    Chaotic Monks - how to get them?

    I know that there's the Martial Artist Archetype, is there another way?

    Memorable in character amusing moments

    The party was having to make artistic performances of some sort to try and impress a Lillend Azata. My 7 int, 7 cha fighter tried to do it by burping the national anthem. Anybody else got something they'd like to share?

    Race Creation Help

    a) are you sure you're in the right forum (this is Pathfinder) and favoured class doesn't work that way anymore (any character picks a favoured class rather than it being racially based b) as I understand it there are no level adjusted character races in Pathfinder c) +6 charisma results in +3...

    Check I haven't screwed up

    Such as knowing that the GM will be willing to sunder a wand, steal a ring, arrest you and take away your equipment etc resulting in you being crippled until you can replace it as was pointed out the last time I saw you raising these points (in...

    Have I shot my character in the foot? (Help with Wizard/Oracle build)

    multiclassing for a full spellcasting progression is generally a loss in power. As a wizard going mystic theurge you're trading 2 levels of wizard spells and 4 caster levels for the oracle spells. A wizard 3/oracle 4 isn't a particularly strong character compared to a wizard 7 and that's the...

    Favored class bonuses: give both hp & rank

    My recollection from the last time I played AD&D (almost 20 years ago so take with a grain of salt) you started out as a multi-classed character and could never add a class later on (there was dual classed but it was a different system which let you stop advancing in 1 class to pick up a new...

    Clarifying some rules from Psionics Unleashed/PF Core

    There's a huge difference between knowing the rules, being a rules lawyer, being a power gamer and being a munchkin. Grouping them all together doesn't help much. Some of the best roleplayers I've seen were largely power gamers as well. I can be a bit of a rules lawyer (but I also point things...

    Clarifying some rules from Psionics Unleashed/PF Core

    Is it surprising that when posting on a Pathfinder forum people here tend to like Pathfinder? Knowledge of a game is pretty much orthogonal to imagination, somebody can know the game back to front and still be extremely imaginative or they can not know a game and still just want to hit things...

    Trying the Gunslinger!

    You will have to clear revolvers with the GM. They are advanced guns and are not allowed under the default rules. Allowing full attacks as a gunslinger does away with a lot of the balancing factors for the class so it is fairly likely to get the class banned if you just go in with 2 revolvers.

    Clarifying some rules from Psionics Unleashed/PF Core

    I recommend that either you swap to a more rules-lite game or you do at least a reasonable read of the rules. Buying the books is the best way but you can probably get by if you read the srd which has most of the core rulebook, APG, UC & UM not really, if they don't understand the rules...

    Advanced Race Guide Playtest

    Good luck with that. No point based system is ever going to be perfect so it's always going to need a GM looking over it.

    Tier list for PF classes, or summary of each?

    You've got a bit of versatile in design or versatile in play. as an example a fighter can be designed to do different things but once you've picked ability scores & feats it can be tough to change options. A cleric can pick a new set of spells overnight but no class can change their skills and...

    Tier list for PF classes, or summary of each?

    It's partly a matter of flexibility, the Paladin, Fighter, Ranger... can hit things and do damage well (in different ways) but they can't do as much as a full progression spellcaster in other ways. A Paladin gets good defences and can hit things hard. There's also the point that smite is vs 1...

    Help with selecting a character:

    I don't think any of Inquisator, Paladin or Cavalier are all that well suited to dual wielding, it's very feat intensive. Saying that it might work o.k. when smiting for a Paladin as you've got a bonus for each hit. It looks like half-vampire is probably Dhampir Dhampir - Pathfinder_OGC so yeah...

    Items charges starting at 100

    If you're worried about balance just double the price and scale it. the use magic device levels you're suggesting mean that low level characters have absolutely no chance of using them so you can't place a wand with a few charges as part of low level treasure unless you enjoy being a sod to the...

    What if?

    And they changed it in 3.5 for reasons. At 1 hour/level it lasted far too long and d4+1 meant that meta-magic feats like maximize and empower could be used on it (and I believe that empower could be stacked...)

    Tier list for PF classes, or summary of each?

    Not having played a lot of pathfinder yet this is a bit of theorycraft but I think it's pretty reasonable, although some classes require more optimisation than others and they can all be wrecked by bad builds... (not in order in tiers) 1st tier Wizard, Cleric 2nd tier Sorceror, Druid, Oracle...
