Gods that care heavily about “alignment” will remain strict about it, sounds like case by case thing</p><p></p><p>Q: Troop rules in Monster Core?</p><p>A: No. New troops in Rage of Elements though.</p><p></p><p>Q: Will there be revisions to the Beginner Box?</p><p>A: Revisions are minimal; no new BB edition yet. Revised intro product at some point.</p><p></p><p>Q: Conversion guide?</p><p>A: Term primer, resources for translating should be out there. </p><p></p><p>Example: Feat for alignment damage would get a nuanced change contained within whether or not it’s a feasible quick change</p><p></p><p>Q: Partnered content? </p><p>A: Remaster won’t affect content, content creators will be worked with to get the changes through.</p><p></p><p>Q: What’s happening with Ability Scores?</p><p>A: Ability scores going away; they’re just going to become Ability Modifiers now.</p><p></p><p>Q: Favorite Change?</p><p></p><p>A: </p><p>L: Focus points; they’re gonna be easier to use. Refocusing will be easier.</p><p>J: Dragons. Spoiled Omen Dragons hee ho.</p><p></p><p>Q: Alignment changing due to OGL?</p><p>A: Kinda sorta. It’s a reductive/legacy tool. Batman’s alignment remains unconfirmed by devs.</p><p></p><p></p><p>Q: What should game-masters think about the Remaster? What to look forward to?</p><p>A: Look for things you want to use in the Remaster; otherwise, content is unchanged as played. Exceptions are anything alignment-themed - GM should keep an eye out for systems affected by alignment changes. </p><h3>5pm Stream Notes</h3><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xAa3SaHXLg" target="_blank">Remaster Project Stream (5pm EST)</a></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Alignments will have absolutely no bearing on the established lore/story of Outsiders such as devils & angels. <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">They’ll go into other aspects, likely from Edicts & Anathemas.</li> </ul></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Monster Core will have information for how Outsiders interact outside of Alignments. </li> </ul><p>Q: Is this Pathfinder 2.5?</p><p>A: Not enough changes for a 2.5 or a version change. It’s errata plus.</p><p></p><p>Q: Clarification for water pressure damage? </p><p>A: lmao no. It might go in somewhere for QoL changes.</p><p></p><p>Q: Will there be new 1st and 2nd level items?</p><p>A: Yes. Starting magic items, rings of protection will be in the errata. Alchemical items will be going to Player Core 2 to package them in with Alchemist.</p><p></p><p>Q: What happens to the humble bundle PDFs and PDF purchases?</p><p>A: PDFs won’t be updated quite yet. The rules/changes published will be available online for free.</p><p></p><p>Q: Is magic missile gone?</p><p>A: Erik - not sure. They changed magic missile’s mechanics. The name may change. (Force missile)</p><p></p><p>Q: Will Rogues get access to martial weapons?</p><p>A: Erik doesn’t know - team will consider it.</p><p></p><p>Q: What classes are changing?</p><p>A: Already outlined before; Champion, Oracle, Alchemist, Witch.</p><p></p><p>Q: Did these books screw up the production schedule?</p><p>A: YES apparently. 2024 was set in stone beforehand, it’s a little goofy now. Some things are going to be pushed forward.</p><p></p><p>Q: Starfinder and OGL?</p><p>A: A little later on in the future; not in the immediate future. </p><p></p><p>Q: Witch meeting patron mechanics?</p><p>A: Design team is listening; maybe</p><p></p><p>Q: Bard gets +5 early?</p><p>A: Nope at a glance</p><p></p><p>Q: Will the books be available as PDFs under the rulebooks subscription?</p><p>A: To be discussed; topic of discussion.</p><p></p><p>Q: Battlezoo changes?</p><p>A: Should work, there’s no mechanical changes that would affect the content in Battlezoo.</p><p></p><p>Q: How’s Dead God’s Hand going, Erik?</p><p>A: Remaster stuff did get in the way; Erik will finish it when he finishes it. Jinxes self with car accident.</p><p></p><p>Q: Errata for Divine stat blocks?</p><p>A: Not really; the Edicts and Anathema should cover everything in practice.</p><p></p><p>Q: Shoony versatile heritage/ core Shoony</p><p>A:No…? </p><p></p><p>Q: Apsu? Dragon changes?</p><p>A: Chromatic/metallic dragons are a little problematic with OGL, so they’re definitely going to be changed.These changes are a good opportunity to try out new Dragon things now that the design space is there. </p><p></p><p>Q: Deep dive expansion into pantheon lore?</p><p>A: Yes. </p><p></p><p>Q: Hag changes?</p><p>A: Work was being done for new hag ideas/designs? Extensive rework. </p><p></p><p>Q: New Pathfinder fiction?</p><p>A: No announcements from Erik; interest for returning to PF Tales</p><p></p><p>Basically all the questions from here are mechanics/design based and can’t be answered</p><p></p><p>Q: Drow equivalent?</p><p>A: Cannot say, but there’s a lot.</p><p></p><p>Q: Organized play changes?</p><p>A: Unsure.</p><p></p><p>Q: Witch mechanics?</p><p>A: Can’t answer; designers would be better for asking.</p><p></p><p>Q: What caused the most debate internally?</p><p>A: Alignments (duh). </p><p></p><p>Q: BB Box changes? (Again)</p><p>A: Not yet. The changes won’t be affecting most early level experiences. Some other intro content might come up.</p><p></p><p>Q: Disarm action changes?</p><p>A: Probably not.</p><p></p><p>Q: Starstone related content?

