If you want build advice make sure to say what 3pp you can use, if any.
>THIS IS IMPORTANT!

Friendly reminder that if you're running gestalt with all 3pp allowed and take apps from like 30-40 players, you'd better set clear boundaries for optimization because /pfg/ can't agree on what's overpowered.

>>50159946
I did forget Primal Warrior, but not only is Primal Fury considered the second problem discipline, it's only +2d6 extra on the rising zenith strike compared to Elemental Nimbus, which still isn't enough to reliably take down a CR6.

Stacking Powerful Build on top of all of that adds another +4d6 which is now barely enough to reliably take down a CR6 on average, and still doesn't scratch CR7.

And again, this is a nova ability for a ZS OD which means they need to waste their next turn to have a chance of doing it again before the battle is over.

Stop pulling fake numbers out of your ass.

I'd say Powerful Build OD ZS is roughly fine but is nearing the edge of what someone could invest into pure damage at level 5 without pfg raising an eyebrow or two.

Nice try exaggerating the numbers because you thought nobody would check.
Next,
>On a hit, they deal 12d6+32 (average 74) damage to two enemies. The average CR 6 monster has 70 hit points and AC 19, so if there are two CR 6 monsters on the field, they stand a very high chance of being instantaneously deleted.

This is exactly what I said here: >>50160004
>Stacking Powerful Build on top of all of that adds another +4d6 which is now barely enough to reliably take down a CR6 on average, and still doesn't scratch CR7.

Your claim it could do the same to CR7 is also complete bullshit.

I just pace around and think about where the character is, where he/she thinks they are. where are they going, where do they want to go. Both in the figurative and literal senses.

I listen to some music. I imagine how my character fights, how they talk, etc. Then it just kind of spills forth and I vomit a character bio out.

Broken Blade: It was meant to allow unarmed users to be competative with standard fighty types.

The issue is that there are no fucking checks for you using it with weapons a standard fighty type use.

Scarlet Throne: Skill check X4 damage Skill Check Negate Attack, Skill Check Negate Save. Really Skill Check maneuvers were a fucking mistake.

Silver Crane: Fast acting, massive out of combat healing for no cost. I literally do not understand why this isn't all temp HP or has a "must be used against an enemy clause".

Piecing Thunder and Tempest Gale: Fucking Worthless.

>>50160350
Being stuck in a game where it's really hard to get above 65% hit rate without sucking your party leader's dick and/or hoping he goes first, and that's with abnormally high STR and a +3 prof weapon.

>>50160346
Every warder is STILL going to be 2handing for the most part anyway. Why shit on people for it? Do you ban great swords too>
>I've literally never seen a warder without it.
I've seen Dervish Defenders, Hawkguards, and Fiendbound Marauders somewhat frequently.

Do you ban Primalist Bloodrager too? Or invulnerable rager?
>>
>>50160367

>Silver Crane: Fast acting, massive out of combat healing for no cost. I literally do not understand why this isn't all temp HP or has a "must be used against an enemy clause".

So 'Slightly more effective than just owning a wand of Infernal Healing/CLW'?

Out of combat healing is kinda unimpressive at the best of times.

The skill check manuvers are also designed to be pretty damn reliable, that's why they are skill checks. They are not supposed to be 'Eh, 50% chance this will work'.
>>
>>50160367
>I literally do not understand why this isn't all temp HP or has a "must be used against an enemy clause".
Because apparently people thought the "bag of rats" strategy was a meme and not something people actually do. I can't think of any Paizo ability that triggers off of killing stuff where you can trigger it off of ANYTHING instead of having to use it on creatures of a specific HD.
>>
>>50160362
ZS is badly designed for only one reason: it's a straight upgrade to the default Warder.
Even though 2handing is a better fighting style overall, it gives up incredibly little for what it gains.

That's why everyone takes it. It's not just "better warder", it's "warder with extra stuff for free".

I've been intending to run a character with both Broken Blade and Fool's Errand for a while now, because they synergize extremely well for an unarmed character.
>>
>>50160374

Yes...and? That's the design decision they made. They aimed for 'Slightly above average on an equal level foe' for accuracy rather than 3.5s 'I basically can't miss past a certain level'.

That's why the fighter gets +wis mod to his opportunity attacks.

Aside from cheesing double and triple attack strikes with 2h weapons, you can get most of broken blade and then some from fool's errand or riven hourglass. I don't really see any design space for BB errata, aside form throwing maneuvers on every level.

