Paizo Games General /pgg/ (Pathfinder & Starfinder, formerly /pfg/)

Friendly reminder that Starfinder martials are still objectively inferior to casters and that Paizo doesn't give a shit about C/MD.

Paizo is literally the worst. More 3pp stuff!
>>
So for my character in JttW I've nearly settled on a Prophet (Perform (Tea Ceremony) instead of Perform (Dance)) Covetous cursed Intrigue mystery Oracle | Geisha Demagogue Bard.

I'm thinking of switching out Demagogue for Celebrity, but my overall ability to support falls because I no longer have Inspire Courage, but then again I'm a celebrity.

What do you guys think? Demagogue or Celebrity?

We literally don't know that, though. Until we get the damn game in hand, we literally have no idea.

So I'm finally gonna be able to use my favorite barbarian character again for side stuff my GM agreed to because I unfortunately had to leave very early on in the campaign and couldn't rejoin

What kinda zany stuff could a fighter girl get up to if she's a level 3 in Shattered Star, and left the main party to pursue her own interests? Assuming she's still in Magnimar and such? Any ideas I could take to my GM, anons?
>>
>>53717467
But the real question is which celebs.

There's many with schedules that don't fit together. Like Broodie and fucking... Everybody.
>>
>>53717440
Prophet comes from Inner Sea Intrigue (I asked the GM if I could switch out the normal Perform Dance for Perform Tea Ceremony). Covetous came out of Legacy of Dragons. Intrigue came out of ultimate intrigue. Demagogue and Geisha both come from Ultimate Magic.

This kills the Isao.

>>53717467
Reminder that nobody cares

Fucking Startoad man

>>53717467
I doubt there'll even be enough compatible celebs even if that were true.
>>
>>53717420
Speaking of JttW, have there been any big changes to characters that swayed any opinions? Enough for a new summary shitpost yet? Any new standouts, good or bad?
>>
>>53717392
Someone explain this to me, what about it exactly is so shit?
>>
Has DHB's final edit of Jericho gotten a review? Can someone give me a summary of his final version? I don't want to read the text wall.
>>
>>53717548
Flat-Footed in Starfinder is just a -2 penalty to AC which doesn't even enable sneak attacks.

Spending a standard action for a chance at -2 to AC for a round is horrid.
>>
>>53717555
Cute guy that needs a hug
>>
>>53717548
It boils down to "+2 to hit for one round", it has its uses but there are better ways to improve accuracy

I really want you to kill yourself, holy shit.

For fucks sake Rory, just give it a rest.
>>
>>53717396
True, that in addition I would say.
>>53717423
Thats why its "debate". Intelligent people can have disagreements and still work together.
>>53717400
CCC, Niccolo, Ortzi, Varius, Sibyl, Spidget.

Rotate one or two out with one of the better generic heroes like Derrin or Matheo.

There. Every situation will be approached with contemplative discussion leading into carefully considered action, fully appreciating whatever complex, roleplay heavy obstacles Protag has laid out.
>>
>>53717704
You don't think Aurelia will get in? I think if she gets finished she actually has excellent 'meme' potential if you will
>>
>>53717704
Niccolo's getting outright scrapped.
>>
>>53717683
No, I actually find that disgusting.
>>
>>53717715
Not him but I think Aurelia is dead just due to schedule. Even if she turns out to be the strongest single app by the end of things, I imagine there'll be some combination of great apps incompatible with her.
>>
>>53717704
>thinking Jericho won't get in
shit taste desu

Also Jericho, at least in his last edit, both has a vision and is analyzing that vision. He's perfect for debate club.
>>
>>53717715
Possible. Like I said I could be underestimating the (real)meme potential.
>>
>>53717734
Fair point.
>>
>>53717432
Did Paizo fire everyone and hire entirely new people? If not then yeah, we already know martials will suck.
>>
>>53717410
If only we hadn't driven the devs away
>>
>>53717739
Oh, havent reread it in a while.

