Pathfinder General /pfg/

Is there more than one setting? If so, how do you recognise the one you are playing assuming the GM doesn't tell you?

>>51791516
I liked the one in the link repository, way back.

>>51791516
Neat. That character looks almost exactly like what my current character is supposed to look like - she's a Tiefling Bard with a focus on Perform (Dance).

>>51791516
>Believe it or not, Paizo still isn't offering something for that. Why are they afraid to?

Players would adapt something from Races of Dragon unless Paizo was adding a lot more new stuff.

>Not a single actual dragon.

This IS a shit thread.

>>51791571
The only official Pathfinder setting is Golarion. Some simple tests to determine what setting you're in include: thea surplus of wizards who could solve the problem without even trying (Faerun), the existence of robots with souls (Eberron), everyone talking with a Cockney accent (Planescape), etc.

Like, you are doing exactly what you are accusing him of, only worse, because you are actually spamming and shitposting. If that person was posting more pictures and trying to enforce "cueposting" or whatever in the thread itself then ok, but it's not like that.

>Taldor GM hasn't responded in several days

Is it a dead game?

Alright, I gotta ask, as someone who constantly sees /pfg/ in the general but has never played and knows nothing about it, why the fuck is it full of anime girls with animal parts? I need to know.

>>51793160
This thread got shitposted by someone butthurted. Anime girls in the OP are just that, anime girls in the OP, usually pertaining to the thread starting question. It's cute and better than some grim tryhard Dark Souls or MTG picture.

>>51793160

Because PF players play to be the little furry girl.

>>51793160
Because faggots make a new thread when we're at page 5 so they can make the OP be fucking full of weebshit.

>>51793224
Faggots like this guy.

>>51793370
This thread was made on page 8, as were others before it. We did not have page 5 generals for some time but I guess you just want to be offended.

>>51793160
There's nothing weeaboo or even particularly furry about Pathfinder, relative to D&D. What you're seeing here is pure community waste, not the game.

>>51793160
Blame Bloodforge: Infusions.

>>51793160
Because it's much cuter than the actually furrified beastman races that are in PF supplements.

Enough about DHB's optimization, let's look at his backstory. How does he compare to other applicants in that regard? Let's take a look at it.

Backstory: Operative Monday's past is one shrouded in mystery, in no small part to his own effort. What he knows of his own past is what he has read in a dossier, as the majority of his memories prior to entering the Lion Blades have been removed, at his request, using Sequester Thoughts. Part of him suspects that the dossier is a fabrication, used to inundate himself with a false past behind a wall of blank memory. The dossier tells of a wealthy merchant's son sent to Kitharodian Academy for his education. Mother deceased during his teenage years with two younger sisters and a senile father now living out his old age comfortably in a sea side southern Taldoran town. Operative Monday has met both of these women who claim to be his younger sisters, and suspects they belong to another cell of the Lion Blades. Their names are Hannah and Sareen Vedger, and they run his claimed family's textile business together. He has not met his father, but puts this up more to being married to his work than to some sort of conspiracy among the upper echelon. While in Kitharodian Academy Operative Monday apparently grew bored of life there and instead turned to an ever increasingly interesting life of crime, mostly consisting of gambling, smuggling, and high profile theft. This was when he first caught the attention of The Lion Blades as someone of possible recruitment. In the dossier it describes him being captured and offered a deal, entering a shadow school rather than a prison cell. This was part that Operative Monday believes wholeheartedly, as it is in line with his personality.

>>51796374
During harsh training endured while at the Shadow Schools Operative Monday was shown to have an great talent for both espionage and unarmed combat. A report among the dossier describes that after eight months at the shadow school Operative Monday accomplished what is known as The Vow of Self, using one's force of personality and might as a form of self empowerment, this lead to many of his current powers. As well this lead to his ability to exchange luck between individuals as the ebb and flow of fortune. These and more skills were detailed in reports by instructors at the Shadow Schools.

After graduating is when Operative Monday's current memories begin. Both an exploitable past and the locations, structure, and organization of the shadow schools he trained at are protected by his obscured memories. This was at the age of 26. During the next 11 years Operative Monday served the nation of Taldor faithfully, traveling abroad for long periods of time to hunt enemies of the state, often infiltrating foreign political structure for these missions. Entering a noble family's service as a scribe or manservant was not an uncommon tactic. It was not unheard of that he would travel with another Lion's Blade, but more often than not he would go alone. During this time he became close to several other Lion Blades. The plucky Megaar Dreer, Operative Half-jack, a halfling man adept at both forgery and information control and Adriana Vess, Operative Little Miss, the woman who claimed to have been his instructor while in the shadow schools.

