Last Saturday was my last time DMing 2e. We played the final session of the first book in the AP and they got TPKed by the final encounter because critical fails on saves vs damage effects making you take double damage and enemy spellcasters that are 1 spell level above the party don't mix no good (...

Invokers are basically favored souls but moar, IMHO. Divine controllers with battlefield control and multi target damage. I think that the reason 4e’s memetic impact was close to null is because very few people played the game after the PHB (the book that has the warlord) came out. So maybe people w...

Do you seriously want me to explain how pigeonholing 3 sets with 9 objects each is more complex than 3 sets with, respectively, 3, 6, and 9 objects each? Yes, my reasoning was kinda dumb, but what GâtFromKI said holds true. In practice you don't have that much analysis paralysis since the build you...

I heard they've got downtime or legwork mechanics now? Do they have functional (or at least attempts at) minigames like chasing, managing minions/castle? Dumbass Jason Bulmahn has said that we'll get a free update sometime before release of the DMG with mechanics for monster building (no word on NP...

There are no rules for modifying or creating monsters as promised in the Bestiary either. You pretty much can't run your own game right now, only the one AP. The only thing you can do to enemies, as far as I know (having read both rule books and the AP) is to apply a sort of template that increases...

I DMed on Saturday and I must say it was ok. It had all these problems you are mentioning, yes, but the combats felt faster than on PF1. We played the ULTRA shitty AP, chapters 1 and 2. There was an ULTRA shitty skill challenge like... thing at the beginning that stretched out to 2 pages and was exc...

So do they have archetype or spec type stuff? I’m curious as to what they wrote fighters rogues to be good at... in intention Once you pick a class you have to stick with it. You may use some of your class feats to pick up multiclass feats. You get these feats on even levels and they give you your ...

I think you can dance a bit around Int penalties/bonuses so that you can keep them in your game if you need them but also avoid the racism by not giving them to humanoid races, like orcs or whatever. That way the race of crystal beings from the beyond reality get an Int bonus and the insect people h...

I know this is old news for most people, but actually taking the dive and implementing the methodology properly took me a while. Could you point to any resources or lessons learned the hard way for implementing that methodology? I can think of 3 moments that led me down that path. I'll list them in...

Something that I've learned in these past years is that if you, as a DM, make the outcome of failure as compelling as the outcome of success you'll be much less likely to fudge dice rolls, you'll have a much richer narrative and, in turn, a much better response from your players when they fail. &quo...

Addressing the issue of there being too many times you can play a fast effect is as simple as removing some of them. I don't think you need to be able to take actions during the Draw Step, for example. Similarly, you don't need to be able to take actions between First Strike Combat Damage and Regul...
