powder mage was a really good book series that covered magic users being rare, powerful tools, that are both strategically invaluable, but also feared. it also played with the political power of small cabals of people who are again, strategically invaluable and yet also unfathomably dangerous, both in having great sway, but also being kept in gilded cages due to the danger they represent.

Would you please do the Investigator? I did one that used a pepperbox and dealt more than 400 damage per turn.

Fluttershy would DEFINITELY be a Druid.

reason one is not shit

I have had to revisit the rules for this recently and get my players accustomed to this. The last quarter of our adventure is taking place in a Space jammer setting and so they have cannons and ballista on their ship. And have to defend against them in space combat. I have found a reluctance of my players in using siege equipment and having them stuck on a ship have seen my best results with it. Its an often over looked and under used rule set.

Just found this channel! Great to see the love for PF 1e!

I started out playing 5e as a player. Pathfinder 1 seemed so intimidating at the time, especially when I started looking at how many character options there are. The more I learned about both systems, though, the more appealing Pathfinder became. This became especially true as I started looking at the possibility of GMing. While both systems have their flaws, I definitely prefer Pathfinder as a core ruleset overall, especially because porting content from D&D 3 or 3.5 is easy and there are plenty of alternate rulesets to keep things fresh.

I approve of this message. Love Pathfinder 1e

I would like to see a character try to seduce a dragon .. succeed! and then have the dragon scoop up the bard and fly off with them into the sunset.

Love it. and so true. I tend to try and set a more serious tone as players tend to pull the other way more often than not.

Hey ! Love your video, very helpful ! I was struck by the images you used, especially the one from 3:35 to 5:30. Could you share the illustrator's name ? I tried reverse searching on google and couldn't find anything :/ It would be great if you added the artists' names when you use images, I'm sure the artists would appreciate it, seeing as you are using their work to make videos. I'm not trying to sound judgemental or condemning, I'm just trying to defend my fellow artists' struggling careers ^^' love your content, excited to see more !!! :) Take care

Q: Have you considered making a program about the Elemental mixed races, Ifrit, Oread, Marid, and Sylph? Lots of creative options and RP possibilities.

D6, what a superb essay! This is one that every new DM / GM should watch, absorb, and share with the players. Great!

Just like your thumbnail, we can use art to help decide the tone of our games. I have been playing since 1995 (yeah, you can call me a boomer, grognard, whatever), and D&D to me will always be based on the art of what I consider the trifecta of D&D artists: Jeff Easley, Clyde Caldwell and (the one on the left of your thumbnail) Larry Elmore. I don't think we will remember the art of current D&D in twenty years or so... It really baffles me that anyone would want the "tone" conveyed in the latest pieces of D&D art.

Funny, seeing your poster, I always thought I was running the 2nd kind of game (the epic fight against evil), but now that I think of it, it's more like a kid and his pet! 😅

I typically favor more on the serious side where combat is impactful and can be the cause of a tpk if the players don't think for like 2 seconds, as well as have a world where their choices actually matter and aren't given stuff out like candy because "muh hero points". I also like to track carry weight and ammo usage, as well as other resources because its a small way to add a bit more thought to the game and makes magic bows that fire unlimited arrow, or daggers that return once thrown that much more rewarding, same with a rare bag of holding, or a chalice that once per day can fill itself with a healing potion that scales with their level. I want magic items to feel special, not mundane.

Oh. Bruh. Pathfinder 1e and DOOM references. I love your channel.

I want to run a game where my players are two dwarven gay baristas, and the challenges they have to face when their Amazon orders are the wrong colour (or size!) and the general hijinks they have when dealing with customers and customers increasingly wacky demands.

A very silly one.

“Rip and Tear”. The lolth worshiping drow say this in my world as a blessing 😊 Rule 0 - the DM’s word is law.

This is all interesting content. Is it published in a book? Or custom to the channel creator?

Must admit I was surprised the pancakes didn't end up doing slashing and piercing damage from having glass in them.