Warlords don't use Scarlet Throne as well as an OD/ZS warder. Warlords ain't got shit on a full Wis OD's Zenith Strike.

>>50160421
Because it led to the shitfest that was 4E on release, where picking anything but a.+3 weapon and having anything less than an 18 in your primary stat was a one-way trip to sucktown.

When you're out of rusty dagger shanktown and yet you end up missing for an entire combat because your rolls are 7-9 is fucking shit. That was definitely one of the worst experiences I've ever had playing D&D.

That sounds more of an issue with Ordained Defender and the fact that despite /pfg/ memeing Wisdom is the best stat.

Really a lot of Path of War problems aren't the classes themselves it's the Disciplines and the fact that DSP can barely write shit about fuck to save their life if they aren't cribbing good shit from 3.5

Take Psionics
Almost every bad thing in that book(bar Psychic Reformation, and the fact they chose to bring that back says a lot) is something that DSP came up with themselves. Aegis was a fluke and it isn't even really good. Just dippable if your a full BAB class and don't give a shit about your capstone.

So you'd rather the shitshow that was 3.5 where people found it impossible to miss on anything other than a 1 pretty quickly?

And yes, the game expects you to put a 16+ in your primary stat. It's kinda your primary for a reason. It's not based on rolling stats.

>>50160479

OD/ZS warders are the best users of Scarlet Throne. Period.

Early DSP (Psionics-PoW1 with some bleedover into PoWE and current stuff) reached success because they took good 3.5 subsystems and did an /okay/ job of converting them.

It's more like "40-50% chance of doing nothing when you do the combat thing you specialize in is completely unreasonable if you're not oneshotting enemies like it's X-COM, it should be closer to 20-25%" and that release 4E's fucked defense scaling seriously hurt the game, but since you phrased it as release 4E math or 3E math I'd really rather play the latter because the former was shit and the devs agreed.

Rusty Dagger Shanktown is about being 1 hit by enemies, not low accuracy.

And a fighter is much LESS than 40% miss chance when doing his thing and making opportunity attacks.

He gets +wis mod to that, remember. He's really fucking good at it.
>>
>>50160703
Rusty dagger shanktown is about the lack of control over the game because of the shitty accuracy and the high damage relative to HP. A PC can completely fail at hitting a complete scrub goblin and that same scrub can turn around and oneshot a party member, all completely on luck, and there is jack shit you can do about it unless you're a spellcaster.

The ai is just a hologram in physical form. The only thing I might have it do is possess things or create illusions. Maybe the ai can upgrade to a stand, but for now it's just a conscience.

I was thinking that my actual character knows jack shit about the setting (what is a magic it sounds cool) and that his 21st century knowledge, good intelligence, and ai make him the smartest character in the party.

His good wisdom score comes from having a second conscience, pair of eyes, and pair of ears.

I get a character idea and just roll with it.

Sure, I'll try to make it work, and I'll often pick classes that are known to be strong, but in the end I'm making a gestalt that fits a particular character theme; Steelfist Commando/Slayer for example may not sound too hot until I point out it's being made because I want to be a thuggish assassin with killer fists.

The gestalt should reflect the character just as much as the character reflects the gestalt.

They always do. But having a dozen applications and 4-5 "players" who write even more before you disappear brings far more than what you had to work to write.

A common problem of mythweaver games is they don't actually exist. Someone will put up what they wrote for,say, an RL campaign, or the premise of what's going to show up on fanfiction.net in a few months...

Game is of course set to start not next week, but in maybe 1-2 months.

And people sign up for game, make characters, write some background out - often they'll be all excited because they get told to also flesh out maybe a little village or region that they're from. Which would be great if you actually got to play...

... And then in the few days before the intro session, the GM stops responding. Well, it's not game day yet probably just busy.

And the GM does not show up for game.
Or ever respond again.

And then you notice there's like a dozen such aborted campaigns in a span of just a few short months - all of them marked as "completed" even though they never made it past session 1, if they ever made it there at all.

A year or two from now, you run into some bad link or screencap of shitty fiction, or someone's "original characters", and you realize "wait a fucking minute. I'M the one who wrote this guy" (yes, this has happened to me a few years back)

Since I missed out on the discussion, is Broken Blade OP when used with Unarmed, and not forcing a 2HW?

>>50161287

Not really, it makes unarmed viable alongside greatswords and longspears.

I never understood how someone could think they'd get away with using an unarmed maneuver for an armed character, like what's the deal with that? Are you axe-kicking with an axe?

