For someone who's only played D&D and Dark Heresy, how's Pathfinder compare?

Any groups looking for new players?
>>
>>51158399
Most of the big, climactic battles my group's characters go on are either covert missions from whatever kingdom they work for or personal battles with people that aren't exactly widely known, even if they are big threats.

The fact that so few of us play bards also probably has something to do with that...

There are a few games that are very close to closing applications.

https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/65144/of-dragons-and-yet-more-dragons

If you've played 3.5, Pathfinder is like that with some of the clutter reduced. If 3.5 is your comfy messy room, Pathfinder is when you've got company coming so you shove all your stuff in the closet.
>>
You are presented with the following situations, how do you react?

>your GM tells you that the arrangement of several birds in a tree, cracks in the wall and an old man sitting form a perfect representation of the golden ratio. You are suddenly overcome with powerful nausea and need to make a will save. On a successful save you take 1 wisdom damage.

>At night while looking at the stars you are suddenly overcome with the realization of how cold and distant they are. A terrible dread overcomes you. You need to make a will save, on a successful save you take 1 wisdom damage.

>while bathing you begin hearing a distant scream. You realize that no matter what direction you face the screaming is always behind you.

>while alone in a room you hear a tapping from the mirror, there are smudges in the shape on a picture of stick figure at the height a child would draw

>the ogre midsetence begin babbling in tongues and vomits a pile of papers, shredded but covered in words. Reading them you realize they are from your own diary several days from now.

So if anybody here uses Hero Lab, I've got a first pass of the Medic and Spellburst Savant put together. They still have some bugs I haven't fixed yet, though, so I'd appreciate any help with HL wizardry:

>>51158505
No. When you gain spellcasting as a class feature you get two talents, which can be spent on a sphere or on things within that sphere.
>>
>>51158505
What do you mean?

Opening a sphere costs one talent and gets you the base abilities.

You get two bonus talents when you first get Casting.

Take a tortilla, and spread the beans on it. Then spread a little cheese, then the veggies or meat, then the tortilla chips, your other veggies or meat if you have it, then spread some cheese. Then take your other tortilla, spread the refried beans on it, and slap it on top.

Then throw that shit in the microwave for 30-45 seconds

Take out and enjoy your ghetto quesadilla, maybe cut it in slices if you want

>>51158716
It's a two-handed weapon, and therefore gains 1.5x bonus to damage regardless of its handedness. This doesn't mean a large character can use two-weapon fighting with medium greatswords to get 1.5x damage on damage rolls with both weapons, since the rules state in this case they are treated as one handed weapons.

This is the key difference between Pikeman's Training and Phalanx Lancer Stance, because Pikeman's training treats it as a one-handed weapon, while Phalanx Lancer Stance has no such wording. This rule also applies to wielding a lance on horseback, because you are wielding it in one hand, but not treating it as a one-handed weapon.

This is a common misconception that makes people think piercing thunder is way shittier than it actually is. Really it's quite strong.
>>
>>51159066
>put it in a pan?
You don't, you just put that shit together on a paper towel or plate, put it in the microwave, then take it out. No pans or grilling involved, all microwaved, since you are just using shredded cheese.

Its just like putting a sandwich together, except its a floppy tortilla instead of bread
>>
>>51159066
>>51159111
whoops, misread what you meant.

The appeal of the microwave quesadilla is that its fact, you don't need to bother with the stove, and its just quick and easy finger food, so you can take it out of the microwave and take it immediately to your computer so you can eat while posting on 4chan
>>
>>51159111
Right, but I'm saying is it really worth the minute you save if you're ending up with a microwaved tortilla instead of something more evenly heated?
>>
>>51159153
generally, i find unless you have a complete shit microwave, the 45 seconds in the nuker heats it evenly enough

Gotta ask, is losing Challenge really worth it?
>>
>>51159330
You don't lose challenge, you just lose the order specific benefit of your challenge. So Order of the Dragon Cavalier doesn't give a bonus on attack rolls to his allies.
>>
>>51159355
Seems like this homebrew is a little...let's say "lopsided". Adding a mount-specific thing while allowing for the removal of a mount--how would that work if you've taken an archetype that replaces the mount?
>>
>>51159330
You don't lose All of your challenge, you still have your extra damage, from the challenge itself, you just lose the adjustment to Challenge your Order provides.

