Friendly reminder to tell us what 3pp your game allows if you need character building help.

Why aren't you playing a worshiper of Hastur who fulfills his Deific Obedience by dressing like a pretty princess in a floofy poofy gown every day?

Hello all. I've just pushed an update to the Spellburst Savant (v37 now). In particular:

>removed their ability to turn damage cantrips into healing (sorry)
>added clarifying wording to Extracurricular Spells about components/levels/etc

ALSO. I wanted to let people know that this Friday, I'm going to be taking the patron vote for which project I start for uploading next month. Might not be relevant to most people, but for people who've pledged, check your email when it comes up.

I joked about my character getting a piece of his soul shaved off and shoved into the Sorshen clone from SS, resulting in a separate, entirely new person. Similar to how soulbound constructs work. This was because I thought we were writing the clone off and never speaking of it again. The GM latched onto that shit and took off with it. Turns out despite another player's insistence, he did not in fact want to just ignore the clone.

I need suggestions for more spirits for the Unchained Medium!

In the latest version, I've included means for the UnMedium to change out their feats, so that they can ACTUALLY be versatile! I've also upped the amount of influence they can accrue at later levels before suffering penalties or losing control, which means more uses for your abilities!

Currently, I'm stumped on: Neutral Evil Intelligence, the Lawful spirits (Good, Neutral, Evil) of Charisma, the Evil spirits of Dexterity (Lawful, NE, Chaotic Evil).

I had some ideas, but keep in mind:

>Each Primary Spirit (the original six spirits of the medium) has an ability score associated with it
>Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma
>Champion, Trickster, Guardian, Archmage, Hierophant, Marshal, respectively

The secondary spirits (what I'm calling the other spirits that the medium can channel alongside his Legendary/Primary spirits) should fit under one of those categories.

For Neutral Evil, I was thinking something like a Daemon, something of calculated destruction. Should I take some of the features from the Daemon sorcerer bloodline for it? Or just come up with something unique? I already pretty much stole stuff from the Draconic Bloodline for the LG Strength Spirit (The Dragon).

For the Lawful Charisma spirits, I was thinking:

>Lawful Good Charisma: the Gallant: Lay on Hands, Channel Energy, stuff for protecting the innocent
>Lawful Neutral Charisma: the Merchant: can alter the properties of magical items? I don't have any ideas
>Lawful Evil Charisma: the Seducer: Succubus???

For the Evil Dexterity Spirits:

>Lawful Evil Dexterity: The Assassin: Gets sneak attack, possibly invisibility and teleportation?
>Neutral Evil Dexterity: The Mercenary: Dex-to-Damage, Weapon Finesse, crit-fishing?
>Chaotic Evil Dexterity: I have no clue

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QwizRjfkg0inFpMqG22lHdIcIRt9glXY_SyAdFJv-wU/edit

The link is above- comment and suggest stuff if you have ideas!

>>
>>49337350
By default, I think you can get sneak attack on ranged attacks made within 30 feet of the target, but because you can't flank with ranged attacks they have to actually be flat-footed. That basically means you'd be able to get your sneak attack, but only during the start of combat.

>>49338313
Ninja's a little better than normal Rogue, but falls behind Unchained, largely due to the innate dexterity to damage that unchained rogues get.

What you could do, is ask your DM if they mind letting a Ninja have an Unchained Rogue's finesse training. It's 100% reasonable.

That's true. Those are some gnarly penalties.

Ninja's initial lead over Rogue might end up leaving it and Unchained abooout even if Ninja got finesse training though. Or only slightly worse.

>This is a perfectly legal option. A samsaran wizard could indeed take the bard's 3rd level version of confusion as a spell. He'd get it at a lower level, but he'd also get the lower save DC associated with it being a lower level.

So a samsaran wizard can break Mystic Past Life even further by choosing from multiple spell lists, including the alchemist spell list?

Why is the alchemist arcane all of a sudden?

Nigga you dumb. Direct save penalties and forced roll twice take lowest are what let you do that. Evil eye is a no save -4 to saves that can be done as a swift action.

Against enemies with decent saves giving penalties to this saves is essentially required instead of just throwing things at them that they're gonna pass.

Nobody "gets into" Pathfinder, kid.

We play Pathfinder because we're stuck with groups that won't play anything else, because THEY were stuck with groups that wouldn't play anything else, because THEY, etcetera.

