>proud of
Not exactly, but I kind of like it. Demon world is outside of human world, but they come from a world outside of the demon world. Demons don't like them, and sometimes they spread to the human world. They're a weird race of floating gray blobs that can morph to appear as just about anything they come across. Given some time around creatures they quickly pick up on how to act like them and eventually become one as their main form.

>>51949142
Actually, on that note, my group recently voted to actually run a Steel Ball Run campaign across Golarion. I need some ideas for crazy parties for my players to be racing against. So far, I've got:
>A Varisian caravan eschewing air travel and going by land
>A Chellish noble "gentleman explorer" who fully intends to cheat at every possibility
>A group of Pathfinders from the Lantern Lodge in Goka, acting as representatives of the Pathfinders outside the Inner Sea

House rule in my game. You must:
>Pay 1GPxspell levelxcaster level per charge in misc. crafting materials
>Cast the appropriately powered spell on the wand
>More powerful versions of the same spell are lowered to the original spell. So a 5th level CLW being cast on a 1st level CLW wand would only give it one 1st level CLW charge.

It's an old shame of mine, but I still love the furry-bait animal/elemental Shifters that my girl and I came up with. Organized into kingdoms based on elemental affinity (fire/ice/magic/natural/light/dark/earth/sky/moon/ocean) with different animals in each (red foxes in fire, bears in natural, stoats in dark, etc) all ruled by a hidden council that was organizing wars between kingdoms so they could harvest the souls to keep their demiplane kingdom running.

We had it built up quite a bit, kingdoms mapped out and rivalry lines drawn etc. The Shifters were the only race in the world, with a strong hatred of humans because the last time any humans managed to breach their demiplane world they brought guns and thoroughly fucked the balance of power.
Common class shifters could barely managed animal/furry forms, royals could have dozens of alternate shapes and go full elemental with no trouble, all of them had the good ol demon stick of 'teleport, self +50lbs only' going on so their infrastructure and towns were whack.
Dammit now you've got me wanting to go start something up again...

>>51950848
Alright. Well on Discord, I'm Mlems.

>>51950717
See >>51950785

Let's see how ashamed I can get here...
They all went through yearly stages depending on how powerful they were, the stronger the shifter the stronger the stage. Affection, depression, and rage. A common shifter would just lapse into a stage for a month each year instead of being normal, and alternately just stay in bed and need checking on to be sure they were eating, go out and fuck anything they could catch, or go out and try to kill anything they could catch. The royalty would have 4-5 month binges of a single stage every few years which of course played hell with their politics.

The kingdoms were arranged across two planets (which was it's own clusterfuck since only the really strong ones were able to teleport across the distance and their tech level was medieval.) with Fire, Ice, Nature, and Sea on one and the rest on the other. Kingdom alliances were two main power blocks of (Fire Magic Light) against (Nature Ice Dark Ocean) with Earth and Sky pretty much reducded to third world refugee countries and Moon trying to play neutral party from being so tiny.

>>51950825
I just might.. Since it had the whole shadow council thing going to keep the conflict strong so they could harvest, most of the story was either the grind, or the occasional upset that an 'outsider', aka, any character that wasn't a Shifter, would bring with their arrival and the rush to kill/recruit them in any way possible. The queen of the Nature kingdom got lucky and bagged a plane-hopping sorcerer which helped solidify her power and get some extra magic mojo into the bloodline, which of course pissed all the other kingdoms when they started using their kids as bargaining chips to spread the magic to their allies.

>>51952019

>>51951801
Yokai have long lifespans, why wouldn't a bakeneko?

>>51951810
So you mean to tell me that all possible aasimars/tiefling come from humans, and that it's not possible to have a blessed/cursed cat?

>>51952025
Once they gain access to 3rd or 4th level spells, depending on what class.

>>51952025
Depends on what you consider broken.
Could be when they unlock 3rd-level spells and get fireball, fly, haste. Could be when they can use dimension door and start teleporting at least at a short range. Could be when they start to be able to summon multiple monsters that can soak up at least one hit from any given foe.

