it.
What a fucking cumbucket.
>>47343996
>mfw based my current character off of her
My only regret is not reading PsyArm fully and using that archetype.
I know there's a homebrew general but I've had a hard time getting a reply there.
Are there any resources any of you DM's have found useful for using roll20/fantasygrounds?
My DM is planning on starting his own campaign after having played through a couple of (Second Darkness + RotRL) AP's with us over the last couple of years, but is pretty nervous about encounters and making maps (isn't good enough with photoshop to make his own).
>>47345819
>Does she *want* to get knocked up?
She's described as a fertility goddess anon, with prime birthing hips and a healthy feel to her.
Of course she wants some buns in the oven, hopefully from a good member of the party that can provide her with strong children.
>>47345842
Yeah, but I'd rather have mending in real life and work as a repairman for priceless antiques or valuable historic artifacts and earn insane amounts of money for my gift.

Hey, I'm just the guy who trawled the archive for the link, your guess is as good as mine.
>>47345869
Well, that's the link that was given before. Not sure if mythweaver auto-updates to the same address or not.

Can humans even impregnate dog furries?
>>47345929
That's how we got Abe no Seimei, paisan.
>>47345929
>Can humans even impregnate dog furries?
Maybe she can find out.
>>47345929
It's a kitsune, anon.
In either case, yes.
>>47345536
Well, I can see how it might offend their sensibilities; consider that, as pretentious hipster SJWs, the men an women at Paizo place a significant value on the false utility of "authenticity". Priding themselves on not buying the mass produced clothes from a major chain. With something that can change a garment on command, you destroy the foundational concept of authenticity - anything that is, can be replicated.
By making it an illusion rather than a transmutation, they seize authenticity once more - your clothes become a facade of trying to fit in to their authentic social circle like some filthy prep. What was before an item that could have brought cultural harmony without the sacrifice of self-expression becomes another tool of division - between the "real" and the "fake". Without these social divisions, they can't schlick themselves to sleep over how much they're fighting against them.
And so, the transmutive properties of the sleeve of many garments MUST be removed, for it goes against their very philosophy of protected classes and division.

There is no sexual dimorphism in Pathfinder for gender.
There is for age, just not gender.
A strength 8 character can lift 160lbs off the ground and stagger around with it.
A strength 10 character can lift 200lbs off the ground and stagger around with it.
Pathfinder is not a good system to extend to the general population.
>>47345295
That's actually a really solid choice.
>>47346005
That's stupid, they're stupid, and they're not taking away the fluffy-dress-in-a-can.
>>47345947
Googled it.
Legendary onmyōji. All the first page pics are essentially anime.
God dammit Japan. You can't even treat your own history with respect.
>>47346030
I think he's being deliberately pretentious for the sake of humor
That said, this whole fucking errata is full on Nick Fury tier "The council has made a stupid-ass decision".
>>47346076
It's really amazing. Even the ACG Errata had one or two decent decisions in it but this is just an entire PDF of bad ideas.
>>47345536
I see their logic here - people were using it to turn their clothes into swarm suits, or gas masks, or fire-resistant fabric, or things like that.
The huge nerfbat they hit it with was an overreaction, though.
>>47346111
Why is that a problem, though? Hell, I'd applaud them for that.
>>47345892
>10 minute casting time
>1lb/caster level
Hell yeah, maybe you'll make some money fixing tiny, tiny antiques.
But you know what's cooler than a million dollars, anon? Worldwide fame in a magic touring business for doing ACTUAL FUCKING MAGIC.In a way people would actually watch, rather than seeing someone fix a crack for ten minutes.
>>47346020
>There is no sexual dimorphism in Pathfinder for gender.
Hm? Aha, you made me look, but you're wrong. Male kitsune have five inches over female kitsune.
What you meant to say is that there are no rules to cover... why a given strength rating is assigned a character. How you fluff it is up to you.
