I love both the Divs and Asura. They need a lot more support.

Yet we keep getting more and more ultra specific Demons and races like the Sahkil and Manasaputra that would be better as types of Kyton or Angels.

No 3PP? Still gonna suggest one of you guys spend the 2$ for The Ultimate BattleLord PDF and run Scout Battlelord.

If you choose not to make that worthwhile investment then I guess you can run a Slayer, Unchained Monk, Daring Champion Cavalier, or Summoner.

To run? My home setting, mostly because it's canon that questioning inconsistency causes the player to take damage as they get slapped, so I can get away with a lot of bullshit.

General fantasy setting? I've always loved the setting for the Riftwar books

Reposting from last thread, need some advice on gameplay for my vivisectionist:

>>tfw my DM won't let me buy high-level potions so no alchemical allocation/+5 barkskin shenanigans

What potions are best to use with alchemical allocation? I was thinking as high a level of barkskin as possible, heroism, and greater magic fang.

Any other ones I missed? I'll be using infusions of bull's strength and enlarge person in poisoner's gloves on my monkey tumour familiar, whilst necking a bountiful bottle (move action because of accelerated drinker) and mutating with master chymist as a standard action (assuming it's a standard action). I'll be drinking the high level potions I bought with alchemical allocation for longer-lasting buffs.

Should make me a combat monster, especially since I'm going vivisectionist. I could use invisibility instead of enlarge person, which would allow me to hit with sneak attacks on my natural attacks thanks to feral mutagen.

>>46188986

Paladins can do face duties quite well, and it looks like you guys are looking for someone to handle the full-BAB stuff.

In my opinion, Paladin is probably the best first-party full BAB class, so yeah, I'd recommend that.

So what, become the deadmans? With freaky deadman things?

I will say I like me the sounds.

>>46189000
Not sure if this is what they're talking about, but Tzimisce are an eastern european bloodline of vampires. Their powers include fleshcrafting, which means they can modify creatures to make them better, worse, battle ready or permanently disfigured. Apparently they got this from aliens, but that got retconned! Known uses for fleshcrafting are schlatza, body transformation, and citadels of flesh and being eaten by the clan sire because vicissitude is actually them making their way into every vampire to eat them from the inside out when they get hungry enough.

Ravenloft and Eberron of the D&D-branded stuff. Honorable nod to good ol' Mystara, though I'm disappointed by how much of it is just transplanted earth cultures.

Can my cavalier mount be a larger sized humanoid?

Brawlerfag here, whats class has the best synergy for a level dip to gain access to long arm and enlarge person? I'm thinking a level in transmuter then buying pearls of power later seems good but I'm open to better options that doesnt involve another person casting it on me.

>>46189282
...you can ride a humanoid, yes, but you can't have one as a class mount.

>>46189295
Alchemist? You also get a Mutagen for an additional stat boost, plus your choice of Bombs or Sneak Attack. Also Brew Potion, so you can make your own potions of those spells and have them always available.

>>46189387
The problem with the bracers is that they require a swift and only last one round for a total of three times a day.

I'm also considering just plain buying pots to drink which may end up costing the same as a couple of pearls of power throughout my career till I can afford to get a permanencied enlarge.

Are gnomes the interbreeding product of dwarves and halflings?

>>46189455
correct. You iwll have to carry potions of reduce personwhen you get enlarge permanent.

Also premanent enlarge is only 2500g I think, really a steal

>>46189539
No, faggot, get your magical realm out and read their actual backstory.

>>46189690
First party options, probably some kind of bloodrager or barbarian.

Third party, I'd be personally inclined to go with an Unquiet Grave (Lords of the Night)/Mithral Current focused Harbinger (both Path of War: Expanded). Unquiet Grave for the undead-alike qualities, Mithral Current and Harbinger because something about that picture says high mobility striker with a proclivity towards dancing on the corpses of his foes.

