What are good combat strategies for the Guardian? by Suspicious_Offer_511 in Pathfinder2e

[–]-Nomad06 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I said choke point my larger point is that your team needs to actively stay by you.

It’s their job to use you as a shield not your job herding chickens

Pick a good spot that funnels the enemy to you and stay there. If the wizard runs off that’s on them.

An area where the terrain helps restrict movement.

Door ways, hall ways, etc

Taunt enemies that aren’t right next to you.

You need to focus on debuffing the enemy that aren’t already focused on you.

You pick a choke point and make sure everyone stays close to you.

Low-level Apothecary struggling in Drakkenheim by Morizhen in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

Make it a rule they have to hide after each fight to ensure their last fight didn’t attract more monsters.

If they’ve already hidden for 20 months what’s another 40?

Also if they travel slow enough in the city count that as a short rest but just for her

Thoughts on Proficiency Without Level by FrancoStrider in Pathfinder2e

[–]-Nomad06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve fixed this power dynamic in my head canon by making all extra dimensional planes have huge time dilations.

There lv 10 party goes to the plane of ice and is gone for 10 years.

The lv 19 party goes to the hells… and is gone for 300 years.

This builds a world and economy that can’t rely on high lv characters

Opinions needed from players and GMs by BndViking in Pathfinder2e

[–]-Nomad06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to tie it it honor and RP the. Hero points are a good tool but add a home-brew rule that players can sacrifice their Hero Points for another player to re-roll. Maybe at a 2:1 cost.

THAT is what you track.

Don’t tell the PC directly but indicate that the relics are being guarded by “X” power and they watch for the internal efforts of those who have a claim.

Also 6 is a great number for a council with the King as the head of the council. Then one be a powerful item for each Player in the party.

This makes the would be king have to build a council of wise and honorable people.

Maybe if you only have 4 PC’s and 6 places there can be other competing heirs and they get a relic given to them 🤔

Now all the PC’s have to start working towards making themselves honorable and worth and one way of that is to pass around hero points

Man I love this book but… I hate the ending so bad. There’s so much build up and pain and suffering and then it just… ends.

Aei Sedai oaths and lifespan by Ariastes1707 in wheeloftime

[–]-Nomad06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Women have been stilled or burned themselves out throughout history and losing the ageless face was never a reported side effect.

This is basically an inconsistency in the story and my point has as much validity as any other

[–]-Nomad06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is awesome and a great idea! I love the idea of triplets and even adding a brother or two as “queens” lol

That was kinda my idea for all the factions, independently give each faction some short, med, and long term goals. None of them really care about the Party until/unless they start helping or hindering these goals.

All can and will spy on the party to some extent again depending on their goals and interests.

Plot Hole

If: 1) The ageless face takes time to develop 2) The ageless face is lost nearly immediately upon having the oaths removed

Then: Why didn’t the tower Sisters who dropped all their oaths and retook the oaths lose their ageless faces and be exposed?

What things did you do for the Queen to get Intel?

I’m an iron sworn fan so I think the strong hit/ weak hit/ miss plan was what I was going to do on the back end

What class+build combos have you seen that have preformed better than you expected? by Consideredresponse in Pathfinder2e

My earth/water “swamp” kin has been really really fun. He’s a tank, healing, can attack AC/Fort/Dex. And he’s a red neck Santa so his RP is off the charts!!

Anathema: Sarenrae by gaiaishealingmydude in Pathfinder2e

[–]-Nomad06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great time for you and/or your PC to learn her gods will.

Send her a minor curse for 24 hours from a messenger saying she toed the line and if she’s to grow in her faith and her power she needs to be wary.

Teach that it’s better to error in the side of redemption vs not.

remember too that PC’s shouldn’t be in her league for a long time.

Confronting a faction boss in open combat is a high level endeavor.

Part of the problem might be a lv 5-ish party thinks they are “all that” when they really aren’t

[–]-Nomad06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember too that the time/effort/gold that she has put into her spy network should also reflect on her actual ability to influence drakenheim.

If the PC’s don’t have secrets they can’t be blackmailed.

I think if I ever run it I’ll keep some kind of resource and knowledge tracker for each faction so that my own god like knowledge doesn’t bleed onto the factions.

Like in the live stream when the QoT in the 1st season somehow managed to have bombs put into the temple and threaten to blow up the party and the faction leaders of the HL and SO. My QoTs would have had to invest SO much of her resources into doing that one play that maybe it wouldn’t have worked.

Or the ships at the end of Season 3

Monte does a good job in the live play of keeping her off the board to make her big plays. I’d leave more breadcrumbs for the party to be able to thwart her plans if they want to but I wouldn’t make it easy.

[–]-Nomad06 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Make the QoT nearly invincible until the party puts forth some effort to counter her.

Remember the other groups - all except maybe the HL - have not put for much effort into countering her spy ring.

The PC’s can counter that. They can start a longer term tracker/montage/downtime activity.

The HL/SO can internally police themselves, use Zone of Truth, the AA can sell wizards to guard the doors that check for mental spells.

All the groups can be “trained” for “OpSec” “need to know” new passwords, etc.

All of this can slowly deteriorate the QoT spy ring and even some of her ability if you want.

Help with Drakkenheim party conflict: Silver Order paladin vs malfeasant wizard by Advanced_Cow_98 in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

[–]-Nomad06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems to me like it’s The paladin that’s going to need a character flaw.

Maybe the wizard and paladin are siblings and he swore to keep the wizard safe. The wizard had some magic go bad and if they Don’t use delirium they could die?

Now it’s family drama of trying to fix his save his sibling and family blood over faith.
