Hi Enworld! As some of you know, I run a website called The Archives of Nethys, www.archivesofnethys.com. Similar to other fan SRDs, I wanted to focus specifically on making an easy to navigate website with Paizo-only content. I also wanted to efficiently cover what was allowed or not in the...

I would, personally, love for a 'signature' option at Paizo. I do so get tired of typing "Your God of Knowledge, Nethys". Having a signature would cut my work load in half! :)

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Reference Document The 'd20srd' version of the Pathfinder RPG is live! Everything is there and nicely hyperlinked. Very impressive!

Got mine 8/8/09

One correction on Nethys's post, made by James Risner.

Actually, the poor saves change as well. They go 'up' a step, from: Original: +0/+0/+1/+1/+1/+2/+2/+2/+3/+3 to Pathfinder: +0/+1/+1/+1/+2/+2/+2/+3/+3/+3

Great statistics! Kind of nifty to see how things parse out behind the scenes. I'm kind of curious now though. No monster is vulnerable to cold damage. What, then, is the point of the Wintertouched feat? I'm sure they'll eventually have creatures vulnerable to cold, but right now it seems...

Utilizing CR instead of HD is probably the better idea, I'll go with that. I want to shy away from giving more cause to take a 1 level dip in this. Pathfinder is striving to make it a class you could take up to level 20 and be happy with it, I don't want to discourage that goal.

It might be. I was intending to translate it directly from 4E without making too many changes to see how it played so far. The text from 4E is "whenever an enemy adjacent to you shifts or makes an attack that does not include you..." So even with reach weapons in 4E, it still ends up playing...

I am a person that enjoys 4E, but enjoys 3.5 and PRPG more. That said, I do like a lot about 4E that I want to yoink for my current games. One of the things I liked most about 4E was the "Mark" for the Fighters and Paladins. I felt this really gave a lot of oomph to classes that previously felt...

Dealing damage to the PC is only part of the issue. The text says "any creature striking you or your ally with a natural attack or a nonreach melee weapon is...." It seems pretty specific. I also said that the pounce issue was the least of my worries, and I only noticed it's craziness in that...

I've been thinking about this question for a while, but have been neglecting to ask it. The Dragon Shaman's energy shield is, arguably, one of the better auras that they possess. At my current player's level, she has her Auras at +2, which means everytime a creature attacks someone with the...

No worries then :)

Just to be clear, DLichen, you know I'm on your side, yes?

It says you add enhancement bonuses on 'damage rolls', not on 'rolling damage'. One seems to be a definition of something you can get, the other one seems to specify an action you physically take. The distinction seems, to me at least, to be important. I could easily see arguing the other side...

Looking further into it, I'm not sure why the definition 'damage roll' was brought into this, other then to confuse the issue. The definition of the Vorpal weapon seems clear. "Whenever you roll the maximum result on any damage die for this weapon, roll that die again..." If they meant for you...

Huh? Cleave says "and an enemy adjacent to you takes damage equal to your Strength modifier". Where in there does it say 'damage roll'? Heck, that's a plain as you can get it. "equal" to your "strength modifier". You can't really argue 'equal'. I probably should have clarified my meaning as...

I have to say I disagree with Hong's ruling on a 'damage roll' and 'rolling damage' being one and the same. To me: Damage Roll = Total damage done, despite any actual rolling Rolling Damage = Physically rolling for damage. A minion's damage could be considered a 'damage roll', for example, but...

For those of us who use a lot of modules, are there any guidelines on conversion from DnD's current 4.0 Skill Challenge system to yours? DC changes, difficulty adjustments, etc.?

It makes perfect sense, imho. My most recent math class was Calculus-related. I remember a lot of Calculus application stuff. Ask me about the old sin and cos from high school though? I draw an instant blank. We don't remember everything as we get older, we remember what we've used most...