So who here has played through this adventure module? I find the concept and all the rules and stat ups for things like landmines, machine guns and mustard gas fascinating, but at the moment my game group has several campaigns already planned, on top of needing to work through the earlier parts of the adventure path, so I'm probably not going to use it any time soon. What did you think of it if you did, and has anyone adapted the rules for modern weapons and troop combat into a homebrew game of any kind?

Just play the game, man. You'll figure it out. Enjoy one of Paizo's better efforts.

Alchemical Trapper, Sapper, or Trapbreaker Alchemist? Galvanic Saboteur or Trapper Ranger? Some kind of trap-based Rogue, since I think there's an archetype or something that lets you add your sneak attack damage to traps?

>>46189991
To complete my thought

The class had cool abilities, but had a lot of other problems. Abilities not meshing, for some the class was OP, ect.

For individual talents, like in Spheres, he'd probably do better.

>>46188589
Kytons, I'm a fan of Hellraiser. Asuras and Rakshasas are cool too, but I'm not sure why we need two races of lawful evil outsiders from Indian mythology.

Whoops, forgot to link >>46190153 to the correct post. Also, the class that adds sneak attack to traps is the Aspis Agent (or Guild Agent) at level 3. That's also the class that can apply a dirty trick and then trigger it several days later.

I don't mind the doubling up there, since there's a significant enough difference between the extraplanar invade-to-fuck-with-deities asuras and the native infiltrate-to-fuck-mortals rakshasa.

I'm more annoyed by the oni, as they're way too close the rakshasa, but don't even have a clear identity as a group (can have any evil alignment, have variants for every race that don't actually work together, etc).

I suppose kami have the same issue with regards to good outsiders, but they get a pass because it's not like anyone ever gave a shit about the kami anyway.

>>46190363
>I will teach you, senpai.
But I have neither the time nor the players willing to learn rules either!

So overly complicated and verbose that it literally cannot fit into one post.

>Battle in Dreams
>Sleeping Goddess (Boost) [Mind-Affecting]
>Level: 9
>Prerequisites: 4 Sleeping Goddess maneuvers
>Initiation Action: Swift
>Range: 100 ft.
>Target: 1 creature
>Duration: Instantaneous (see text)
>Save: Will partial
>At the pinnacle of the Sleeping Goddess discipline, its masters do not do battle in the physical world at all. Instead, they draw their foes into their dreams and attack the very underlying concepts of their being, subverting or maiming the essence of their minds. When you use this maneuver, you create a demiplane of dreaming and transport yourself there along with one foe. The demiplane appears functionally identical to the general area the two of you are located in with strange alterations - blood might appear to rain from the sky, or a titanic tree might appear to hang in the sky. Within the dream, you and your foe have difficulty maintaining your physical forms, taking on metaphorical or symbolic shapes (you and your foe might become warring city-states, or you might turn your foe into a mountain range and yourself into a river wearing the mountain down to dust).

>Upon activating this boost, you take one full round of actions; your targeted foe then takes one full round of actions. While battle in dreams is in effect, creatures outside the dream are invulnerable to creatures within the dream’s attacks and spells; creatures within the dream cannot target such creatures with any attack or spell. During these dream rounds, you gain a +1 circumstance bonus on all attack rolls, damage rolls, ability checks, saving throws, and skill checks for every 6 initiator levels you have, as the dream contorts to always grant you an edge. Neither you nor your opponent may recover maneuvers in the dream.

>>46190278
>>46190470

>At the end of your foe’s dream turn, you each return to your original conditions and locations, and you resume your turn as normal. Resources expended in the dream remain expended in reality (such as maneuvers, spells, and magic items), but otherwise only hit point damage and ability damage either of you does to the other transfers into reality - to outside observers, wounds simply appear out of nowhere. All other actions taken in the dream, such as changing stances, applying helpful and harmful conditions (like a haste spell or stunning an opponent), healing, or changing the environment (like wall of stone) revert when the dream rounds end; your foe inherently understands these restrictions.

