Okay, /pfg/, what is the dumbest character that you ever played that you had an absolute blast playing?
>>
>>47933414
Swashbuckler//Phytokineticist//VoP Serpent-Fire Adept Monk

The character was retarded, the build was retarded, and he was bottom-tier in a game where the rest of the part was min-maxing.

But goddamn if Lord Fisto wasn't fun as fuck to play and shockingly useful and resilient.

Is 185~ acceptable Nova damage for a level 6 character?
I can deliver it once per day as a pounce attack.
The bare minimum it would do would be 174.

The attack rolls are all quite high, ranging from +18 to +23, so all attacks should land unless catastrophic dice-related failure occurs.

No, that's pretty unacceptable.

Probably referring to the "spheres of magic" content that overhauls the entire Pathfinder magic system into something considerably less convoluted than it's current implementation.

Unfortunately it doesn't really do much to keep magic from completely trivializing non-magic characters. In some cases it actually makes it easier to achieve god-tier status.
>>
>>47934142
How high should I be aiming at this level?
Keep in mind that's 5 attacks being done by a falchion that crits on 14-20 and has a crit modifier of x3. A crit would deal 94 damage minimum.
There's also a 1d3 Bite at the end.

In the unlikely event that all of 'em crit the minimum damage would be something akin to 470.

Okay, I had to miss last thread and most of BJ's visit, but, real talk time.

I've been inviting other devs here for two reasons. One is that /pfg/ has previously expressed a desire to see more developers drop by. N. Jolly and BJ are not the first I've invited; they /are/ the first two to accept. As a general rule, I invite someone when I've seen a positive or semi-positive reception to their work; mainly, this is because "Hey, this corner of the internet thinks your work is shit and that you're shit for writing it," is a really hard pitch to write.

The other reason is also simple: 3pp has to stick together. Our margins are so tight. We face difficulties in doing the thing we love doing, and the only folks that really understand are, well, other 3pp devs. So we help each other out. We show respect. We try not to step on each other's toes. We don't shit-talk each other's work. The folks I brought here, I brought here because I felt they - as DSP has - could benefit from your honesty, expertise, and sickeningly swift return time on providing data. I wanted to help.

I know that me and my team are guests here. We are, by our nature, apart. Despite the latest spats and difficulties, it seems like we're still welcome. If we're not - if you'd rather we go - we can go. This is your place, and I'd like to respect it. It'd be a shame to miss out on the data and the fun times, but that's not really my call to make.

You folks helped make one of my childhood dreams a reality. I don't think I ever get to stop owing you for that one. I don't express enough how much of a help you've been in our testing process, to say nothing of the folks we've been able to hire for their skills. I appreciate everything this community's done for us, for me. I know my team does too.

Thanks for your time.

Yep. The base book aven has a theurge-type prestige class between vancian and spheres, if you were so inclined.
>>
>>47934233

Right now we're testing it out with spheres replacing out and out arcane/divine spellcasting but alchemy still working as normal, and psychic magic.

The latter mostly because the Occultist is a favorite at my table and too difficult to convert to the spheres system right now. We ultimately decided it was actually kinda nice that Psychic Magic isn't just Arcane Magic in a different dress.

Well, I intend to keep that as a trump card, and only uncork it when we're in absolutely dire straits.

+4 morale from Rage
+4 alchemical from Mutagen
+4 profane from Brutal Strikes (Brutal Slayer archetype for Stalker)
+8 inherent from Blood Reservoir of Physical Prowess
=+20
I said it decays in "big chunks," not that the whole thing only lasts one turn.
It drops to +12 next turn, then to +8 two turns after that, then eventually Rage runs out, leaving me at +4, and finally an hour later the Mutagen runs it's course and we're back to normal.
It seems like it all checks out, though I may have missed a clause of some sort somewhere. I'm no expert.

Oh you poor naive fool.
You'd need Crossbow Mastery in either case. The minotaur-double (never the regular double, ever. but the minotaur... didn't I just explain this in IRC?... the minotaur allows proper reloading while they've nerfed the regular double specifically to fuck you over completely there) gets a majority of bonus damage to it. It doesn't double on crits, it doesn't double vital strike... But oh look, this +5 crossbow is adding 5 damage per bolt... And it's shocking so they're both shocking... deadly aim...

Now bolt-ace this shit up for dex to damage.

A class that could switch off between either being a heavy armor defender or beatstick, with a holy or evil theme, both with some kind of power up or transformation alt-form like a Devil Trigger in DMC, with lots of tactical options to pick from turn by turn that let you do melee with a little bit of ranged and even unarmed or grappling, throwing, etc. mixed in, and the occasional flashy special attack.