What happened to HON HON?

>>50161302
Debatable. Even unarmed, it still deals a lot of damage compared to other disciplines. Even if you're only dealing base of 1d3+str instead of 2d6+1.5*str, three attacks at -2 with +3d6 damage as a standard action at level 5 is still very powerful.
>>
>>50161208
While I don't remember the name (not a unique issue; "uh.... you" has been applied to my own children on occasion) I do remember much of the other parts, so here goes:

The character I'd written was a fire-elemental ToB-using Fairy (well, half); her father was human and no one wanted to explain to her how babies were made whenever she'd ask, always averting their eyes and mumbling something imperceptible.

I usually stay away from "tiny" races, but some of the racial options and whatnot we were being allowed made me think I could probably figure out some way of making her some kind of flying inferno divebomber.

She had some Salamander traits, and I wrote up the village/area she came from; not "greatest forge on the continent" but rather an offset floating island who produced *THE* most cheap knockoffs of anything metallic or ceramic anywhere. The greatest pride of craftsmen on the island was making *more* than the next guy.

By the time session 1 was to start, we hadn't heard of the GM in a week; he'd been massively active every day until then, and the last we ever was "oh session will start a few minutes late I have some things" a week afterwards (sometime during when the second session would have been).

Couple of days later the game was marked as "completed" in the activity log; a cursory glance of the GM's profile showing that he'd closed another one down about a week before we started character creation, a pbp one that ended completed and locked after a single intro post, and more and more and more as one looked back on the history.

A few weeks later another game, different GM, same shit (I think gareth was supposed to be in that one), and since then every time I've seen an invite for mythweaver games on /tg/ I've checked the GMs before getting any work done.

I've not yet had to write anything yet as a result.

I still don't get the crossdressing foxboy meme. Why the fuck is your kitsune crossdressing when they could literally just shapeshift into a girl. It's like playing an Eberron changeling as a trap.

So I'm doing a Bloodrager in Shattered Star, specifically Crossblooded. As we just hit 16, I've got a choice to make between two powers. Either I go for what's essentially Form of the Dragon 2, or getting a firey aura that deals 2d6+CON to enemies that end their turn near me as I rage. I've got natural attacks out the wazzoo (claws, tail, hooves, a gore, even a tongue whip and bite if I cast spells), so I'm not so sure how useful FotD would be. But, since we're playing such high level now, I doubt I'll even encounter something that ISN'T resistant to fire.

So what do I do?

Doing 2d6 damage just for standing next to somebody sounds pretty neat, but the fact that it's not until 16, on top of being fire damage, does make it pretty shit, yeah.

>>50161914
Why though? I guess for the sole reason that the aura's crap? I just feel like I wouldn't have anything to gain from FotD on a rage. I already bulk up a size from Abyssal, Draconic's giving me wings and claws, and I've got several other natural attacks to boot. I'd be gaining at best a second use of my breath attack.

Making something that'd be fun, but that I wouldn't normally be able to do. For example, Vigilante is fun, but I have no way of accessing ranger or druid spells. Vigilante || Hunter lets me do that while still retaining some sense of sanity. Is it particularly optimized? No, not at all, I need at least four stats (STR or DEX / CON / WIS / CHA), but it is a cool idea that would be outright impossible in a normal game.

Playing a Samsaran Investigator... should I keep the +2 racial bonus to skills or go with mystic past life? I have 19 int and picking up some wizard spells could be good but i'm not too acquainted with pathfinder is there anything major from wizard i could pick up thats good?

I was thinking if i just take the racial bonus of putting it into stealth and sleight of hand. Although i do want to pick up craft wondrous item so i was thinking spellcraft just because higher bonus means possibly faster crafting

>>
>>50162668
You know what doesn't help is you coming here and bitching everyday
>>
So here are some questions.

What would you consider an interesting encounter? Most people here seem to think that enemies that actually intend on surviving/winning "isn't playing fair", and that enemies should enter encounters expecting to die.

It seems the second I use any kind of tactics against my PCs they fucking crumble.
>>
>>50162644
I'm not surprised, that doesn't stop the fact that it's going to cause more kitsune shitposting when it finally drops.

