They're weak-ass pussies who get dusted by meme spells most of the time, unfortunately. Though I guess technically there's the party member who is slowly turning into a vampire, via modified corruption mechanics. She's pretty strong, but also kind of dense.

So I have a really dumb idea for a game, tell me how shit this is on a scale of 1 to 10

e6 game, allowing for people to drop in and drop out, everyone starts at 6, and i'd be using a whole bunch of horror adventures rules, including sanity/fear/corruptions, which would persist. Ideally characters from all alignments could apply

Run games maybe bi-weekly and make a lottery or something for everyone who wants to play. I dunno.

Idea is for every game played to be a oneshot mission, you're all working for a super secret wizard society or something that keeps the horrifying monstrosities that go bump in the night from fucking everything over.

Not sure about the details yet, i have a lot to hammer out, but its 1 am, and the idea hit me

Is /pfg/'s Hell's Vengeance game going to be ruined by autistic pedantry in the rules thread?
>>
How do extended defenses and other similar abilities work? For example:

>Lucifer goes 4th in initiative order, and attacks the Warder
>The Warder uses Invulnerable Shell of the Iron Tortoise, triggering extended defenses on it
>The Warder goes 6th in initiative order

Is the Warder invulnerable until he next takes his turn, until the start of Lucifer's next turn, or until the start of the next combat round regardless of turn order?
>>
>>50494335
Until the warder goes next in the initiative order, so 6th.
>>
>>50493662
Alchemy's what you want.

Also good for making all that [STUFFED ANIMALS]

And yeah, unarmed is an area Vigilantes can do good. Fist of the Avenger gets them a flat damage boost with fist or gauntlet attacks.

You can get Lethal Grace as well for another flat damage boost. The requirement for that is that you be using dexterity to hit and strength for damage, but it's half your level in extra, non-stat-dependant damage and gives you weapon finesse at the same time, so it's a good deal.

He really doesn't. He's trying to twink out spheres to get an insanely broken blast type.

Force damage is basically the best damage type, and having a no SR force blast is broken

He should just refluff stone blast or something to be 'pure concussive energy' and keep the bludgeoning damage and nobody would bat an eye.

2hu is doing his best to rules lawyer in an optimization edge. Surely you can see that.

I'm aware, GMs are often trying to be nice.

Honestly this is what really bothers me about 2hu, he should absolutely know what he's trying to do is broken, and he's attempting to pull one over on the GM for his optimization fantasy. Its pretty fucked.

Undead are never a serious threat in my stories because they're so overdone by everyone that they're pointless memes.

Good necromancers who try and use undead for good things are the worst trope ever, right up there with sparklepires and fuckwolfs, because there are no werewolves anymore, just werewolves that fuck, hence, fuckwolves.

Horseshit, PoW is always better at killing 1 or 2 big monsters at a time, all day.

i didn't claim all day wasn't a meme

I just said that Spheres is destroying entire encounters while PoW murders one big guy.
>>
>>50494457
There is literally no reason to play a druid other than human if you're gonna main wildshapes exactly for that reason.

Also, as a note, Wildshapes are amazing starting at level 5 until level 9, then allow you to keep up until level 11, and by then mostly become utlity. Caster Druids are pretty much the opposite, shit until they get their 5th level spells, then they can keep up with their full caster counterparts.

requires 3 blast talents and three times the spell points and its notable that unholy smite is an advanced blast talent and therefore 100% subject to DM discression

>>50494879
Which one, the player?
My bad, two of them.
They're the autistic ones?
>>
>>50494831
I would say yes, if only because Wildshape only becomes weak due to the lack of progression.