>>51796396
Five years ago Operative Monday was trusted with founding his own Shadow School in Oppara, now known as The Lion's Den. It trained Lion Blades in a similar manner to how Operative Monday performed his missions, long term infiltration and observation of foreign targets, teaching young Lion Blades how to deal with being away from their homeland, often in hostile territory. Operative Monday now both taught and went on mission, often on a six month cycle. His current mission is one in a series. For this mission he had taken on the identity of Morgan Alsdraut.

Personality: Operative Monday has a rather strange personality at this point, deeply suspicious and overall disillusioned. Despite this embittered mindset he is powerfully patriotic towards Taldor, and the more he sees of the world the more he grows to love his homeland. However he keeps his country and countryman at arms length, as one can not rely on them while gone from the country. One's own body, mind, and personality are what one must strengthen until that of iron to survive the demands of being a Lion Blade's commander, especially with the weight of running his own Shadow School on his shoulders. Operative Monday compensates for this mainly with pleasures of the flesh, gambling, women, drink. He considers this as his major weakness. The empowerment and strengthening of the flesh coupled with his own weakness for it represents for him a constant struggle.

I can not describe in words the amount of hope that you might take your own life. It might seem pretty and overreacting, and it is. I wholly acknowledge that. My day was not even that bad, all things considering, so it is not merely venting either.

Merely the way you have acted has somehow triggered a cascade of hate and loathing, directed towards you. This thread filled with vomit and abandoned to die for a reason, you scraped back to life on the edge of its death. And for what reason? What possible reason could you have had for that? Do you always, upon meeting a wild puddle of vomit, scoop it up and bring it home to play with and to share with your family?

Because that is what you have done.

But I am not cruel. I hope you use a gun, so you don't have time for regrets or panic after you do the deed. No one deserves that. Not even you.

I'm fantastic with voice, always ready with an opinion or descriptive piece, but then I start text, and... I mean, I'm good with details and actions in Play-by-Post for example, but I just can't *do* conversation. I can do actual talking just fine, but text? Blegh.

>>51797041
Weird, I'm practically the reverse myself.

>>51797041
I'm kind of the opposite myself. I'm great at character voices and conversations in text, but I've got a really soft voice IRL and it's really easy for people to talk over me (and it's even worse when I'm trying to respond in-character).

I'm kind of jealous, because that means you can play offline and online.

I can do voices when I play locally, and I can do text when I play online, but when I do voices online it all goes to hell.

>>51797720
Is there some secret with gestalt Vigilante? I see it really often.

>>51797776
You're a fool if you think that your character needs to be a spellcaster for your builds to be considered cheese.

>>51797802

For me, it's the inflection and tone. I don't need body language when I can just describe what the body in my mind's eye is doing before slipping back into the voice.

God, I need to join another Voiced campaign, I'm only in one right now and I'm having so much fun.

>>51797818
A spell caster can much more thoroughly destroy a campaign than his character does. His character is still firmly tier 4.

>>51797849
Eh, he's at tier 3 at this point. He's got enough skills available that he has out of combat options.

>>51797881
He has a really narrow set of things he can do, he's really good at what he does do, but it's still narrow.

Most min-maxers are more interested in the theory than they are in actual effectiveness. God help you if you meet someone who's seriously building to win and good at it.

>>51797992
Diversifying means stepping on other player's too. Being a jack of all trades is shit in a party because you never shine in your specialization. Even then this character can do quite a lot. He isn't a spell caster, but he covers pretty much all face/stealthy stuff.

>>51797992
>Why not refocus some of the character options into diversifying?
This character is pretty fucking diverse. Did you not read it?

>>51797978
Forrest (and Gareth too, and probably every other dev) has said many times that gestalt playtest data is very skewed and is taken with a large spoonful of salt, if taken at all.

However, I've run some basic numbers on single-class self pact avowed and I think the damage it dishes out can be a bit too out of hand: at level 8 with overcharge modulation, every single round you can reliably destroy an average CR8 creature from full health, and you will also have pounce to move up to 60ft before doing it each turn.