And because you have to sink dozens, HUNDREDS of hours into learning how to make the game NOT suck ass, nobody wants to move on to better systems, because that would mean we've wasted our time on this pile of shit.

So when someone new wants to join our group, we too, in turn, won't play anything else.

If you want to play a decent game of Pathfinder, you need a dozen different books from half as many publishers just to DREAM of achieving some decent systems.

What's wrong with Bladelock, senpai? I'm playing a Feyblade (let it rip) Warlock in a 5e game. It's not the STRONGEST at the table, but it certainly isn't underperforming.
>>
>>49339313
Alright so, here's the deal.

Pathfinder, like all D&D-descended d20 TTRPGs, is really two games. The character-generation game, and the table game.

The character generation game, especially now after, what, almost a decade of splatbooks and hundreds of third-party publishers, is unmatched in all the world. You can spend weeks finding the perfect combination of stuff to make your dream sheet.

The table game, where you USE that character, fucking sucks. It's constantly getting in the WAY of everything you want to do. But you had so much fun, sunk so much time into, MAKING the character, that not playing would feel like a waste, so you trudge through the bullshit math until you're allowed to have fun again.
>>
>>49339313
Well, there's a wealth of material full of options that makes for an interesting character creation when you want to make a certain character concept while dancing around the trap options. It also has some interesting subsystems and good 3pp content.

Overall, once past character creation I'd still rather play a different game.

Bladelock is a mechanical abortion. Literally everything it does would be accomplished better by refluffing a Paladin, a Bladesinger, or an EK. If you're having fun with it, though, don't pay a shits worth of attention to me, because it's basically impossible to be actually BAD in 5e.

I play a Bladelock too

We are playing currently at 9th level with automatic bonus progression and one of the players just founded a Kingdom of undead. Since some characters of the group dont really work with that they agreed to make new characters since they like the plot of that so far. I said they'd be able to make characters based of undead with. Class levels or related templates, but reserving a right to veto things, as a gm should. Now, One of my players wants to make a character with the ghost template. The thought of an incorporeal nearly indestructible pc with some nasty special attacks strikes some alarm bells with me. First he wanted to make the ghost a mesmerist, which i rejected since i didn't want to bring in occult classes, now he wants to do a paladin. Anyone got advice wether or not i should allow the ghost template? What kind of fuckery would i be in fir? or what do do with that?

so some irl friends heard of pathfinder and asked me to dm it for them. they are new to ttrpgs and ive dabbled in pathfinder and mostly play 4/5e dnd. i got some pdfs from the dump and based on race class put them in darkmoon vale.

being first time players the backstories are ass but they didnt want my help and they didnt link backstories so i crafted a scenario that appeals to every character but i need a place to put it. its essentially a lich king spreading plague and disease as he tries to aquire stronger dark magic. Cheliax seemed the kind of place to throw but if there's a better place to torch into the ground i would appreciate it.

Hypothetically, if you were to raise a chimera, is it in good taste to give it just one name or give each different head a name?

>>
>>49341877
Well, generally speaking pets get one name, but people get three, first, middle and family.

Anyway i would imagine it depends on if each head is a seperate thinking entity. If they have separate consciousness, perhaps more names are suitable, with a single "overall" name to represent the combined being.
Like The heads might be named David, Michael and Abel, with Damibel as the "collective" name.

Speaking of emotions, would a class based on channeling emotions be interesting? Like someone (by which I mean probably a 2/3s caster) could align themselves with different emotions to get certain powers, like ANGER making them a buff melee powerhouse but cutting them off from spells ala Barbarian or Hope helping them keep allies up and fighting with some light buffing on the side?

Assuming, of course, that the class were built in such a way where it wasn't too easy to switch between the emotions so you can just be anything the party needs whenever they need it.

if you're going to be relying on a companion for your grapples, I have four things to tell you.

First, Hunter is THE companion class with a huge variety of buffs for companions. Since your companion is the one that's going to be doing the majority of the work, you need it to be as buff as you can get it. If you don't want to roll with a Hunter, then Druid is your next best bet. Feyspeaker in particular, due to point #4

Second, make space in your build for one level of Mammoth Rider. This is important because increasing your pet's size will push what you can grapple and, therefore, slaughter.

Third, the constrictor falls off after a while. while it's the only companion to get grab from level one, past that point you need to swap over to an allosaurus, big cat, or warcat, as they'll keep up longer, can do more damage when something no-sells their gimmick, and the cats are viable options for mammoth rider.

