    Average final party level?

    The last game-end I was involved with was a party that TPKed at 10th, due to a vampire (and apparently also a couple of other behind-scenes villains we never met who were watching us) that Dominated or Magic Jarred half the party, and of the remaining 3 characters (one of which was mine), the...

    Adventuring Classes: For a Few Denarii More (now taking requests)

    How is the Musketeer different from the Gunslinger that we know is coming in Ultimate Combat? Is it a Medium-BAB class like a gun-toting Rogue? The "skilled" notation in the class blurb suggests that, but I thought it worth clarifying.

    The What Is It? Contest 5

    But... how would a flashlight, some tape, and a cheesy rubber mask be used to make THAT thing?!?

    Introducing Psionics (To both the players and me)

    Given that this Blue is controlling a tribe of gobbos, is there a specific reason you're not considering Telepath for his specialty? Just curious- it is the most obvious way to go, so perhaps you're trying to avoid cliches. :) Admittedly, both Shaper and Egoist (given their special Discipline...

    Pathfinder 1E Best Paizo adventure path

    The thread in question (once you decipher the typos that started the jokes) specifically asks which AP shows off Pathfinder, so to be fair, I don't think the first five APs should count- they were written for 3.5E, which is a slightly different game. That said, I myself am most familiar with...

    Pathfinder 1E What Adventure bath best shows of Pathfinder?

    See? SEE?!? Oooo, I hope he isn't too soapy! Just enough to cover his gear, please, not the treasure chest. ;)

    Supplemnt Buy Path?

    Given how chock-full of new goodness it has, much like the APG you got that spectacular price for, Ultimate Magic is likely to become essential in the future, IMO. It isn't currently, but that's mainly because it's so new I think- people are still checking it out and seeing what works and what...

    spellcasting dip for monk

    I saw a guy do one with Inquisitor/Zen Archer Monk to build basically a super-archer. He got bored with the character after three sessions though, so I didn't see it very long. What I did see was fairly impressive until the tanks got up to melee and started whacking things to pieces. Dude had by...

    Pathfinder 1E What Adventure bath best shows of Pathfinder?

    You all realize, this is now going to show up as a joke product next year on April 1st, like that My Little Pony race guide did this year.

    Introducing Psionics (To both the players and me)

    Unlike the previous two posters, I'll assume that your references to psionic critter names mean that you've read the Pathfinder psionics rules- whether that means on d20pfsrd.com, or you have the actual book they came from (Dreamscarred Press's "Psionics Unleashed.") That said, I had lots of...

    The What Is It? Contest 5

    'Bout freaking TIME we got some more entries. :p:lol: And covering still more creature types, no less! Arthraktus could even arguably cover two, since it's readily apparent it has some Vermin traits. So we now have Aberration, Construct, Outsider, and Plant... and of course, any of those could...

    Question on Poisons

    It is 1 hit unless otherwise specified, yes. This is why the Sticky Poison Alchemist Discovery is a cool ability- it lets you get a lot more bang for your buck, so to speak.

    "Proofreading" my first encounter

    Others have pointed out other small mistakes, but I'm going to point these out. First, Improved Initiative doesn't grant a racial bonus, just a bonus. It's untyped. Second, the Goblin just has +2 from Dex and +4 from the feat, so his number should have been 26 (not that it mattered, since he...

    Bestiary 3 and Advanced Race Guide Announced

    I, OTOH, have a world built around extra-powerful races, such that I don't use the Core Rules racial traits at all- they're not nearly good enough. As an example, basic Humans in my setting get +2 to every score before you add the "+2 to anything." Races aren't powerful on their own, they're...

    4th Edition and the Immortals Handbook

    Correct. Honestly, I'd have to say that some of UK's recent posts suggest he's lost touch with the 3.5E mechanics and wouldn't be very helpful in a conversion effort- at least for the mechanical parts of it. The RP part, of course, and the background of the beasts in case we need to just invent...

    What would the Lord of Nightmares be?

    I've seen all three Slayers series myself (have 'em on VHS), so I'm confident in saying that both First One of Entropy and Demiurge work for the Lord of Nightmares- you could argue for either of them based on what happens. So, use whichever one works better for the game, I'd say- I myself would...

    Magus Arcane Spell Chance Faliure

    By the RAW, Spellstrike says nothing about how the spell is cast- it just says that Touch spells can be delivered through a weapon. The rules reasoning behind why the Arcane Spell Failure Chance exists is, armor restricts movement, so the Somatic component can be flubbed. Nothing says this only...

    The What Is It? Contest 5

    I can't take credit for Goetic Blood; that's from the Immortal's Handbook: Ascension book. I've used it before with other creatures, so I immediately thought of it when I saw this thing. Running a game that goes Epic and stays there for five years (eventually going into high Divine territory...

    The What Is It? Contest 5

    Very nice entry there, Steel Draco! I didn't think of coastal, but in hindsight it fits the picture perfectly (plus, of course, the sub-critters do almost all look aquatic, don't they?). Aboleth tie-in for the perfect reason for such a weird Thing to exist. [golf clap] :cool:

    The What Is It? Contest 5

    A note on using the Pseutyrrassyl Of course, a reading of the flavor text I gave my beastie should make it clear that I intended this from the start to be a Far Realm monster- and properly speaking, that means that the template granted to its summoned critters, not to mention those lost to the...
