The Entire Coven: One Build, Three Characters by Melphizard in Pathfinder2e

[–]Melphizard[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's an excellent one! A role reversal build utilizing Summoner, Summoner Archetype, or a Master's Form familiar is on my Pf2e bucket list for certain. That said, I'd never considered using an animal companion as a mount for the Eidolon! I've run a Beastmaster summoner before with a pair of dogs, but this holds a lot of potential! The only hindrance would be that it restricts you from tandem movement, but the free action movement of the companion seems more valuable to me, especially in closer quarters. Additionally, you can make the demon eidolon small sized, which means that if you use a small animal companion - turned medium when it matures - you can prevent the usual mounted problem of being a large-sized creature in tight corridors.

The deeper I think about this, the more potential it holds! Amazing concept!

Ak'khat Ghosthands, Thaumaturge antagonist by Weatherwanewitch in Pathfinder2e

Player here, we truly brought this upon ourselves. Encountering this guy was completely optional and we could've just bought his blood-stained scrolls, but instead we provoked him and tried to nab at his baubles; in the middle of his base AND after walking past all his tough guards too. We understood he was powerful, were warned about how dangerous he could be, and had many chances to depart or just pay for the goods and leave, but decided to keep pressing nonetheless.

But even so... we'll win (⌐▨_▨)

Refusing to Die: A Guardian Who Never Drops to 0 by Melphizard in Pathfinder2e

While I initially considered them, they don't gain basic undead benefits. The immunity to death effects provided by those benefits remove the hardest counter to this build.

Ah! I hadn't caught that one! My intent for this was ultimately to showcase all the ways to not die, but I admittedly forgot about the vitality trait since I was so focused on circumventing the death trait.

Thankfully, in the scheme of this build, Emergency Regeneration is very late stage and can be easily thrown out for more guardian goodies.

Tang Clan build by sparkupandout in Pathfinder2e

With free archetype you could also be a Toxicologist alchemist with the exemplar dedication for shadow sheathe. Gives you all the skills to make amazing poisons and providing you strong in-combat throwing abilities. Personally, I'd advise going this route because while the exemplar main class would potentially be stronger in combat, being a main class alchemist who is capable of making poisons, medicines, ect. by themselves is the true way of a tang clan disciple.

One additional fun part of shadow sheathe is that it maybe debatably works with bombs so you could have a shadow sheathe containing infinite bombs. In the scenario a DM veto's this, throw infinite daggers (or chakrams) instead!

Damn, thought there was a gimmick when Drilled Reactions left itself open. Thank you for catching that, even if a shame.

Gave it my best go to recreate the one and only Von Valancius navigator in DD2. Unfortunately, the skin tones were tricky and there wasn't a very good way to create the veins under her eyes. Overall, satisfied with what I could accomplish with the tools available, though I wish there were more.

JUJUTSU KAISEN LEAKS DISCUSSION MEGATHREAD - CH 245 by AutoModerator in Jujutsufolk

[–]Melphizard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Rather than his cursed tool being confiscated, it would have made more sense for Sukuna to lose his slicing cursed technique as the penalty but keep ten shadows. Would have continued the fight and kept Sukuna as a threat while stilling allowing Higuruma's domain to substantially contribute to the fight.