>>51159221
Well, its doesn't quite "require" Mount by RAW, its just a few of its abilities will just not work without it. You still get the Initiating though
>>
>>51159379
S'kinda poor design m8
>>
>>51159379
So would Mounted Maneuver Expertise then work with just any horse or other mount you get your hands on?
>>
>>51159374
>how would that work if you've taken an archetype that replaces the mount?
The mount based ability just wouldn't activate unless you get a mount from a different source. You still get essentially all the other things though

Considering most of the archetypes that remove Mount aren't that great and tend to be combat based, I'd say still getting the initiating is still a gain.
>>
>>51159410
It's still shit design. Dont give dead abilities.
>>
>>51159405
>So would Mounted Maneuver Expertise then work with just any horse or other mount you get your hands on?
That does not seem to be the intention, but I'd allow it.

So I was asking my DM about how he's handling drinking rules (since eventually I'll dip in Drunken Brute or Drunken Rager) and he gave me a choice between these two.

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/afflictions/drugs/alcohol

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/extras/community-creations/murk-s-lab/drinking-rules

The first rules he's stated I'll immediately get sickened if I go over that cap, and the second rules I won't get a Dex benefit from "Stage 1".

So which do I go with? I mean originally I was just going to drink to mitigate having so few rounds of rage, but now I can get much more from it...

If you think this is stupid, please tell me so right now, and please give me any other ideas you have for it.

PLease keep in mind I designed the template to be an on-interferance as I could so it could be compatible with many archetypes such as the Luring Cavalier and Beast Rider. If this was a dumb decision as well, please tell me that too.

>Starfinder Livestream
A bit late to the party, but here's some details about what went down:
>Armor is divided into Kinetic AC and Energy AC
>Higher base damage numbers overall, but you also have a buffer called "Stamina" that acts like a shield for your real hit points
>Can take brief (about 10 minute) breaks to recover stamina
>Goblins are now basically vorcha; interstellar pests
>Magic is homogenized so there's no arcane/divine/occult divide, and none of the core classes get above 6th level spells (9th level are available, just not to core classes)
>Mechanic can overcharge gear and get a neat action economy tradeoff with their drone - either they take actions themselves, or they sacrifice actions so that the drone can take more than one action per turn. All Spellcasting is also spontaneous.
>Will include gravity rules, including 0G
>High tech armor and weapons are assumed to be the norm
>More Skill condensing, like what happened in the shift ffrom 3.5 to Pathfinder
>More Scaling, fewer set DCs
>Apparently there's Tyranids
>The Han will be an insectoid player race
>SPACE LICHES
>Basic Economy is Credits and UPB (Universal Polymer Base), one is standard and has no weight, being electronic, while the other is hard currency and can be used to craft things. Their prices are equivalent; 1 Cred = 1 UPB
>Crafting is Skill based, no feats required
>Option to upgrade old gear into new equipment if for some reason you're attached to a particular item
>Magic and enchanting is still a thing - nothing but cost stops you from having a +1 holy plasma cannon
>Antagonists include 'nids, pirates, corporations, evil religions, and more
>Alignment is still a thing
>Power armor and small mechs (like 40k Terminator armor) are core. Gundams to come later.
>Spaceships are assumed to be available to everybody. they don't work on the standard currency system.
>Space squids can grapple ships.
>Hellknights are still around.
>Archetypes apply to all classes

That's everything.

Every archetype applies to every class that meets a requirement. Sort of like feats, but applying to a class as a whole - one might have no requirements, one might require you to be a magic user, stuff like that.

>>51161669
So like Bushi and Polymath, or something completely different?
>>
>>51161682
Class Templates are a good comparison, sure. But this is like if bushi applied to fighter, barbarian, warlord, warder, monk, ranger, paladin, and more. Only requirement would be to be a melee-oriented class.

>>51161667
You can probably afford to be vague about it--whether or not you're taking the Younger Sibling campaign trait for her, the trait's language gives you leeway to fit yourself into her timeline as long as you don't name dates, and failing that, you could just be adopted (by her, if not her parents).
>>
>>51161705
That... feels like either the classes play very similarly to each other (so it's easy to replace things), or there's a LOT less classes and archetypes to deal with.
>>
>>51161717
From what I saw during the livestream, it's the latter. Being fair here, the playtest characters were a Technomancer, a Mechanic, and a Solarion, so they were all rather different from each other from the outset. I don't know how different an Operative or Soldier will be from one another.

Earlier, someone put forth a challenge to create the most powerful possible 5th-level initiator. Last time it was posted, there was confusion over how it worked, so I have revisited it.