Finally, have at least 13 points in charisma. Reason for this is simple; the Evolved Companion feat is ridiculously good for any build focused on companions.

5e is only boring if you're one of those weirdos who can only get off on chargen and dungeon crawls.

5e is popular, which means a lot of games, which means a lot of shit but also a lot of gems. If you can't have fun in a gem because the character sheet is "boring," than something's wrong with you.

No, it makes you appear to be someone of influence and power to them. It's an appearance chancing power, not a mind affectign spells. A roach will literally see you as a bigger roach, a deer will see you as the leader of a herd, etc. It's a spell around you that affects only what they see.

All glamers are like that. it doesn't affect what they think, only what they actually are lookign at.

>>49343995
>No, it makes you appear to be someone of influence and power to them.

Most people are not gem cutters, which means while a lump of ruby has value compared to a lump of glass, odds are that ruby is going to come out all mediocre or disappointing.

Compare that to the lump of glass, for while it lacks the value of the ruby it will be far easier to carve into a pleasing shape, which while worthless is something you will spend far more time on admiring than the ruby.

Actually I would not.

I wouldn't be against allowing more stuff as I get acclimated to the rules. (Not for this game though, as that'd be unfair to the players I already have)

Each creature with whom you attempt to leverage your newfound authority receives a Will save to disbelieve the illusion. Otherwise, it treats you as it would its direct superior. Creatures with different direct superiors see you in different ways, which can potentially lead to conflicts that allow additional saving throws (for instance, if a cook sees you as the head chef, he might be quite perplexed to see the vizier treating you as if you were the king).

>>49344095
15 BP just encourages even more caster supremacy. Martials are typically fairly MAD needing a combination of Strength, Dexterity and Constitution, plus possibly other stats (Charisma for Paladins, Wisdom for Monks and Rangers, etc).

15 BP means you are only going to have one decent stat, which is fine for making a caster, but it hurts when trying to make non-casters. And non-casters are already sitting in the backseat compared to casters to begin with.

Hey guys, still new to the game and have been reading a lot. A video or two would be nice though.

After looking at youtube the first pathfinder related channel you really see is DawnForgedCast. His channel seems to be the largest, but I want any other channel, literally any other channel.

His production values suck, and he's a fucking faggot.

Any good channels or should I just man up and read read read.

My entire party, including GM was mad at me so GM made everyone go to a point-buy system while allowing class changes. We are playing Reign of Winter.

We rolled stats, and we all had really good stats. The thing was we had a Stalker without Deadly Agility and 10 Str, a Wizard with like 22-23 int, a utility Monk focused on teleporting and combat maneuvers, and me as a paladin with 20 Str and an Earthbreaker.

I was 1 shotting most things as the Paladin when I cared to. I was a Chosen One archetype and RPing as a "bad paladin", generally not caring about the party yet (we level 2), since due to people leaving and joining already, none of the original party except the paladin is in the story. Everyone hated this character because even someone that got Paladin thrust upon them should be a 100% LG Paladin to the max.

>>49344345
My groups current campaign is a Spelljammer game. The PC's are all various shades of evil bastards. We're working for some ancient lich, traveling to different worlds trying to find various artifacts of Vecna, as this lich we're working for wants to follow in his footsteps and become a god.

Our last session involved us landing on some world and slaughtering a community of lizardfolk in order to excavate a tomb that the silly primitives were treating as holy ground.

Nothing too lewd has happened yet, though once we're done excavating this tomb we're headed for an asteroid/bar/strip-club/brothel where an ex-girlfriend of the ship's captain is working, because apparently she has information we need (or she's planning to set him up and kill him, or possibly both). Things will likely get a little lewd.

Have you looked at the Chosen One Archetype?

You are not really a paladin. You get a Familiar that helps guide you along the way. Makes you a better paladin. At level 1-2, you wouldn't exactly be strictly following the Paladin code as a normal Paladin would. You don't even get Knowledge Religion as a class skill, your familiar does and gains ranks in it each time you advance to a new level.

I still like the idea that at level 7 your familiar turns into a Quasit and, poof, you find out you're an anti-paladin and that you were being trained as a paladin the whole time as part of an elaborate prank.

It was a gradual thing; she was assigned to the party as a way for the DM to help us out, a sort of advisor that could give out free heals or smites if we got in over our heads. My character started talking to her, we'd spend sessions bantering or talking about our pasts, and over time the DM dropped situations where my character could try and develop the relationship into something more than professional, which I took because hey, good RP is good RP.