Spheres of Power is a 3pp alternate casting system that throws out Vancian casting for a set of "spheres," which basically act as schools of magic only instead of learning spells you acquire new powers within the school and fuel them with mana/"spell points." Instead of the evocation school, for example, you can learn the destruction sphere, which does 1d6 bludgeoning damage for every two caster levels within close range as a touch attack or ranged touch for free, but you can spend a spell point to make it do 1d6/CL instead, and learn talents that let you make it energy damage, or form it into a cone or a blast radius like fireball, and so on. Very "build your own spell" system.

Feats exist in it that let any class get limited access to some spheres. My personal favorite is that if you take Basic/Advanced Magical Training as a fighter in the Alteration sphere, where all the polymorph effects are, you can make a fighter who can morph various qualities like darvision and such onto himself a couple times a day, and then spend a talent to include Pounce in the qualities he can morph up.

Kind of. The Spheres in SoP are way more specific than they are in Mage. It's something like 20 SoP Spheres compared to the 9 or 10 in Mage. It's built more to force casters to specialize in what types of magic they can do, as opposed to giving them access to every school from 1st level.

What are some good class choices for natural attack builds?

I want to make a Skinwalker Crocodilio into something that tears through things with teeth of fury.

>>47935724
Daevics are the absolute best. Get like six-eight natural attacks, buff them all with force damage, and bullrush people for automatic pounce-on-bullrush.

It's a little much, actually. But there are lots of more restrained ways to use Akashic Magic for natural attack builds. These guys are the best for your natural bite attack, by the way.

Chimera Soul in the Lords of the Wild playtest is...okay. Most of its strikes and boosts are pretty lame actually but it has very good stances that do some really cool things. Unfortunately, the stance that is just "pick a bunch of natural attacks, you have them" is broken like the Daevic because it doesn't sanity-cap you. Should be like 3-4 attacks max with set damage.

I think the Fenrir-blooded Bloodragers from the same playtest work with native bite attacks. Just pretend it's crocodile-blooded and not werewolf-blooded.

Other stuff...alchemists and investigators using self-polymorph alchemy are kinda broken. Not brawlers, because fuck you if you like natural attacks...I dunno. Druids, maybe. Self-buff with bite stuff, can you do that out of wild shape?

Need some questions answered/discussed;

1.) A Tower Shield made out of metal. Feasible? Or should I say no, as it'd be way too heavy to use?

2.) The Greenwood material. The wording on it is weird. "A dryad then speaks to and shapes the wood, coaxing the living green of the leaves into the grain of the wood itself. " Does this mean that only Dryads can shape the actual items out of the wood itself? Or they just create the material, and them it can be worked into items by non druids/dryads?

We're going to be in an Ustalav monster hunting campaign. Am I retarded if I play an Alchemist? It looks like Alchemist bombs will involve a lot of poison, fort saves and conditions that undead will be immune to.

Beastmorph Vivisectionist is a pretty solid natural attack route. Lose out on the cool shit you can do with bombs, but if you need to savage people's tender bits with natural weapons, it works.

No, don't! the grenadier archetype is terrible! It actually makes bombs worse!

Take Alchemical Sapper instead.
>>
>>47936240
Well I'm not looking for "stats" per say, I'm more referring to the fact that a normal wooden Tower Shield weighs 45lbs, so a plate-steel one would, assuming it's like 1" thick, would weigh like 250lbs (this is a Tower Shield for a Dwarf, so I'm assuming 3' high by 2' wide for ease of math).

Now, this is napkin math, I don't know how metal shields are made, nor do I know the logistics of making a normally wood shield out of metal. My player wants to craft himself a shield to go with his shiny handmade plate armor, but I'm assuming he'll want to make it out of the Adamantine he special ordered. Basically, I'm wondering if I should allow it, or tell him it's just not feasible.
>>
>>47936422
>the grenadier archetype is terrible! It actually makes bombs worse!
uwot
>>
>>47936481
Make it a wooden shield reinforced and plated with metal. Adamantine already doubles the weight of things IIRC.
>>
>>47936422
How does it make bombs worse? I took a look, and the only thing I could find in there that could possibly "make bombs worse" is losing Brew Potion, leading to losing out on having extra extracts. Everything else just gives you more uses for your bombs, all of which are optional and/or only improvements.

Alchemist - gifted blade soulknife gestalt tiefling with thebhighest intelligence in the party and a charisma of 6.

She was loud, brash, obnoxious, and insulting, and default party leader because she could think of a goal and herd everyone else towards it by virtue of literally being the smartest person around.

