Salvageable - no. There are way too many issues. In essence, this is gimped down Spring Attack... and given that Spring Attack (under PFRPG) is just a single melee attack, you'd need something with awesome mode of movement to make it shine, like a dragon with a Fly-By, or a Barbarian with at...

For that you'd need to be a spellcaster. However, the said Barbarian is 13th level now, so he brings a lot more goodies to the table now. It's just that these two made him shine spectacularly several times already. Regards, Ruemere

There is an easy fix for this. In my games a player is not allowed to talk during his turn to other players. Browsing books and spell lists is also forbidden... unless they declare that they spend action or delay. Talking to me, the GM, is free within reasonable limits. Out of turn, the...

Strength Surge + Intimidating Glare. Thanks to these two powers the Barbarian PC shines at controlling BBEGs. "A grappled character who attempts to cast a spell must make a concentration check (DC 10 + grappler's CMB + spell level), or lose the spell." This particular Barbarian reaches DC 46...

Rage powers make Barbarians much more versatile than Fighters. For example, the Barbarian PC in my party specializes in locking down enemies using grapple... He does a lot of damage, too, but when the party needs to shut down BBEG he does just that. Regards, Ruemere

(imho) The last three paragraphs should be stricken out. I do not mind writers mining history for material, I would prefer them to avoid depicting great tragedies in terms of possible gain. For better treatment of this sensitive topic, you may want to check Charnel Houses of Europe: The Shoah...

Is there anyone with a copy of the book in question to confirm questionable content? This is Internet. Things tend to get overblown here. Regards, Ruemere

My advice is to restrict use of mats only for combats involving larger number of units. Otherwise a battlemat is likely to slow you down and restrict your imagination. For example, fights taking place in a slowly revolving (along horizontal axis) building or on a surface of colossal sculpture...

Banewarrens by Monte Cook. This is probably one of the greatest dungeon campaigns. It's 3.0, so you need to replace monsters with their PFRPG counterparts (with the exception of a two or three creatures, you can do that easily, as Monte's forte is the use of MM1 creatures). Due to the nature of...

Interesting. It may be just that the cleric player knows most of the tricks. In my games there is a single cleric in a party of six, so she needs to reserve a healthy bite of her repertoire to keep others alive. Regards, Ruemere

Probably the best idea would be to split archive into smaller chunks, around 100MB each (separate and complete subsets of the original archive), and then gather all chunks into a single batch torrent. And just put the torrent on piratebay.org Regards, Ruemere

I happen to run games for 13+ level characters. Off the top of my head, stuff for martial classes: - reworked _all_ martial classes - critical masteries for fighters (and bravery special ability) - high level auras and mercies for paladins... aura of justice is very powerful - Greater Willpower...

Concerro is right. Links: Rapid shot feat at Pathfinder PRD Manyshot feat at Pathfinder PRD Explanation: 1. Rapid shot and Manyshot can be used during the same turn. 2. Both feats can be used only during full attack action. 3. Rapid shot grants you one free attack (i.e. at your highest...

Lovely. Still, I have two reasons I like rattling the dice - it rattles my players, too, and, since I have pretty good memory for little numbers, saves me time on actually rolling dice. Regards, Ruemere

It's a matter of managing responsibilities. Delegating a job to a player can produce time savings, improving GM's availability. If I do it in a nice way, the player is likely to find it rewarding - she (or he) is likely to experience greater degree of immersion and freedom. On the other hand, if...

Descriptions of feats and skills use "you" to refer to the owner of the character, i.e. to the player. Quoting from Pathfinder PRD, Skill Descriptions: Aside from the quote above, my personal style of gamemastering leans heavily toward the players taking initiative. My players know that I...

I believe you need a lighter system. D20 works fine within D20 parameters, but rewriting it to suit a particular purpose is a monumental task. It's easy to introduce some adjustments, it's altogether different issue to rebalance the whole game. My suggestions: - check Savage Worlds - it's...

I take it that somewhat more detailed description is needed :) Here we go... Several things I forgot to mention: The stuff described above took roughly 3 hours to run, mostly due to various parties maneuvering. We used Chessex Megamat to gauge distances, however it was not sufficient to cover...

Kindly note remaining part of the paragraph: You can also use this skill to determine when “something is up” (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone's trustworthiness. Regards, Ruemere