It also helps she's described as a tall, muscular woman with glossy black lips, an ample figure and has aged "gracefully."

Somebody check me on this: can the Eldritch Guardian, Martial Master, and Dervish of Dawn/Dawnflower Dervish fighter archetypes be stacked? I was thinking of playing a scimitar-wielding Arabic man with his familiar being a snake or hawk w/ the Sage and Figment archetypes to be like a spirit animal.

Yes, they can stack, since none of them replace the same features. Why you would want to get rid of Weapon Training when you want to focus on one weapon is beyond me.

The scimitar is just for being able to get Dex to Damage, along with possibly using a longbow somewhat competently. I was aiming for a "Wanderer" kind of character thats very flexible and can adapt to situations as needed, so Martial Master for Flexibility makes a good amount of sense to have. He also might have a spirit animal that guides him on his journey.
>>
>>49346647
You could just get Barroom Brawler. It's not as much, but it'd still be there.
>>
>>49346647
Honestly, Advanced Weapon Training is probably superior to Martial Master's Martial Flexibility memes, and like >>49346689 said, you could just get barroom brawler, then take the Abundant Tactics AWT to add a number of uses equal to your weapon training bonus. You'll have bonus feats out the ears anyway, even with Eldritch Guardian eating your first two feats.

Guys, my GM and I have come to a halt regarding a combination of feral mutagen and enlarge person exctract.

When i drink feral mutagen (as a medium creature) i gain "The claw attacks deal 1d6 points of damage and the bite attack deals 1d8 points of damage".

When i drink "enlarge person", do my natural weapons (claws and bite) increase with me to "claw 1d8/bite 2d6" or do they stay the same "claws 1d6/1d8"?

The difference in oppinions is that "claws 1d6/bite 1d8" is already a weapon level of a size LARGE creature.

So, what's your ruling? Do my natural weapons grow in size making them as a "huge" creature natural weapons or do they stay the same as a "large" natural weapons?

Isn't it logical - if i have nails 10cm long and incisors 5cm long, and I drink "enlarge person" they become 20cm and 10cm long, respectivly? I already have them at that length, the extract makes them even bigger.
>>
>>49346735
Your shit scales up with you because your claws and bite grow with you, therefore it would scale up to the 1d8 claws and 2d6 bite. Your GM is being a little shit about it because he's retarded.
>>
>>49346735
When you enlarge person everything increases size, anon, including natural weapons and their die
>>
>>49346735
It gives other values for if the alchemist is small, so it stands to reason that the dice should go up for being large.
>>
>>49346724
>>49346689

Martial Master still has the advantage that you get more uses and can change out multiple feats at once.

Although

Looking at it, the Myrmidon archetype might be compatible with it as well.
>>
>>49346735
It doesn't matter if the damage is already for a Large Creature, EVERYTHING grows. This means that you would have Huge claws and Bite damage.
>>
>>49344472
Read. At least, the main line of books.

If you're looking at these as a player, just look over stuff pertaining to playable races, classes, equipment, feats, traits, etc. etc.

3rd party options are available, some as you may already have noticed are rather popular around here.

The archivesofnethys website is a great place to start for reading up on classes and whatnot, but if you need to find rules, the Paizo PRD usually helps.

There's rules specifically for gun commonality. They're a pain in the ass for anyone but a gunslinger to use, and they only get them down to 'a thorn in my side' level.

if you plan on making use of guns in your campaign, go for the Guns everwhere rules. Guns are already kinda shitty due to misfire and having a load mechanic - there's no reason to punish a player for a suboptimal choice further. you need to get a rifle with the reliable enchantment and take rapid reload to get past the longbow.

First off disregard >>49338226 and >>49338430.
Bad advice that doesn't help you or answer your question.

With your stats your STR score will be decent enough, you don't need Dex to damage that badly and weapon finesse can be taken through a ninja trick if you're that short on feats.

My advice would be to grab as many ki saving items you can, until then be very careful about when you use them. (Don't go invisible unless you actually need to.)

Forgotten Ninja Trick is probably one of my other mandatory tricks to learn aside from invisibility. It costs 2 Ki Points but gives you access to every other ninja trick in addition to a combat feat if you need it. (Say blind-fight or weapon focus or something).

Grab a ring of ki mastery and if you have a cleric/oracle/decentumdskill you'll want a wand or scrolls of this:
