Pathfinder 2E [OOC] JM's "Doomsday Dawn" Pathfinder 2 Playtest Adventure. (Closed)

[tglassy]

I can do something different, if we want to mitigate sorcerers. I did already make one, but I can save him for later. He was a Half elven Imperial Sorcerer, but I'll do something else so we can get a good variation.

Would a Bard be too similar? Or should I go for something more martial?

Also, is everyone automatically trained in unarmored defense? Or do we start Untrained? Because the Mage Armor spell uses our proficiency in Unarmored Defense, but if we're trained, then our proficiency is 1, as it's equal to our level. If we're untrained, it's -1. So I'm confused as to which one we start at?

 

[Kaodi]

Just go ahead and post the sorcerer. It was more about mitigating the number of potential squishy arcane casters in a single party.

We have a rogue, fighter, wizard, alchemist and sorcerer. (Not counting you sorceror or Kaodi's second character.) I'd like to see a cleric or druid before a bard. But I'm not telling you to take any course of action. I'm sure Monday we'll have more people banging on our doors to get in.

My advice is not to read the Paizo forums. I'm playing it as if all characters are trained in Unarmored Defense. That is one hole in the rules that everyone agrees needs a ruling. (and no rulings will happen until the designers return from GenCon.) The playtest Wizard writeup implied trained was the status of UD so that's what I'm going with.

[jmucchiello]

I've poked at the char sheet format again. Added a place for darkvision/lowlight in the heading area. Added a combat section. I should be perfectly happy with the layout by the end of the playtest. (Just be glad I'm restraining myself from adding in tables.)

[Radaceus]

I like that you chose to speak Goblin, Fitz. So someone will understand my swearing

 

[jmucchiello]

AC and TAC should both be on the sheet.
Adding the nimble dodge listing is a bit dangerous without also noting that the +2 is a circumstance bonus since circumstance bonuses do not stack.
