[QUOTE="Zulithe, post: 5332240, member: 4708"] The Pathfinder Core Rulebook is actually on its third printing (which includes the second, and currently, most recent, round of errata). The Bestiary is on its second printing and also includes all current errata. If you order from amazon you should get these latest printings, since amazon goes through them like hotcakes, and these printings are over 2 months old. NO guarantees though. If you order direct from Paizo, you always get the latest printings, guaranteed. But you also don't get the nice amazon discount. I hate errata too, but it is an unavoidable evil in this hobby lest you'd rather live with broken rules--however, most of the errata fixes minor problems that barely affect most campaigns. If you do go with Pathfinder, I personally would recommend temporarily skipping the Advanced Player's Guide until it reaches its second printing. Keep an eye on the Paizo forum for details on when this will occur... but It should be before the end of the year, I suspect. It looks like there will be a fair bit of errata for it, but the Pathfinder Core is more than enough to keep you entertained until it is out. I'm sure the GameMastery Guide will have its share too, but since it is mostly fluff and advice (most of the crunch is in the form of an entire chapter of NPCs at the back), I think most of the errata will not be that big of a deal.
