There was some mention of Roll20. I was recently checking out the Roll20 PF2 offerings, only to find out that the current AP is not being released as a Roll20 product, and isn’t even slated for a release in 2020. That’s kinda worrying. Apparently the demand isn’t there, according to what the...

Eberron does have its own separate Limbo though; Kythri the Churning Chaos. Xoriat is the plane of nightmarish insanity and extreme creativity, related to mental and biological matters. Kythri is physical and material chaos, like Limbo, so it’s not something that drives you insane.

Yes, and Eberron was also the first D&D setting to incorporate the Faerie plane into the core cosmology. Both the Far Realm and the Feywild then became part of the core planar structure in subsequent editions.

I think one of Eberron’s strengths is that halflings aren’t just nomadic warriors on dinos. They can be that, plus House Jorasco or House Ghallanda halflings, or Boromar Clan criminals, or just another citizen of Thrane or Karrnath. Or a trailblazer in Xen’drik. Eberron eschews monocultures...

This is can quite drastically change how bards and sorcerers in particular can make use of downtime; also warlocks and rangers to a lesser extent. Have a week of downtime? You can make use of many utility spells you wouldn’t have learned without spell versatility. Speak with animals to learn...

At least the giant does instakill a commoner with a punch. 8 damage vs 4 hp.

Eberron aficionados would point out that the dwarf artificer would have to be a human with the Mark of Passage in order to drive the lightning rail train.

Thing is, at the moment with just the core book and bestiary out, one of PF2's strongest advantages when compared to 5e -- the customization of PCs -- isn't as big of a selling point as it could be. There's just not enough material available to really emphasize the vast array of options the...

The 3e cosmology stuff did assume that the Shadow Plane could link Material Worlds. Pretty sure it was talked about in Manual of the Planes.

Ok, I can see your point, but you're using invalid examples. Fire resistance potions exist. A ritual that grants fire resistance exists. Your character can get the best armor and take armor and defensive related feats and get magic items that make your AC much higher than the other PCs, and...

It really is amazing how important perception is. Just by changing the words "encounter" and "daily" to "short rest" and "long rest" respectively, you'll be more likely to attract players. It is pretty interesting that PF2 seems to have gone the at-will/encounter/daily (or unlimited/short...

The sheet is too busy. The colors are awful too. They need to re-do it ASAP.

The goblin scuttle ability is certainly a bit reminiscent of the 4e goblin's racial ability. It's not identical, but they're both off-turn actions in reaction to a trigger that allow the goblin to move 5 feet without provoking attacks.

Seems to be working fine now. Compendium was a little sluggish for a moment though.

I'd like enemies in PF2 to either not use PC spells (I guess not happening) or condense spell information in enemy stats so that I, a GM, don't have to refer to a separate spell entry to resolve the effects.

Dragon shamans and dragonfire adepts are people with dragon magic. 5e has the draconic bloodline sorcerer, so that's covered. 3.5 hexblades use curses, so do 5e warlocks.

Could the hallway be less narrow? Would it be possible to have 2 parallel entrances into an encounter space, which could be used to flank the opposition? Would it be reasonable for the enemies to take defensive positions in the room, possibly readying attacks or taking the total defense...

I think this is spot on and sometimes missed when discussing skill challenges. Interesting failures are incredibly important when implementing skill challenges.

But what happens when you're down to 0-1 surges, and the party has yet to make their way out of the enemy territory to safety?

The hex crawl part through the jungle was too monotonous. Every day the same checks. I'd make the whole experience more abstract (in terms of resources) and varied. Some folks are saying that the death curse is too imminent, that they want to see more of the jungle. But honestly, the large...