Usually to get good data you need to separate the gains from the gestaltening. Now, in some cases that's very easy: some Gestalts have very little to do with oneanother.

On the other hand, if your gestalt is massively improving your stats, replacing your BAB/saves, and directly enhancing the abilities you use in your main (like Initiator/Aegis combo, as a simple straightforward example), then the mileage of the thing to be tested is massively altered.

It can be good to know just what can happen when it's optimized in a gestalt, but at most that's just to help lock down some of the more questionable wording for multiclass interactions.

Guy's entire life before old age was suffering.

Do any full casters have a fast reflex save?

>>51798165
>needing saves, when you can have 100% concealment as an instant.

>>51798153

No it wasn't, his life before old age was one I think many of us are living now.

In case nobody here knows what Ezren's backstory is, let me give a quick recap.

Ezren is the son of a merchant who was wealthy enough that Ezren could live a life free of work - and that's exactly what Ezren did. He played at life, never amounting to anything but the lazy son of a successful businessman. He was smart, sure, but never applied it, and as the years went on he sunk further and further into the comfy NEET life.

And then dad died.

>>51798147
Theoretically, it's for smooshing concepts together to cover all your bases in a low-number party.
Generally, it's used for absurd power wank, or making sure the guy that wants to play a kineticist or CW samurai without 3rd party can keep up with everyone that doesn't want to play something innately terrible.

>>51798190
Oh, I know that. But is it popular outside of /pfg/?

>>51797967
All good ideas, except for
>Save-or-teleport people to a holding cell
Save or lose is bad design. Always.
If you can only do it to helpless or uncoscious enemies instead, you still have to defeat your enemies first, with the added poblem of having to go non-lethal. Or you have to be very sneaky.
It also brings the flavor close to pokeballs, since you have to defeat a pokemon otherwise they just escape the pokeball.

Maybe a save or be stuck in the cell for a round. Eliminates an enemy for a round so the party can focus on someone else, but it's not insta KO.

like most of the rest of pathfinder, it's generally a matter of group or of particular case. people who play PFS will hiss, spit, pull spaghetti out of their pockets and screech incoherently for 3.47 minutes upon hearing the term. meanwhile some table groups will have rules like "core monk and rogue are combined into one class; use the better of the two whenever there's a clash" without even knowing they're gestalting them. And then there's groups - generally online rather than table due to the increased math involved at higher level play - who will say "fuck this go nuts"

Temporary stays also sound like a great idea. Heck, grapple + drag into a cell sounds reasonable as well.

Would this be funnier if she's flat, or very chesty? Because I can see situations where either works in a scenario.

>>51798494
Flat.

My RotRL character wants to turn Thistletop into a sanctuary for the rabbits the goblins used as dog food when the party is finished clearing it.

Would that be a terrible idea?

>>51798494

Chesty if tomboy or reverse trap caster.

Flat if reverse trap martial.

I am a huge fucking autistic pussy who can't talk to other people. I've been wanting to get into DnD for a long time, but being scared to talk to another human has kinda put that on hold. Anyways, whjile researching DnD I found out about pathfinder and saw that for $10 more than the DnD starter edition, I can get the starter edition for Pathfinder and get way more stuff (like a map, and character figures). Anyways I have 2 questions I want to ask, am I able to do solo play? Is it fun?

No you can't play by yourself. But just play in text game or play by post if you can't speak to people without spilling your spaghetti.

>>51798619
I hope the edgy trap waifu makes it in.

>>51798546
Never mind, spent the $2, it's kinda mediocre with a lot of stretching to make it fit the idea of a dungeon based class.

You don't have to buy anything in all honesty.

>>51798478
You can pull off some pretty weird shit, but it also depends on how the DM intends to handle it. Going by the assumption that he understands the implications behind it, you could certainly use the boots to fly, or be carried by away by the fast but weak party member.

Increasing your weight too high would probably cause more problems than it could solve, since you run the risk of destroying your body with a simple misstep. What also matters is what is defined as your body. Does it also lighten any carried gear? If so, then you could use it to theoretically carry near unlimited amounts of weight. Of course, the problem wouldn't be carrying it in this case, but lifting it to the point where you could feasibly be determined as to having it on your person.

Realistically though, the boots sound like a fantastic get out of jail free card for swimming, climbing, and falling. Outside of that, there's not much practical use behind it.