I was just throwing out a rough idea to give an idea of what I think the team will look like, not trying to pass judgment.
>>
>>53717636
Show's he's a real human (snek)!
>>
>>53717704
>that in addition
No. That's the main thing. It's not going to be a "debate" in the sense you're thinking of.
Ortzi has no philosophy to speak of. I'm not sure I can trust you.
>>
>>53717693
This gnoll poster is too eloquent for it to be Rory
>>
>>53717704

Wow.

Why not just switch out CCC for Pepe while we're at it?
>>
>>53717392
>That realization that PFG became PGG to avoid threads dying
>And they still die

Glad I got out when I did.
I was foolish, following the trends when I had picked it up.
I knew well of the 3.5 boogieman, and sought to avoid it.
Little did I know that pathfinder was the boogieman I feared in a suit, and that suit slowly came off until I realized what it hid.

I do not hate my time with pathfinder, however I do not wallow in the fields of filth it has become. Instead I have moved forward, looking for greener pastures.
The same fate may befall me again, I may pick up an RPG that ends up being the same boogieman I steer clear of. But I would rather take that chance than remain close to the object of my hatred, allowing others the freedom to stay in their filthy fields if they so wish.

I will not force nor berate those who stay with pathfinder, or any other similar games, I only ask that you keep your eyes to the horizon rather than where you stand, for you never know what you might see if you look.
>>
>>53717775
Is about as retarded though.
>>
>>53717784
Spidgets a good app with a dumb name.
>>53717771
Have you reread his app recently? Honestly its probably the weekest on that team though, probably one of the ones to get replaced by an obligatory generic hero.
>>
>>53717775
I'm just trying to find my friend here who appreciates !Vegas
>>
>>53717808
Then take it to the fucking discord Jesus christ
>>
>>53717805
>Have you reread his app recently?
It's definitely a step up from his Drifters days, but it's still very incomplete philosophy-wise.
>>
>>53717823
What do you think I'm trying to do ffs
>>
>>53717805
Ortzi's explicitly notes his lack of a philosophy or goal. He's just a weaker Matheo, and Matheo ain't even ready for presentation.
>>
>>53717843
He'll make a good NPC.
>>
>>53717704

That's a refreshingly different list than I usually see.
>>
>>53717840
I'll set up a Discord ID in about an hour. Just getting ready for my own game right now.
>>
>>53717868
Wait so you don't have a Discord?
>>
>>53717480
Magnimar? Very nice place to raise a proper ruckus, especially for such a strong young woman such as her. Personally? There aren't too many quests she could do, but the place is famous for being maximum comfy so maybe she could find a tavern and raise a little hell. She's Shoanti, and they're Varisians; you're the tough, frightening yet exotically alluring warrior-princess they hear horror stories about. Play that up!
>>
>>53717875
Nope. One of the other GMs was encouraging us to do so, I will now.

Quick, someone go into the gnollposter discord and post their IDs, so we can fucking exile them.
>>
>>53717704
CCC, Niccolo, Derrin, Ceraphine, Jericho, and Sibyl would be my pick for team P H I L O S O P H Y.

The group generally boils down to:

Contemplative - CCC (Ambitious), Niccolo (Academic)

Dynamic - Derrin (Progressive), Jericho(Conservative)

Empathetic - Ceraphine (Stalwart), Sibyl (Flexible)

Each character has a foil with a similar base philosophy, but a vastly different approach to it. It not only gives rise to philosophical waxing between the those with vastly differing viewpoints, but also debate between those who only differ in a few ways. With this setup, the characters get to express both the broad strokes and the nuances of their beliefs; while still keeping the party from fragmenting.

So...

Heh.
>>
>>53717911
I like that idea! Especially since she happens to be a bloodrager with... Charisma, so to speak. Maybe I could find a quest in a tavern! Or something. The main party she split off from is currently level eleven so that might change some things up in terms of what quests she can go on
>>

We can keep you out of games.

Why, and how do you know this, are you his writer?

Rory got in my Discord. He said he was angry you guys kept saying he's gnollposting when he's not. He wants you to stahp.

Just STAHP.

He can change the class without scrapping the character

>>53718091
You know what could stop that.