It is important to note that DPR is not the goal. Alpha striking is. Kill all important enemies in the first two rounds of combat with Victorious Recovery, then mop up.

Level: 5th
Race: Dreige (Lords of the Mist update) or half-giant (Ultimate Psionics)
Classes: Warder (ordained defender, zweihander sentinel) 4/stalker (brutal slayer) 1
Domain/Inquisition: Conversion (use Wisdom in place of Charisma for Bluff, Diplomacy, and Intimidate)
Martial Tradition: Stained Glass Champions

Ability Scores (25 point buy): Strength 17+2+1+2, Dexterity 12-2, Constitution 12, Intelligence 12, Wisdom 16+2+2, Charisma 7

Traits:
• Combat: Practiced Initiator (stalker), +2 initiator level for stalker
• Race: Fey-Touched (Lords of the Mist), +2 trait bonus against compulsions and diseases, feyblood subtype
• Third Trait: Some method of gaining a +2 trait bonus to initiative checks, possibly through a campaign trait or Adopted
• Drawback: One of choice

Feats:
• 1st-level: Altered Life (Bloodforge), use Wisdom modifier (+5) instead of Constitution modifier (+1) for hit points
• 3rd-level: Martial Charge, use a martial strike in place of a charge
• 5th-level: Victorious Recovery, once per encounter, recover initiator modifier (+5) upon reducing an opponent to zero or less hit points
• 5th-level (Stalker Art: Combat Art): Improved Initiative, +4 bonus to initiative checks

Custom Monk Weapon:
• +5 DP: Martial
• +3 DP: Two-Handed
• +3 DP: Additional Design Points
• +1 DP: Fragile (irrelevant once made masterwork)
• -3 DP: Improved Critical Threat Range
• -5 DP: Improved Damage
• -1 DP: Weapon Feature (Monk)
• -3 DP: Weapon Feature (Reach)
Final Result: Martial two-handed melee weapon, 50 gp, 2d6 damage as Medium, 19-20/×2, fragile (irrelevant once masterwork), monk, reach
>>
>>51161791

Key Equipment:
• 4,000 gp: +2 Strength from belt or Combating Christmas Trees
• 4,000 gp: +2 Wisdom from headband or Combating Christmas Trees
• 2,000 gp: Masterwork full plate with masterwork armor spikes
• 400 gp: Masterwork Large-sized custom monk weapon

Warder Stances:
• Primal Fury 1: Running Hunter's Stance
• Silver Crane 1: Eyes of the Crane

Warder Maneuvers Readied:
• Golden Lion 1: Boost: Encouraging Roar
• Silver Crane 1: Strike: Enduring Crane Strike
• Golden Lion 2: Counter: Warning Roar
• Scarlet Throne 2: Strike: Rising Zenith Strike

Stalker Maneuvers Readied:
• Broken Blade 2: Bronze Knuckle
• Broken Blade 3: Strike: Steel Flurry Strike
• Riven Hourglass 3: Boost: Time Skitter
• Shattered Mirror 3: Boost: Reflected Blade Style

Stalker Stance:
• Primal Fury 3: Primal Warrior Stance

Combat:
• Initiative Bonus: +11 = 5 Wisdom modifier + 2 trait + 4 Improved Initiative
• Attack Bonus with Martial Charge (Steel Flurry Strike) and Time Skitter: 4 BAB + 6 Strength modifier + 1 masterwork enhancement + 1 Time Skitter + 2 charging - 2 Steel Flurry Strike = +12, possibly against flat-footed AC
• Non-Critical Damage with Primal Warrior Stance and Steel Flurry Strike: 6d6 base weapon damage + 9 Strength modifier + 3d6 Steel Flurry Strike + 2 Broken Blade = 9d6+11 (average 42.5), and please remember that Steel Flurry Strike is three attacks

This character walks around with Time Skitter active nearly all the time, thanks to being able to recharge it as a standard action: https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/43652765/#43653434

In other words, the character is permanently Hasted and has 40-foot speed in heavy armor.

The character opens up combat with a very high initiative check, then charges 80 feet with Martial Charge, activating Steel Flurry Strike and Reflected Blade Style, probably targeting flat-footed AC.
>>
>>51161797

Assuming there are no critical hits (which trigger Brutal Strikes) and no damage reduction for Reflected Blade Style + Steel Flurry Strike...
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hYrnghrSe7kMOko-aNiS0HTVlSJnUBkvHD2dmg0omGY/edit#gid=1753461638
• One hit (42.5 damage): Enough damage to take down two CR 4s
• Two hits (85 damage): Two CR 7s
• Three hits (127.5 damage): Two CR 10s are most likely dead

Alternatively, instead of using Reflected Blade Style, the character can use Bronze Knuckle for +7 average damage with each hit.