>>51798477
>hutling
I am laughing for real right now

Though Avowed would work pretty well for a terrible idea I had a while back for a race, sort of tsukomogami/transformers that could swap back and forth between progressively larger and more impressive magic items/vehicles and humanoid forms. I know absolutely nothing of Kancollie but it was part of the visual inspiration
Fluff abilities as being a merger of the two states (You punch harder because you're also a magic motorcycle moving really fast, you shrug off a fireball to the face because you're also made of metal plating, etc.)
There's not a lot of stand-and-take-it defensive clauses that I'm seeing, though.

>3-4 - Crippled. Either become Blind (Head), -4 to two handed attacks (arm), can't Run (leg), or can't fly (wings)
>5-15 - Nothing special, normal rules apply
>16-18 - Scarred. +4 to Intimidate. Normal rules otherwise
>19 - Superficial wound. Auto-stabilize with 0 hp
>20 - Deceptive wound. HP set to 1, can make a bluff check to fake death with +10 circumstance

Thoughts?

>>51798802
The Inquisition page, and especially the FAQ related to Ultimate Magic.
>Inquisitions are like domains. Other classes that use domains can take inquisitions but inquisitions are typically weaker than the domains those classes can already choose because they don’t grant domain spell slots or domain spells.

If it doesn't work it doesn't work, but I personally can't see any reason it shouldn't.

>>51798826
That's a whole 10% chance to essentially negate the risks of being reduced to negatives, and a 20% chance for it to be way worse than normal.

Everything has the same falling speed. He will never need to lift that weight.

Sounds like it could be a fair trade in the right scenario
>pic related

>>51798808
I'd assume that as long as I don't exceed my push/drag weight in extra bodyweight I should be fine.

As far as some ideas I've had... I'm playing an unchained monk, so my flying kick range should be drastically increased by this item. I also have a racial climb speed, I imagine being able to fling yourself from craig to craig without fear of falling would speed that right the fuck up. Having these boots will mean that the various ki powers that have to do with standing on shit that shouldn't support you are irrelevant and thus I can get other ki powers.

>>51798849
I believe it's either a free or a swift action. I doubt my GM will allow me to directly alter my damage die with it, at least on normal attacks, though he did say that if I were to find an intelligent weapon that was willing to cooperate and attached the boots to it somehow, it'd be able to use them to similar effect. Another idea I had was to employ drop bear tactics and just cannonball someone from the ceiling, though that might hurt me too.

>>51798858
I've still got 4 specialization points to toss around. Probably on the Trickery domain and the divination (tactician) specialization.

>>51798922
And this is why Incanter dips are cheesy.

>>51798911
Your flying kick range is solely determined by your fast movement speed, an unfortunate but hardcoded limitation of the ability, so that one is pretty much entirely DM fiat. You are correct though that ANY surface will be able to support your weight. It doesn't matter if you can't fly when you can just balance on a twig at the end of a really long branch, or run on water, or jump off of falling leaves.

>Another idea I had was to employ drop bear tactics and just cannonball someone from the ceiling, though that might hurt me too.
Newton's second law states that force equals mass times acceleration, and force is a two-way street. So whatever damage you inflict is going to be inflicted on you as well.

>>51798888
With the ERP premise you'd think all of the girls would be fapbait like they are in some similar games, but almost all of them are actually pretty good and wouldn't raise any eyes in a regular game except maybe for their pictures. I guess it's out of fashion but I don't think there was more than maybe one rape backstory. I kind of got a hard on for Leila despite the sparsity because the pantheon is basically the only decent part of the Golarion setting though.

The male characters are way worse, I wouldn't be surprised if the DM took all girls and girls (male) for reasons completely unrelated to fapbait. I don't know if a single one of them was likable.

Are you saying that because you actually read the male character's apps? Or just because you skimmed them and only paid attention to the ones who blatantly didn't read the CharGen rules?

Or maybe you're just trying to make sure yours gets in while downplaying all the others.

>>51799074
That was only my impression, if you like some of them I'd rather hear why you do than myself talk about why I dislike them though.

There're like, four or five aloof big weapon guys with a tortured past (discluding Conan) now that Berserk is more topical than Naruto. I don't think more than one even worked his tragedy in with the player guide. The only other boy to my memory was a paladin who's a paladin.

>>51799137
What about Blur?

