    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Falling Damage

    Huh. So you're thinking that any fall of ten feet or less deals 1d6 points? I've always had less than 10' as no damage, from 10' to 20' 1d6, 20' to 30' to 2d6, and so on. Are you suggesting that progression should be one step upwards?

    Fortitude Saves for Multi-Class

    Fair enough. I don't think it's a bad idea, I just didn't like the added bookkeeping. I had two or three players who just couldn't get it through their heads, so I went back to RAW calculations more out of annoyance than anything else. It's a pain being the only one in a group bothered by this...

    Ideas for handling a Shadow Demon's attempt to interfere with a vision?

    I'd do a battle in the center of the mind thing. The creature comes after the cleric while he's meditating and enters his mind. The scene shifts to somewhere the cleric feels safe, but twisted to be dark and sinister. The shadow demon approaches in the guise of someone the cleric trusts, then...

    I've certainly used ninja-ing in a verb just like that. I like it. Gregor, thanks for the input. I really want to comment but don't know if it's appropriate before the other judges weigh in. WildGazebo, I wouldn't have known you had any troubles if you hadn't said so - your story ended up...

    Cost of Vampiric weapon property?

    I think the version I posted in my last post above works fine, even in an AoMF. If it's an immediate action to get the HP, you'll get 1d6 per turn if you hit. You could also do free action once per turn if you want to be generous to classes that use a lot of swift/immediate actions. That'd...

    Fortitude Saves for Multi-Class

    Multiple classes with similar saves will get you some high saving throws, that's true. It will also tend to cripple saves that don't overlap. BAB will generally suffer as well. In Pathfinder with the way class skills work, multiple classes will generally be very good for skills, especially if...

    Pathfinder 1E What are your Pathfinder houserules?

    We use bloodied as a condition. It doesn't do anything by itself, but it does give the GM a good way of telling people how hurt the enemies are - you can tell if somebody is bloodied at a glance without an action of any kind. The guy who normally runs the game has suggested that he'd be open to...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Falling Damage

    You don't take any damage at all if the fall is less than 10', as near as I can tell. #2 is mostly right - the only problem with it is that it should say "when they fall 10 feet or more". You take 1d6 points of damage per 10' fallen. If you jump down intentionally, 1d6 points of damage are...

    Races you play the most

    Mostly humans, with dwarves as a fairly strong second place, then a smattering of other options. Most of my favorite characters have been dwarves or human.

    House Fairies!

    There's a part of my setting that includes them, as the whole region is run by fey. A magical disaster led to a rift to the fae realms, and a group of fae nobles came through and started playing at nobility, ruling the (mutated) humans in the area. In that region, most homes have a house...

    Ah, that is very good to know. Now I won't have to check QUITE as often. Thanks to all the judges for the hard work!

    Here's my contribution for match 4. It came out a bit longer than I intended - 3053 words. Dr. Heinrich watched the ant as it crawled back down the sand-lined glass tunnel toward the nest, its distended abdomen nearly tipping the creature over with each careful step. ((PICTURE #1)) The...

    Mine will be up momentarily - had to abuse my admin powers and poke a hole in the firewall at work to access this site. I didn't want to try and wrangle a huge post like Ceramic DM on my tablet.

    Character Choices for a Newbie

    Charismatic plus spellcasting suggests bard to me. Chaotic Neutral is a pretty common bard alignment. Human is always a good race for pretty much any class, but feat-starved bards and rogues benefit even more from the bonus feat than classes that get lots of bonus feats. Bards in Pathfinder...

    Streamlining Traits

    It's clearly one of the most powerful skills, but not something I think is so powerful as to cross it off the list allowed for Prodigy. I don't know if I'd include the +1 for any skill, though, not just Perception. The +3 bonus from class skill is good as it is. Maybe add the +1 in if you...

    Got 'em. I've got some ideas percolating about where to go with my story; it's looking weird and fun. Love the pictures! Wild Gazebo, you're going down!

    Cost of Vampiric weapon property?

    These are both really good points. Amulet of Mighty Fists allows it to apply to too many attacks in a round, which makes it overpowered even at +3 or +4. How about... hm. You could either have it be something that triggers on a critical hit, like Bodyfeeder, or requires an action of some type...

    A warforged druid who can't use any class features because he's made of metal.