The truth is that most mages won't end up broken unless they specifically build to be so. Most of the horror stories come from asshole players who abuse loopholes or little-known rules.

So...make up. What was makeup made of? Is it exclusive to the rich, or can the lower classes wear make up?

>>51952025
In most games they don't unless the players tries to exploit a number of trouble spells. The fact out of combat utility exists does not ruin the game for everyone.

Do you think it would be considered in bad taste if your Tattoo Guardian either resembled a god/divinity or incorporated their holy symbol into it?

Right like a smith has an angry looking dwarf tattooed on his back and worships the Dwarvern god of creation.
Or like a priestess has a great heron spread out on her arm with a moon symbol on it somewhere and she worships some primordial moon king.

>>51952228

>>51952365
It's not like other spellcasters are any better(unless they have eschew materials).

Are there any classes in this game that revolve around technology? I'm interested in going for some sort of scientist type character but playing alchemists have begun to feel tiresome.

>>51952432
Yes.

>>51952432
Closest you can get is technomancer prestige class or a techslinger gunslinger, but that is only useful if you are playing in Numeria or a setting with hightech items being common.

>>51952432
Technomancer? Just fluff a wizard as using tech because the tech rules are crap?

>>51952432
I personally like the Dimensional Occultist archetype for Witch.

It doesn't directly interact with technology, but it's heavily focused on using mathematics and science to augment casting, which is pretty cool.

Plus, it's a Witch, so you're not as hideously broken as most fullcasters.

How worthwhile is command undead via channel energy for a necromancer arcane caster?

Is it worth the feats spent for cleric variant multiclassing just to get it?

>>51952365
You realize that alchemists can bathe, correct? Besides a lot of people did work around bad smelling chemicals. Do you ban tannery workers from cities as well because they're covered in urine?

>>51952726

Some monarchs indeed did it. I believe people who made dyes were banned from cities in some kingdoms.

>Good
>Shocking grasp or bust

Look, as dippable as Spheres Magus is (Which is a MAHOOSIVE PROBLEM), it still has way more variety in things it can do.

Magus wasn't the best built class in the first place.

Doing a gestalt game, PoW. My heart says 'Swashbuckling Bard', but my friends say 'Warlord Bard'. What should I do?

>>51953328
Be the Bard initiating archetype and drop Swashbuckler and Warlord all together.

>>51952432
Technically yes, but the entire tech book was written in a "for NPCs/enemies only, any PC attempting to use this will soon find out just how much we hate him" manner that makes it obvious the largest technological upgrade in pathfinder was given to the "ivory tower".

Your best bet is to combine the vancians usual complaint about psionics. with the discipline-weapon-shapes ability of the warsoul. Like, Aegis/Warsoul for example.

The biggest drawbacks/restrictions on tech are the gateway feats, the high cost (roughly double what an equivalent magic item would cost), the utterly absurd "charges" system (that's also "not ammo" to make sure a gunslinger can't make'em cheap) and the fact that one literally requires a minimum of *TWO COLOSSAL BUILDING SIZED ARTIFACTS* in order to craft even the simplest batteries or laser pistols.

A magic item crafter can make a tech item into a simple, cheap, minimum HD/CR robot. That's your best bet otherwise, but requires the crafting feats.

The iron titan class is not bad in 3pp, but there was also some other cyborg class (forget which) that turned out to be really really bad, with basically X/Day getting split across *EVERYTHING* it does in minutes or rounds. We're talking "oh at level X you have +4 strength, except that now burns energy 4/rd" sort of deals. It was pathetic. Also arcforge was abandoned in mid-alpha.

>>51953320
>spellstrike for damage is the only thing a magus does good
You're retarded.

>>51952788
Alchemist are one of the few classes with easy access to negating their aroma entirely, and they're highly uncommon.

Basically banning highly useful and uncommon trained magic users who can negate their aroma based on them smelling bad, especially when they can bathe, is stupid. Banning rare skilled laborers that kingdoms need every king should have multiple alchemist on his payroll is just asking for bitter people who have "terrorism" as a class feature.