You're also trading out the versatility of elementals for the sake of becoming a giant, which, honestly, doesn't open up a lot of options for you besides "I'm gonna fuck shit up"

If you look at the Druid spell list, they basically have few spells that grant them the ability to swim, burron, climb, and in particular fly, all problems easily fixed with the regular wildshape. In particular, turning into a Huge Air Elemental gives you Perfect flight with 100 base speed, nothing to scoff at. You're killing the versatility of wildshape for a melee bonus on a class with slightly inferior spellcasting. Considering you can also turn into Huge animals without that archetype , it becomes even more lackluster when you can't transform into certain animals with better attack patterns for the ability of throwing a really big, nonmagical rock. Consider the fact also that you CAN'T use Enlarge person while wildshaped, and yeah, there's not much of a point. I guess the one advantage this archetype has is that it allows you to keep wielding weapons while wildshape as a Giant.
>>
Honestly profane/sacred damage shouldn't exist
>>
>>50494897
I only agree with you on the grounds that superfluous damage types don't need to exist. But since Pathfinder already uses a large amount of different types of damage, adding two more doesn't really hurt anyone.
>>
>>50494897
Rather, the problem with them is that positive/negative should already be what theyare, and neither case should have a damage bonus like it does built-in.
>>
>>50494934
I mean they would be way less insane if they didn't also do 1.5 against a huge host of monsters that are routinely encountered in play
>>
>>50494945
Exactly yes I agree with you there, the built in damage bonus is a huge mistake
>>
>>50494896
> I guess the one advantage this archetype has is that it allows you to keep wielding weapons while wildshape as a Giant.
Also, armor, Regeneration and no "Natural Spell" feat tax.
>>
>>50494982
All good points, but you'll probably only trade the Natural Spell feat for one that makes you better at combat, and as for armor, I always take the +3 enchant thingy anyway.

It's up to personal choice, I guess. Regular druid gets more versatility out of their forms and 8+ attacks depending on it, while you get to keep your magic items as a giant.

Nice advice, bruv
>>
>>50495071
>Selective Channeling
Good as a 1st feat. Take it now if you don't have it yet.

After that - you know, with that Str and Dex you can take long spear and Combat Reflexes at level 6. So your first round wouldn't be just wasted on buffing.

Also, Bless is a 5% chance to convert "miss" into "hit" for PC that made an attack that round. It's not big of a deal anyway.
>>
>No CHA
>Selective Channel

That's not Justice

>>50495167
But Bless boosts all the attacking PCs, which is all of them, since even the witch throws bolts and cackles after her initial debuffs. Buffing everyone is nice.

https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/59608/the-wrath-of-the-righteous

Exhibit B: GM of Wrath of the Righteous saying he made the Hellknight Trabant
https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/49799835/#49801635

Exhibit C: GM of new Hell's Vengeance allowing Hellknight Trabant PrC
https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/4300556/

Exhibit D: Hellknight Trabant PrC creator having a Ruby Rose themed avatar and username, also having abandoned an old Hell's Vengeance game
http://www.myth-weavers.com/showthread.php?t=351657

Exhibit E: New Hell's Vengeance GM on Roll20 having an RWBY avatar and a fresh account, maybe to flee an old identity on Roll20
https://app.roll20.net/users/1878647/argentum

You have been warned. History will repeat itself and the GM WILL abandon Hell's Vengeance!

Or maybe, here's just a thought? He's just new on Roll20 and wanted to try it out? RWBY is pretty popularish among weeb types anyway. That's like saying someone with a fucking DBZ avatar is the same person.

Even if it is the same person that doesn't guarantee they'll abandon the game. Have you NEVER had plans for a game fall through? How about you give them the benefit of the doubt rather than try to start a witchhunt on /pfg/.

Real quick rules question.

If I cast a spell that makes me immune to bleed damage, then cast a spell that inflicts bleed to myself as a cost,is the spell basically free, or does it not go off?
>>

>>50496634

The shitposting is obnoxious, but don't pretend that it was somehow worse than how the thread always is.
>>
>>50496751
No..? You cast the bleed spell with whatever costly components are needed, and it fails because your immune.

Why the hell are you asking this?

I dont think you understand what im saying. The bleed effect to myself is only PART of another spell. give me a sec, ill give you the examples I mean.

stanch - 1st level wiz/sorc spell.
You are immune to bleed effects. If you are currently bleeding, stop bleed effect.

and pic attached.
>>
>>50496822
Honestly not sure, it doesn't say you need to bleed or if the spell fails if your immune to bleed or not, GG to whoever wrote that one.

