Working on a character concept based on the idea of a "failed fake wizard".
Currently using this archetype, http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/rogue/archetypes/paizo---rogue-archetypes/counterfeit-mage
and planning to get a wand of fireball I cannot afford.
Needing:
-Ways to increase wealth (besides Rich Parents Traits)
- Wand related feats or such.
- Any way to make this character cuter.

So here we go again.

I'm working on a 5-level PrC based off Souleater, tentatively called the Soulhunter. No familiar/summoning shenanigans and more open to noncasters.

Since this is gonna be a new thread anyways, I'd like to ask for some advice on building a wizard, since I'm still not 100% on the best way to go about it.

Starting level is 9th, with one mythic tier (yeah, yeah, I know, archmage/wild arcana).
I do want to do some crafting things, and the 'every crafting feat' path ability is on the table, but I'm not sure what the best school choice is for that option. Is it universal? Enchantment? Abjuration?

I need more time in my day to read these things

Anyway, I have about one or two traps in each leg of an adventure.

They may not be enough to kill the Warder that's tripping them, but it encourages good judgement and patience.

The Trap Finder trait makes it so no one needs to take levels in Rogue or Investigator, but it could be useful for a Vigilante (Slayer).

Master Craftsman, Create Wands?

>>49584129
>Benefit: Choose one Craft or Profession skill in which you possess at least 5 ranks. You receive a +2 bonus on your chosen Craft or Profession skill. Ranks in your chosen skill count as your caster level for the purposes of qualifying for the Craft Magic Arms and Armor and Craft Wondrous Item feats. You can create magic items using these feats, substituting your ranks in the chosen skill for your total caster level. You must use the chosen skill for the check to create the item. The DC to create the item still increases for any necessary spell requirements (see the magic item creation rules in Magic Items). You cannot use this feat to create any spell-trigger or spell-activation item.

Do you see wands in there?

Hildegard Valentine from Shadow Hearts: From the New World.

So, I'm planning out a sort of Civ-style campaign with the Ultimate Rulership splat and general campaign stuff.

Basically, the central PCs are demigods (Paragons) created to unify a few tribes under the banner of a god (or coalition of gods) to gain dominion over this newly created world.

I've decided that the initial spells available to both the Paragons and secondary PCs/NPCs of their civilization will be limited to what any caster Paragons bring with them into the world at creation. Arcane simply not having been researched, and Divine power being as young as the world.

I'm not quite sure how long I want spells to take to research though.

I was thinking 1 month/Spell Level, and probably 3-4 BP/month to finance the arcane research/strengthen the faith of the god to allow these spells.

Alright, so can a combat butler / battle maid be done using 1pp?

Was thinking about using the character concept at the same time that I'd get the chance to try out aether kineticist, but figured I'd at least ask around if there are better ways to go about it with 1pp content.

I'm well aware of the 3pp classes, not to mention using PoW Extended for time-stop meido, but content restrictions.

I like that it's more generic than the Souleater. Not specifically worshiping the Horsemen is good. Also like it being 5 levels instead of 10, and advancing normal class features. Eliminates my major complaints about Souleater.

Not sure this class does exactly what I'd want either. If I'm taking a class about stealing souls, I want to do it a lot. It's probably going to be the character's thing. As it is, this caps out at three gems per day. that's not much soul stealing. If you want to keep Soul Lock's immediately after combat role restricted to a few times per day, write up an occult ritual that harvests a soul from a captive or something, make them automatically learn it, and give them a casting bonus. Or some other such thing so they can steal souls more often.

Does soul locking via energy drain count against your normal uses?

Colonial fantasy. 1500's level technology or so. Party is leading a colonial company.

-Heavy focus on planar interactions. There are points where planar travel is easy enough that you can just walk through, but you don't always know where you go. You know you're going to a earth plane, you don't know which. These are dangerous and valuable resources that justify adventurers as a profession.

-Lots of colonialism. Old world is crashing into new, some are resisting, some aren't. Some extraplanar colonization. New World is a mixture of Asia and Americas. Old world has republic/monarchy conflicts and reformation type things going on. Main powers are Poland-Lithuania as a colonial power with a thing for alchemy, fractured HRE, Franco-Spanishland that uses colonies to get rid of dissidents, and Welsh archipelago in a planar convergence point that sometimes spawns islands, and a sort of Greek merchant republic.

-Everyone reincarnates, religious focuses on how you break that cycle. Alternate between mortal and outsider lives. Mortals strengthen their souls (justifies levels, kind of and stat disparities) faster, but outsiders live until killed. Aztec samurailand says you can prevent it if you're strong but you weaken over time, others call for divine intercession and so on. Or maybe just sell your soul to be sure you reincarnate somewhere good.

