I think you're on the right track with Steelfist Commando for what its worth., its more deciding on the other half of the gestalt.

>>53686947
Entropic Sage Hedgewitch || Steelfist Commando Warlord

Argent is giving a free discipline swap, so toss out that rank ass steel serpent and grab yourself Elemental Flux. From there, just pick the maneuvers you want, maining Elemental Flux.

Spending a single spellpoint, when you kick someone you should be good to add something like 18d6 fire damage to a single kick.

You could also go Aurora Soul Mystic, but they lose out on BAB, which might be important given this is a gestalt game (and thus, high BAB access is easier to come by).
>>
>>53686974
As bad as this is going to sound, which has less bookkeeping between entropic sage and body avowed? I know my own flaws, and tracking stuff that isn't basic Vancian spell slots has given me trouble in the past, so I want to keep it in the realm of what I know I can play well.

>>53687003
That sounds pretty fucking nuts, and I love it already. I'm a fan of full BAB and steelfist already, so I'll be keeping that for sure.

>>
>>53687019
probably entropic sage honestly, given the number of clauses and shapes and so on and so forth that avowed gets.
>>
>>53687019
Don't forget to take the mystic assault and improved mystic assault feats! They enable way stronger full attacks!
>>
>>53687019
>>53687029
Avowed is simpler because there's no resource pool.

You pick your stuff and then you just have it all day with no tracking at all.
>>
>>53687019
Go Body Avowed so you can main Strength instead of Dex while maintaining a stellar AC. Use Steelfist Commando to grab Prescient Dodge for Charisma to AC as well. Stats should be STR=CHA>CON>DEX=INT>WIS
>>
>>53687052
A fair argument too.

Neither is particularly hard to bookkeep honestly.
>>
>>53686962
Argentum, the character itself is also from the legend, just genderbent and with an entirely overhauled backstory. A few of the story beats were from the original novel as well.

In the start of the current campaign I'm in, we were tasked with a missing persons case. Missing person was semi-murdered by a local armsdealer.

We cut a deal, where we pinned the death on a magical mishap, got cash from all sides, made contacts on both the respectable parts of society as well as the underworld, and even got to keep the magical object instrumental in the death.
>>
>>53687058
CON should equal DEX which is greater than INT there, I'm sorry, I'm sleepy.
>>
>>53687029
Got it. SoP doesn't look too bad, from the wiki synopsis on the "using spheres of power" page

>>53687052
>>53687063
I'll be sure to check out avowed more carefully as well then, because having STR as my primary stat does sound really nice.

So what I want to do is just take Channel 4 times, and maybe 3 Eruption, and then stack up on passive clauses with Inferno as my main modulation
Am I correct so far?
>>
>>53687517
Pretty much.

You might not even need channel 3 or 4 if you don't plan on full attacking so much.
>>
>>53686921
That whatnows?
>>
Now that it's known how Trick Attack works (as a full action, make one attack and roll a skill check against a DC of 20+CR to gain 1d8 damage per each odd level, such as 1d8/2d8/3d8 at levels 1/3/5, etc.; in addition, you treat the enemy's *AC as 2 lower when you succeed on the skill check), I have another concern.
I believe such a formula is way too flat to be reasonably useful throughout the game.
First, let's imagine a level 1 Operative. Realistically, we can expect +4 DEX, 1 rank, and +3 class bonus in a skill for a total of +8. That means having to roll 13 or higher to get your main combat feature against a level 1 monster, which is oddly rare and doesn't sound fun.
Second, it's likely that, at high levels, similarly to Pathfinder, this DC will be really easy to meet due to there being ever more ways to boost skills, making the DC change from "too high" to "negligibly low" over the course of level progression.
For an example of the above assertion, a Sarcesian's stat block (using it for the example as it has trick attack) has +17 in its' highest trick attack eligible skills at CR 5, meaning it needs to roll a natural 8 to trick attack an equal-level creature, which sounds far more reasonable.