IF YOU DON'T FUCKING GNOLLPOST YOU ANNOYING TWAT.

>>53718124
He said he was interested in a different character.
>>
>>53718126
That's rich coming from a guy posting about his cabal. We're just talking about a fantasy race here, gnolls ain't exactly private stuff.

Wait a minute... How did you even get the reputation for gnollposting, anyway?
>>
>>53718057
That's disheartening, I quite liked him.

Then replace Niccolo with... Varius, I suppose? Maybe Giancarlo.

The contemplative and unambitious slot is hard to fill with the current crop of apps, but very important for this group to remain balanced.

Faggot post your goddamn app. If you can write anything half-way decent, you could get in even against 20 great characters, and I'm sure there aren't that many of those.
Scheduling, composition, novelty, preferences, fetishes, planned plot threads, there is so much fucking shit that goes into deciding who gets in.

I don't remember any big game here without some surprise except maybe Blingmaker, and for the record I've been damn good at guessing.

C'mon man. There are at least several apps in the works. People talk about the apps that were posted days ago and Ensoulment has steady discussion. Protag would probably be delighted to see another good app, so make it fucking good!
>>
>>53718737
It's not worthwhile making guesses before the last stretch of an app period, people jump the gun way too fast on most games when apps change and players hold off.

I'm not the only person who plays bingo with apps and usually I'm pretty consistent with other lists I see. I personally think most DMs find one or two apps they love and build parties around them, so usually I can guess most of them working off of what I think is the sure-in and taking into account all the schedules but I've more or less never been 100% right and the defeatist attitude of some people here annoys me so much.
>>
>>53718881
I think thats true, DMs see one or two apps they feel are perfect and then build the rest of the party to fit with that or to fill out roles.

It makes it REALLY hard to predict who will get into a given game, unless the number of good apps is low OR you're in the DM's head

Is using the sword a martial art? Why? It's not your fists.

How could unarmed combat possibly ever be a martial art when you don't even have instant transmission and soul bombs?

I've never played pathfinder before. Never even heard of it to be honest. I play a lot of Dark Heresy (warhammer) and DnD though, so I have some inkling of idea how tabletop games work. I have a core book and Im obviously going to flip through it.

But while I'm doing that, I'd like to hear some cool character ideas from you guys to help with inspiration. Maybe some "One time I made a character that..." stories?

Three words, buckaroo.

Thirty Years War.

Look up that conflict, look up all the bullshit that happened before and after it, and then build a setting for that. Now you've got a setting that's not only wet with conflict, but makes sense within the purview of your typical fantasy campaign.

In my opinion the RPG on seems to be worse, but that could be the TES lore nerd in me sperging out.

As for Golarion, some of us don't hat it, bt I know many of us, myself included, are just kinda disappointed in how much wasted potential it has. With a good GM rewriting parts of it it can be cool though.

>>53719862
>I play a lot of Dark Heresy (warhammer) and DnD though,
Pathfinder is basically 3.5e D&D, with a shiny coat of paint and most all of th same problems and issues. It was literally made and marketed to attract grognards who felt upset when 4e was released

Anons, i'm looking at Entropist (http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/entropist) and Kinetic Mystic (http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/kinetic-mystic)

It's easy enough to meet the prereqs for Kinetic Mystic as an Entropist (you can meet the skill prereqs and your... weird, prepared wild talent stuff counts as psychic spellcasting). The only thing you can't get as an Entropist is any of the Spellstrike-alikes that are also required.

Is there any way to get Spellstrike, or a similar class feature, through a 1-level dip, or preferably, without touching dipping at all? Currently I'm looking at a Magus 2/Entropist 4/Kinetic Mystic 4. Alternatively, I can bite the bullet and do Entropist VMC Magus, and at 11th, take my first level of Kinetic Mystic (while retaining MOSTLY full progression of talents but delaying it to the endgame)

What are your thoughts on it, anons? What should I gestalt with it on the side?

Before I decided on what I was actually going to play, I knew right off the bat that I wanted to present it as a story teller performance in the vein of rakugo or stage plays, with an introduction of the era and the character told dramatically.