[LIST] [*]They’ll go into other aspects, likely from Edicts & Anathemas. [/LIST] [*]Monster Core will have information for how Outsiders interact outside of Alignments. [/LIST] Q: Is this Pathfinder 2.5? A: Not enough changes for a 2.5 or a version change. It’s errata plus. Q: Clarification for water pressure damage? A: lmao no. It might go in somewhere for QoL changes. Q: Will there be new 1st and 2nd level items? A: Yes. Starting magic items, rings of protection will be in the errata. Alchemical items will be going to Player Core 2 to package them in with Alchemist. Q: What happens to the humble bundle PDFs and PDF purchases? A: PDFs won’t be updated quite yet. The rules/changes published will be available online for free. Q: Is magic missile gone? A: Erik - not sure. They changed magic missile’s mechanics. The name may change. (Force missile) Q: Will Rogues get access to martial weapons? A: Erik doesn’t know - team will consider it. Q: What classes are changing? A: Already outlined before; Champion, Oracle, Alchemist, Witch. Q: Did these books screw up the production schedule? A: YES apparently. 2024 was set in stone beforehand, it’s a little goofy now. Some things are going to be pushed forward. Q: Starfinder and OGL? A: A little later on in the future; not in the immediate future. Q: Witch meeting patron mechanics? A: Design team is listening; maybe Q: Bard gets +5 early? A: Nope at a glance Q: Will the books be available as PDFs under the rulebooks subscription? A: To be discussed; topic of discussion. Q: Battlezoo changes? A: Should work, there’s no mechanical changes that would affect the content in Battlezoo. Q: How’s Dead God’s Hand going, Erik? A: Remaster stuff did get in the way; Erik will finish it when he finishes it. Jinxes self with car accident. Q: Errata for Divine stat blocks? A: Not really; the Edicts and Anathema should cover everything in practice. Q: Shoony versatile heritage/ core Shoony A:No…? Q: Apsu? Dragon changes? A: Chromatic/metallic dragons are a little problematic with OGL, so they’re definitely going to be changed.These changes are a good opportunity to try out new Dragon things now that the design space is there. Q: Deep dive expansion into pantheon lore? A: Yes. Q: Hag changes? A: Work was being done for new hag ideas/designs? Extensive rework. Q: New Pathfinder fiction? A: No announcements from Erik; interest for returning to PF Tales Basically all the questions from here are mechanics/design based and can’t be answered Q: Drow equivalent? A: Cannot say, but there’s a lot. Q: Organized play changes? A: Unsure. Q: Witch mechanics? A: Can’t answer; designers would be better for asking. Q: What caused the most debate internally? A: Alignments (duh). Q: BB Box changes? (Again) A: Not yet. The changes won’t be affecting most early level experiences. Some other intro content might come up. Q: Disarm action changes? A: Probably not. Q: Starstone related content? (When can I become a god) A: Dead God’s Hand Erik Mona: [LIST] [*]CONFIRMED ROGUE MARTIAL WEAPONS [*]WIZARD GETS SIMPLE WEAPONS [/LIST] 500 likes milestone Rage of the Elements will have new errata rules.
