I've only done a very little but it seems that there's a learning curve Lone Wolf Development Forums - View Single Post - Pathfinder Community Data Sets.... has some videos demonstrating it Pathfinder / Hero Lab Community FAQ - Lone Wolf Development Forums has some faqs about it there's a wiki...

facing opposition spellcasters is a huge source of tension, negate them easily and you lose that tension. spellcasters can have an absolutely huge impact on battles but if you make it too easy to negate them then a) you've got to rebalance encounters hugely b) you've got a player who's sitting...

I don't agree with your stated goal. If it's too easy or effective to counter spell then it becomes far too easy for PCs to be shut down which leaves the casters not having a positive effect on the game. Alternatively it's too easy for them to shut down the opposition casters which does away...

Giant In the Playground Games shows the problems with the idea...

I'd be interested in seeing them. I suggest that you start another thread for them. The problem with this theory is the difference in effect between the items could be huge. As an example I've got a level 12 fighter who has weapon focus, greater weapon focus, weapon specialisation, greater...

My suspicion is that you're probably being put up against too tough an opposition. If you could give a few of the encounters that you've been up against that would give us a better idea. Saying that there are a few other possibilities - not enough defensive items on the fighter. at 9th level...

mosquitos & tse-tse flies want some words with you...

Con bonus is added to hp at every level, so at first level you get Max hp + Con bonus (and possibly +1hp from favored class) So a fighter with 14 con could have 10 (max on d10) + 2 (con) + 1 (favoured class) = 13 hp at first level at second level you typically roll the die and add con (and...

I don't believe that's allowed

a single classed pathfinder character is probably more powerful than a single classed 3.5 character (with the disclaimer that there was enough stuff released for 3.5 that you could make severely broken characters with the right selection of spells and feats) How big the difference in power is...

As a developer I'll add a few thoughts from the trenches (about 12 years in the trenches as a developer & tester). And a hell of a lot of the work is in areas that you won't predict unless you've worked on similar things before. Data storage, speed of retrieval, changed requirements causing...

Those are the main methods. In this situation you might get different terms (which could well be part of the problem) I don't know the details of the company spinoffs and what was going on but I wonder if it was launched because somebody important was a D&D fan and was eager to get in at any...

Great, you're confronting Gugs, Shoggoths etc but you've got Flumphs on your side...

If you don't let people learn higher level spells it's pretty pointless for anything but a minimal dip if you are a spellcaster or you end up with a fair few spells that get cast all the time e.g. quickened shield, quickened divine favour if you do then a 1 or 2 level dip in a spellcasting...

His decision. If you want to talk to him point out that it slows down his spell acquisition and suggest that he look a few levels of spells in advance.

It depends on a lot of things. If you're a full spellcasting class you can basically rule the idea out for power and it would take almost a complete rewrite of the game to make it worth considering. A 50/50 ranger/rogue is pretty effective In other cases a dip can be well and truly worth it...

Wizard - Summoning Celestial Dire Tigers, waiting for being able to summon multiple Celestial Tyrannosaurus in another level...being a teleport conjuror means a lot of movement options. Lots of flexibility... I've got to say that a straight up fighter is also fun though. I'm keen to get to...

for a really quick solution just make them small

There are some package discounts, eg. when Bestiary 3 comes out you can but B1, B2 and B3 for $29.99 It isn't cheap but it does very nicely for most things (there are a few exceptions, Synthesist isn't covered yet for example) It's up to the individual to decide whether the cost is worth if for...

Huh, I hadn't noticed Fury's Fall before which makes a bit of a difference. Of course you now don't have reach from the whip so that makes it easier for things to get to you but such is life. Although now that I check I see you don't actually threaten with the whip. as I remember them that's a...