That makes sense, but nothing was ever equalized to account for the merger and it has absolutely no compatibility with any of the cool archetypes that make the magus actually interesting. Archetypes which would lose EVEN MORE because many of them lose out on the bonus spell points the spheres archetype gets.

>>51953320
Why is it a problem again?

>>51953092
Then you just have to make it good enough that people will want to use it!

>>51953429

>>51953439
Same could be said for the rest of the sphere archetypes.

They were ARCHETYPED, not REBUILT, which is how you'd need to go about it.

But then, if you were rebuilding them, what would the point be? Why would you spend all that effort rebuilding wizards when you already have Incanters? Why bother rebuilding Magi when you have Mageknights?

Hell, with Mystic Assault, a Mageknight basically is a Magus.

>>51953455
Because classes only existing for a 1-2 level dip is terrible game design.

>>51953520

Magus is a marriage of martial and caster. Mageknight is a Fighter with a pool of points for special abilities, not an actual spellcaster.

>>51953677
Okay. Mystic Assault is Spell Combat without the extra attack.

And Spellstrike, you have Energy Blade and Improved Energy Blade for. Hell, with Improved you can smack a dude with magic and still use any other spell.

But best of all: Arcane mark.

You see, Arcane Mark can be used as a target for scrying spell, such as Clairaudience, clairvoyance, scrying, and suchlike. And if you hit them with your sword, the last thing they will be looking for is an invisible Arcane Mark on their wounded body part.

Idiots who say "only damage" and "shocking grasp only" are just that: idiots.

>>51953763
......but WHY? That would be like taking Spellcastign and turning it into a feat. Or Studied Target. Or Sneak Attack.

>>51953834
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/accomplished-sneak-attacker

>>51953834
It's not ENTIRELY Spell Combat. Spell Combat itself is still better.

Mystic Assault takes a spell point to use until you get Improved Mystic Assault, and it doesn't give you an extra attack. Instead it eats the first attack of your full attack (Or your first primary hand and your first offhand if you're TWFing)

>>51953853
>Prerequisite(s): Sneak attack class feature.
That's not how making sneak attack a feat works.

That just lets assassins and Slayers up their sneak damage to rogue levels.

>>51953748
It's an abusive relationship because people keep barging in and stomping on the class's toes and saying it can't and shouldn't work because other stuff "already does it better now!", you're pointing at one part of the class at a time and saying "this is done elsewhere, therefore throw the whole thing out".

>>51953763
>>51953869
It also doesn't apply a penalty on your attack rolls, but that's neither here nor there. All Mystic Assault's existence tells me is that there's plenty of room for the Magus in Spheres. If spheres can have an entire archetype dedicated to the fucking Glory talent of the Light Sphere, I'm pretty sure Magus being "Mystic Assault +1: The Class" should be good.

Alright /pfg/, I could use some help.

I've been kicking around ideas for a Vital Strike build for awhile (yes, terrible feats, I know) and I might actually get a chance to make it soon, so I could use some advice on what works well with Vital Strike and the other stuff I want to use.

Current plan is to go Titan Fighter archetype for them large weapons, because Monster Hunter. Have Power Attack and Furious Focus, because when you're going vital strike you only need to worry about one attack anyway. And from there I have no idea. I've been out of PF long enough that I have no idea what new good stuff there is. The GM is only allowing Paizo stuff and doesn't want to have to learn any new subsystems because he wants this game to be quick and easy for everyone, including him.

Any advice?

>>51954052

>>51954052
.... While vital-strike builds are possible, if you want melee and first-party you're beyond fucked.

There's a feat chain; Overwatch Style, that can allow you to ready up to four separate ranged attacks, each with its own triggering events, as readied actions. With 1PP-only this is more or less your only hope. It is, of course, ranged: A Minotaur Double Crossbow combined with crossbow mastery will allow you to make all four attacks.

If you were hoping to be viable with nothing more than, what, a Huge sword? On Vital Strike? That's basically hopeless without mythic, and even then you'd be behind the curve of anyone else using mythic.