I'd say it's up to your gm in the end but honestly I'd say if your immune to bleed it'd still work, at least till your immunity ends.

>>50496780
See >>50496797
I tried really fucking hard, but I am not hardcore enough of a degenerate to wrap my head around why the fuck a literal shapeshifter, with access to solutions which could easily change their "true sex" (or whatever the term is now) after a short bit of adventuring, would EVER do that shit. There was almost no in-universe reason to play it straight, and no non-fetishy way whatsoever to play it straight. The best I could figure was a "fox tries to integrate into society disguised as a child, but they were raised 'wrong'. Nobody ever bothered to correct it." background, but it just didn't work well enough to jump off from.
>>
>>50496818
Been trying to avoid most of it in order to keep an open mind once applications officially open (and to avoid influencing people's character creation choices). A lot of the character interactions that people have been throwing around are really cute though, and it's been making my job harder.

I know I'm avoiding the question but it's legitimately hard to choose
>>
>>50496893
>Something to degenerate even for /pfg/
My god it finally happened
>>
>>50496893
It's not about being one sex or another. Its about being a trickster. Its about tricking men into thinking your a girl only to spring that trap on them.

This is why you're a cross dressing kitsune.

The shota part can fuck right the hell off though.
>>
>>50496901
Could you at least give people an idea of your tastes? What you're looking for would/want in a party?
>>
>>50496734
When, exactly, is it? It doesn't say what time it starts
>>
>>50496893
There are a few ways to go about playing a trap, an actual trap, you can play a chaotic creature that loves to lie and hates people, you can play a conman who's handy with any kind of disguise, or you can play a degenerate weab who hopes senpai doesn't hate him when he reveals to be a faggot pretending to be a girl.

That's up in the air ATM depending on how many eurofags I get, as it stands it's likely to be on the weekend as I only get like a month off in between jobs.
>>
>>50496976
Ideally I'd want a balance of different types of characters, both in mechanics and characterization. Someone before posted different "teams" like Team CUTE, Team JUSTICE, LEWD, SERIOUS, and ADVENTURE. I'd want one from each. Then also match skill-sets for a well-rounded party (but gestalt, so that should be easy) and from there figure out which characters seem to mesh the best together.

Or just run Rise of the Kaijitsu.
>>
>>50497025
Also, im guessing voice isn't required or anything like that, right?
>>
>>50497072
People are autistic AF in /pfg/ so few people like to use voice
>>
>>50496962
>>50497007
See, the challenge was playing the kitsune meme straight. "Just be a trickster" is, in and of itself, an entirely different matter, because that lends itself to reasonable concepts. It also falls under "you are a shapeshifter, dumbass".

>Injection Spear
This exotic two-handed weapon allows the user to inject targets with liquid on a successful hit. The spear’s reservoir can hold up to 5 doses of a single fluid—a single dose is automatically injected when the spear deals damage. A non-proficient user can wield an injection spear as a standard spear but cannot trigger the injection. An injection spear is otherwise identical to a normal spear, save that it weighs 8 pounds, cannot be thrown or used to brace, and costs 60 gp.

Is it good or is it shit, /pfg/?

Trolls have the giant subtype, and half-giants, while not as long living as elves, still age slowly. I'd say use something in between, maybe the Ifrit's.
>>
>>50497709
Make it fragile and you're set.

>>50497709
It could be okay if you could get the exotic proficiency for free from somewhere and actually have good liquids to use (I suggest magma, nitrogen, or that bubbly brownish liquid that eats clean through your Gravity+Varia suit combination in lower Norfair and Tourian)

Like, it could be of use to an alchemist or someone that can make good use of poisons, but it's gonna be forgettable shit if the best you can do is dump a vial of holy water in the thing.

Rather, I've armed most of the party's mook followers with swords to that effect (with a small selection of vials); it doesn't do much and they'll never keep up with the party, but if they need to defend themselves it at least ensures they A) CAN cause a bit more damage so against equal mook forces they'll have a dangerous upper-hand, and B) you can't simply say "well since it was immune to their weapons they're all dead" when they go do something and run into opposition. They've been given one dose each of each of the regen negators (fire,acid,holy,alkaline,silversheen, the blade's cold-iron) short of adamantium.

