Muy Bueno Box! It's awesome. I received a copy for Xmas and have busted it out with my wife and kids.... (all first timers to the table, ;) ) and it was great. Quality of the product is awesome. Books are nice, easy to read, and really a great intro into RPGing. The cardboard minis are...

How funny. As a looooong time GM and player, here's what I take from this. As a GM, you didn't check the character PRIOR to allowing it in your game. Your bad. You apparently ignored that the class is in the ADVANCED PLAYERS GUIDE (not Core Book) and on top of that, is applying an Archetype...

Thanks for taking the time to look at this first off. Here's my issue. I'm currently in a Pathfinder group running an adventure path that we're now a couple of books and several months of sporadic gaming into. I have had a regular group of gamers I play with for a LONG time, but recently a...

pc's need to sneak in to plant an object that frames a member of an opposing faction for a crime pc's need to infiltrate an area to perform an act of sabotage on an opposing faction / member - poisoning or tainting a wine in a competition, ruining a batch of the king's ale before a party...

thanks! Thanks for the input guys, that helped clarify a lot. A buddy of mine pointed out too that Sneak Attack might actually be *harder* on a prone foe, as depending on how they are 'prone' (on back , face, etc) would possibly greatly limit the number of weak points you could exploit. Also...

I agree, I actually posted rather hastily and wasn't clear. The move action to stand would take off the flat-footed effect. I'm mostly concerned I guess about the prone condition and the AC effects. I realize the RAW has a specific effect and doesn't clarify where the penalty to AC comes in when...

No, it's more of a question on flavor and tactics I think - it's not so much prone, but the fact that someone is knocked prone due to a trip attack. I think there's a difference between being on your back and being KNOCKED on your back, but that's hard to quantify. I think I was meaning more...

So guys, I have a question I haven't found the answer for in the book sufficiently. If a target is knocked prone and then uses a move action to stand up, would they be considered flat-footed at any point? I have a rogue who is using a whip to trip opponents and prone them in prep for a sneak...

Character excelerator excel sheet The sheet my group has been using is the Pathfinder Character Excelerator. I'm not sure who develops it, but it's awesome. The current editions of Heroforge for PF proved to have some bugs, and my group isn't big on buying RPG software since we never know what...

PFRPG char sheet / generator The current Pathfinder Heroforge is a giant mess, I'd avoid it for now. I'm using the Character Excelerator, which works a lot like the hero forge sheet, but this one is built for PF and actually calculates bonuses correctly. Pathfinder Database - Pathfinder...

Sort of an arcane archer... I have a character that's level 17 now and was originally going for the Arcane Archer PrC, but as I got closer to it, I realized what a waste it was. I wish I'd realized it before I took the prereq. level of Wizard and a level of AA. The Improve Enhance Arrow option...

DMG Items? IIRC, in the DMG on page 285 under "Creating your own magic items" there's a table that has an option to create magic items that don't use an item slot. There's a footnote that reads "4 See Magic Items on the Body, page 214. Basically, an item that does not take up one of the spaces...

Even Better.... And one thing to note is that Manyshot only allows you to apply the precision based damage once, for the first arrow of the batch. However, Greater Manyshot, from the Exp. Psionics Handbook, allows you to use Precision Damage per each arrow. So, with Greater Manyshot and Ranged...

Great Cleave and You Our group actually found that Great Cleave is very sweet, and really has 2 applications AFAIK. The first is as a single-person tactic, which you just cleave your way thru whatever as per the feat. This is great for mooks, crowds of commoners, goblins, etc. The Dwarf I run...

Apologies My apologies, I'll keep it civil. :o
