No, it isn't. But I prefer it to any edition of D&D (although I like 4E, too).

That's not a powergamer, that's a munchkin. And the winning move is not playing with them at all.

Considering that Paizo has taken a more firm stance on errata in recent times, I'm not sure if Pathfinder is going to remain a safe haven for those unhappy about WotC's errata. With the exception of the recent nerf to brass knuckles, I'm rather happy about this.

But that's not how it works (aside from Antagonize). And in my opinion, most enemies would be pretty stupid to attack a highly armored fighter while a bunch of guys behind the fighter attack him. If PCs can use tactics, NPCs can, too. They don't attack the fighter because he taunted them, they...

RPGs have gotten worse because they became less 'wargamey'? Marvelous.

Yes. That works. If there are choke points and everyone else is a ranged combatant. And the defender classes in 4E work nothing like WoW tanks.

Having a high AC does not make you a tank. If anything, it makes you a less interesting target than the rest of the party. You need to either bind the enemies or be a sufficient threat, otherwise they just ignore you and keep killing your party members. The Advanced Player's Guide has a few...

PCGen or Happy Camper's sheets. Much prettier than Hero Lab. Pathfinder Database - Happy Camper's Pathfinder Character Sheets

https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1DB6sOfbAzFmKVPgcyLWipTVqvWFjfDSv6v_YiGQb5Yw Should answer most questions about the magus. I would prefer Dex or Str, too, even at low levels.

Looks good. I'm not a fan of the repose domain, but I think it's better to play an inquisitor of a deity that fits your concept instead of choosing a god just because he offers the 'best' weapon and domain.

Here's a class guide I wrote: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19N7y6cKFLAr2KMMiKc8A1XG6R4iOmwaNFS7iAs17zyU/edit?hl=en_US

I'd say Dante and Milton were the primary inspirations, with a bit of Goetia. There isn't 'The Christian Hell', so it's kind of hard to say if it resembles something they believe in.

It should also be noted that penalties, while stacking with ability damage and drain, can't reduce an ability score below 1.

Ability damage and ability drain stack, ability penalties don't.

In my opinion wights aren't going to overpower a level 5-7 party, even if they outnumber them. Low attack, low AC, low hp. Their level drain still hurts character of that level, but they have to hit them first. Death Ward, a spell level 7 characters can have, grants total immunity against it...

Ultimate Magic has some serious issues. It's not a bad book, but it's not nearly as good as the APG. There are some really broken spells, as well as copypasted material. I do not regret picking it up, but I would not recommend it as strongly as I did with the APG.