Assuming a Caster Level of 20 and Spheres of Power, what is the best combination of Alteration Traits for making a Caster be able to temporarily do some melee? So no feats like power attack, just Alteration traits. Potentially losing some players soon and DM isn't sure how fast they'll find replacements. Want to have something just in case. (CL20 is from various boosts, with her level being 11, so no CL15 talents.)

I was thinking Size Change for that massive boost to strength, Tentacle Transformation for a number of grappling tentacles, and then Undead Traits for 1d8 Blood drain. (1d2+1 die size per 5CL | 1d2->1d4->1d6->1d8->2d6, right?)

>>51799149
>worked his tragedy in with the player guide
Firstly, I don't think that's true. At best, everything in your post is a gross oversimplification.

And second--what, nobody's allowed to write a character backstory without it revolving around a single trait? You could say the same thing about most of the female characters. Your arbitrary limit seems to be more out of pettiness and a knee-jerk reaction of "has a big sword, must be a weeaboo REEEEEE"

>>51799142
I already played Wrath so I didn't apply, but I'll admit that I only skimmed to see what people were talking about. Isn't it a pretty bad sign if half the guys blatantly didn't read the CharGen rules in the first place though but most of the girls did?

>At a close look, adds lots of smaller fun details in his character sheet and other links--he can't remember his birthday, he accidentally got married, etc.

Amadeus
>One of the only dudes who seems to be making the Paladin side of his gestalt a big thing without buying into the DEUS VULT meme
>Plays being a Shelynite to the hilt and I'm a mark for that, so take my recommendation with a grain of salt

Lucius/Irina
>Growing up in mom's shadow actually puts his trap-ness in an interesting context, if kind of a fucked up one
>Has a bit more depth than "I'm so pretty and fey", and actually uses vigilante identity for something other than just avoiding embarrassment, psychologically speaking

Seth
>Okay, I don't actually like him, but...
>The fish-out-of-water idea is actually pretty neat, and the idea of a Thassilonian coming to realize that there's a better way to live, that he actually likes living in a world of compassion and good people, has potential

>>51799282
Lets be honest, we all want to fuck Lucius in his back-pussy and take turns using him as a throat-slave. That alone will likely get him accepted into the game.

Seconding. Who needs girls, how many slots can be filled with traps?

How can I get INT to AC while armored?

>>51799342
How do you get INT to AC while unarmored?

>>51799345
Magus gets int to AC when unarmored if I remember correctly

>>51799345
I don't know, but someone might tell me how when it's not something I'm interested in.

>>51799149
Do you think DHB posted his character's personality to directly contrast these guys?

>>51799345
Convince your GM to let you port Kung Fu Genius over from 3.5

>>51799282
Your critique is nice and comfy to read but pls be fair anon, what about Soralis, Haarld, Foress, Jin, Azrael, Asher, Artemy, Vican, Brihzwald and Arme?

>>51799390
Probably better to go after people with character sheets first for critique.

>>51799369
DHB's too autistic to throw together a backstory that fast. What's his backstory anyways.

>>51799411
Le drunken strongman with a heart of gold

>>51799390
I thought I made it clear I was playing favorites. But I can talk about a couple more.

Foress and Haarld are both laughably bad.

Azrael is kind of funny in that he actually included Ciaran as a reference to how he ripped off Artorias for his character art.

Soralis is...do you really expect me to critique blank space?

>>51799405
Pretty sure most of the other guys had also posted their character sheets.

>>51799411
His family has been fighting in the crusades for generations, he grew up Nerosyan. Had a weird thing with talking to foreign crusaders. Had some weird shit when his grandfather died that he didn't really feel much because he had never met the guy. Father trained his older brother. Older brother died. Felt bad. Heard his dad cursing the fact his family had nothing to show for their service. Got the idea of becoming a hero king and founding his own nation among the crusaders. Got an emissary familiar when he got the idea. Worked fingers to the bone. Talked to more foreign crusaders. Trained hard. Went to war. Almost died and was saved by an old friend.

His personality blurb:
>Cheerful and boisterous, sociable. Solomon is a man bent towards a single idea, becoming a king among crusaders and ensuring his family's name is never forgotten. He is fond of wine, women, and warfare, unashamed of his human traits. He sees the world as something that needs to be experienced, drunk in while one is alive.

>>51799424
What about your favorite girls then?
I just enjoy reading your descriptions of the PCs

>>51799420
I didn't really get drunken out of it. The only time drink is mentioned is in her personality blurb.