But the partymember with a +6 adamant weapon has no need for those things and would be wasting his actions even if installing it's a swift.

Leaving home at 16, call it a year's trip by boat and caravan taking a longer, but safer, route to Numeria; 17. Four years there looking for his parents, 21. Three years fighting back through the badlands and the Hold, that's 24.

Being a Pathfinder is part of your character's backstory.

The exception is, every PFS players' characters are members of the Pathfinder Society.

>>50498298
Shattered Star lets you be part of the Pathfinder Society, I think? I mean, you at least work with them. If your GM doesn't retcon the pathfinders to not be a shitty organization, he's doing something wrong though.

Would you play the following: URogue+Barbarian Hybrid Class, with a bit of Oracle mixed in. Based (almost) entirely around 1pp mechanics, so no initiating, spheres, or psionics, mind you.

HV-Anon, you made a great emphasis on Appearance being a thing in the campaign, but can you tell us how it will be used in a typical session?

Evidence that this is not true

Exhibit A: Radically different chargen rules, WotR GM had rules against dumping and pumping stats. Dropping this would be odd, as well as the PB changes

Exhibit B: Radically different feat-tax rules, specifically HV GM seems to be aware of a much better feat tax ruleset than WotR GM ever had

Exhibit C: Completely different layout of the campaign homepage for applicants, its very strange for someone to change that

But hey, here's the most damning one to your bullshit

Exhibit D: Writing

Now as much as people may try, their writing style is one of the most identifiable things out there

And since I applied to both games, I've read enough of both of their writing and how they phrase things... They quite simply can't be the same person. They just aren't.

10 (11) Humans - Khair, Omza, Anja, Casimir, Corwin, Ricktor, Amalthea, Agatha, Viviana, Caelum, technically Aranha.
4 Aasimar - Lilin, Nixia, Kanela, Zeldana.
2 Tieflings - Onryou, Maxima
2 Skinwalkers - Silvia, Svana.
2 Half-elves - Togeko, Karathi.

So last session my shifter (spheres) turned himself large, gave himself wings, and shifted into his themed wolf form (big flying wolf, essentially) and gave a ride to the entire party to board an enemy airship.

Spheres is pretty good.

Not kitsune but here, have the description of my blinkling shota trap maid. The sheet is nearly done and will hit R20 in few days.

>Most people looking at Shiro for the first time see a soft-spoken, fair-skinned and slender little lady. Shiro's dog ears and similary canine bushy tail mixed with a traditional maid uniform, nicely tied hair and well-mannered disposition only add to the charm and make the inevitable reveal all the more shocking. For Shiro is, in fact, a man, and he will politely inform of such anyone mistakenly taking him for a girl. It really is a shame and great injustice that eyes so golden and bright must belong to a man but such is life. Most of Sandpoint's inhabitants learned long ago about the Kajitsu household's peculiar manservant and got accustomed to it, anyway. What most people don't know is that Shiro can manifest a golden psionic aura around his person and congeal it into a panoply of variously sized flying blades of the same color. He can then propel the blades with his will. Curiously, they make a clear, almost-melodic sound while cutting through the air. He does this only in need and when it arises his person transfroms from a simple, diminutive servant into a supremely focused and graceful combatant. Other times he is perfectly content with using his powers as a crutch for his height or for manifesting only brooms and other utensils.

The reason why PoW gets mentioned more often is because, a lot of the time, players want to play warrior types in fantasy settings. My entire circle of friends likes martials over mages - some like the big strong guy archetype, some like having good personal protection, and two of us (including myself) are weapons nerds that feel more comfortable describing our characters in a good set of gear than robes.

there's also the fact that a lot of people simply don't see the need for a new magic system. As shitty as the martial/caster disparity is, PoW closes that gap already, and allows martials to do some things that mages simply cannot (such as the build I whipped up that can solo linnorms come level 15). Very few people actually want to nerf casters - far more want to buff martials up to a point where they can contribute.

