I'm strongly contemplating the following Variant: BattlePriest/Priest: Priest - will have an expanded list, with a bunch more utility spells, some more blasty spells, a couple aoe cure/inflict spells. Loses medium proficiency. Slow BAB and d6 HD, Saves as Wizard. 3 Domains instead of Two, and...

Ooooooo. I'm intrigued. Are the Demonomicon and DSCC done the same way? or do they also have alot of *smack: take damage. your turn.*?

for my 3.x creature books: I have PF Bestiary Fiend Folio/Fiend Codex 1 & 2 Manual of Planes/Planar Handbook MM3.5/MM3.0 Monsters of Faerun If the monsters are not in those books then I'll have uses for them. Mechanical innovations don't interest me as much as unique encounters I can't...

Holy crap animation win! I have to show that to EVERYONE!

As mentioned by a few people early in this thread, it's a matter of playstyle. When I GM, or most of my friends GM, there is rarely the opportunity to rest after 1 fight. However one of the things I like most from anime, is that as characters get more desperate and are forced to press on, their...

I have a mountain of changes I put in. lots are variant rules I've seen in one place or another, that I use to replace the standard mechanics. Is it "fair" to the players: Yeah, I think so, I tell them I have alot of houserules, and if they don't like it they can find another game. Plus, if I...

Vampire the Masquerade Revised. - Use soak like armor in nWoD since soak mechanic is unbelievably slow. Aberrant - Didn't care for the setting much, but the system was alot of fun. My favorite superhero system. Always played with 8-10 nova points instead of 30 though.

O.O that thought makes my head hurt. lol I'd be more interested in seeing this one. It's terrible, and I imagine this is what he's talking about. Lots of cheese. Decent choreographed fights. As far as fan movies go, it's pretty good. better than the live action thundercats that someone made a...

I've recently been shown glittercomm and d20pro. Have people used these? Are there any virtual tabletops that other people recommend? One thing I'd like to see, is one that does NOT force the use of a grid, having circular templates and measuring ranges and distances in straight lines. (instead...

I'm hearing alot of "MM3 is the one you want". Someone mentioned the Dark Sun MM. I'm familiar with dark sun in 2e, and I read the update for it to 3e in dragon magazine. Whats the Dark Sun Monster Manual like? Could people give me some ideas of the really cool encounter monsters for solos...

Whoops, I was using the same total, but was using 16000, the difference between a +1 and a +3. 4k is the number I meant. Good catch O.O YOINK! This is a much better way to do it! One note though. sword of subtlety is is it +1/+4, or +1/+5? I'd have read that +4 when sneak attacking to be added...

Having seen a 4e monster stat block, I noticed they seem to be pretty easily used in a non4e game. I'm going to run a few 4e monsters in an upcoming pathfinder game. For those who don't know, while pathfinder is a 3e derivative game, the design philosophies are similar to 4e, and the monsters...

That was my general opinion as well, I'm mostly bringing this up just because of things I hear other people saying (including my players). I haven't been seeing it much, and I've been running PFRPG since 2 weeks after it came out, but most of my players won't play caster classes for whatever...

"Worse as in less damage ? Variety ? Buffs ? Self buffs ? Battlefield control ?" All of the above, combined. Add in utility spells like expeditions retreat, knock, and overland flight. That's why I said you may need to compare them by category to get a good solid answer. Yeah, I'm not...

And if you don't like the skirmisher, there's a spell-less ranger I like a bit better in Kobold Quarterly 11, that gets the following: ● Sneak attack that you can only use in favored terrain or against a favored enemy (slower progression). ● Fast Movement progression in Favored Terrain with...

The magic items formula isn't strictly followed. they use it as a starting point and then adjust up or down until it sounds reasonable. (I believe it says this in the GMG, but there's definitely some threads about it on the paizo boards). you said he only has a +1 weapon, which matches up to...

Branched from here: So here's what I want to know. Opinions, possibly with data to back it up. Wouldn't mind hearing comments from the official paizo people either. It would be interesting to hear from James or Jason particularly. Are the cleric and druid spell lists in PRPG worse than the...

The APG Summoner is considerably weaker in eidolon and in summoning ability, but has a selection of spells more comparable to the original beta summoner. Which beta are you using? "Final playtest"? or the original that they toned back considerably? I'm kindof just seeing a standardization that...

My comparison was brought on by the summoner. in very many ways, the druid is the existing analog for this guy. arguably you could make a summoner by refluffing the druid, giving a different list of same-cr animal companions and switching up the spell list a bit, and he'd be tougher/better in...

What I'm going for is more of a weighing of the pros and cons of nerfing druid and cleric (maybe oracle too). by either lowering bab/hd/armor proficiencies, or lowering their casting to that of the summoner, and then offering both options seperately. The alternative that I also think would be...
