Indeed. And since he's a monk, his large size also knocked up his unarmed attack damage dice, which of course increase with class levels as well. Combine that with my refusal to use Arcane Mark to activate Spell Combat, and we're talking about a solid 3 levels in his shadow. :p That said, as...

It is indeed constant. I believe he's troll-blooded. He pretty much gave up any racial advantage in exchange for large size I believe.

Our group has two engineers, me (magus) and the artificer, who has a sentient toolbox. It may be that the artificer's toolbox could fill the role of sleepless tinkerer, I don't know if it gets access to the artificer's skills. Even so...I love your idea. Our group is likely going to have a...

Actually our airship is held aloft by magic and steered by propellers. Apparently most airships in Eberron (our game is an Eberron/homebrew hybrid) are powered by bound elementals, though ours won't be since my magus objected to using an enslaved sentient being as a living engine. Still...

I think you are using the wrong system for what you want. Instead, consider Call of Cthulu for a grimmer, grittier game. :)

Our party has recently refurbished an airship, and I'm concerned that--given that we have rich and powerful organizations among our enemies--it's only a matter of time before we encounter enemy airships and have to deal with them. I know there won't be much in the way of actual airship defenses...

Our group is currently level 4, and so far I definitely haven't found it to be so. If anyone in the group could be said to be overpowered it'd be the large-sized monk, who's been built to combine reach and combat reflexes to devastating effect. Not that I think he's actually OP, but at our...

Ah, well. Guess ENWorld isn't very active when it comes to Pathfinder. Wonder what all the ENWorlders are playing these days. 4e probably.... *shudder*

So in our group's current campaign, a modified Eberron, I'm playing a non-archtyped magus who just hit 4th-level. I have to admit the road up to this point has been harsh, with me mostly taking a backseat to the group's large-sized reach-focused strength-built monk. He hits anything that moves...

Extremely overpowered. Spellpower is not additive. Which is to say the power of a sixth-level spell is not equal to six 1st-level spells. Not only is there much greater action economy, but save DCs are much higher, and effects can be available at higher levels that are impossible at lower...

Nice. I'm trying to avoid 1/day arcana as much as possible, though I can see how that one time could be significant. I've currently got Quicken Spell on my list, though not until very very late in my magus' career. Then again, I do plan on making use of rods eventually (when money permits) so...

Thanks for taking the time Soramain! Here are a few questions to start off. :) 1. How significant was your weapon damage at mid- to high-levels (let's say 8th+)? A poster on the paizo forums made a convincing argument for the magus' melee damage being almost completely irrelevant to his...

It seems like this would create something like Ultima's Eight Virtues, where people would dedicate themselves to an Idea, and by embodying that Idea, gain power from it. Clerics and Paladins would then be those so in-tune with their particular Ideas that they can perform miracles.

Neat! Though moot for me, as my PC is already in play at level 1. He's a human; I went with the +2/+2 stat bonuses variant and put them in dex and int. :cool:

Not going bladebound. The campaign is centered around an airship (by my request, I've always wanted to do a game with airships, :D) and my magus will be designing/wielding a gunblade. I have gone back and forth on Familiar. A hawk familiar would be pretty sweet, but according to the prd you...

*nod* I hadn't considered that I really won't be regularly casting higher level spells defensively. And Quickened spells don't require casting defensively. Hrm... It is indeed third party, one of the third party arcana listed on the d20prd. Basically it's an arcana version of Combat Casting...

I definitely find it helpful, so thank you! Do you mostly only find yourself needing to cast Shocking Grasp in melee range? I've been looking at the DC requirements of Concentration, and even with Combat Casting and a 19 int it seems to take a while to get the failure chance to drop to zero...

How exactly was your magus able to be the group's blaster as well as melee? Wand usage? I'd love to know, since our group only has me and an alchemist as arcane casters, and neither of our clerics appears to be focused on spellblasting atm.

So many of a magus' pool abilities last but a single round that I can easily see burning through points quickly. I guess I'll have to wait and see how it all plays out. I'd love for what you're saying to turn out to be true for me as well. :) Nice. But how I see it is this: wyroot means...

This is how I've handled it in the past.