It does count against uses yes. I mostly added that free-action usage to make it a little easier to nab souls midcombat if you finish someone off with it.

I would make it have a higher cap, but something I'm concerned about is the potential value you'd get out of soul-locking pretty much everything you come across, particularly if you're a crafter.

But then again, a Basic soul is only worth 100 gold, and there isn't any actual hard ruling on what differentiates a basic soul from a notable soul or a big'n'fancy soul.

Maybe I'll raise the cap and actually write something out to clarify what gives what type of soul.

Thanks for the input!

So, if I wanted to run a module- Not a full adventure path, but maybe a lengthy module, which would I go with? I'm currently leaning to Tears of Bitter Manor, but I'm somewhat uncertain as to whether I should start with that.

Hey there, /pfg/

Can I get some more input and criticisms for my homebrew class, the Empyrius? I'd gladly appreciate it.

Its an offense/support class based loosely on the Tactician and the Vitalist with a flavor of warlock.

His main draw is his ability to deal damage , debuff and deliver support buffs all in one turn.

For Unchained Rogue, Minor Magic and Major Magic changed to get at-will or scaling number of uses. Toss in Bookish Rogue and a spellbook and you can alter your spell list as you go. And maybe a Familiar to really cement it.

Alternatively, Unchained Rogue (Eldritch Scoundrel) with Forgotten Trick if you just wanna half ass it and be a 6th level caster.

Reposting from last thread since it didn't get answered:

Wondering if any DSP dev is around to answer this:
Is it intentional the max maneuver level known of a 6/9 archetype is limited on the table by their class level rather than by their initiator level in the class?

Like, say you're level 8 in a different class, and you dip into an initiator.
You choose warlord, you enter Warlord 1 at initiator level 5, you can immediately get some 3rd level maneuvers.
If you choose something like Rubato instead, your Rubato initiator level would also be 5, but because
>The maximum level of maneuvers gained through rubato levels is limited by those listed in that table as well
You can still only pick up level 1 stuff, and not even level 2 stuff like a normal level 5 Rubato.

This leads to two things:
-Taking Practiced Initiator for a 6/9 has a lot less impact: for a full initiator it still increased the max maneuver level you knew when you dipped out of it for 4 levels, but for a 6/9 you're always bound by the table according to your class level
-Even weirder, if you enter straight from a level 5 half initiator into an initiator PrC, and take that all the way up to level 15 where you're getting your 8th level maneuvers, the moment you enter back into your main class at level 16 suddenly the max maneuver level you can learn/trade for naturally is capped at 2 again, because you're just level 6 in the original class.

>On the Payroll = add additional 150 gp to starting gp

Do people think this is cute? Make a character that's a big ole thorn in your side, and then think you'll find it endearing when they try to kiss and make up at a meeting in the marketplace?

>>49587246
Some people like it.
Though the line between 'lovable asshole' and 'plain old asshole' is pretty thin and the thief might have fallen on the wrong side of it while trying for the former.

>>49587054

>>49586797
Each individual class other than PRC's (I'll explain in a moment) has its own access and initiator level.

SO. If you're level 8 in a class and dip into an initiator, you are yes warlord 1 with initiator level 5, and can access level 3 maneuvers for warlord. However, your known/readied/stances are 6/4/1, so you get one stance, and a level 3 maneuver needs at least one pre-existing maneuver.

BUT: instead of taking all level 1s, you can take level 1/2/3, hell you can even skip straight to level 2s and not touch level 1s (chances are your stance is a 1 or a 3).

Practiced Initiator (the trait) would instead give you access to level 4 maneuvers (1+4+2) which is plenty of fucking impact. As long as there's at least 3-4 levels of not-initiator taken, practiced initiator will always be a boon.

If you picked Rubato, you'd have less access, due to being on the Partial-Initiator table (the archetype table) instead of the regular growth.

EACH individual class has its limits though. If you were, say, Rubato 10 Warlord 10, each gains its known and readied maneuvers separately.

The thing that made her go from "lovable asshole" to "plain old asshole" was three sessions ago, when she framed my character for the murder of a wealthy and influential (albeit corrupt) government official.

And by framed, I mean *I was in the goddamn room with the fresh corpse when the guards came in.*

She even stabbed me with a STR-draining poison before she finessed her way out of the room. You know how much I hate poisons?