>Augment You can augment this maneuver in the following ways:
>For every 6 power points you spend, you gain an additional +1 circumstance bonus on attack rolls, damage rolls, ability checks, saving throws, and skill checks during your dream round.
>If you spend an additional 15 power points and expend psionic focus, any movement you and your foe make is preserved after the dream ends. In addition, your circumstance bonuses and your foe’s penalties remain until the beginning of your next turn.

I like the idea of "personal reality bubble to battle in" but this was a SHIT execution.

Hopefully they write a better way.

I mean, that depends on what you want.

If you don't want to stray too far afield, Fantasy Craft is pretty fun and OGL so it's vaguely similar to PF (although a lot of the core system assumptions are very different - iteratives don't exist and spells work on a spellpoint system, for example)

There's a whole mess of ruleslight stuff you could learn if you want something easy and fast to run.

If you wanna try something different, there's a bunch of different systems out there. I like Infinity's RPG for cyberpunk future stuff, one of the old Marvel Universe RPGs is my favorite supers system, there's always GURPS!

If you wanna go full weeb, Tenra Bansho Zero is pretty awesome.

My 10 INT Cleric become the party wondrous item crafter, because the Magus and the Alchemist are all "But.. m-muh melee feats".

>>46190868
Custom magic items can (generally be made) I believe it's the bonus squared*1000, so a +10 would cost 10,000, +20 would be 40,000 and +30 would be 90,000. You could always try and convince your dm to let you increase the price of the lower items to make them a different bonus type so they stack. As long as you're not an incantatrix that shouldn't be too broken.

I read that doujin.

>>46190680
Me too. Maybe right after I finish Jessica Jones.

I have to admit, I really like The Hellfire Compact, the first book of Hell's Vengeance. Wesley Schneider comes up with enough reasons to get an evil party to work together, but I'm really satisfied by his use of the NPC village folk, reusing them in multiple scenarios, giving them enough personality and making it so that being a mega-douche to them isn't as easy as you think it will be. While you do feel a little sorry reading about what happens to them, you are outright encouraged and rewarded for doing so. Still, the adventure gives you a lot of leeway, a ton more than normal APs do.

In a normal AP, the players are expected to kick in the door and murder everyone because they're Evil, but in Hellfire Compact, you can play around a lot. You could murder every person you lay eyes on, but that would not just upset your boss and turn the town against you faster, but you can choose to have multiple solutions. You can kill them or, as agents of the Baron, throw them in the stocks/jail for some public humiliation. You can shake them down and force them to pay you to let them off with a warning or just beat them senseless to teach them a lesson. It doesn't make assumptions on how you play and gives a lot of freedom. Langacre could be a pristine gem of your tyrannical rule or a flaming wreckage by the time you get done with it, your choice. And it doesn't try and make you feel guilty with heavy handed maudlin tactics.

There's so much opportunity to play, you can go through the game feeling totally justified for your dick-ass behavior.
>It's not my fault the innkeeper has to be executed, he's a Wereboar after all. He's a monster!

The final boss, the Angel Knight, is probably the best thought out villain for a first issue AP since Nualia.

I'm looking forward to reading the rest. I have high hopes in Rob McCreary.

Hello /pfg/! Long-time lurker, first-time poster.

I just wanted to ask what are some cool classes to play in Jade Regent? My DM's eager to try that AP out and it looks fantastic!

>>46190325
Just to suffer?

>>46190994
What all is available? Core only? paizo only? 3.5? 3pp? What position do you want to try to fill?

>>46190994
Hoo boy, tell him to not use the caravan rules for starters. As for classes, try taking a look at the 6th level casters (Alchemist, Bard, Mesmerist, Occultist, etc.), those are generally a good balance of power and "not raping the game".

>>46190994
There's a lot of chillin' outside so you might actually be able to get away with Samurai/Cavalier. Ninja is also setting-appropriate. Other than classes that are shitty in every situation I don't know what to tell you. What do you want to do?