>>51799221
I wonder how many characters are actually in the running if you cut out everyone who hasn't updated their sheet, finished their application, or ignored the guidelines

>>51799461
Theres like 20 of them left after we trim out those who don't have their sheets up. Maybe someone else can do that shit and add orange crosses this time around or something.

>>51799342

>Love the fact that she makes the symbiote a unique character
>Feel she cheapened the concept a bit by adding the dinosaur

Leila Black
>I really like her take on being an Asmodean

>Damn shame it looks like this app's been abandoned

>Has a neat little backstory about riches to rags to hopefully riches again
>I'm biased because I like fit girls

>>51799582

>>51799614
Yeah, why can't we just use Comeliness like normal person? It's not that hard a formula if you've got a calculator.

>>51799655
What's the calculation?

>>51799659
[ ( Str + Con ) / 8 ] + ( Cha / 2 ) + ( 3d6 / 4 )
Plus racial bonuses, presented in the link below.

http://fizzygoo.com/Dnd/Variant/Comelns.html

Rolled 3, 6, 1 = 10 (3d6)

>>51799677
Well let's see then.

((18+14)/8)+(16/2)=12

Let's see the rest.

>elves have MASSIVE bonus
that's silly

>>51799696
>Elves #1 thing is that everyone finds them hot

Even Gimli trying to get up in those Galadriel guts. Not that silly.

>>51799696
So it looks like he's 14.5

>Pathfinder Vices but no one made a sexomancer
What a waste.

>>51799221
ITT we ship the current lineup based on their current profile.
>Rath x Tia
Ahoge love
>Amadeus x Seth
This kid badly needs a father figure love
>Jin x Francisca
Working hard to overcome their personal issues love
>Lucius x Fei
Nurturing love with a slight hint of detective conan syndrome thrown in
>Artemy x Mimi
I spent all night getting plastered and now we accidentally the sexual love
>Brihzwald x Kline
Furfag love
>Arme x Mercedes
Hothead love

>>51799731
The thing is that like the insufferable Broken Blade builds, building a pornomancer is basically locking yourself into just one schtick.

Admittedly, it's a more fun schtick than punching shit, but the moment you find a problem that can't be fixed by fucking it, you're shit outta luck.

Someone make a list of Wrath of the Raunchy characters that:
>have actual apps
>followed the character creation outline
>aren't laughably bad

If no one does I will, and I'll even do statistics on them.

>>51799745
>Problem that can't be fixed by fucking it
No such thing, just gotta get creative enough.

>>51799772
The answer is your PC + 4 others that cater to your fetish.

>>51799639
>Kannas of the Seven Waters
To be fair I think that this guy just copy pasted his app for the bamboozle assassin game.

>>51799787
I can't shake the feeling that WotR won't be raunchy at all and that it's just going to be DEUS VULT.

>>51799827
Even DHB is making a fetish bait character. It's gonna be raunchy.

>>51799739
I kinda liked Rath x Dossentistania back when she had more of a character sheet.
>He's a dumbass with giant force of personality, she's a reserved smart girl--they fight demons
>Rath has surprising charms, like actually knowing how to dance despite having zero social skills
>Would probably stick close to the smart girl, dragging her off to his tent to nervously ask her to help him read the Acts of Iomedae because he doesn't want to admit in public that he can't understand a part of it

>>51799739
That's not how you're supposed to do it anon. You're supposed to find the characters that suit each other the least and watch the sexual tension ramp up.

>>51799855
What would your list be then?

>>51799832
Y'know what? I'll give my thoughts on his guy.

Solomon Kreet III
>OH JESUS LOOK AT ALL THAT TEXT
>Amiable, but generic-ass personality and goals. Not so bad, and downright stellar compared to some.
>Staunch refusal to do ERP in a game advertised as being lewd
>final thoughts: oh shit nigga what are you doing

>>51799639
Wisteria?

>>51799929
Formerly Kreia Denham. I think I heard something about there being too many Asmodean apps and the player feeling like they wanted something more unique.

>>51799928
I think DHB made a more generic character because last time he made an out there character /pfg/ fucking flipped it's shit for a day and a half.

>>51799991
If he had posted it at a better hour I bet /pfg/ still would've flipped it.

>>51799991
>out there character /pfg/ fucking flipped it's shit for a day and a half.