>>50499368
Agreed, larger chests are better suited for tight-fitting sweaters and other coverings that ironically only emphasize their size despite being very concealing.

I think there are some very valid arguments over a lack of balance in PoW. I think these arguments often get ignored and drowned out by people trying to shift the arguments into safer territory (such as shouting "but full casters can do X").

I put it around where six level casters are. The spot around Tier 4 and 3.

PoW characters however do not give a good indication to their usefulness when used in the tier system because the majority of their utility is combat oriented.

Buffing, Debuffing, Damage, Mobility, etc. Initiators are fantastic at all of these. Plus because of their design their defensive suite is far superior to essentially every other character, due to counters (replacing saves, invalidating attacks, etc.). A PoW character when optimized to any degree warps play around them in combat, yet contributes next to nothing new out of combat.

My players are going to have a chance to make a deal with a powerful witch in the next session and I'm trying to figure out what she might ask for in return for her help. I was thinking she'd ask "for one day, sun rise to sun set, your blood, sweat, and tears" of the party's sorcerer. Translated out of cryptic bullshit that means that at some point down the road the witch could "borrow" some of his magic power and eat through a bunch of his spell slots or make it hard for him to cast for a day or something. A sorcerer's blood is his magic, after all, and his sweat and tears represents his effort to learn it.

But I feel like I could do a better fae-bargain between the witch and the sorcerer. Do you guys have any suggestions?

>>50499601
That makes more sense, but I still wouldn't play that sort of game unless it was 3pp, including archetypes. So you can go Sphere [Paizo Class], or [Paizo Class] [PoW Archetype], but not just the Paizo class on its own.

I'll totally respect your design decision over the chance of rolling (which admittedly favors large busts), however I do need to add tight-fitting robes like the ones Song Lilin are wearing in her artwork (especially with that binding on her abdomen) can make even a chesty girl look almost completely flat.

>>50499659
For greater investment than any martial character would ever have to do, yes.

A sphere talent is the equivalent of a feat, anon. To get a good blast going, you have to invest half a dozen feats. That's not a good blaster.

This is one major thing about Spheres of Power in general; You can have flexibility if you want it, but if you invest EVERYTHING into one sphere, you will be very good at it. It's fucking stupid to do that, though, because you will have none of the strengths of a real caster and all of the weaknesses.

>>50499683
Hi, that's a bit discouraging. I won't say PoW is bad, but compared to SoP it's really hard to fuck up a PoW character, and that damage is a bit too easy.

But yeah, Spheres is a tad bit weaker even compared to Paizo, so it might be a bad comparison.
>>
>>50499728
That's my point anon. It's a character decision, that even if Lilin has breasts like a pair of melons she'd actively try to get them toned down. A guard uniform isn't very titillating, and if you add a chest binding in there wouldn't be much showing.

That's more a problem with how boss fights are set up.

Spherecasters can do more than fight, and they're pretty good at fighting too if you build them for it. PoW-users are very good at fighting since there's very rarely a "bad" choice regarding maneuvers, but struggle against crowds, other initiators, some spellcasters, and superior utility. Yes, some of them can fly or see invisible things, but even the most powerful of PoW characters can't un-poison some wine or even spontaneously-create water.

Well... yes. That's why they chose to be a martial, and you chose to be a caster.

This is the point I am making. A pure blaster spheres of power character is not a full caster in the real sense; they have access to absolutely no spells at all but blasts. None. It's like kineticist with more damage and less utility.

So why did you pick Incanter instead of a class that's meant to be a blaster AND have utility, like Elementalist, Thaumaturge, or even Hedgewitch?

And what about his personality? His sname is also a placeholder, mostly.

>Shiro is quiet, diligent and subservient - as befitting of a servant. He doesn't ask many questions and, in fact, rarely speaks unless directly asked. Generally he takes great care not to be a bother and even mastered the art of not drawing attention to himself unless he is needed. He is also very observant and surprisingly sharp when he does speak his mind. Under the calm and collected facade he hides a genuinely kind, caring heart and a steely resolve. He's very protective of people he sees as his masters and always seeks to make them happy in his own unobtrusive way. Woe to those who would wish to endanger them for Shiro won't hesitate in bringing such villains low.