>>46190911
hmm.. I was hoping for something like Armillary Amulet. It's 2500gp for +5 spellcraft, but it's the only item I knew.

He's open to all Paizo material, and is kinda new to the system itself (he DMed 3.5e for a decade) which makes me want to suggest Path of War to him because hey, that's just like Tome of Battle!

As for what I want to play? I don't really know, there's something about travel and a lot of things related to relationships, I'm thinking of playing a swordsy type to get in good with Ameiko.

>>46191055

Gotcha, will tell him on Skype when I get the chance.

>>46191060

Ooh, Cavalier sounds good, I've always been a fan of fighting types with heavy armor.

>>46190911
>>46190868
Actually... Can I use Cyclops Helm on my spellcraft check? That's would be an equivalent of +10.

>>46191122
You're embarassing yourself, lurk moar.

Tell me GM fampais, what enjoyment do you derive from running an AP? The way I see it, most GMs use them as training wheels to practice before running their own story.

Is it for the ERP maybe? Or just for the opportunity to witness how bad/good the players make of each situation?

I GM myself of course, but only use my own stuff and derive most of my enjoyment from the tactics end of combat where I control varied groups of units vs PCs.

I'm looking into playing a tiefling that dual wields repeating crossbows. I would be taking five levels in gunslinger (bolt ace archetype) for dex to damage and better crits. I'd be using my tail to reload the crossbows.

A) I know the build is suboptimal, and whilst I'm looking for it to be fun I don't want to be completely useless in combat. Will I be at least moderately useful I.e. tier 4?
B) is there a way for me to get iterative attacks whilst dual wielding repeating crossbows?
C) would it be better to use heavy crossbows or light crossbows? With TWF am I right it would be -2/-2 for light and -4/-4 for heavy?
D) what class should I go into after gunslinger?

>>46191243

In my experience, the "Training Wheels" and "Watch How Bad/Good the Players Make Everything" interpretations are pretty spot-on. Haven't really done any ERP myself, in an AP or otherwise, so I couldn't say whether or not that's interesting.

>>46191237
Yes, Cyclops helm is essentially a take 20 once per day.

>>46191306
>curly tentacle eyebrows from a JRPG are the same as the rigid WoW Elf eyebrows

Paizo Internet Defense Force hard at work.

>>46191243
For me its about not wasting time building stat blocks from scratch and running a group through a theme adventure they want to try out. For someone with a full time job, it's a amazing time saver. I get to focus on RPing more than combat and the players spend more time interacting with the world and each other than waiting for their turn to come around.

It also has appeal of seeing how players react and deal with set scenarios which they then go on to share in story form with other players. Back in the day, a lot of people could relate to each other after playing through the same modules and their 'We Did This' stories.

>>46191340
Thanks! I should be aiming for that first! Good things it's super easy to craft too.

>You channel the momentum of your attacks into a leaping dance, allowing you to maneuver across the battlefield with every blow. After initiating this boost, you can move up to 10 feet as a free action without provoking attacks of opportunity each time you make an attack until the start of your next turn.
Does let you move 10 feet whenever you make a counter too?

>>46191423

That is a very sensible attitude, and it pains me that we live in a world where it is.

>>46191548
>After initiating this boost, you can move up to 10 feet as a free action without provoking attacks of opportunity each time you make an attack until the start of your next turn.

Assuming the counter allows you to make an attack.

>>46191572
But can you take a free action when it's not your turn?

>>46191598

Ah, good point. No, you can't, then.

>>46191598
Yes.

>>46191423

So what you're saying is the "real" DM is the alpha Chad, and the DM forced to pick up the mess is the beta boy you "settle" on?

Makes sense, they get all the enjoyment of people begging for their DM dick and bail when it goes from fun to obligation.

>>46191598

You can, depending.

The wording of the boost is "until the start of your next turn", which implies that it can be used when it's not your turn. Otherwise it would be "until the end of your turn".

>>46191598
No, but Paizo rules text often forgets this anyway.

>>46191673
No idea what your talking about, But that wording is just to make it clear that it lasts through everyone elses turn that round, but is not up for your next action. Not that you can use it any time.
Usually.

>>46191673
Free actions can't be used off-turn, though.

>>46191704

I'm talking about Endless Current.

If it wasn't intended to let you move during others' turns, then the wording would be "until the end of your turn". This is to allow AoOs and counters to let you move around.

>>46191673
>>46191699
The answer is these two together. Devs just forget this all the time, so while strict RAW is "you can't", the intent in this particular case is made clear just by the fact that it lasts until the start of your next turn instead of the end of your turn.

>>46191765
Well I know they're watching and cleaning it up for the print version, so I'll assume it'll be fixed to the RAI.

Quick question /pfg/, how does the frequency of our shitstorms compare to other /tg/ generals? I think teeg on the whole is vulnerable to bait, but I doubt our ability to stay on topic/ change our opinion or stance on something/ other good discussion habit.

Paizo outsources most of their art from deviant-art.

>>46191985
I mean, it's not like it's bad for an artist to have up samples of their work, right?

>>46191714
Some free actions can. The important part about free actions is that they usually occur as part of another action, so for example you can draw an arrow (free action) and fire it as an AoO if you have Snap Shot, even though it's not your turn. You can't take free actions that occur by themselves like dropping a held item unless it's your turn, although that's always up for debate.

In this case though, you get a free action to move as part of an attack, including AoOs.

I can't decide what to buy for my magus with 12000 GP left to spend.

A tavern.

Call it the Musty Magus, and make a custom pair of brews you call the "Spellstrike" and "Shocking Grasp."

>>46192110
The party yes. The plot not really. My GM always keeps the plots interesting, but he is say too eager to accept new players that need to be handheld, and change their characters views all the time. I've often just stopped caring about them because they weren't good characters.

My character's already got some money tied up in one "business" (he funded the creation of a new mage's school in the local area and occasionally teaches there when he can spare the time), so I don't think he can manage to run a second one and still find the time for adventuring and shit.

IMMORTAL TRUTHS OF THE SLEEPING GODDESS
Discipline: Sleeping Goddess (Strike) [mind-affecting]
Level: 9
Prerequisites: Four Sleeping Goddess maneuvers
Initiation Action: 1 standard action
Range: Melee or ranged attack
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Standing at the pinnacle of the Sleeping Goddess discipline’s students, you have the ability to share your beliefs in a way that no others can. By making contact with your opponent’s mind and soul, you can open a dialogue, communicating your respective ideals instantaneously and debating their merits. Make an attack. If it hits, it deals an additional 10d6 points of damage. If this damage would reduce the target to 0 or fewer hit points, you can attempt to convert them to your way of thinking, clashing beliefs in a brief moment of spiritual contact. If you do, you and the target make an opposed ability check, with you using your initiation modifier and the target using its Charisma modifier. If the target succeeds, they take damage as normal, potentially killing them or knocking them unconscious. If you succeed, the target is instead reduced to 1 hit point, and their attitude towards you and your allies changes to helpful.

What are some classes that scream "I use scythes" I kinda want to make a reaper character now.

>>46192777
Prestidigitation

>>46192790

Harbinger.

>>46190470
>>46190489
>>46192780
This is not a compulsion, nor is it forcing the target to follow your orders, but rather the result of a spiritual conversation that took place in the instant of the strike. The target now understands your beliefs and ideals and either believes in them as well or respects your belief enough to be unwilling to oppose you. Regardless of whether or not the target succeeds on their check, you gain a deep understanding of their own beliefs and ideals. While you have this maneuver readied and unexpended, you automatically know the current hit point total of each creature within your melee reach.
Augment: You can augment this maneuver in one or more of the following ways:
• For every power point you spend, this strike deals an additional 1d6 points of damage. For every 2d6 you increase the damage by, you gain a +1 bonus on your ability check.
• If you expend your psionic focus while initiating this strike, you ignore any immunity to mindaffecting effects the target possesses.