>>
>>53687816
Quick question: does the Sarcesian have Skill focus, and why are you companies a CR 5 creature against a level one creature for a comparison of ability? One would think you'd use a level five person, which would have a skill rank of 5, +3 for class skill, skill focus for +3 more, and a dex bonus of at least +5 by that point for +16 against a DC 25, needing an 11 to gain +3d8 damage. This disparity decreases as you gain levels (for instance the skill focus bonus goes to +6 at 10 ranks, and you would also likely have taken the other skill enhancing feat for another +4, meaning your total would be 10+3+6+4+6 dex for +29 against a DC of 35, needing a six or better for +5d8 damage).
>>
>>53687944
Well, barbarians is easy.

"What is best in life?"
>>
>>53687936

On second thought, just looking at the CRB, abjuration is a great spell list, but I don't see a lot of utility for spell focus as it's mostly cast on allies.

>>53687971

Why give people the illusion of pleasure when I can summon monster a unicorn and have a fun time with it and banish it when I'm through with it?

But in all seriousness, enchantment is a great school of magic for spell focus as it has a lot of save or suck/die stuff, but I see some obvious limitations to it as a primary school of magic. I might pick it up as a secondary, though.
>>
>>53687998
Because if it only takes you a maximum of two minutes to pleasure yourself with a conjured monster, you'll never please an actual woman.

You want to know where stamina lies? Illusion. All those concentration and imagination based magics make you perfect for loving.

To show that the DC gets easier to meet with level. Duh.
>>
>>53688013

I'm not interested in pleasuring a woman, that's her responsibility. As much as I love color spray, it drops off after 5HD. Silent image is solid thoroughout, but if we reach the point where we're making saving throws, I wasn't creative enough.
>>
>>53688013

Once again though, like abjuration, illusion does not have a lot of spells with saving throws. I would personally just go with silent image and call it good for actual affecting illusions. Invis, blur, etc. don't have saving throws.
>>
>>53687944
For martial it's easy. Most actual studied martial traditions required philosophical studies - Bushido, the Heraldic and Courtly Traditions for Knights, the Knights Laureate were granted their knighthood for the arts and learning, etc.

PSA:

Please don't try to convert Pathfinder classes to Starfinder DIRECTLY. If you're going to do conversions, be careful and mindful about it and try to work with the new paradigm with "short rests," resolve points, EAC/KAC, etc.

The last thing I want to see is some jackoff porting a Jolly kineticist or whatever the fuck and thinking it'll be okay even when "touch attacks" are a lot weaker because of EAC.
>>
>>53688039
If you go with Spell Focus Illusion, you can craft Shadow Piercings. Also, phantasms (hallucination spells are amazing for confusing the enemy), images, Phantasmal Killer (the first true save or die, which gets the Spell Focus on both saves), and Shadow Evocation/Conjuration/Enchantment spells (which give access to all the spells on those three lists at the price of a single spell slot, giving you much greater versatility).
>>
>>53688083

I will totally give you that in the long run, illusion does seem to kick ass with the shadow evoc/conj/ench spells. I'm starting from level 1 and probably going to hit the low teens, max. I don't want to have a build around these abilities and only be able to use them in the last two or three games. If I was starting out higher, if the campaign would last longer, then fuck yeah.
>>
Picaroon with a cestus.. how do I make it work?
>>
>>53688108
Then Evocation is your real best bet, as the low level conjurations don't have many save based spells either - they're mostly defenses and summoned monsters (which the only reason to take spell focus for is augmented summoning).
>>
>>53688115
How do you not make it work? (Hint: Shielding Gauntlet Style is your friend.)
>>
>>53688128

For sure, I might just pick up both. I know that scorching ray as a scroll isn't too bad, and my GM keeps us flush in wands and scrolls.
>>
>>53688142
A cestus isnt a gauntlet Anon.. im confused.
>>
Where were you when 1d810 damage weapons were confirmed for Starfinder?
>>
>>53688169
Either Cestus or Gauntlet can be used with Shielding Gauntlet Style, which uses it to grant you a +1 shield bonus to AC when not attacking with it (until you get the third feat in the chain; the second feat gives you a war priests damage bonus at your level -4 with the cestus/gauntlet). You use the cestus against enemies in melee and use your gun against non-melee enemies (assuming you take the feat that prevents enemies in melee from getting AoO on you when firing in melee). Because it's a cestus, you can reload without issue.

Unchained Rogue is good for Gunslinger, as there are a couple of talents that directly give you good things like grit and deeds for free. The fact that they get dex to damage also means they can function in melee and ranged combat well.