I thought /pfg/ like the Gunmonkey.

>>51799928
>Staunch refusal to do ERP in a game advertised as being lewd
lewd != ERP

>>51800003
True, but it does imply that sexual things might at some point happen. And DHB's app basically says "No, fuck that, I'm going to sit it out."

>>51799928
>Amiable, but generic-ass personality and goals. Not so bad, and downright stellar compared to some.
Even in his back story he has a line saying:
>It was not exactly an original thought, a dream common among the children of the crusade, but in that moment a mixture of emotions awakened something inside Solomon.
>It was not exactly an original thought
So yeah I think he caught this.

Honestly DHB has done a lot darker backstories, a lot of interesting back stories, this one is a lot more straight forward. An obsession with foreigners is interesting I think.

>>51799997
I'm talking about Moon Assassin.

>>51799996
I think middle of the night posting might also be strategic.

>>51800003
It's just that when everyone else is saying "Sure, I'm down, let's just not go crazy with it", he's the only one who seems like he's being a wet blanket.

>>51800003
Hold on, is WotR not an explicit ERP game?

>DHB edited his character app 1 minute ago
Is he reading this thread?

>>51800064
He's been posting in it for a while now...

>>51800064
He said he was earlier.

>>51800092

How important is it to have Detect Magic in a party? I may end up changing from a character concept I really like to something entirely different at the last minute because our party isn't going to have any capabilities to Detect Magic.

>>51800312
Detect magic is extremely important.
However.

Just make sure one party member has good spellcraft and spend 2k on this:

>>51791828
Yes, and lots of norths have doors to the city of doors. Why do you think the north *always* has a cockney accent?

Can you support/be the face of the party with a Char of 5 or 7?

>>51800512
Int and clever wordplay will let you handle one skill, probably diplomacy which might end up being enough to get by alone. The others can be mitigated with the right tools. A CHA dump Vigilante with social grace, Intimidating Prowess feat.

If you're lucky your group might have a Feint or Intimidate Martial.

>>51800512
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/traits/social-traits/student-of-philosophy

Go nuts.
There's also stuff for int to intimidate, or wis to diplo or wis to bluff, but this is the only one that gives two different skills.

>>51800512
Any character with access to the Conversion or Reformation inquisitions will also do, as they net you Wisdom to Diplo and Intimidate (plus Bluff with conversion).

Gonna DM for 6-8 players. Roleplay/intrigue heavy. I'm intentionally overpowering the players. Second time DMing (first time was a one shot, also large group).
How fucked am I, /tg/?

>>51800553

How do I build a monk of the silver fist /pfg/? Do I go dex or art, what feats? SEND HELP

>>51801389
>dex or art

>>51801395
Mean STR autocorrect a shit.

>>51801389
If its dsp then I see very little reason to not go dex unless you very badly want those two initial feats for something else.

Many people will tell you that the feats spent on weapon finesse and deadly agility can be a complete waste since all they do is let you use X for Y, but in its own way its probably going to at least be equivalent to improved initiative since you'll be having a much higher dex than if you went for the SAD package.

How much flexibility is desirable? If you want to be both ranged and melee, what should be your dext vs str ratio?

How important is the ability to counter spells for an initiator?
I've got +13 Will with two rerolls per day at level 9. I kind of feel like I should take Disruptive Wave to not get buttfucked by a caster, but I've already picked all my maneuvers and am quite happy with them.
Hmmmm...

>>51801793
Depends on your options, and what you want your primary to be, if you want ranged primary,focus into Dex if you want melee to be your primary str, and if you want 50/50, Dex, due to unchained rogue.

>>51801844
Not that important really, as long as you can hit them, and threaten them their casting should not be a huge deal.

>>51801881

Is 16 a decent number at lvl 1, or should I go for 17/higher?

>>51801900
Is that 16 before or after racial mods? And what is your stat generation?

>>51801910

20pts buy. 16 after racial for dext (+2), 16 str without racial bonus. How much flexibility do I lose with:

>17 str, 14 dext
>15 str, 17 dext?

Does anyone have a link to premade lvl 1 character sheets? I'll be running a game for newbies and I don't want the complexity of character generation to scare them away.

>>51801975
Use the paizo iconics

>>51801961
You should have at least 18 in your primary stat after racial mods, my suggestion would be 18/14 after racial mods if you really want both dex and str, and then sink all your points into dex, this will give you three damage when two handing, however I would say if you want to be a real switch hitter just go with three levels of unchained rogue and ignore str.

