I have an idea for a fun, flavorful character I figured I'd ask for some help designing. Not exactly sure if I'll end up playing the character, if it will show up as an NPC helping the party, or even as a random villain, but I wanted to design the build because it sounded fun (and I didn't have...

I actually went through a bunch of ideas on how to update Spellthief for a current campaign I'm running. Sandman is, alas, just not the same. I settled for a rogue archetype, stripping out half of the SA dice and switching out talents for theft abilities and SLA's like Arcane Eye. I think I...

I knew (and planned to use) Shield Other, but I didn't know about Compel Hostility. I like it a lot. Thanks :D Hummingbird was in an issue of Dragon Magazine I think. Normally we don't use the magazine, but I've had a Hummingbird Familiar before while playing with the GM, so I'm pretty sure I...

Is there any other way then to try to force enemies to attack you then? Or is my best bet just Command? Hmm, the chart on Improved Familiar says Arcane, but the prerequisites only say ability to obtain one, compatible alignment, and "sufficiently high level" without the 'Arcane caster' part...

I already decided to take the Restoration subdomain. How is Antagonize nerfed? Is there errata that I don't know about that changed it? I like Reach a lot, but I think I'd rather have one spell per two rounds ranged via familiar flying to and back without increasing the spell slots than...

Yeah, I'm currently DMing a campaign where one player is a trip-paladin, and he hates whenever I throw flying monsters or things with too many / no legs. Makes me scared to focus the character on it. I'm definitely taking Healing as one of my domains; I know it's not the best option out there...

The more I look at the archetypes of Cleric, the less appealing I find them. Not getting attacks of opportunity for healing spells is appealing from Merciful Healer, but that wouldn't extend to any other spells. The Mercy effect on channels doesn't do too much since I have the Restoration...

I was considering being summon focused, but 1. I'd rather just play a Summoner at that point, and 2. I'm pretty sure someone else in the party is already doing that (plus, Mighty Strength is self only. Not to say I couldn't just Bull's Strength). And honestly, I just want my "something else"...

I did consider Oracle. I actually began building the character as a Human Oracle of Life. I decided to go to Cleric because I want to take Scribe Scroll/Craft Wand, and having all of the cleric's spell list to scribe from is a lot more appealing. Plus Merciful Healer still gets the no AoO thing...

Hey all, I'm pretty new to Pathfinder. My gaming group is starting up a campaign at level 7. We have a skillmonkey/buff Bard, a Warforged Juggernaut, a blast/summony Necromancer, and a ranged damage Ranger. So, we lack heals, and we could use a tanky melee guy as well. I've settled on playing a...