Most of the time it's more like "I have some lines I really want to work with" though.

Base him off of Steve Irwin, or that one old guy from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. I like to play my Druids as more of an Ecologist/Biologist type person. Someone who finds beauty in the intricacies of nature, free from petty human morality and concerns, and seeks to understand and learn how to live their life from it.

Nature is Nature, it is neither beautiful nor ugly. Nature concerns itself not with what humans deem as right or fair, it is an ongoing dance of life, death, birth, killing, creation, and destruction. To disrupt or usurp such part for profit is folly and shortsighted when done so without understanding how the process works. It is by careful understanding and learnign how the nature around us has adapted and grown, free of human bias and hubris, that one can learn to benefit and harness its power.

Also, I recommend A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold as required reading if you wanna go the Ecologist route of Druid

Hey guys, I'm looking at the Flexible Wizardy spell line, and I'm unsure if these are any good. I mean, being able to have flexible slots seems like it makes Schrodinger's Wizard an active ingame force, but maybe I'm overhyping it. Plus Spell Mastery is an annoying tax.

Also, would it be worth picking up Split Slot alongside these feats as well? Or would it be too redundant? I mean, the Wizard I'm currently building is already super redundant in terms of spont-casting from his class features and PrC, I'm not sure If I need to double-down or not.

Withholding judgement for now.

There are other apps that touch on the necessity of story/entertainment, but none I've seen acknowledge the emptiness of the spectacle. It's a clever twist, that could give rise to an interesting character. At some point. In the future. But as it stands, this is a skeleton, not a character.

Ah. Since you're actually here, and this isn't just mindless shitposting, I'll try to give you something a little more substantial.

>>53721959
Two major things come to mind, first, figure out who this character is, what his personality is like, and how the philosophy shapes his day-to-day life. Second, I'd tie the backstory (which you spend an inordinate amount of time on, given how simple it is and the length of the piece) into his current beliefs and outlook. The point of a history is to explain where the character came from and they are the way they are. Which it currently doesn't do.

The key to a successful app (at least in my experience) is keeping the narrative flowing. Each point should logically lead to the next.

Asking again!

So for my character in JttW I've nearly settled on a Prophet Covetous cursed Intrigue mystery Oracle | Geisha Demagogue Bard.

I'm thinking of switching out Demagogue for Celebrity, but my overall ability to support falls because I no longer have Inspire Courage, but then again I'm a celebrity.

What do you guys think? Demagogue or Celebrity?

I am also considering whether I should up my overall buffing ability and switch from Intrigue to a more buffing oriented mystery. My plan is to be relatively heavy on the support.

Also, funnily enough with the combination of Geisha and Demagogue I will be able to have a tea ceremony in order to cause a riot.

>>53722063
I can see some of that. I have a personality in mind, but I think I do a poor job of explaining it. I'm a bit confused on the backstory length thing. I hear from some that things need to be longer and more detailed, and from others I hear that it needs to be short and concise. Is the current version just trying to do to much, or is it just not tightly written enough?
>>
>>53722173
>hear from some that things need to be longer and more detailed, and from others I hear that it needs to be short and concise

It's personal preference. The background should be exactly as long as it needs to be to tell us everything you think is important about the PC. Anything less is failing to put your best foot forward; anything more is self-indulgence. My point wasn't that it needs to be longer, it was that you're missing key information, while spending a great deal of time ruminating on aspects that have no visible impact on character.

From my reading, the writing isn't tight enough. I could cut a paragraph's worth of text, and lose very little. Which, in a bio that short, is a death sentence.
>>
>>53722241
Hey man, do me a solid and put on a trip. Please.
>>
>>53722173
I'd like to say that while I agree with Reviewaloo's analysis, I think the quality of your prose is solid and your efforts to show personality through the backstory instead of keeping a separate block for it shows nicely.

Do make those cuts like he said, but keep your strengths in mind here when you're doing so.