>How it works is, at the point your character is using it, extraordinary. It's not invoking magic to " bend light around yourself and muffle any minor sounds you make." Things like real-world interactive camouflage and sound dampening show that you don't have to have magic to produce those effects.
>Nor is it a piece of gear that can be taken from you.
>Now, maybe that means you had a technomancer alter the quantum state of your entire body, so you could have different light and sound refracting qualities. that certainly would take magic to accomplish... but once it's done you just do it, like glass allows light to pass through it.
>Or maybe you learned deep meditation techniques. This is the same universe as occult rituals after all, there's no telling what you can do with mind over matter.
Or maybe you had Stealthites, a form of nanites, injected into your body that can cause this reaction, with the same biochemistry that allows your electric nerve impulses to continue to function even if you are hit by an EMP.
>Or maybe you allowed a Vangarian Phase Ooze seep into every pore of your body, so you could gain its natural ability to be hard to see and hear, though you can only prod the thing into doing so for short bursts at a time. Plus, everything sweet now tastes like copper, as you aren't afraid to remind friends.
>Those are decisions you can make to match your character's background.
the effect is extraordinary -- far from "normal," but not explicitly driven by magic or active technology, regardless of how you originally gained the ability.

How does one 1pp vigilante? Do I simply take a level in the archetype of my choice in vigilante and then go off to do something else as an entirely different class?

>>53690586
The main problem is that nobody will put in effort to app for a game that doesn't get popular.
No apps to talk about and no visible competition will mean it will never gain traction.

Ironically this would need to coast ENTIRELY off celeb names, because you could get an impression of the popularity and quality of other players with a non-spoiler list of which names have submitted something.

I'm going to say she took off with Cashmere's LOGS and the Succube, so she's really more or less recent in terms of actual relevance.

>>53690624
>>53690632
It means the players who apply actually want a game more than a meme, and as >>53690652 suggests you simply blacklist the apps that actually drop names or obvious references to their proposed character.

The campaign I envision has each player in the dark as to who their party members are, until they hear the legend and the rumor before meeting the man or woman behind the myth. Really Avengers-esque in a way, let them make assumptions and biases.

First, you misunderstood me. The anon is probably enough of a fucktard to interpret any discussion (even not by the author) as self-shilling, disqualifying any discussion-attracting app aka any good app.

Then I have misunderstood. My apologies.
>>
>>53690871
>I don't doubt they're shit
They aren't, that's the problem, they're the apps that are getting discussion because they're hilariously good by a blowout margin, not because they're hilariously bad by an even bigger margin.

>>53690882
Or because people want to fuck them. That's usually the case with attention attracting apps.

There's at least one memelord who wants to fuck C3 but I haven't seen anyone who wants to "FUCK Rinta"

On the internet where anyone can pick a cute anime girl image, it's personality and concept that sets one cute anime girl over the other.

I like how you're dodging the point. Once again, it proves my own without me having to do a thing.
>>
>>53691020
Well I don't really have the patience to give an in depth analysis but -
Beyond the technical level, Rinta is a good app because her main flaw, tone, has been handwaved as essentially irrelevant by Protagonist.
She provides an interesting personality and a cute, innocent, but fundamentally unhinged idealism, contrasting sharply with many other apps while providing a dramatic foil to people like C3 who are idealistic but not innocent. C3's idealism is like a mature, thought out idealism, but she's still a child at heart, her idealism is simply a child's idealism clad in adult clothing, while Rintaelle's idealism is one that is one of a child's through and through.
Rintaelle also manages to present her ideaology to the Princess in a suitably autistic way and in a way that's actually quite appealing for a naive princess. Furthermore, her ideals themselves are perfectly suitable for a game like this - 'everyone can be friends' is something that is hardly new to heroism, but Rinta is representative of collectivism going too far while actually believing, she's a well-intentioned extremist in the same way C3 is.

No, you're missing the point. The point is that because literally everyone can choose a hot girl as the picture, it's personality and concept that makes the hot girl better than other hot girls. His point is that if C3 or Rinta were shit apps people wouldn't care about them even if they were hot.

>>53691091
I believe you. Frankly, I find those sorts of characters incredibly boring so excuse me if I'm not impressed.