>>46193161

>>46193245
Generally, it's better to get crits more often, especially with Deadly Strike, since it allows you to add the damage for a number of rounds each time it triggers. Also, Stalkers can become Privateers. They replace Blending, Improved Blending, and the ability to regain a maneuver as a standard action.

Pathfinder is not the system you use for that game.

I did the moment she mentioned she wants "realistic characters" after mentioning the PB.

>>46193361

>10 PB
Congratulations, you've managed to twist the game to the point where plain Fighter actually might be a viable choice.

I don't see WHY it can't work.

All depends on what kind of challenges and opponents you throw at them.

I've turned dropping out of shit games into an art-form.

One time I managed to make *them* drop *me* before we even had our second session.

pls comfort me, /pfg/. I'm considering playing a martial with dumped Int for the first time in my life.

I... I tell myself I'll make it up with class features in a couple levels, and with the ability to actually hit things right now, but seeing that 8 Int... it hurts me bad.

>>46193453

I'm sure it can work. But you're limping along with something that's technically possible rather than just using a system designed for low magic.

It's like playing a game of serious intrigue and psychological drama using Everyone Is John. Yeah, I mean, I guess you could? But why?

>>46193489
It's not going to be okay, anon.

You're not going to enjoy this at all.

>>46193480
Only to meet the expected challenges.

There's nothing saying you can't make encounters for the 10 PB, 'realistic' characters people make.

>>46193489
Don't do it anon.

Tell me of your martial. Speak to me of them.

>>46193510
Of course the type of people that want to run such a game generally don't change the challenges.

Antipaladin with VMC bard. I get too much benefit out of that extra Charisma mod to sacrifice it for a mere one skill rank per level; I need as much Cha as I can get if I want my cruelties to actually go off on anything. And I get versatile performance at 11th, which is effectively a free rank, and I've got bardic knowledge in the meantime so I'm still better at knowledge than any non-Int-class...

I'm such a munchkining piece of shit oh god

>>46193634

A college degree and your father's love.

DAZE or COLOR SPRAY?

>>46193634
17 15 12 12 8 8 is a decent starting array. Cha and INT are the obvious choices for the eights.

>>46193650
Okay. Charisma is good. But what other stats do you have? Do you really need those?

>>46193669
I think I'd rather go 16, 14, 14, 12, 10, 8

>>46193669
>two odd numbers
>decent
One is okay, tops. Fuck off, impostor.

>>46193732
Why? You can bump them both up to the even value by level 8, and 17->18 and 15->16 is really expensive.

>>46193773
>by level 8
Optimistic. You can just drop them and invest points elsewhere, like not dumping any stats. The original question did want to avoid that.

>>46193708
I could drop my Dex to a 12 and buy back the Int that way, but I'm going for a in-the-thick-of-it buff/heal-auras role (Dread Vanguard stuff), and I know that makes me the prime target for enemies, so I'm kinda terrified of not having enough AC.

And before you say it, I know AC is the worst defense, but frankly I don't trust our caster players to provide cantrips, let alone proper defensive buffs.

>>46193669
>>46193718
My array is 17 15 12 12 10 7 currently. Statline is 16 14 12 8 9 18 after racials and every-4th-HD points. Yeah my race is super not optimal, got no choice tho