>>47346111
>other non-magical set of clothing
The former is armor, the second isn't clothing. There is no such thing as fire-resistant fabric in 1pp Paizo. Asbestos cloth etc is 3pp.
This could very easily be changed in a way that doesn't destroy the feel of the item for a simple, minor-convenience. Just add, can't be made of special materials. The rest is just a lack of understanding
>>47346072
They probably get that shit crammed down there throats otherwise there wouldn't be like 300 dynasty warrior games and fifty different interpretations of the same historical figures.
I'm sort of curious what it would be like if we gave the same treatment to american history
>George Washington with an eagle sword and spear with the Union flag fighting a Dragoon riding atop an actual fucking dragon
>Brawling Armor is now a +3 bonus instead of +1
>Amulet of Mighty Fists is made only slightly cheaper to compensate
>Quick Runner's Shirt no longer gives the TWFer a chance to close the gap and get in their licks once a day
>Jiangsha is now completely useless if you have a ring or use automatic progression
>Sleeves no longer let you roleplay having easy access to cool outfits on demand
>Feather Step Slippers now cost a standard action to activate and have limited use
>Bracers of Falcon's aim now cost a standard action to activate and have limited use
I really wish they'd stop trying to do errata. They're not any good at it.
>>47346159
Well there is physical sexual dimorphism all the time. It just doesn't translate to stats, yeah.Male kitsune only have five inches over females? No wonder the females go elsewhere
>>47345885
I know my GM likes throwing modules into our campaign. It's a homebrew setting, but that doesn't prevent incorporation of pre-made things. Just gotta rename/reflavor etc.
I myself don't know any of them, but I'm sure there are some tools out there that can be used to generate maps. Your GM could, like with modules, take maps from preexisting content and use them.
Stuff doesn't have to be too fancy or original, just has to be interesting.
>>47346204Both genders get another 2d8 inches though, should be enough for anyone
>>47346203
>Brawling
>+3
WHO.
WHO COMMITTED THIS ATROCITY.
>>47346203
>>Sleeves no longer let you roleplay having easy access to cool outfits on demand
I never bothered with the Sleeves because in campaigns I've never had a time where we absolutely needed a specific change of clothes.
Now they're just ruining fun.
>>47345692
A lot of DSP classes are pretty solid is you stick with them, but there's often a benefit to multiclassing somewhere.
>>47346255
Remember, there's definitely no agenda at play when one or two caster toys get weaker in an errata document while every other page is devoted to tearing down martial toys and salting the earth behind them.
>>47346255
When in doubt Bulmahn.
>>47346255
We will find out in the morning when more people post in Paizo's Product Discussion thread.
>>47346329
Even AoMF, which is one of the items that got buffed, benefits casters more than martials, because the only people in 1pp Pathfinder that use it are:
>Druids when wildshaping
>Someone who polymorphed into an creature with natural attacks
>Beastmorph Alchemists
>Animal Companions
>Eidolons
>Monks
>Brawlers
The vast majority of which are casters or caster related. 3pp and creature templates can expand that selection, but it's still pretty fucking narrow.
>>47346255
There can be no peace between magicians and the magicless
SUCH LUST FOR REVENGE
WHOOOOOO?
>>47346203
Don't forget the nerf to gloves of reconnaissance.
>No longer 15ft, only 5ft
>No longer 10 non consecutive rounds per day, now only once per day for up to 10 rounds
>>47346528
Fuck that.
>>47345295
>>47345720
>>47345892
Don't forget that Mending has weight limit.
Even Feather Step Slippers are not safe
Holy fuck can someone explain what's going on, I just came online and apparently Paizo went batshit insane with errata.
Did we know this was coming? Why did they do it? Has the errata made the game just plain unplayable?
>>47346137
>>47345892
Don't forget this part. "All of the pieces of an object must be present for this spell to function". What is the chance that you will be able to find artifact with all the pieces? Some gooks stealing small gem from the necklace and your spell is useless.
