    Oracle--what am I missing?

    Oracles tend to be more support, buff/debuff then actual blasters To this end, a life oracle will slowly edge out a cleric (Channel for channel energy, Energy body for easy self heal/others without a spell, life link: you sit back, heal yourself and the damage others takes is sent to you...

    Pathfinder 1E Could Pathfinder take D&D's place...

    I think it comes down to this statement which, admittedly, only holds true 70-80% of the time: Those who have played older editions, or started before 4E was introduced prefer PF to 4E. Those who started since 4E began prefer 4E to PF 4E is easy to get into from a complete outsider's...

    Mounts, How do they work?

    If that is your stance, Rineran shouldn't even have a roc as their companion. It is also from a splat book (Bestiary) and not one of the "normal" ranger companions. I would put it to your DM this way, they are allowing the Roc as the companion, can they also allow a feat that really only makes...

    Mounts, How do they work?

    You can use the roc as a mount, but if you are meduim sized, you have to wait till the roc is large size. This means level 10 is when you can ride it. There is another option that will cut some time out of how long till you can ride it. Boon Companion - Pathfinder_OGC It will put your...

    Aasimar's Favored Class

    So then the question is, do they have any special favored class bonuses. For example, an additional use of a domain power for a Cleric Aasimar What about other races in the beastiary? The Inferti, Tengu, Sylph, Merfolk and the rest of them or do they all have to take the +1hp or +1sp

    Help with Dwarven Cleric

    I would recommend going with pharasma and taking the Death and healing domains. you already know to use your spells to buff/debuff, good. Your channel ability does fall a bit behind of damage, but it is a very powerful bomb vs undead (say what you want, but 20-30 damage to 4-5 targets is good)...

    It's a trap! Builds that seem good, but...

    To enable a main feature, well, sorry fighter, your magic weapon maces you a trap. Sorry wizard, your spells make you a trap. I dont think it is all that bad to spend money to enhance a main feature of your class. Also, I do know the goggles and the archtype do not work together, thus those...

    It's a trap! Builds that seem good, but...

    Well, depending on the level, invisibility is cheap Vanish is about 1k for a wand 2nd caster level Greater invisibility cast on you will do it even better Then there is a Stealth check+a good distance, ie, maximum sneak attack range for a sniper variant rouge(30+10 per 3 levels) (any ideas...

    It's a trap! Builds that seem good, but...

    The trap depends on the crit range of the weapon. I know there are only a few weapons with it, but say this weapon crits on a 15-20/x2 (keen or some other effect). In this case, the vital strike is the trap. If you VS, and crit, you get 12d6. If you VS and do not, you get 8d6. If you Full...

    Animal Companion Questions

    Bird can make a good scout, but the wizard's familiar is always gonna be better at it You are also almost always gonna be better off with the leadership feat for a combat buddy. Get a fighter, he is 2 levels below you(assuming no big penalties to leadership score), get a companion, he is 3...

    How to punish a metagamer?

    You are making Charm Person out to be "turn person into slave" All you get is you think the caster is your trusted friend and ally. So your trusted friend and ally comes up to you and says, "Hey bud, the orphanage I work at needs some green to stay open, can you spare anything?" you look and...

    How to punish a metagamer?

    Charm does not control anyone, and even says you can not control them it says So the fighter would still have no idea, making the throw or not, that he was charmed. The wizard cast the spell, asks nicely and the fighter willingly agrees. Then the player, unhappy that his control of his...

    Grimores

    well, for the book and all its spells, treat each spell as a scroll, add up all the costs for the ritual, treat it as a wonderous item. Rules are in the back of the core book. Work out what it does, if it emulates any spell, if it gives a bonus that sorta stuff and use what it gives you from...

    A baddy for your concideration.

    the Worm that Walks template is towards the back of the beastiary 2 and has no "worm smite" ability. It is a template for evil spellcasters The lesser version (not in the beastiary) may have it, but I do not know

    Throwing teammates (as a tactic vs flying enemies)

    well, considering you are having trouble with a flying enemy, I am assuming no one can fly so, your idea: being thrown at the fly guy First, the barbarian needs to pick you up (a strength check, and just because you are light enough to be his light load, does not mean he automatically can)...

    A baddy for your concideration.

    First Impression: Worm smite seems too good. I see it is a CR 20 creature, but the 11d8 still strikes me as excessive. Maybe 8d8, ref for half and they do not cover you, and I suppose you could up the DC to 30 other than that, it looks good

    Challenging without killing

    well, if you wanna keep a challenge, follow this: The harder they hit: the more HP monsters should have The lower their AC: the lower damage OR chance to hit should be That is probably the best policy to follow, low HD, low dmg, high HP, moderate to hit You can also try combat manuvers...

    Arcane Archer as a Magus Archetype

    its not quite the opposite of close arcana though, the way Imbued Shot works is you have to use the spell and attack on same target. Close arcana plus Spell Combat allows you to say, disrupt undead and hit another creature next too you without the attack for a ranged touch The "long range...

    Arcane Archer as a Magus Archetype

    I like it. I too was disappointed at the lack of ranged ability the magus recieved. Only thing to add would be the reverse of close arcana (turn melee touch spells into ranged)

    Pathfinder 1E How about a Pathfinder CRPG?

    i know it would be a lot of work, but I would have to see/play before I would pay money for it. Would it be like an MMO or more like a PBP kinda deal it could be fun, but then again a lot of things that should be turn out not to be
