    Pathfinder 2E Paizo announced Tian Xia World Guide, Character Guide, and the Season of Ghosts adventure path.

    Mine had that too. Maybe a reference to the switch from OGL to ORC, if that switch is contained in the code? It's a curious thing.

    Pathfinder 2E Healing as a Playstyle in Pathfinder 2e

    I really like how Kineticist opens up different ways to be the "support / heals", all of which are active gameplay options. And yeah. Timber Sentinel was very hard for me to pass up. Especially as when we were level 4 and almost 5, we hit a plot point where a fae wanted 3 trees to replace those...

    Pathfinder 2E AP Sales numbers?

    That's a subject of open debate rather than consensus. On both points. I see people argue over these two things often. Our group is rather enjoying the kingdom building rules in Kingmaker 2E. Abomination Vaults does not have any major sub systems. Gatewalkers uses the deviant abilities...

    Pathfinder 2E AP Sales numbers?

    There's a massive spoiler to Season of Ghosts right in the first few pages of the adventure. So it's hard to talk about that one if you have it and have read past the introduction. I'd also warn anyone who expects to be a player in Season of Ghosts to never even dare thumb through the pages...

    Pathfinder 2E AP Sales numbers?

    There are so many choices that it can come down to what kind of adventure you want. They cover a lot of different themes. For almost every one of them I've heard both very good and very bad reviews. If the theme is the one you're group is into it will be good. If not it will be bad. But I would...

    Pathfinder 2E Paizo announced Tian Xia World Guide, Character Guide, and the Season of Ghosts adventure path.

    $80? I forgot how much this stuff costs for non-subscribers. Yeah I got it. It's very good. There is one culture in there that seems a bit "on the nose" as a North Korea proxy, but it's less "copy-paste direct than some discussion of it implied. Once I read it I was fine with it. We've only 1...

    Pathfinder 2E AP Sales numbers?

    That reads like an over reaction. I'd not read so much into things. AV and Kingmaker are very popular right now because they have Foundry integration and pretty recent. Newer APs have yet to come into force as much because the average AP takes 1-2 REAL LIFE YEARS to run for many groups. They...

    Pathfinder 2E AP Sales numbers?

    One thing to note is that a lot of people these days have Pathfinder subscriptions. So there are a lot of sales happening that are just 'automatic'. Since the release of the Gatekeepers AP, I've been mailed / PDF'd every thing Paizo makes for Pathfinder, including the PDF only Pathfinder...

    Pathfinder 2E Healing as a Playstyle in Pathfinder 2e

    In one shots I've also played a Druid and an Air / Water Kineticist. The Druid did not hold up well in combat, but excelled out of combat because I had feats to spare for solid medicine skills even though I did not go down the berry route (at the time I wasn't sure of my ability to have berries...

    Pathfinder 2E Healing as a Playstyle in Pathfinder 2e

    For me I do both. I like healers and I'm playing a Kineticist / Bard right now, that will soon also be a Blessed One. Free Archetype game so I'm going nuts with it. We're level 5, so I only have my first Kineticist heal, but I also have a fast healing ability through bard, and battle medicine...

    How Visible To players Should The Rules Be?

    Interesting. In a very different thread on reddit's PF2E forum I gave an answer to my perspective on this. Over there the question was about power gaming, etc... That got me thinking about how in video games and especially MMOs a very frequent theme is to 'build for the meta'. To build for the...

    Pathfinder 2E The starknife hurts my brain

    At least it's not as bag as a Klingon weapon. But fantasy and SciFi are full of weapons like that that look cool in art but have obvious flaws with 'lack of force multiplication' or 'bad grip' or things like leverage, holding, stability, weight balance, structural integrity, and so on. It is...

    ICv2 Reports Disappointing Year For Hobby Games Channel: TTRPGs Down, D&D Declines 30%

    My YouTube subs only just caught up to this thread existing so I'm a little late to the thread on this one. This has probably been noted already but this almost seems inline with the intentions for both WotC and Paizo. WotC seems to want people to move over to digitial purchases. Paizo really...

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder Monster Core

    Anywhere they didn't match their mythology origins (if such existed), which is almost everywhere, essentially can be called setting specific. And anything which didn't have a mythology origin would be setting specific by that very fact alone. I do not know how well the Monster Core creatures do...

    Pathfinder 2E Simplified PF2e?

    I'm not sold on this as an approach to simplifying PF2E. I don't think it's the feats that make PF2E a medium-light complexity game (I've been at this since 1980, so to me PF2E is only medium-light compared to what I recall from the 3.x and earlier days. I consider 5E to be light complexity and...