I'm working on a Wyvaran kinetic lancer and being new to pathfinder I'm struggling a little bit

Hey, nice video ! But i fear you missed what i think is the best option for a poison build, the Toxicant archetype for the Alchemist. It has a poison secreting from the body (RAW has no expiration date) that can be used as a touch attack or put on a weapon (as a swift) character level + intelligence per day. This poison deals your intelligence in damage, wich seems worse than the eldritch poisoner, but the catch is that every three levels you can add a rider on the poison (sickened, stunned, etc) whose effectiveness scale on levels and prior investments in riders. And there is daze at level 6 with no prerequisite. Daze. The condition that nearly none is immune to and make you lose all your round. On this poison with a DC that can scale sky high. And for the sneak attack, toxicant is amazingly stackable with vivsectionist, who has full sneak attack progression !

i think Demonic Implants and necrografts deserve an honorable mention

Kytons are a good fit for this as well. I have used them a couple times for this effect in my 5e games (not in pf 1e game yet). I take liberal inspiration from warhammer dark elves.

Sorta surprised necrografts didn’t make the cut. Rolling with a morgh tongue is absolutely body horror.

Maco voss

a small form of bodyhorror i used in a game a few years ago with a dragon disciple, was how thier bloodline manifested, loss of teeth as new bite attack grew in, growths under the skin as scales would begin to pop out, same for wings. bleeding from the nose and a slow crawling change in alignment from CG to CE due to red dragon bloodline :3 in addition to that, the very first time the RDD form of dragon was attained, i used inspiration from parasite eves rat transformation cutscene to show what me sorcerer had happen to em, fighting one of the other players right after in a small bit of primal frenzy as the mind was somewhat out of it due to the overwhelming psyche change to a dragon. the scene was quite a bit of RP and graphic in its description. also polymorphing in general can be extremely graphic and whatnot :)

great video, but couldn't the mutant template also be an easy addition to the body horror genre?

Such sights to show us today

One of my favorite classes besides shaman and bard

Wish my buddy let me roll for stats vs buy in. Rolled 6 d20 and hit nothing lower than 16. He was like wholly crap epic rolls but sorry bro buy up system only

lol, paladin and monk are actually the best choices for multiclassing cause of wis/cha to AC and divine grace. Or u mean that 1-2 lvl dip is not multiclassing?

I'm personally more interested in PF1e because of my experience playing Wrath of the Righteous and Neverwinter Nights 2. Some of the stuff I've heard that's different in 2e seems to deviate too much from what I'm used to. I'm sure a lot of other people are interested in 1e because of Kingmaker and WOTR.

0:37 okay but Corvo is definetly a Witch though... he even has a familiar in the shape of his love's soul bound to her mechanically reanimated heart, because the Outsider is wacky like that.

Daaamn. Been a while

you repeated the damage of rams at 9:30

been cool to catch a nod towards the siege engine specialist wizard. "siege mage" I believe.

Second

first! 42 seconds after the upload.

Weird question: Does anyone know what the hosts look like? Love placing faces with names!

I’m having fun with my Half Orc Untouchable Rager with Undead bloodline. I’ve never played a caster so this really works with my play style.

Are y'all gonna start making pf2e content?

I cut my teeth on the system.

i've been playing pf1e for years now. also playing 2e, but while it's easier to DM 2e - finding those tricks to making a powerful character in 1e. IOW 1e is more fun to play and i prefer it. That said - I've been looking for tips on Arcanist builds, and i've been stunned at how few people have even taking notice of the QUICK STUDY exploit - this exploit obsoletes both the wizard and sorcerer classes! Wizards are limited to the spells they've prepared, and sorcerers are limited to the spells they know. With the quick study exploit, and arcanist can swap out any prepared spell with any other spell of the same level. A wizard who hasn't prepared the spell they need has to wait until the next day, while a sorcerer is just s.o.l. So an arcanist with the quick study exploit ALWAYS HAS ACCESS TO ALL THEIR SPELLS. How people keep missing this is beyond me.

Would be interesting to do a whole abandoned mansion is full of these. Then at the end the house itself is animated

I was just wandering about this, funny enough. Does it work on cannons?

Go scale fist monk 1 get cha to ac and save all feats trait to get cl back

I hate arcanist so much I made one with 12 inteligence all in cha and rely solely on arcanist exploit to deal dmg. and I was still top dps. the worst part is it was the most viable build I've made unironicly