I'm not complaining. Just... legit, just scroll up and read the rest of the chain? You really have no idea what is going on at all and it's kind of annoying.

People are calling Spheres casters too good at blasting, and I'm making a point that that is fine, because they have to invest everything they are into blasting to do so. They have NO utility AT ALL if they go full blaster, which makes them worse than a martial at the job.
>>
>>50500034
And you don't NEED to invest 30 talents into Destruction. Why would you even think of doing that? It's a waste of being an Incanter, which has so many talents to have variety. The Elementalist, which gets 15, is more than enough to cover what you want as well as have actual class features that matter.

If you don't invest your early level talents into Destruction, you'll never catch up to a proper damage dealer.

Here's a comparison of why it should just be Str/Con/Cha

rather than Str or Dex/ Con/Cha

Rinka under the current system is given a appearance score of 12.66, despite being a sickly weak little stick

under a system where Str is the stat of appearance and Dex is a stat of reflexes and movement, Rinka ends up with an appearance of 8.33, which makes WAY more sense.

Why not just use both?

The original intention for the formula, (STR+DEX+CON+CHA)/4, was to showcase that on first-contact with someone, their physical traits and first impressions of their speech and talking were what mattered most in being considered "attractive". You could be svelte and have a swimmer's build (high STR, DEX, and CON), but you sound like an asshole even with the first word from your mouth (low CHA). Or you might be barrel-chested with a bit of problems on your feet, but a good heart (Good STR/CON/CHA, bad DEX). Or maybe you're extremely-intelligent and thoughtful, but nobody gives you a chance because you're always sick and tired-looking (Low everything, but good INT and WIS). THAT was the intention of the original formula that I made, and it saddens me that people don't understand that.

I mean, I might play it if it fits my schedule. Any more details, rule-wise?

But Rinka should be the opposite. At best she's a tomoko.

"Charisma measures a character's personality, personal magnetism, ability to lead, and appearance."

Out of a sense of solidarity because my post upthread was mostly ignored, I'll give you a (you). I'd be down for an undead campaign in theory, but I don't really have time to play another campaign. You're also not giving us a lot to work with in terms of what to expect story-wise beyond "You'll all be undead!" I dig undead, but I'm curious what these undead PCs would be doing. Is it necessarily an evil campaign, or could the players go in a different direction with things?

Doesn't mention posture. If you want to go off this then it should just be charisma, which we're obviously not doing.

She's small, but actually has some hidden under that blazer (Seo to her left has pretty big ones when not drawn all chibi like that). Chiyo's not 'as a board' like several other characters can be...

but presumably because skills like perform (Dance) are cha based, some amount of it is movement related.
>>
>>50500835
That's more of a consequence of Perform being a Charisma skill that makes no distinction between comedy, singing, playing an instrument, telling an epic and dancing.
>>
>>50500835
Because all perform skills are cha based. That's a weakness in the perform skill.

Bossfights are specifically a PoW character's greatest specialty under most possible builds they could do or be. That's part of where the "problem" lies (also seen with kineticists and gunslingers... that should give you a clue as to the real problem here).

Most AP and the like's "boss fights" are "normal mook but wearing full plate so he's hard to hit that means it's a big long fight". A PoW character either has ways to compensate accuracy-wise and can put enough weight behind a single hit to really punish that, OR, you're using Vs-Touch effects that make the whole boss nothing but a mook again.

PoW's mainly balanced around the action economy; When they're dealing with half a dozen 'lieutenants' instead of one 'big boss' is usually when they're at their worst.

Whether they can handle a horde of minions depends on the particular character though; some will be slaughtered by that, while others that weren't all that good compared to the rest on a 'boss round' could literally wipe the map clean in two turns maximum, no matter how many CR-5 troops there are coming at him.

I don't disagree.
Barbarians as well.

Hell if your "boss" is just some idiot in full plate that does a single vital strike a round; well isn't that what made them scream that crane-wing was broken?

There is literally both a Spheres AND a Path archetype for every one of those classes.