/pfg/, what are the first three schools I should take as an Occultist? I'm intending to replace the rogue as the skillmonkey/trap handler. Right now I'm thinking Transmutation (combat), Abjuration (combat and dispelling), and Necromancy (summoned minions have a lot of utility, particularly the familiars). Divination is on the list, of course, but in all the games I've played it hasn't come up until level 10+, if it ever became relevant at all.

>>49587379
Anon, thats how a rogue tells you she likes you.

>>49587331
Yes.
I get that.

My question isn't about how multiclassing works for a warlord, or with the half initiator levels in general:
It's the fact that it doesn't work at all for a half initiator.

Say you're (Class 4/Rubato 1) with Practiced Initiator (Rubato).
When you enter Rubato at level 5, your rubato initiator level will be 5.

But because your Rubato /class level/ is 1, and the text says that you're limited by your /class level/ as it says on the table, the maximum maneuver level you can learn is /one/, even at initiator level 5.

>>49587379
Yeah, "she got the mark before you" can make for a cute rivalry that builds into something nicer, but that, that right there is a "there is no room under the heavens for both of us to continue existing" bloodfeud right there.

My character wasn't actually there to kill the government official, he was there trying to convince him to change his money-grubbing ways and donate to the local orphanage once in a while.

My character's a Paladin, you see, and he only managed to get out of that sticky situation with liberal applications of Lay on Hands and an official notice from Da Church that my sanctioned-ass couldn't possibly have murdered that man without losing a connection to the divine, which I was very clearly still capable of doing.

I've got the sneaking suspicion the DM wants to hook my guy up with this woman because of the whole "bad girl turning good" arc that might come from it.

Fuck that, if she wants a piece of my beautifully sculpted ass she's gotta change her stabby-stabby ways by following my example.

People survive far worse, and also die from far less, all the time.

Much as we joke that 2d8+12 damage is nonlethal against someone with 28HP, fact is, what actually happened, in-game and in-character, was a lethal attack with a deadly weapon coated in muscle-destroying poison.

You could make that argument at high levels, if they'd fought each-other often. At that point it's more like two martial arts masters who know that skull-crushing hit that would splatter a normal man will barely daze this particular guy.

But at low levels or against a target you don't know the combat capabilities in and out of, that is not at all what the intent was, or if it was, it was unacceptably recklessly applied.

I honestly have never found traps to be interesting encounters unless they are more than your typical tripwire/deadfall/dart thrower thing. For a trap to be interesting, it would have to be something like

>the entire stairway collapses
>the corridor goes on forever in a loop, the PCs have stumbled into some kind of mind trap and left their bodies behind
>All the doors reverse themselves, slamming shut and opening to instantly change the entire dungeon layout
>a monster makes a poor but disturbing attempt to entice the players forward by dancing a bloated corpse on wires in front of them like a sick, twisted marionette

You could just be an Unchained Rogue. No extraneous feats required, nor bad limitations like Slashing/Fencing Grace's. Among 1pp feats I think most prefer Dervish Dance for its ability to work alongside Magus casting. There is also Deadly Agility if 3pp is allowed.

Also it's fucked up that you mention Weapon Specialization as if anyone ever born would recommend it even in a Dex-based Fighter build.

Oh I forgot, there are also two new things that I know of that specifically boost your attack damage if you are using Weapon Finesse WITHOUT any Dex To Damage. They're basically poorfag options but you would hypothetically be saving on feats, and at later levels you might come out even with medium-high Dex-to-damage.

One is Trained Grace, the Fighter feature. A non-Fighter can get it with the Martial Focus feat, but at that point you're just punching yourself in the dick to be able to punch yourself in the dick. The Focused Weapon advanced training is better for damage, really.

WAY better is the Vigilante's Lethal Grace talent. You get Weapon Finesse for free, and then if you're using Weapon Finesse to attack with Dex and keeping your Str on damage, you get half your Vigilante level to damage as a bonus. This one will probably beat a fairly high-Dex build eventually, but still does have to get there over time. Vigilantes are good.

Why are you willingly GMing for 2hu?

Witch gets a hex that allows them to shapeshift into a creature if they have it's skin. I'd rule that a cloak made of crow feathers would count for that.

Also, only for Weapon Mastery feats. Not everything.

Got a quick Path of War question.

Let's say I take a couple of levels in Warlord and then a couple of levels in Myrmidion. How do the multiple sources of martial maneuvers interact with one another? Which Inititation modifier do I use when I fight? Do I have two completely different pools of maneuvers, each with their own way to regain maneuvers per day? Would I just have a l have a lot of low level maneuvers that I know?

>>49588801
Would that be so unbelievable? The normal type of spellcasting works that way.