>>50162663
Blood of the Beast adds a bunch of cool stuff for Vigilantes, namely Transformation Sequence becoming a social talent available to any vigilante with access to a magical ability. What that's defined as is anyone's guess, since leaks never.
>>
>>50162668
Or we could have fun.
>>
>>50162630
Or, you know, we can stop talking about fucking furry shit posting and talk about the fucking game. Hell most of the time people who actually ask about pathfinder get buried under the shitposting. People ask questions or bring up topics and people would rather shitpost about wanting to jack off a cat boy. I mean come on. I don't care what you're into, but this isn't the place for it.
>>
>>50162722
almost everything people ask about gets a response. Fuck off. You're just here to whine and complain.
>>
>>50162747
A goodly amount of the time the replies are just further shitposting that don't attempt to answer the question. Like every time someone mentions building a 1pp only character.

who here /nopullingpunches/. I need to find a party who can take the heat.
>>
>>50162857
Depends on your brand of no-punches-pulled.

I'm fine with going high-optimization in expectation that "the mooks" are officially -1 CR creatures with two purchases of the martial powers feat. No pulling punches is great when it means the players get to go all dynasty-warriors on an army that ACTUALLY goes after them once they prove themselves a threat.

I'm NOT fine with "it's just a single enemy you guys should be able to deal with it. Anyways he casts timestop and then wishes you all dead, so, uh, the campaign's over".

And I've seen both.
>>
>>50162857
Are we talking "tactics required" or are we talking "lol it's low magic and as always that only means for you guys all your rogues will ever face are prepared diviners who knew you were coming".
>>
>>50162840
Well, the -2 strength puts a damper on most two-handed, and sort of to archery. twf and general dex builds would work, if you can get dex to damage.

The Wis bonus tends to promote classes that are divine in nature, so things cleric, druid, inquisitor, hunter.

As far as initiators go, Mystic, Stalker (consider bushi class template for this), Ordained Defender Warder (with either Hawkguard or Dervish Defender)

With Psionics you could pull off any kind of soulknife other than living legend well. Also Vitalists would be well suited.

Undine doesn't really have much that affects class choice beyond stat block. So as long as the class doesn't need str and uses either dex or wisdom, any class would work well.

It's because a lot of the /pfg/ community is jaded men in their late teens to twenties, and they think that acting and dressing like women will fix it. They want to ignore that it won't, because they don't understand how to do that, and there's no amount of training, therapy, or pills that will fix it. The problem is them, not how they look, and that will never change.

The same people are why there's so much shitposting, and why anything related to the IRC or that RotRL/JR game is trash.

Lest esoteric or obtuse methods for raising a PC's base/natural AC?

Building a level 7 Punch-man; current pre-armor AC: 20
> DEX 16 + Dodge + Combat Expertise + Brawler AC Bonus = 19

The plan is to dump most of my starting money into celestial armor for the +9 and call it a day; say it's the armor of my master or clan or something. From there I'll just focusing on damage per-punch and mid-combat options (most of which are pretty covered by martial flexibility).

Now, Steel Breaker Brawler is thematically right in-line with the sort of thing I'm shooting for. However, Exploit Weakness replaces Brawler's Strike. So I've got to opt-in to roll to potentially get +2 attack/damage & ignore all hardness/DR, or gain +1/2 Brawler AC, but in doing so I'm sacrificing counts-as magic vs. DR, which doesn't magic mainly ignore most DR to begin with? Plus I'll gain counts-as cold-iron and silver not 2 levels from where we're starting.

I'm not exactly a seasoned GM so I'm not sure how to handle my next game.

We have a Ranger, Druid and Dragon mage adept from 3.5, and possibly a 4th one who hasn't made his character yet.

Everyone is pretty squishy and I'm kinda afraid of just straight up killing someone by accident, I already nerfed some of the planned encounters so they won't do as much damage
>>
>>50163765
He's not giving other players shit, but his demand that he be allowed to spectate applications demonstrates that he fully intends to use them as pawns in his little game. He's demanding exact specifications about what makes something stupidly OP just so he can find a loophole to make something stupidly OP that doesn't violate the terms the DM has laid out. Likewise during applications he'll likely start harrassing people by posting "if this isn't stupidly OP I don't know what is. I should have been allowed to build X, Y or Z!"

Not much to say, really; the catboy hunk is a Steelfist | Bard hunk from Osirion with quite a passion for his craft, along with a vicious set of claws he learned how to use while working for the Water Lords in Thuvia. The swordsman is a well-mannered gentleman from Magnimar (originally Brevoy) that has set up shop in Sandpoint as a sort of retirement.

I'm tempted to give the swordsman a clockwork arm he tinkers with constantly, and eventually replaces with Mithral.