Once again, assuming there are no critical hits (which trigger Brutal Strikes) and no damage reduction for Bronze Knuckle + Steel Flurry Strike...
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hYrnghrSe7kMOko-aNiS0HTVlSJnUBkvHD2dmg0omGY/edit#gid=1753461638
• One hit (49.5 damage): Still enough to take down one CR 4, possibly a CR 5 with some luck
• Two hits (99 damage): One CR 8 dead
• Three hits (148.5 damage): One CR 11 dead

Then Victorious Recovery recharges essentially all maneuvers. The character repeats the routine and hopefully kills off other important enemies.

This a 5th-level character. Their other highlights include:
• Wisdom for hit points in place of Constitution.
• Wisdom for all Bluff, Diplomacy, and Intimidate checks.
• Detect Evil and twice-rolled Perception from Eyes of the Crane.
• Scent from Running Hunter's stance.
• At-will noncombat healing from Enduring Crane Strike.
• Hasted most of the time, with Rising Zenith Strike as a backup enemy-exploder.

Should Weapon Master's Handbook custom weapons be banned, the character will have to settle for less damage with a sansetsukon.

Are there any questions or concerns regarding how this build works?

How much less?

I also don't think your maneuver selections are valid. When you multiclass initiators together you don't get to skip prerequisites if you have it on the previous class, but have to build up the 'tree' from scratch. You've got six maneuvers from the first level of Stalker, all at Initiator Level 5 because of how you combined 4 levels of another class + Practiced Initiator. You need to take two Bronze Blade maneuvers (which you did), two Riven Hourglass maneuvers (one shown, one assumed), two Shattered Mirror maneuvers (one shown, one assumed) and a Primal Fury strike to meet the prerequisite for Primal Warrior Stance. You don't have enough maneuvers to do so.

Without multiclassing (and in particular, without the IL boost from Practiced Initiator) you won't be able to accrue this many third-level strikes at level 5 either; the trick falls off from this point forward as well due to the way the trait works. You can do something similar-ish to do this with Advanced Study but not as quickly, and it starts eating feat slots fast.

6d6 base damage goes down to 4d8 base damage, for 3 less damage on a hit.

>When you multiclass initiators together you don't get to skip prerequisites if you have it on the previous class, but have to build up the 'tree' from scratch.
I can find no such passage in the systems and use chapter: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/path-of-war/systems-and-use

Is there a certain passage I am missing concerning building up prerequisites from scratch?

>the trick falls off from this point forward as well due to the way the trait works
On the contrary, the character simply returns to taking warder levels. They are only 1 initiator level behind, and they have still gained an incredible deal from their one-level dip into stalker (brutal slayer).

Initiation is like Spellcasting, basically. You have two initiating classes and they both have separate initiating ability tracks, similar to how if you multiclass Wizard / Sorcerer, both of the spell lists and spells-per-day are kept separate.

This is not quite the case, because:
>Multiclassing does not allow an initiator to have any individual stance or maneuver known or readied more than once.

If you multiclass as an initiator, your new class still pays attention to the maneuvers your first class knows and readies.

I can find no passage whatsoever denying a multiclassed initiator the ability to qualify for prerequisites using their original class's maneuvers. Again, is there a rule I am missing?

You should totally do it, anon! What's your current character? You'd be posting at the 11th hour sure, but that just means you need to decide if you want to make her by tonight!

>Gets indignant when all the characters are girls, traps or poorly designed men
It's not hard to make a good, sexy male character for an ERP game. Just throw together an adonis or a good natured less rapey Rance, and you're done. I'd do it myself if I wasn't already applying as one of the girls.

Currently we've got arrogant super thief, trap healslut, generic kitsune, cute blacksmith doggo, frail ill investigator sheep, dickass noble, BraveHorse (TM), and Literal Furry.

Out of those, your choices for hunklord are Literal Furry and dickass noble, neither of which quite fit the theme of cheerful cutsey fox-ears only game.

Bitches do indeed love the monster dick, but are you expecting the characters currently posted to just raise their rumps and get plowed? I don't think so.