What's the most brilliant thing you've seen a PC do in any of the games you've been a part of /pfg/?

>>49588801
Different maneuver pools do not interact with each other at all.
You use charisma when using a warlord maneuver, and wisdom as a myrmidon one.
Also pretty sure they don't meet prerequisites for each other.

There are only two places where they interact:
-Your initiator level for Warlord will be (Warlord level + half myrmidon level), and vice versa for myrmidon
-Even in separate maneuver pools, you can never have the same maneuver readied twice.

Looking for 2-3 more players for a module, we have a forum for talking outside of gametime, as well as bullshitting.
Current party members include someone whos looking to play an unbound monk, and an alchemist,

There's a wondrous item that lets you assume the form of a raven or crow or bat.

Sadly, its not permanent and only at minutes increments per day

Best of luck to you though.

Btw you should also clarify whether you allow 3pp stuff.

I could probably convince my GM to allow it, but it's safer to go with 1pp.

They lose their powers if in too much contact with metal. Very many shiny things are made of metal.

>>49589119
They lose their casting if they wear metal armor and metal shields.

That's IT.

Hey everyone, what's your favorite class and why? I've recently started playing and am looking to branch out past the basic fighter.

I think Battle Butler is a theme you can do with several classes. I would say you need the following:

Ability to function in no/light armor and with light, ideally concealable weapons
Good skill ranks, in particular in social skills, ideally with bonuses to some as a class feature.
Good combat ability.

Vigilante is the obvious choice, but I think an unchained rogue with the right talents, a majordomo or mastermind investigator, or even some of the more social swashbuckler/ranger/slayer/unchained monk/brawler archetypes can work well. If you don't mind having slightly more magic, you can probably make do with a bard or inquisitor as well.

Inspired Blade 1 / Witch 5 / Eldritch Knight X

Good? Bad? Meh? Going for "Red Mage" kinda feeling. Complete with cool hat.

In a level one module, I took out two guys with a single bear trap.

One guy walked through the door straight in the bear trap. Apologies are given, 'cause he wasn't the droid we were looking for.

Second guy walks through the door straight into the bear trap. Fucking dies.

I am PC though

>>49589192
Interesting, what would be the best role for an alchemist to fill?

>>49589509
Anvil is the Alchemist's preferred role.
Hammer or Arm can work, but are vastly subpar.

>>49589509
>>49589530
In case you're a pleb and don't know meta tactics or what the Anvil role even is, read this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i5hWkHXHOetRlpLOmxbpoEWod77psN0JcwFvxClNrGc/edit

>>49589551
Thank you, I was just about to ask.

>>49589559
The typical grenade-lobbing Alchemist is a primary Anvil/secondary Hammer.
A vivisectionist or something can function as a primary Hammer, but it's underwhelming compared to the classic.

I just recently learned that Earth exists in the PF universe, Cthulhu lives there, and the Egyptians worshiped gods that possibly originated from Golarion. My mind is steadily getting blown as I delve into the rabbit hole of PF lore.

I like that at least outside of Rasputin Must Die the staff at Paizo have very deliberately kept Earth far, far, far, far, far, impossibly far away from Golarion. "Yeah, it's out there, shit happens on it, might match our history, might not, yeah."

Playing my 8th level UMonk Trickster/Champion with Enduring Armor and Deadly Dodge, my GM doesn't seem to like that my character has 31 AC (sometimes more if I spend MP for example). Next tier I'm going to grab Fleet Warrior and Mythic Weapon Finesse.

Player in my game wants me to roll Spell Focus/Greater Spell Focus and Spell Pen/Greater Spell Pen together (that is, 2 feats rather than 4). They aren't a shithawk munchkin so I'm open to the idea, but I want to stagger the "Greater" sides of the feats so they unlock at a given caster level. Any suggestions what would be good? I'm think CL10 or 12

>>49590453
31 AC for a level 8 isn't that high.

>>49590491
It kinda is when you don't allow magic items. Or at least that's what my GM is complaining.

Any magic items you guys would recommend for an Arcanist? 6th level if that helps any.

Noob q sorry pfg

If a LV2 wizard finds a high level scroll (e.g. Disintegrate) can he add it to his spell book with the appropriate checks? So it just remains in the spell book as a known spell but can't cast for a long time?

>>49591012
If he makes the checks, pretty much.

>>49590837
Do rings of wizardry work for arcanists? They're pretty powerful.

>>49591193
It works for wizards, sorcerers, arcanists, bards, summoners, even skalds and bloodragers.

Anything that's arcane casting.