>>47346634
Every so often Paizo releases an errata for one of their books.
This errata is usually finding all the things shit GMs complain about in PFS as being too good or more popular than the devs would like, taking them behind the shed, and shooting them, burying the corpses 18 feet deep, and salting the earth where it's buried.
>>47344125
Kill yourself
>>47346634
>What's going on?
They nerfed a number of items-specifically, ones which really, really didn't need nerfs.
>Did we know this was coming?
Don't think so. Maybe?
>Why did they do it?
At this point, I really don't know anymore.
>Has the errata made the game just plain unplayable?
No. But it's annoying all the same.
> My party think that my Aether Kineticist is too strong
Maybe comparing to Bard 5 / Fighter 3 and Magus 4 / Cleric 1 / Rogue 3,
but seriously... is this how most people build their character..?
>>47346702
...It really, really isn't.
>>47346702
>Magus 4 / Cleric 1 / Rogue 3
>>47346702
Never take /pfg/ as the "standard" for Pathfinder play, we're basically the hyper-optimization "throw 'em to the wolves" group.
Aether Kineticist is fine in most campaigns.
>>47346702
Some players are using the multiclass mentality from 3.0/3.5.
Just because there's no experience penalty doesn't mean they should do it in PF.
>>47346522
Wrong board Skully.
>>47346702
>>47346727
Is he just trying things out?
>>47346729
>we're basically the hyper-optimization "throw 'em to the wolves" group.
Only like, 30%. The rest don't actually read the rules and just want to waifu post and get people to tell them how to build anime characters. A third of those are Saitama.
>>47346727
"He was an arrogant magic prodigy, so he fall in with the bad crowd but he found a solemn and redemption at the church"
Something like that...
>>47346737
Any of those would be just as fucking retarded in 3.5 as they are in pf.
Sounds like they're just dumb
>>47346779
It must have been a very bad crowd because it looks like they drove him completely MAD.
>>47346702
What the fuck is the second guys BAB? +5?
>>47346834
Yup. +3 from Magus +2 from Rogue.
>There are still anons itt who take Paizo's drivel seriously.
When will you anons realize DM overrules whatever garbage exists in the books and Paizo are absolute morons.
Yes, you can use Vital Strike with siege weapons
Yes, you can take Eldritch Heritage: Sylvan to get an animal companion
Yes, you can CdG with a firearm
Yes, you can worship Asmodeus as a LG Paladin
Yes, your magic sleeves makes your rags smell and feel like the finest silk
Yes, I will allow your Construct Rider Alchemist to have a Mammoth as a companion
Yes, the rogue can get a mutagen discovery as a rogue talent after you took Mutagen since you asked nicely
Yes, lets not run any of Paizo's APs because its stupid as fuck
Yes, I will allow PoW and Psionics
Yes, I will allow your Magical Child to use the Magus spell list instead
Yes, your AntiPaladin can be any other alignment as long as you obey a set doctrine we will discuss properly
>>47345325
He probably did after Homu had their way with him.
>>47346834
>>47346863
With fractional BAB it should be +6. It has 8 levels, and all of them are 3/4 BAB classes.
>>47346775
Another third is Fate/Stay Night.
I can't tell if the Dark Souls posters are 1/3 or a very loud three people.
>>47346884
>Yes, you can use Vital Strike with siege weapons
Was this actually ever disallowed?
>>47344676
I feel so loved.
>>47345861
For what it's worth, considering that I am /very definitely/ a biased opinion, most of DSP's stuff is multiclassing/PRC ENABLED, but not REQUIRED, if that makes sense. Some of it is that we feel PrCs ought to be worth taking (which doesn't mean we haven't fucked up...) rather than automatically shit, unlike certain parties that will remain nameless. Some of it, like Path of War's multiclassing, is a throwback/homage to the parent system. But a lot of it is just that many of our fans enjoy theorycraft and multiclassing/refluffing so they talk about it a lot.