>>51954052
Best Vital Strike build. Tiefling (Pitborn) Abyssal Bloodline Bloodrager. Ask your GM if you can pick variant ability 16 off the SLA trade-in table. This lets you use large weapons without penalty, and when you rage you can gain another size category. Turns you from medium holding a large weapon to large holding a huge weapon. A huge greatsword has 4d6 damage, so vital striking with it gives it 8d6.

>>51954052
Maybe less practical than Titan Fighter or the Tiefling other anon mentioned, but worth considering is Vigilante to access Vital Punishment. You can build to get two Vital Strikes and an extra standard attack at full BAB each round.

It's mostly only viable with 3pp support, kind of like kineticists and many many other things. The options you've got here aren't even spectacular, they're just "this is probably the least-worst you can hope for"

Thanks for the advice, though I'm more looking for feat suggestions than anything. Both the GM and the rest of the players are too lazy to really minmax anything, and nobody is really concerned with typical viability. My current character (the Vital Strike build is my backup) is an Unchained Monk who took Racial Heritage-Halfling and Well prepared as his level 1 feats. Also, should probably mention we're playing on the slow exp curve so it'll probably be a long time before we even hit lvl 5, much less anything beyond that.

Not really. Heck, the Dead Hand miniboss from the same dungeon was a scarier boss than Bongo, and by then if you weren't already using the eye constantly, that was your problem.

Seems like it'd only be aquatic or serpentine for that. Then it comes down to what stats are wanted. Hopefully I can get it fluffed as floating instead of having actual wings because Eidolons give no fucks about the material world's physics. If they want to float they can.

Gerudo societal structure is by necessity matriarchal, with women working the fields or fighting the wars or trading the goods.

Men are special, they're explicitly destined for ruling, like Ganon. In retrospect, this means there is no example of this in Golarion because there are no societies where women do the majority of the work, but men enjoy (or suffer, depending on your view of the matter) the mantle of leadership by virtue of a penis.

>>51954775
Off-topic BUT

So, I asked about dropping Spellstrike and Spell Combatfrom the Phantom Blade archetype if I gestalt it with a Stalker (Brutal Slayer) earlier. I'm currently looking at the following changes.

I'd like togain an Emotional Focus, as those are the big draws of a phantom. But because I don't have a phantom proper, I'm thinking of something like the Id Rager's Atavistic Focus, wherein the character themselves' gain the powers a phantom has, counting as a phantom AND a spiritualist for any effect referencing a phantom.

Spell Combat on the Phantom Blade replaces etheric tether, shared consciousness, fused consciousness, and empowered consciousness. These are the primarily defensive features. Would it be okay tojust replace etheric tether andsimply have the Shared Consciousness, Fused Consciousness, and Empowered Consciousness features work while the Phantom Blade is harbored in the Spiritualist's mind?

Spellstrike replaces bonded senses. This is primarily a fluff-based thing. Would it be alright if, instead, of gaining spellstrike, I could gain Emotional Conduit as a bonus feat? Or Blind-Fight, to something of similar effect. Would these changes go over well? I really love the flavor of the Phantom Blade and I want to use it, but I can't justify having it, and having the first two levels of the class just not do anything for me, as I prefer martial strikes and counters and such instead of spellstrike and spell combat.

What's the worst part of GMing for your group, and why is it having to roleplay like 3 different NPC waifus and husbandos for people who have turned you down IRL?

So my character concept for dragon two games can be summed up thusly:
>one of the few dwarven families living under the Queen's rule
>family is famous as vault builders and bankers
>character is the prodigal son of the family, prodigy locksmith
>by day he makes locks and vaults as Rokar Chapman, respected artisan
>by night he is the notorious bank robber Snap Iron

The plan is for him to be a Vigilante as one half of his character build, if approved it's going to be the Night Terror vigilante. However now I am struggling on the other half of the character. How do I support being the greatest safe cracker/safe maker to ever live?