They had to cast Eagle's Grace on her any time they were talking to an NPC so she wouldn't piss them off, and everyone thought it was hilarious, because I normally play quiet, easygoing characters.

Gun rules are so fucking weird in Pathfinder that they decided to wrap them around only one class ever using them to any potential at all

>>
>>47937274
Conceptually, the gunslinger is a guy that's good with a gun. The fighter is a guy that's good with weapons. Or armor, depending on archetype. There is no reason for gunslinger to be a separate concept from fighter. It should have been an archetype, if not part of the base class.

Likewise, there's no convincing reason for a "grey" cleric to not just be a particular kind of actual cleric.
>>
>>47937274
Nothing.

The problem is that their gimmik - guns - do terrible damage except on nearly impossible t get crits, and their equipment costs are prohibitive. Finally, 90% of the gunslinger archetypes and the class itself suffer from fighter issue - they do exactly one thing well, but unfortunately, in their case, they can't really do that well without critfishing with weapons that crit only on a 20.

So I had a player wanting to play a Princess. On top of the Eastern Fighting Fan, she also wanted to wield a "battle umbrella"

Who am I to deny that? So I made two versions of battle umbrellas.

Battle Umbrella
Price: 500gp
1d6 piercing 18-20/x2
This fancy umbrella belies it lethal purpose. When the umbrella is closed, it functions much like a mundane rapier. When the umbrella is opened (a swift action), it provides a +2 shield bonus to AC albeit at -2 penalty to attack. The piercing rapier and the shielding canopy can be granted weapon and shield enhancements separately.

Pole-Arm-Brella
Price: 800gp
10ft. reach 1d8 piercing x3
Much larger than the standard battle umbrella, this ornate pike fastened with a solid steel canopy functions as a mundane spear. When the canopy is opened as a move action, it provides a +2 bonus to AC and a +1 bonus to reflex as if under the effects of partial cover. The piercing polearm and the shielding canopy can be granted weapon and shield enhancements separately.

I also designed an older trick polearm for our acrobatic rogue

Battle Ladder
Price 80gp
10ft. reach 1d8 piercing x3
A hollowed iron pole with spokes and grooves along its shaft to allow a foothold for climbing over fortifications and ending with a conical pointed end. Several Battle Ladders can be interconnected together to a maximum height of 50 ft. (5 battle ladders)

And last but not least, an Alchemist Gun!

Alchemist Gun
Price 50gp
30ft. varied
As a move action, this mechanically daunting gun can be loaded with any liquid alchemic weapons such as alchemist fire, liquid ice and acid and fire it as a 30ft. ranged touch attack. A critical hit from this weapon does not deal bonus damage.
On a roll of 1-2, the alchemist gun misfires, spraying its contents at the wielder instead.
Alchemists are automatically proficient with this weapon and suffer no chance of misfiring - They may also take the rapid reload feat to reduce the reload time to a free action.
>>
>>47937300
Well their is a rule set that says if firearms are common, they become martial weapons. Then any class with martial proficiency can use them.
Even simple.

Commonplace Guns: While still expensive and tricky to wield, early firearms are readily available. Instead of requiring the Exotic Weapon Proficiency feat, all firearms are martial weapons. Early firearms and their ammunition cost 25% of the amounts listed in this book, but advanced firearms and their ammunition are still rare and cost the full price to purchase or craft.

Guns Everywhere: Guns are commonplace. Early firearms are seen as antiques, and advanced firearms are widespread. Firearms are simple weapons, and early firearms, advanced guns, and their ammunition are bought or crafted for 10% of the cost listed in this chapter. The Gunslinger loses the gunsmith class feature and instead gains the gun training class feature at 1st level.
>>
>>47937376
But what happens if you make a battle umbrella out of adamantine or deep crystal
>>
>>47937376

...Your game sounds pretty fun.
>>
>>47937303

Perhaps using the word cleric was of poor choice.

I guess what I mean by grey cleric is a mid-close range caster combat focusing on necromancy for offensive spells and de-buff spells, heck maybe even an undead "pet".

>>47937300

Isn't that more of a problem with the gun rules then the gunslinger class?
>>
>>47937398
Depends. You must pay the full price to replace either of the two parts of the battle umbrella.
>>
>>47937402
Undead lord cleric can do that. It has necromancy spells on its list and an undead pet baked in. Granted, it's considered suboptimal, but it's functional.
>>
>>47937376
>A hollowed iron pole with spokes and grooves along its shaft to allow a foothold for climbing over fortifications and ending with a conical pointed end. Several Battle Ladders can be interconnected together to a maximum height of 50 ft. (5 battle ladders)

NEAT! I can imagine fantasy armies actually wielding these for sieges.