Rinta is Fate route Emiya Shirou, an immature child.

It's probably some curse shit, if she's supposed to be a demon broodmother someday. Sort of like that Lamashtu mask thing, whatsitcalled.
>>
>>53691157
Literally yes.
Rintaelle's whole shtick is "dude we can just all hold hands and be friends we just need understanding", she wants everyone to be happy but is naive about how she's going to do it.
C3's whole shtick is to literally become as the gods and essentially tell people 'okay, you're happy now', because she explicitly notes in her app that C3 [knows] everyone can't be happy at the same time normally.
One side is essentially convinced of the possibility of being the hero that unites the world, the other side knows it's impossible but deep down, she's never stopped wanting to be one.

I think despite her calling herself the Champion of Unity, Rinta's core ideal isn't "everyone should be friends".

Her Highlord tenet isn't Unity: it's Adaptation.
Rather than chasing a utopia of friendship, she's chasing the next level of technology, wanting to see what the future holds when distance is no longer an obstacle to communication nor magic aid.

Rinta isn't Gandhi or Martin Luther King. She's Alexander Graham Bell.

>>53691281
PLD is actually a pretty normal setting for the most part. The only big difference is monsters fug NIGHTWALKERS specifically which the entire party is. Otherwise you just have to fend them off or get eaten like normal.

What the players ask for is not indicative of the entire setting
>>
>>53691377
Wait they [only] fuck Nightwalkers? Also I was under the impression it was grimdark as fuck

>>53691353
I'd like to talk to you about Witch for a moment, then.

>>53691360
What about them, anon? Who do you want to see them interact with? What do you think they might accomplish?
>>
>>53691388
It's grimdark, but only the Nightwalker minority is compatible with the monsters. Most people just get butchered and eaten.
The Nightwalkers' magically endowed physiology is sort of malleable, protean, almost, and it changes with prolonged exposure to different patterns of corruption, leading to mutations. Normal human beings would simply die if exposed to that sort of corruption, much like they wither and die when exposed to Miasma. The horrific, Miasmic abominations sense the peculiar nature of Nightwalkers, and react differently than they would if exposed to bog standard humans, who merely serve as prey.
>>
>>53691388
Pretty much yeah. Theyre literally at Engineerung College right now, working on golems to rebuild cities. The only thing that went wrong in 6 weeks was Lysanders father sent thugs to harass the townies a bit.

There's just also a giant dragon eating people a days ride south, jockeying for territory with a death golem that's make Gracelord Nito smile and scratch it behind the ear holes.

She'll be respectful and kind and never try to oppress or cajole them, because she's a Pacifist. She leads by example, setting out a model of non-violence in all aspects of life. It's pretty straightforward stuff, like a cute anime girl Gandhi.

Which JttW apps aren't super derivative and actually demonstrate the player's originality?

>>53691842
Nymphs?

No. They really can't. Their entire existence is based on sexually attracting other beings whether they want to or not, and about a third of the time gender isn't even relevant. Hell, half of the myths are about them being chased and fucked by everyone and calling upon divine power to transform them into impossible to sex beings (trees and rivers and stones) or hypersexual beings (Hermaphrodite).
>>
>>53691842
Of course they can, we meet nymphs in campaigns and they always have one lover, not a dozen. The thing about long-life is you can actually relish love and monogamy without worrying about them being the "wrong one" because there will always be another one.

Long-lived races tend to be monogamous while short-lived tend to be polygamous, it is the way of things.

Touch choice. Though there's an abundance of 'beat things to death' people, so a spiritslayer might be a good idea.

Definitely Scarlet Throne Style; he beat off Miè Tiān Hái all too well for using a weapon one-handed.

Also, I'd think that Heavenly Frost: Untraceable Hazy Moonlight is just a refluffed version of Heavenly Blade of the Scarlet Throne.

Actually, I've only watched the first episode and that 5 minute video with Gale and Bones fighting each other. Really, it's probably gonna derive more from Lord of the Rings, save that the unholy lovechild of Sauron, Dio, and Bones of Creation already got his hands on 1/5th the ring of power.

The first real session, I've already admitted is essentially Ancient Chinese Council of Elrond, only with a bunch of L5R style political posturing.