Monster dick is better for a campaign like Kingmaker or Reign of Winter, not "Kitsune courts and cute cuddles on a huge-ass fox."

That may be true, actually. The game is remarkably bright, saccharine and cutesy which fits girls and boys but men... I am not saying it can't be done, especially if you go the shounen/harem MC route but it is not something that comes to mind first.

As someone that applied I'm not sure I agree. Sure some of the characters are more cutesy and feminine but that just means all the more girls for them to inject their masculinity into. I don't think it's meant to be cheerful and bright so much as city-building, exploration, and fey-hijinks

>Rosencranzt getting mauled by a lion
You can't say that Rozencranz getting mauled by a lion wouldn't have made Hamlet at least 15 times better. Hamlet could have demonstrated his bravery there, or pondered whether to let Rozencranz die in a freak lion attack and tip further towards the end justifying the mean.

Fey are supposed to be mercurial, mostly cheerful but their cheer can take a dark turn eating your insides while cheerfully singing a tune

Not saying that this isn't a bright game but Fey can be difficult to read when it comes to such things.

I recommend the web story "The Gods are Bastards" for some interesting takes and displays on fey style behavior. Or I could spoil it with examples.
>>
>>51159487
Bump.

My main concern is that the first rules would let my character have 5 drinks (a day? hour? fuck if I know) before being sickened for at least an hour, while the other would let me have 2 drinks before I'd have to start making checks, granted it seems pretty beneficial to fail the check at first. Then again once I'm in "Stage 1" inebriation I'd probably be afraid to keep drinking for rage rounds, which defeats the whole purpose of going Drunken Brute or Rager to begin with (drinking for free rounds).

That is a very well done build. You are a much better buildmaker than me.

I was wondering, if for the sake of winning arugments, you could make another similar build but with some different constraints and a diffferent ultimate objective?

Goal: pounce with the most damage possible.
Constraints:
no attribute below 8. No custom armor/weapons, one of the PHB races, 20PB, normal WBL and no retraining.

Do you think you could? Do you need any clarification?

The goal is to have a somewhat simple build that shows the full offense capability that PoW is capable of, while also showing it's defense and being immune to criticisms like "lol +2 will" and similar things.

It's probably better to error on the side of just raw numbers, as while the situational powers you have in the build you showed are very impressive, they are not as good at just saying "look at this you fool and see how BIG IT IS!". Humans are dumb.

Let's break this down.
First off, no sane GM would allow a custom weapon like that, especially with the Broken Blade potential.
The failure of the custom weapon rules is on Paizo.

Second, Broken Blade being nerfed soon is very public knowledge and this build's numbers will be obsolete when the errata comes.

The entire basis of your damage comes from two flawed concepts that either most GMs will reject, or will soon be archaic.

Third, you have nothing to counter difficult terrain, which you can't charge through. It generally has very little it can do to get around any obstacle that stops it from being able to charge, even if targets would be in range. This may include weaker enemies in the way of your alpha strike. Admittedly Reflected Blade Style is a good range extender here but is far from a fix-all.

>Wisdom for all Bluff, Diplomacy, and Intimidate checks.
At five skill points per level. You can be a good face, but a skillmonkey you are not.
Assuming you also want maxed perception for Eyes of the Crane and Sense Motive for Rising Zenith Strike, you have zero other skill points to spend, apart from maybe FCBs.

>Should Weapon Master's Handbook custom weapons be banned, the character will have to settle for less damage with a sansetsukon.

This should be assumed to be the default rather than the exception.

Fly exists, and yes no build is perfect, especially at level 5. The pouncing barbarian can't do shit if he starts the combat in a fog cloud.

If you think that making a lot of skills work off one stat and having 5 skillpoints per level doesn't make you a skillmonkey, I wonder if anything short of an empiricist is a skillmonkey to you.

But yea, he went a bit crazy with the custom weapon. But still: the potental is there, and even without the custom weapon that build is stupidly strong for LEVEL FUCKING 5.

Diplo/Bluff/Intimidate all fill very similar roles. A character can generally get by with only two of them, maybe even only one.

Sense Motive is to be expected of any WIS character, and Perception is a no-brainer for ANYTHING.

>But still: the potental is there, and even without the custom weapon that build is stupidly strong for LEVEL FUCKING 5.
Surprise: you're playing pathfinder.
The potential is /always/ there to pour all your resources into one task and be super good at it. No game of pathfinder functions without a gentleman's agreement to not break it over the knee.

