The aura doesn't specify friendly undead, it boosts all undead saving throws, including the saving throw enemy undead need to make to bypass your "can't attack" aura.

I'm still honestly amazed WotC managed to convince Hasbro to let the D&D product line lay almost profitless for 2-3 years.

In 4e, crossbows were actually really good weapons that held up all the way to level 30. In PF, crossbows sucked, partly because SKR admitted he personally hated crossbows(along with Monks) and said that wanting to be good with a crossbow Fighter is exactly the same as wanting to be good with a...

Wow, a game using game logic!? What a completely original and unique idea only to 4e...oh wait. And I'll take 4e's more grounded "game logic" over whatever gamey world 3.P lives in, where I can jump from orbit and faceplant on the ground, poke myself with a glowing stick a few times that...

Oh, and before I forget, another failing of Pathfinder is making fairly derp design choices at times. For example... http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/alternate-classes/antipaladin/archetypes/paizo---antipaladin-archetypes/seal-breaker-antipaladin-archetype ...one of the new Anti-Paladin...

+1 And this is partly the reason I don't see Pathfinder having much of a successful 2.0. Even their entire marketing campaign was based around "It's just like 3.5, so you never have to switch to 4e!", and that kind of drove them into a corner where they can't release a new improved system...

Or maybe after the first few times the attempts at inspiration just start sounding hollow and they're not quite as inspiring anymore? Seriously, you seem to be purposely making healing sound as ridiculous in 4e as possible.

Except for their flavor of healing, their abilities, their proficiencies, their feat list, their Paragon path choices, their Epic Destiny choices, and their class features. But yeah, they're exactly the same if you ignore everything that makes them different. Even for healers they play...

"Paizo is outselling someone who hasn't made new products for at least 2 years." Ok....and this impressive because...?

Just a quick list of my biggest PF issues. I might expand it more if I have time. 1. Doing the impossible and making the caster/martial imbalance even worse than 3.x. a.Partially from new better spells(Fickle Winds is Wind Wall with all of the downsides removed, Bestow Grace of the Champion is...

Just a few nitpicks. 1. I keep seeing how 4e is really video gamey, but no one every actually explains what about it makes it "video gamey."(and last time I asked someone, it just ended with them raging at me for something then putting me on ignore). Only thing that's ever brought up is...

Because they're doing something that could be accomplished equally well by a few hirelings, a summoned creature(s), or a wall. And your difficulty with constructs is noted, though it mostly shows you should have prepared more general purpose spells or at least had a few scrolls. Constructs are...

Competent costs rarely, if ever, keep casters in check because costless ones are covered by component pouches and/or Eschew Materials(and forcing the Wizard to keep track of them/gather them stalls the game and still makes the game revolve around the party making sure the Wizard can cast the...

My bad, fixed.

FTFY 3.x is probably the only edition of D&D I can safely say had completely subpar design with only 2-3 classes that were actually worth playing by design. 4e at least had good class balance and enough variety between the classes where you could play pretty much any party combination and...

+1 3.x(aka, Caster Edition) does anything except Super Magic High-Fantasy poorly given how much magic your average party has access to.

Casters still wreck face with most enemies you'd fight at level 1. Color Spray and Sleep are good Save-or-Lose spells for the first few levels, and they can make scrolls to avoid having to rest for a while.(average 70 start gold, level 1 scrolls cost ~12gp to make each and take about 2 hours)...

Most popular fix I see on the Traditional Gaming section of 4chan basically boils down to.. 1. Ban Core 2. Replace all casters with their Psionic counterparts 3. Use the Book of 9 Swords for noncasters.

Define "fighting"

So "More Damage: The Class" does more damage and can one-shot things through damage. Again, I fail to see the problem unless non-stop fighting and killing everything is literally the only way to get through the adventure path, in which case I'd still prefer almost any spellcaster over a Fighter...
