Speaking as a GM/Player in a group that both loves things to be "fluffy" according to lore and be as optimized as possible.. 1. One of my favorite GMs and I agree that Traits are the most broken thing in PF. If you allow any at all, don't allow adopted to take the human feat, and only allow one...

Since there are so many long time vets of all flavors of role playing, and all editions, I am curious what you all recommend in terms of learning to build a world. I am indeed considering building a world for my group (although I am not currently GMing). Since I am a player and not a GM at the...

My group loves to use the dry erase mats and the pawns that Paizo produces (mostly the beginner box, but our collection is expanding.) We usually draw actual maps, but recently the other GM has taken to drawing on the fly as needed. For this campaign it appears to work. But our group is heavy on...

This should be.. interesting. Can't say I am a fan of the concept. However being relatively new I suppose I can't really complain.

I have seen outstanding work done with Green Stuff (a la Warhammer 40k and the DakkaDakka forum.) That might not be a horrible option. It is able to be formed but will hold its shape like plastic when finished. Aside from that I would definitely say draw it out first and plan, PLAN, PLAN!

If you include arms and armor, as well as rings, rods and staffs (as I do) ~Pages 115 through the wounderous items and artifacts that end on page 359 would qualify. The wonderous items alone are a fair part of the book, separated by slot and sorted by price. Without the arms and armor/rings...

I would also be interested in finding any Pathfinder specific blogs, YouTube channels, and the like.

Not to derail the thread.. but Treebore I would enjoy hearing about how you have your PC's draw the map and have it not take *more* time than doing it yourself. Draw it like that.. no that long.. I would love to do this but I am yet to find a way to have the do it effectively. /On Topic/ I...

Red Mantis Assassin, FTW. Sawtooth Sabers, lots of bonus attack and damage. I played a tengu twf rouge that went RMA, he was one of the most fun characters I have played.

I am not familiar with a rule to deal with this either. Personally I would enforce it like a spell that did not have a duration long enough to get all the way through a wall. The nearby creatures are all pushed back, and remain adjacent to Billy, but they all (including Billy) take some impact...

Honestly the reason I am considering doing it is that there are so many about DnD done by vets. Let me restate. This would be Pathfinder only, and done specifically by a learning/new gm angled for other new Pathfinder gms and new players.

What level is he, and what is his play style? The new Ultimate Equipment has some new properties in it, perhaps there is one to fit his needs.

Interesting how this has become primarily about the vlog idea, but that's just fine with me! As for length, I would be aiming to keep them under 10min but just over 5. Some topics I could indeed go for a while on, and I would defiantly do it the way you recommend to break them up into parts. I...

Thanks for the input on both counts. Longer videos being anything over 5-10min? The theme of the campaign is the choice itself, with various themes for particular sections. For instance their first choice was to go face the undead to the north, and that will result in 2 sessions worth of...

So, we just started a new campaign where the choices the group makes will be the main deciding factor in how the story goes and even what the story is. (If they go left the fight kobalds and deliver the supplies, if they go right they fight orcs and defend the dwarf stronghold) It is something I...

I would like to pass on a bit of wisdom I got from a friend of mine about new players and classes. Start with something simple (a non combo class and nothing super special in terms of background for the class), he recommended a fighter (just about any type) or a barbarian. Mostly to learn the...

There are some of those in the PF Society stuff. My GM allowed me to take a few things from them for ease of tracking. As a GM I even created a few of my own.

I just got back from a month away from Pathfinder, and the forum. First thing I did? Preorder UE. I am a huge equipment nut. All of my characters are decked out in exactly what I think they will need for their adventures. My players always find ample amounts of mundane gear on their runs...

Thats a really cool method. I just gave my players a blank hex map. They where in charge of creating their own awareness. I told them what was in the area, and the terrain type. I love your friends idea. I would have done something similar if I had the mapfolieo.

I have a player quite like that myself. He is in fact our host. He gets really bent out of shape when his idea of the rules is not the DM's idea of the rules. Various bonuses of a spell being permanent, and other random BS. Take him aside before your first session starts, and tell him that you...
