Yes. Inventors start with one of 3 different 'innovations'. They either get special armor, a special weapon, or a construct - a mech ally. Note what's missing here is probably what you want: armor that can switch to being an ally. You get either or.

Not on that one no. But the Core remasters were more like a new edition. Just like with DnD 2024 - WotC and Paizo both are now 'scared' of the edition word. Technically these are D&D 5.5 and Pathfinder 2.5 - but don't tell the folks in marketing or the C-suite that. Over on the DnD side, I've...

It kind of is. If you already owned the PDF of the book pre-remaster, you got a new remaster copy when this came out. I do NOT like that they're labeling errata level changes as a remaster. I do get why they're updating. From Paizo's POV the most important change in the book is on page 237, the...

I've started playing an Alchemist in a Pathfinder 2E Tian Xia game and yeah; gotta blaze up with the herb. ;) I love describing her alchemical concoctions as if they were herbal Chinese medicine remedies. Used to hang out with a bunch of Suwon University students of Chinese medicine back when...

Yeah this is a major point not just for an IP jealous company like GW. But any small house wanting to ensure it doesn't lose control of it's IP to someone else's server farm and content policies. As companies change their policies or try to change contracts - that can be an issue for a publisher...

I pay nothing for the rules in Foundry with Pathfinder 2E. The only thing I'd have to pay for is if I buy their kit for a published adventure. But I've also imported published adventures they didn't have a kit for on my own, and it wasn't all that hard - just a time issue. I have bought the VTT...

That's probably about right and roughly sums up why I dislike rules light and prefer crunchier more defined systems. You've given a fairly honest evaluation of the side of the table that is not yours, which is a good thing to see. I've played both rules light and rules heavy systems and for...

Being a Pathfinder 2E player/GM and NOT a DnD 5.5 player/GM I often see this exact same discussion, but in the opposite direction. Over in my game we have the balance problem being casters are often seen as too weak. I think both games having the same problem but from opposite sides of the...

I'm for Ncuti Gatwa - though they'd have to drag him away from Dr Who to do it and I'd much prefer to keep him there. My number two pic isn't on anyone's radar. Kymani Marley. Son of Bob Marley - he's a Jamaican actor and musician. He's on my list because Ian Fleming who was the creator of Bond...

This is a weird backwards thread to me. So... I disliked roll20. It has a UI I just didn't care for, and having to buy the rulebooks was weird when I can get all the rules online at archives of nethys free. I suppose the DnD folks have a free site somewhere too. It's also a subscription. And I...

We all have our different preferences. I'm just shy of saying I wouldn't play PF2E WITH free archetype. Essentially the opposite perspective from yours. That's a different topic from this one though. For any of these variants - including the bonus one that more or less replaces how magic...

As others note, we'd need examples of what you consider interesting. I have a perspective that the moment you apply a system to magic it's no longer magical. But that's informed from some years in my youth among occult groups - those looney folks who believe magic is real and have the mood...

I strongly disagree. I come at this from three paradigms informing the stance I'll outline. MMO tactical group gameplay, being a veteran, and the quirky one: being a fan of classic shows like Scooby Doo. Even a civilian informed genre show like 'The A-Team' has elements of what I feel is...

It was the 'mostly' the opposite for me. While I do have a nasty RPGHorrorstory on reddit, tRPGs in general were some of the first times I met / dealt with white people that were not aggressive or violent towards me. That was around high school age in the mid 1980s. It coincided with me moving...

My 'You really gotta have these mods' list for Pathfinder 2E in Foundry would be: PF2E HUD PF2E Workbench PF2E Graphics PF2E Toolbelt. PF2E Assistant You kind of have to have that list or it's just painful to play in your games. PF2E Graphics will want you to get a 'JB2A' mod as well - that...

That has to be one of my absolute favorite mods. Note that it is super configurable. When you first install it it puts spam icons everywhere, a HUD down at the bottom lest, some pre-configured dice buttons, a clock, and messes up the location of the macro bar. And then it adds a second combat...

Pathfinder is a team game rather than a solo game. So there is a lot of value in introducing people as a team and having them work out plans both in and out of combat together from the outset. That's probably the core difference between Pathfinder 2E and all the things I hear about DnD. Granted...

EDIT: I see folks mentioned this guy above by name. Yeah, this here is the first in the series for Lunatic Dice: There's a "new guy" (new to being 'the PF2E Foundry' guy), for the pathfinder folks out there, who's got some really good videos. He's recently done 2 D&D videos also. But he's...

Same answer of 5 I'm on my third attempt to type out why but every time it got so much toxic stuff and noted about sexism and racism that has been a theme in both TSR and WotC that it'd freak a whole lot of people out... That tree's been rotten since the seed was planted. Plus the game system...