Ok, so I'm working on my first PoW character for a level 4 campaign and so far I've managed to set the foundations, still something seems to feel off and the build kind of feels like it sucks.

I'm going for a Polymath/Vivisectionist built like a Beastmorph/Vivisectionist. Of all my available maneuvers Puglist stance, Bronze knuckle and Flurry strike seem to be the only worthwhile ones. Are there any better alternatives?

Current lineup:
Stances known: (x2)
Broken Blade: Puglist stance
Primal fury: Running Hunter's stance
Maneuvers known: (x6)
Broken blade: Flurry strike
Broken blade: Shards of Iron
Broken blade: Bronze knuckle
Primal fury: Panthera on the hunt
Primal fury: Primal wrath
Primal fury: Raging hunter pounce

Divine Paragon got me thinking about the divine boons
Which god has the best boons?

>>49591383
>Focusing on Broken Blade and Primal Fury, the two disciplines known for being OP and breaking the game with damage
>Worried about being weak

It's true neither of them give much versatility, but your killing potential is going to be fine.

I want to build a crossbow wizard. Already got Half elf- Ancestral Arms to get a repeating crossbow and then I usually use gravity bow
Anything else to make it more "synergic?"

>>49592364
First you need aspect of the falcon, repeating crossbows are shit, rapid reload on a regular crossbow is already better, but if you can use 3pp get an autoloader magazine (it also helps make adamantine bolts,etc a bit cheaper longterm).

You wizard's going to have a big problem: Crossbows aren't against touch-AC like firearms are, but your BAB is CRAP. This also lowers your potential damage - not just from lost attacks but from lower output from things such as deadly aim. So you need to fix your BAB.

You also need a stat to damage, or what the fuck was the point?

Welcome to crossbowland, population "everyone's playing catch-up desperately to - if they can get enough class abilities and feats - almost hit as hard as if they used a bow"

Pact Wizard?

72KB, 460x700px

Hey, new player here. I'm the DM for a newly formed PF group and I need help.

I bought the beginner box because, while I have the core rule book, I have never DM'd before and none of the people in my group have ever played PnP before at all. The group is mostly comprised of hardcore normies who didn't even know what a Dwarf was. Also, spoilers just in case

The beginner box offers a level 1 encounter for new groups to run called Black Fang's Dungeon. Over the course of the dungeon the players discover that "Black Fang" is a young black dragon using the dungeon as its home. The beginner box GM manual outright states that despite its stats being adjusted for lower level encounters the party will not be able to defeat Black Fang and is recommended I end the encounter before too many players are knocked out or close to dying

So here's my problem: How do I do a Deus Ex Machina without it fucking up the pacing of my game?

I had an idea of adding in a one off DMPC that the groups meets while in the dungeon. He's just a simple, friendly, freshly recruited Dwarven cleric who get trapped while investigating the old runes written on the walls of the dungeon. His background is that he spent most of his youth to middle age as a miner before having a midlife crisis and realising that he's always wanted to go on great adventures. So he joins up with a religious order and is now in Sandpoint investigating rumours of religious relics. I tried to make him as least obnoxious and un-Mary Sue as possible to avoid typical DMPC shit. In fact, I don't even intend for him to be in combat and rather he focuses on tossing around a heal or two for the party. I also fully intend for him not to survive the dungeon. I planned for him sacrifice himself so that he can save the party from Black Fang. Not kill it mind you, just sort of drive it back or distract it when the fight gets too brutal

Is this fine? Any advice is welcome.

>>49592726
No. Expensive material component costs are simply added to the crafting cost after all other adjustments.

>>49592681
Not that the nerf wasn't bullshit, but the magic item creation rules have always been more guidelines than anything else.

>>49592737
There's the demon lords and their obediences stuff, and the witch class (but forget being offensively powerful, they're all about Save-Or and vancianness).

But remember that 5e warlocks have more of a "study" or "apprenticeship" relationship in their pact; you learn magic from the thing and it may not even know you're alive. Those who exchange, say, souls/services instead get their power at full speed, whereas the regular warlock not only STUDIES their way into power (despite CHA; read the fluff) but is then growing no faster than any other class at all. They're learning magic differently, but it's their magic.

Spellburst savants and some other upcoming 3pp works are probably closer to what you want overall.

>>49592750
You already fucked up by picking PF as your first system, sorry.

>>49592737
Forrest (DSP writer) is working on something like that.

>>49592746
Gonna check that out right now. A huge overwhelming amount of classes and stuff so hard to find things.
>>49592774
Yea I know what you mean. My character in 5e plain out sold his soul to his pact in order to gain power. Will check more into this and be on the look out for 3PP.