>>51954894
That's an FF Villain if I've ever seen one

>>51955057
Yeah.

They're just a subrace of human, like the Gerudo.

And speaking of Gerudo, they're apparently supposed to have round ears too?

>All Gerudo have round ears, though Nabooru and other common Gerudo were shown with pointed ears in the Nintendo 64 versions of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. This was changed with the Nintendo 3DS re-releases, matching their depiction in their artwork. Curiously, in The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess as well as his non-canon iterations in the Super Smash Bros. series and Hyrule Warriors, Ganondorf's ears are pointed. Whether this is a retcon for the race as a whole is unknown.

So yeah, Gerudo are just desert humans with the weird 'one male every 100 years' thing.

And really, why should such an iconic ability be locked into a particular class chassis? MA is at least different, and worse if you actually want to play a magus style gish, but if you want to do something ranged or using a 2-handed weapon, you now have the option.

You can spend a second feat to become a low caster (and immediately get two talents for free). Or you can choose a talent from a sphere that doesn't rely heavily on CL. For example, pick up Life (Restore Only) + Greater Restoration and once per day you can cure one creature of all ability drain, damage, and negative levels.

As far as 'feat into the subsystem' goes, Basic and Advanced Magic Training are some of the best there for 3pps. Two feats for something like kinda alright healing magic, or some TK, or something else like that? It's a pretty alright deal.

>>51955618
That's what I was saying, though. It being miles ahead of everything else falls a bit flat when it's a normal dude in the special olympics.

ABORT! ABORT! TURN LEFT TO HEADING ONE-NINER-FIVE, CONTINUE TERRAIN MASKING!

Okay, so, I'm definitely gonna roll with the Witchwolf Skinwalker for my character in Dragon Game 2. However, I have a few issues!

First, Spellstrike/Spell Combat don't mesh aT ALL with Path of War. But I don't want to get rid of it, because I love the fluff of Phantom Blade.

Second, I can't decide if I want to go with a cute little witchwolf girl, or a ravishing, handsome young skinwalker man! The characters would still have the same class, and likely function the same, but Dragon DM is looking for males!

Third, I need art! Preferably art of hunky blondes or cute redheads! I suck at finding art myself!

Also, rate this as an origin for his skinwalker heritage: Ulfens have a tradition of locking lycanthropes in special long houses during the full moon, with food and silver to keep them satisfied. His great-grandfather, an outsider, was curious, and snuck into the longhouse. There, he was trapped... with a female werewolf. For a very long night. Alone. And thus, skinwalkers.

Well the worst part is that 3/4 of them are furries and bring furry things into the game. But I put in ironic furry shit to poke fun with constantly, and feed them catboys, so I'm complicit in my cringe festival at this point. Still, there's nothing so humbling as trying for cringe on purpose and then being taken seriously, and way-outdone at it, by a professional with a sketchpad full of furry porn under her belt. I still have much to learn.

Friendly reminder that the devs have admitted Avowed is overtuned and you're a shitter.

>>51955591
Friendly reminder that 2hu ran damage numbers that were WAY too fucking high for any reasonable game.

>>51955732
That's....actually good looking, save for that goddamned equine tramp stamp thingy.

>>51955800
Only parts of it.

And, let's be honest here.

If a class was shit at damage, but ONE FEAT literally made the damage decent all on its own, at the cost of the secondary effects and combat utility of the class, you'd think there's a problem there too, right

So it's only natural they'd have to take the axe to Overcharge Modulation.

As for the rest, a fully "I'm a fucking botfly with all the right choices too" build as calculated by 2hu was barely in line with other primary damage dealers; in other words, it's in a good spot otherwise.

Avowed update dropped my dudes, full BaB got replaced with Greater Magic Weapon effect on all attacks.

>>51956259

My reaction is: REE-I can't actually be too mad, because that could technically be argued as being BETTER than just having more BaB. The reasoning for it is still fucking retarded and I'm going to go in my corner like a petulant child and sulk until the BaB version comes back in some form or another.

