Jason Bulmahn recently shared a 2-hour video including a short playtest session of Pathfinder 2nd Edition played last week with the folks of Game Trade Media. Some interesting tidbits (many of which we have seen before). You can watch the full video below!

- It's confirmed that you have to spend an action every round to raise your shield.
- A +1 magical weapon deals double damage (or at least double damage dice)
- magical armor will also be something new
- there is a shield that bites the attacker with a block reaction
- magic items in general change the game. Not a pile of bonuses
- Ring of protection and Cloak of Resistance non currently in the book
- If you are behind cover, you can take cover as an action, doubling the AC bonus from +2 to +4
- pets (summoned creatures, familiars, companions, mounts) take an action to control and get two actions
- you can differentiate your stat bonuses within an ancestry. Actually the whole system of stat generation is different and it depends on the path you take to build your character
- archetypes will be an advanced way of customising characters, they're very excited about them