>>46191296

A.) If you can manage to keep a steady stream of bolts going, you should be OK as long as your party isn't highly optimized and your GM's writing scenarios based on what the party can actually do (this is surprisingly not the case for many GMs.)
B.) You're really going to need to come to an understanding with your GM here, because you're up the creek without a paddle RAW. It's a free action to reload and keep firing until you run out of bolts in your repeater box thingy, but the rules do say you need a hand available to do that. If your GM is allowing the prehensile tail to reload a repeating crossbow (a task normally requiring two hands) he should probably also allow you to flick that switch without having a hand free, but you're going to be relying on his houserule there.
C.) Light crossbows. You're correct that Heavy crossbows incur a heavier TWF penalty, and you're gonna need accuracy more than your average gunslinger.
D.) Slayer and Unchained Rogue might offer some appealing sniping options to let you pick your poison between precise single shots and HAIL O' BOLTS, but I will also point out a few levels in the juggler bard can really be good for you because then you can use their juggling thing to have a rules-legal way to always have a hand free even while TWF, which you can use for somatic components and even deflect (and later snatch) enemy ranged weapons, which is not a thing to be sneezed at. Also some spells, skills, and more power to your will save.

Don't hide it from me, /pfg/.
Tell me about that time all the players in your party brought characters centered on the same theme/trope without premeditation or prompting.

???

>>46193854
I would drop your dex. Above level 8 your primary defenses start becoming "killing them faster", "not failing saves", and "breaking Line of sight". AC is really nice to have at lower levels but monster BAB just scales way to fucking fast.

>>46191296
two levels of alchemist and a feat give you two extra hands. I recommend fighter to get all of the necessary TWF feats.

Supposing I wanted to use automatic bonus progression, but wanted to remove weapon and armor attunement from it because I think they're dumb. What percentage of WBL do you think I should get my PCs?

>>46193927
Well there was the one time me and another guy both brought swashbucklers with similar backgrounds (not the class, this was way before ACG).

I wanted to have a duel to the death in-character and let the survivor join the party, but NO FUN ALLOWED and I wound up making an alchemist or something instead.

>>46193650
You aren't a munchkin because you're playing an Anti-Paladin.

They are NPC classes because they suck, not because they're OP.

Can you cast Enlarge Person on a dead body? It says the target has to be a humanoid creature, doesn't specify that it has to be living.

>>46193961
Make it 3/4 wealth by level?

>>46193983
Dead things are objects.

>>46188589
You can't even imagine how badly I need new stuff of the other outsiders

Fuck the main 3, and fuck this game

>>46193983
Dead things aren't creatures, they're objects.

>>46193941
Assuming you'll make it to level 8 is optimistic, lad.

>>46193854
>>46193854
Drop dex to 12. Full plate has a max dex of +1 anyway.

>>46194016
>>46193998

>Bodies are objects

There are some implications to this I'd rather not delve into.

>>46194041
Mithral full plate is +3, but a +4 belt is pretty reasonable in the late game anyway.

>>46193972

Man, that sounds like it could have been fun. Your GM a shit.

Can you take iterative attacks with caltrop beads and just blanket an area with caltrops?

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/c-d/caltrop-bead

>>46194109
It's not a weapon, and quickdraw only applies to weapons (right?) So I don't see how you'd be able to get iteratives.

>>46194082
DEAD bodies are objects, you stupid fucker.

Have you ever said or done anything in a campaign that has just stuck with you as an "oh god what the fuck was I thinking" moment? The type of shit you'd cringe at remembering?

>>46194109
Don't see why not. Not sure how it interacts with a magical sling since it's a wondrous item. Seems a bit expensive to use with full attacks, so I would just spend that money on potions myself DESU.

>>46194148
I've played while drinking numerous times, so probably yes. If I remembered.

>>46194146

That's what I meant you goddamn baka.

I challenged the switch-hitter Catfolk Ranger to a drinking contest.

Manlets. When will we learn?

>>46194137
Ah, good point. I was thinking of it as a throwing weapon or ammunition. But, I suppose you could circumvent that limitation if you were holding a handful of them. They're very small, after all, so you should be able to.

>>46194151
Cheap enough to have a few at mid levels. The damage isn't the important part, the important part is that any creature that steps on caltrops gets their speed cut in half for 24 hours or until they remove them.

>>46194214

Why do the Japanese always draw their Western royalty with those stupid tiny crowns?

We didn't wear those, god dammit, it was either full-sized things or integrated into a helmet.