The fox ears are actually a side-effect of glamour, and one of the few fox qualities a Kitsune is unable to remove (alongside their shadow and, for the young, their tails.)

I liked it because Avenger is my favorite Vigilante specialization, and because Brutal Slayer/Bushi Stalker||Embodiment of the Aether Self Avowed was everything I wanted in a Str character, doubly so if I could make the Stalker side be Cha-based.

If you're using this thing to buff up non-THF weapon styles, what weapon style would you count a Magus as being after using Spell Combat? The einhander one basically happens on other people's turns, so it would basically be a free buff.

There's no rule or anything that makes a case one way or another, I'm just asking what would be balanced. Do Maguses need the help?

So hey, actually getting a tripcode now - in part so you guys that don't want to read about the Avowed can filter me out. So hi! I'm Forrest's co-writer, Katia "Taveena" Oakes. While this has been a joint effort and we've worked together on basically all decisions, I personally wrote up Celestial, Court Fey, Fiend, and Old One pacts, all current Aspirant pacts, Celestial, Dragon, Old One, and Undead aspirant pacts, all our present subpacts, a significant chunk of the clauses in both releases, Aether Beast, Aether Well, and Aether Circus, and about half of our present feats.

So, with that out of the way - we've got a new Avowed 1 playtest with all the changes we've promised. The google doc link is still valid, but for those who don't feel like finding that, I've attached it here. Self Pact has seen the biggest changes, with the bonus attacks being changed to deal flat damage and not interact with Aether Channel. The pact should now interact better with other pulse shapes, though it still strongly encourages melee striking.
In addition, it was a little bit too potent as a dip, so we've capped the bonus to AC from Charisma at 3+class level, making it scale like a lot of other attunements. In practice, this should have very little affect on single-classed Avowed, while still serving as a potential dip option for people who'd like to go armorless - though somewhat less centralizing.

>>51956414

Aether Channel, meanwhile, will no longer increase your effective base attack bonus. Sadly, it's pushed Avowed numbers far ahead of where we're comfortable. It now automatically applies a Greater Magic Weapon effect to your wielded weapons, improving your quality-of-life without quite the same damage increase. That said, we know how dear this was to a lot of people - plans for a Class Feature Substitution that gets full base attack bonus while focusing on weaponlike shapes is well underway for all your mage-warrior needs. There's also been a slight change in that meta-SLA feats will now ONLY affect the spell-like ability's bonus damage on Channel and Rounds, rather than allowing you to empower or maximize your greatsword's damage dice as well.

Finally, Overcharge Modulation was a HUGE problem, putting the numbers in a range that made it difficult for DMs to handle. We've heavily altered it, making it bonus dice that scale with class level. The numbers are not finalized, but this should hopefully be significantly less overwhelming than the previous version. Let us know how all this new version feels!

Thank you for all your support and feedback!

>Inquisitor spell list
You might get a few clauses, and they're nice, but the inquisitor has way more utility total. A bit more damage, less utility.

>>51956426
My first thought on the overcharge is that it'll still be forced/required (which is a shame if it still shuts down secondary effects), so I'll run some numbers on it after work.

I'm sure 2hu will also go for an over-optimized ceiling of it as well, so I'm sure you can get two data-points...

.... let's make it three; I'll see what I can do about putting up a 'floor' as well. How the class handles without it has been a worry for a bit.

>>51956426
>>51956414
Keep up the good work, and give me a sidebar about how the Court Fey Pacts Fetch works. Does it know things etc, the usual simulacrum issues.

Is betrothed going to get any love on the horizon, and what is going to happen with the dungeon lord archetype?

>>51956479
5 total least clauses alone are that much more utility than having 6 cantrips, 4 level 3 and 3 level 2 spells chosen from a decently large list, and having clerical domain powers to choose from?

As much as I bitch, I look forward to more. I still think the problem with Aether Channel was not in fact the BaB like you guys always claim, but what's done is done and you're all too eager to at least entertain additional sets of features so I can accept it. So long as I can one day make a Self Avowed who's just a loose translation of pic-related, I'll be good.
