[QUOTE="onlinewarrior094, post: 5768492, member: 6683942"] My group are considering trying out Pathfinder. We've only ever played 4e, but I really like the look of it. There are just a few rules I have trouble with: Hit points: I've read multiple rules about this on forums, but found nothing conclusive in the book. Do players start with just max hit dice value, or max HD + CON bonus? Do players gain just a hit dice roll each level, or HD roll + CON bonus? Do players get an extra hit dice at every level? On the character advancement table, it says players get an ability score bonus every 4 levels. What is the value of this bonus, and how many ability scores does it apply to? Some abilities that grow in power as the character advances specify "bonus x character's level", while others say "bonus x character's hit dice". If you get one HD each level, what is the difference between these values? And finally, why is it that in the class advancement tables, under BAB, extra numbers are added every few levels? (eg. Barbarian Lv.1BAB is +1, while Lv.6 is +6/+1, and Lv.20 is +20/15/10/5) Sorry if these questions seem stupid or obvious, but as said, I've always played 4e and some of this is pretty alien to me. Thanks in advance to any replies. [/QUOTE]