Is Taldor Ascendant kill?

>>51802163
Probably, it is a pfg game, glad I never finished my app for it.

>>51802113
>18

Even when you take into account the option to lvl it up every four? levels?

>>51802245
At level 1, an 18 should be the gold standard of primary stats. Lower is generally a sign you don't have the stats to pull off being good at your job.

That's an acceptable playstyle, but you won't have any recourse if the GM doesn't scale enemies back and you end up dying because your magus's touch attack bonus wasn't enough to hit.

>>51802245
>>51802268
If starting at level 4 to 7, a lower initial score can and should be used to shore up weaker stats, and to use the additional point to increase your primary. At 8 however, ideally you want two point in your primary.

This assumes you don't need 13 int or something for feat requirements or the like of course.

>>51802290
Depends on the level you plan for, if you plan to cap at about 12 one odd Stat, if you cap at 16 higher you want your primary stat even, you get a total of five stats from leveling and can get five more into your primary from wish.

>>51802330
The following point is debatable, but I feel builds should always be created with the abilities the character can do on entering the game as a primary concern, and anything more than one or at most two levels away should be considered effectively irrelevant. If you start play at level 1 your build should not take into account how many stat points you have at level 20; it simply does not matter as most games will not reach two extra levels, let alone your character surviving that long.

If you DO have a GM who will mollycoddle you from levels 1 to 20 on one character then your build won't matter and you can probably bully them into letting yourself retrain because they are probably a monty haul GM anyway.

Always build characters for the level you're at, not in some 6 levels time.

>>51802399

Is this good enough if I want to switch between archery and melee as emergency. Assuming that I will increase Str every number of lvls.

Str 14.
Dext 18.
Con 14.
Int 14.
Wis 12.
Char 5.

How survivable is archery compared to melee?

>>51801459
How do I go about building this monk then? I immagine TWF is a must.

What are the best/essemtial feats for two-handed weapon?

>>51802659

Power Attack and Furious Focus.

Now go, let the legend come back to life.

>TFW only realize just what felt off about an archetype you saw in a playtest after its too late to change it

Mercurial Duelist could have been so much more

>>51802709
Furious focus seems like a waste of a feat

>>51802547
Why would you increase STR every level?
Dex is far more important since you should be full attacking every round with archery.

>>51802804
You're a martial. Any feat you take is a waste of a feat.

>>51802804

How so?

>>51802822
Don't be pedantic, furious focus is a pretty crappy feat.

>>51802828

I've put it on every martial I've ever made, and they always seem to become the solidest damager in the group.

>>51802804
What else are you going to spend your feats on? Metamagic or maybe spell focus to help your DCs along?

Oh wait, you're a filthy muggle.

>>51802163

It's the weekend. The GM is probably doing other shit.

>>51802819
STR pumps your damage.

>>51802993
You would get more damage out of being a bard and taking arcane strike, you are getting one damage every eight levels, where dex will give you reflex saves, to hit, and ac.

>>51802828
Furious Focus is better than Weapon Focus on a full BAB character until level 6. Even after 6 it's good.

Are switch hitters good? (archery followed by melee as they close as a ranger/slayer/wathever)

>>51803176
Never as good as dedicating to one or the other, but a ranger can make it work.

>>51803176

It's the most feat-intensive build in the game, but they're incredibly useful... And kind of redundant, since a switch-hitter is often in a party that will kill an encounter within 5-6 rounds, making the switch-hitting kind of useless except for situational stuff like "you get ambushed in the tavern" or "you're fighting at range."

Is there any class/build that allows you to fight as a Roman Legionary? First throw the Pilum, then strike with the sword?

>>51803203

Tower Shield+Gladius, whistle and Pullo getting back in formation.

>>51803176
A (Desperado optionally) Privateer Warlord might pull it off efficiently, but then an initiator doesn't get much benefit either due to the abundance of maneuvers that allow for movement as part of attacking.

>>51803203
I think there's one that lets you fight in a Phalanx formation... Provided you have thirteen other peeps to pull it off with.

>>51803203
Piercing Thunder Warlord-there's plenty of spear-throwing maneuvers, being in any of the discipline's stances lets you pick up your weapon as a free action, and you just need one feat so that you can use all the other maneuvers with your gladius too.