>>53722157
>[Various Noncommittal Noises]

Broodie and I have fundamentally different views on how to build a character. No amount of Cuteposting can pierce the lump of coal I call a heart, so all their attempts at writing fall flat. It's like asking a lactose intolerant diabetic for their opinions on an ice cream sundae.

That said, if this concept is being played straight, I'm not a fan of it. I don't think there's much potential to tell a good story with the setup, unless the GM goes out of their way to make the backstory relevant. If it's a delusion... that could be interesting, but only if we're diving into what triggered it, and how far it'll go.

Also, so glad to see Broodie responded to criticism that their previous character was too dark in a calm, level headed, and reasonable manner.

I see you took my advice about giving him something he cares about... but the way you implemented it only serves to make his behavior inconsistent.

How does stealing the Princess' panties bring him any closer to being a "better" man?

The point of my suggestion was to give him something external driving him forward, something he actively has to serve, and weigh his choices against before acting. It's an easy way to keep the character "honest", to prevent them devolving into lolchaotic, and to provide some conflict.

You know what kind of game I'd love to play in some time? Something styled after Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles.

That game was the comfiest shit. You and a group of friends traveling the world to bring the MacGuffin juice back to your home to stave off the miasma for another year, all the while making friends, getting letters from family, and seeing sights. Meeting other caravans on the road also felt awesome, and it had a pretty subtle overarching plot that it never made unclear, even if it never told you things outright.

The idea of just traveling around the countryside with your team, righting wrongs and fighting monsters in between periods where you just sit down at the caravan and share stories? Get letters from home? that shit sounds amazing to me. I could really go for something that relaxing.

>Make your way across the continent while managing resources in a fairly streamlined way, fighting off brigands and monsters, absorbing or subjugating other tribes as you can
>Settle and try to hold your ground, or try your luck on entirely new horizons

>>53722765
Basically, from my reading of it, you added a shitton of plot, but still didn't support your Philosophy or develop Witch as a person.

Let me go through the the four key tenants, Truth, Justice, Life, and Spirit, to explain what I mean.

Truth - Only mentioned in the context of her upbringing, she never once engages with it, or seeks out truth. She just kinda stumbles upon it, then continues healing people as she always did. She's never trying to reveal the truth to others, or enlighten them. For the talk of "sees truth as the ultimate virtue" she does basically nothing in support of that belief.

Justice - Should be "Freedom" since I wouldn't call anything she does particularly just.

Life- This one is supported by her actions, but--I'll get to my complaints abut this principle later on.

Spirit - Other than literally having spirits, when does this come into play? She never provides guidance or council.

Basically, my biggest complaint with the app the first time around was that Witch was a blank slate; and you've done very little to change that. I still don't know her motivation for healing people (which should be damn important, considering "Life" is one of her four pillars), how she felt about gaining magical powers, why she decided to topple the government (or if it was even on purpose), or any number of things. You're still falling into the trap of prioritizing PLOT over character, by not proving the emotional context for these events. At the start, I didn't know anything about Witch and didn't give a shit about her. By the end I still knew nothing, and gave even less of a shit because I just had 5 pages of exposition shoved in my face.

The one thing I liked was paragraph 11(?) where it describes her growing up with the fey, simply because it tells us what she's thinking and feeling; the character actually comes alive for a time. At it's core, this isn't a short story or narration, it's a character piece. You need to make it about the character.

Your best bet unless you want a shield is just stacking high AC stuff. Full plate is your best bet, until then, armor with an armored kilt will have to do.

Severe social anxiety problems. GMs are put on the spot, which causes me panic attacks, and then I need to spend the next ten to fifteen minutes calming myself down. I could probably get over it for running games, given time, but it'd be a hell of a rocky road for the actual players. there's also the fact that I'm just flatly uncreative; I'm good at playing sounding board for ideas, but bad at coming up with them myself.

I've been playing DnD since I was like twelve or so (so about 14 years at this point) and I've played Anima: Beyond Fantasy, Shadowrun, All the iterations of DnD up to this point save for 5e, a little bit of Warhammer Fantasy, four of the Warhammer 40k RPGs, and even a bit of Dungeon World.

Why do you ask?