It is a very strong build. But that's all: it doesn't make a point about path of war as a whole, and it's being presented as if it is.

There are several disciplines with issues. Namely Broken Blade, Primal Fury, Scarlet Throne, and Black Seraph.

It's easily more than +1, so I'm going to assume you're being facetious. The fact that it takes until 13th to get heavy armor, and medium is only at 7th, means that you have shit for AC until then or until spending spells/pool for it, which hurts your output over the course of the day. The 2h PA scimitar might be a bit better damage to help shore it up, but it doesn't change the fact that dex just clicks easier, earlier, and works with far more race options. It allows you to get more other stats like con or int, while also keeping up your attacks and defenses.

Either way Magus is woefully narrow in build options. ISG+scimitar+Hexcrafter+blackblade is cool, but goddamn do I wish that I could do something different.

I think it was less proving point and more answering requests coming from discussion about how PoW is too strong at early levels.

>>51167301
There's probably like 3 "major" builds, each with a few sub-build options.

>str-melee with intensified shocking grasp + scimitar + power attack
>dex-melee with intensified shocking grasp + scimitar + dervish dance
>Eldritch archer with intensified snowball + archery

Sub options would be things like going the SF(evo)+Spell Perfection(shocking grasp/snowball) to frontload nova damage, taking hexcrafter for better per-day longevity, blackblade or kensai for melee flavor (though kensai really is a dex only thing imo)

Memebuilds are the ones like Spellslinger 1/Eldritch archer 19 for guns, the frostbite+rime+enforcer+cruel weapon meme.

That's the thing anon. It's so basic that it's something I still have yet to actually /play/. I've never gotten to use a concept that basic because I'm a filthy Dex/Int-builder.

>>51167307

were the two builds, because they actually play differently. Dex vs. Str doesn't actually change how you play the character, it just sorta changes how the numbers work.

Everything else is a meme build.

>>51167507
I'd actually disagree on the str and dex playing similarly. Str needs a few defensive buffs to match the early level survivability of dex. The frostbite thing is a memebuild because it requires the enemy to be:
1. not resistant to cold
2. not immune to non-lethal
3. not immune to mind affecting
Which heavily limits the creatures it can be used on.

>>51167525
Probably the white hair hex to use a second hand.
>>
>>51162988
>>51162842
It isn't. A weapon or armor must be masterwork to be enchanted, but the MW cost isn't included in the enchantment price.
>>
>>51167601
>1. not resistant to cold
>2. not immune to non-lethal
>3. not immune to mind affecting
Last time I went into the Monster Manual there wasn't much that actually had all of these immunities. The things that did tended to be the type that you could just bladed dash full attack down anyways.

well, technically it's just rapid reload (and alch. cartridges if early firearm) that lets you reload as a free action. The main thing is that you need a free hand to reload a pistol, but dual wielding means your hands are full. Thus, a hexcrafter takes Prehensile Hair, which allows him to have a third hand for the purposes of reloading. Then you just pass one gun to the hair (free action), reload both guns with your newly-free hand (free action, free action), pass the gun back (free action), and keep shooting, without interrupting your full attack.

The constant demand of "cute! cute!" is why it's starting to just sound like a demand with no substance beyond "give me cute anime girls!". Though I suppose I do have at least ONE animal ear "bishie" in my folder that could pass for a Str-based build. No facial hair, but such is life.

The thing is, if it has either cold res or the non-lethal res, your debuff output is severely limited, if not completely walled. This is also not considering that it might just be better to kill the thing outright, rather than debuff it into the ground. I guess the frostbite build is efficient with spell slots since it is charge based, but it requires a lot of feats, and has the aforementioned issues. ISG still has some of these issues, but it's only walled by elec res.
>>
>>51167672
Why would high Str require muscle mass? It's animu game, slim people can be as strong as they need to be.

>>51167769
I guess "memebuild" is a little subjective. frostbite /can/ work, but it just doesn't work as early or easier than just going SG. Similar comparison to the str or dex thing, but I wouldn't call that a memebuild, yet I would call the frostbite one.
>>
>>51167814
That is an anime game. Anime has 12 year-olds lifting tons with no muscle mass involved, and that's jsut from training. Muscles are just for show and certain character archetypes.
>>
>>51167814

But anon, muscles are aggressive and a clear sign you're trying to overcompensate! Everyone knows the hottest men are tall and slender with plaid button-ups and huge beards.
