Might I suggest you provide some more basic information about the game. I'd at the very least want to know: Starting level, resources allowed and basic npc knowledge about the world. For example, enchantment is the taboo spell school instead of necromancy or 10% of the world's humanoids are...

Assuming you are willing/allowed to take a 1 level dip into Summoner - Synthesist you can evolve tentacles (1d4+half Str/secondary attack). Your best option is to select the Biped form, which giving you 2 claw (1d4+Str/primary attack) attacks for free. Unfortunately, first level limits you to...

I agree with KahlessNestor, if the group has to work together, give them teamwork feats and/or other all around useful feats (Improved Initiative, Deflect Arrows, Side Step, Volley Fire) I'd at put a cap on how much a single stat can be boosted by the stones. A max of +5 seem reasonable to me...

Unfortunately, you are not giving us any information about your character's build to provide any kind of real help. Are you a fighter already? A rouge that wants to get in the middle of things? Also, what exactly do you want/need the prestige class to do? Is it to show off how evil your...

I could definitely see a lenient DM allowing the two not because of the tower shield difference, but instead due to the clause stating you can only gain these proficients back by spending feats. Personally, I see the situation as follows: [1] Armored Mage has you give up x and y. [2]...

3catcircus Dude what the hell. He's not complaining about those type of monsters for level 1. He just wants to make sure the character he builds starting at level 1 works towards his goal. Particle_Man Here are those 2 feats I mentioned in my previous post are Piercing Cold and Searing...

I am only aware of two ways to achieve this exclusively with Pathfinder. 1) As a wizard, choose to specialize in the sub-school of Admixture. While it doesn't allow for you to directly bypass a resistance/immunity, it does allow you to target one they either do not have, or the lowest (assuming...

1) From Paizo's FAQ I've personally played/ran games where the Reach evolution was allowed to effect all of one of the following categories [1] Tentacles [2] Claws: Limbs, Arms [3] Claws: Limbs, Legs. I've also played/ran games where the Reach evolution was allowed to effect manufactured...

Off topic but tangentially connected: The group I play with/run for always provides the DM with a list of goals. Each goal falls into at least 1 of the following categories: [1] Character, Short Term (These goals are ones the character hopes to achieve within the next month or so; Example-...

Unless your players generally love this time of game play, I would advise discussing the idea of secret goals with them as a group or individually. I would suggest having this discussion before they start generating a character/background. This way they can help you to create interesting goal(s)...

The Scry and Fry tactic is a great. Let your players use it as much as they want. That being said, your BBEG should have minions. Some of them should be able to use Scry and Teleport. There is nothing wrong with them stopping by and visiting your players and NPCs they want to protect...

Might I suggest Words of Power from Pathfinder. This variant spell casting is like a more dynamic use of the Dragon Shouts from Skyrim. Spells are broken up into 3 components; Target, Effect and Meta. A player starts off knowing all the Target Words and the Boost Meta Word, though not all of...

I would rule that as long as the following conditions are met, a slayer w/ assassinate could accomplish your scenario: 1) Talk with the target for at least 2 rounds (~12 seconds). 2) Be adjacent or able to 5-step to the target on the round the slayer intends to use the assassinate class...

Don't worry Carborundum, elephants have a +22 to oppose that trip [+10 Str; +4 for having four legs; +8 for being huge (+4 per size category above medium)]

Stronghold Builder's Guide outlines how one can go about converting gold pieces into a castle, fortress, dungeon, or whatever else you can imagine. One of the many many options is to make parts or all of a stronghold Burrowing, Crawling, Flying, Sailing and/or Submersing. It's noted in the book...

As long as you don't mind grabbing something from 3.5, the Libris Mortis provides the spell Awaken Undead. It doesn't give the undead levels itself, but does allow them to gain the levels when they acquire enough xp.

I'm going to be joining a friend's pathfinder game soon and the character I am going to be playing is all about preparing and eating wonderful and exotic foods. He has nearly 80 lbs of his Handy Haversack devoted to herbs, spices, cooking utensils, etc. What he doesn't have room nor carrying...

As Dog Moon said, UC provides generic basic rooms which are combined to make up a building. The location of the rooms does not effect the pricing of a building (ie having a 12 room building that is all on ground floor does not cost more/less than a two story house or a 12 story tower). Each of...

I see this question a lot. I'm going to quote myself from one of my previous answers:

I'm sorry, but with the exception of his anachronism, the plumbing/janitor, he had an acceptable plan for a face (or at least high Cha) based character. Instead of telling him nope, not going to work (or worse let him try it and watch it fall apart) it would have been better to inform him that...