>>47346906
Some grognards think Vital Strike only works with 'precise weapons'
>>47346884
You. I like you. I wish I could play in your games.
>>47346904
>I can't tell if the Dark Souls posters are 1/3 or a very loud three people.
Lets' find out:
PRAISE THE SUN FELLOW SUNBROS!
\[T]/
>>47346884
Good for you.
Think of all those anons who have to fight uphill battles against inexperienced-but-otherwise-good-guy GMs who don't know enough about Paizo and think it's still a decent authority.
The ones who'll say 'but anon, surely no company would do something that stupid without good reason' out of just goodwill, optimism, and expectation of competence from an established company, and slowly build up an unconscious opinion of you as a minmaxing powergamer for continually suggesting that things get made stronger.
>>47346884
>Yes, I will allow your Construct Rider Alchemist to have a Mammoth as a companion
My DM made me take a fucking level of Druid just to have the druid's companion list as a Construct Rider.
Fuck that guy.
>>47346947
>slowly build up an unconscious opinion of you as a minmaxing powergamer for continually suggesting that things get made stronger.
/\This. I got stared down when I suggested making power attack and combat expertise built in character options with my new group. "But anon that's giving everyone 2 feats for free" fffffffffffff
>>47346940
I think the sun is alright.
>>47346904
>>47346940
I get more of a monster hunter vibe than Dark Souls from PoW, personally.
Though I have made some pretty Souls-y characters before.
>>47346940
PFS players need to start playing more SoD casters and small mounted archers.
>>47346940
GRRRRAVELORD NITOOOOOOOIm on mobile so I don't have my nito picturea.
>>47347037
PFS players need to start playing less PFS
>>47346917 If you are available for comment or ruling Gareth I was wondering if equivocate from shattered mirror could be used to gain/share buffs with allies based on the wording or if I am reading it wrong? "You ensnare yourself and a foe in a reflective relationship. You can initiate this counter in response to [an] opponent in close range... being targeted by a... ability. For one round, any such effect targeting that opponent also targets you (and vice versa), even if it normally could not affect that many targets or one of you would be out of range."
>>47347064
It says it only works when an opponent does it. If you're using it on an ally, they're not your opponent.
Depends on if your DM lets you swap between designations.
>>47344161
I like you better than him already.
Not that the bar is set very high.
>>47347032
>I get more of a monster hunter vibe than Dark Souls from PoW, personally.
Playing PoW is like playing any of the Sengoku Basara games
Be an epic badass wiping out waves of mooks with a single blow whilst silently praying to god that your DM doesn't throw Lu Bu at your general direction.
>only one listed author on this fuckfest of UE errata
>It's fucking Bulmahn
>>47346940
It's truly a patrician's game
>>47347090
[X] Pursue Lu Bu
>>47347094
There must be a way to do this with Riven Hourglass and Veiled Moon boosts and counters.
>>47346940
420 praise it
>>47347093
His hatred truely has been visible from the beginning.
>>47347064
So, here's the deal: there is no sane way to handle 'ally' and 'opponent' aside from letting individual characters designate them. As such, RAW, yes, you can do precisely this. It wasn't designed with that as the intent, but...
Well, but Shattered Mirror is an odd duck, in that it kinda scales with the op level of the campaign. If your DM/group is comfortable using the letter of the rules in that fashion, then go nuts. If they're not, don't. It's one of those spots where there's no good way to close the hole, and where even if there was we might not, because why fuck with a group that's comfy doing it like that?
Anybody want to help me with building a sphere casting shifter? It's starting at 1 and I want you guys to help me optimize the shit out of it for a friend who loves the master of many forms and battle shaper from 3.5.
>>47346940
>>47346287
Okay, I've been out of the Pathfinder game for a while. What is DSP?
>>47347058
But then Paizo won't have ANYONE to listen to.
PFS is the SOURCE of the nerfs and errata. If PFS play were to show them what was really wrong, THEN they'd listen!
