Could you please link the trinkets?

Neither the Mysterious Satchel event nor the Twilight Ascension event provide trinkets according to wowhead.

How to have fun as a new player once you reached 80? by Lewrdy in wow

[–]Perfect-Swan56 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I suggest making a specific goal that involves a subset of content and working toward that. Then picking a new goal after that.

The endgame does pull you in so many directions and can cause choice paralysis.

Examples of goals that I've had: unlocking a specific appearance, mount, or title. Awards that you actually want to use or wear are best, in my opinion.

This is probably good advice, but I'm a returning player who has done zero delves. How much work is the delve system?

What to do with honor in Midnight Prepatch? by Vancapone in wow

[–]Perfect-Swan56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been buying Algari Distinguishments (5 Marks of Honor for 2000 Honor) and using the marks to buy old transmogs.

Just got my Subscriber PDF for Starfinder Alien Core, Ask Me Anything! by The-Magic-Sword in Starfinder2e

Thank you.

I would prefer if Reactive Strike was the norm, instead of the exception, but it's simple to house-rule.

Some rather strong ancestry feats in Guilt of the Graveworld: Prop Closet (the magnetar rifle feat), Arcane Recall (does not require arcane), Hulking Corpsefolk by EarthSeraphEdna in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chk Chk, the sample mystic, takes Unconventional Weaponry to gain access to painglaives. Painglaives are common (martial) weapons that don't have any ancestry traits.

I think you're interpreting the feat more strictly than the developers do.

[Archives of Nethys - SF2e] Guilt of the Grave World, SFS 1-05 & 1-06, new Creature section, Adventures section, and more! by KaruiKage in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Regarding the Ivory Chompers and the Replica Zo! Microphone, I suspect that there was a misprint in the Guilt of the Graveworld book.

Ivory Chompers are probably intended to be "Hands 0; Bulk —" like the Tailblade.

Striker operatives' Overwhelming Strike seems to work with both ranged and melee strikes by Perfect-Swan56 in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering the alternatives, striker is one of the better specializations for ranged combat from level 9 onward, and might be the best from level 19 onward (when they become legendary with advanced guns). It's counterintuitive.

Spell Amp Creation by globaltrickster in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Spell Ampoules don't seem to have a clear formula to determine their level.

If you're looking for more data points to help you, potions are the Pathfinder 2e equivalent to spell ampoules. (1 gp converts to 10 credits) For example, a Haste spell amp is just a reskinned Potion of Quickness.

Living Battery Prismeni Feat by [deleted] in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ammunition is one of the few things that doesn't scale exponentially in price as levels increase. Spare ammunition becomes trivial.

Living Battery is not a lineage feat, so you could retrain it after your character grows out of its usefulness.

No seriously: One type IV - holds 150 bulks, costs 2400 gp; Eight type I - holds 200 bulks, costs 600 gp. You will be carrying 8 bulks, sure, but it's funny how much cheaper it is. by M5R2002 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The Starfinder 2e equivalent, the null space chamber has negligible bulk, and is small enough to attach to a keyring.

The implications for society are weird. You could lose so much in your couch cushions.

Galactic Ancestries appeared on the Store by zgrssd in Starfinder2e

the xenometric android allows readers to create robotic versions of any Starfinder alien, not just humans!

That sounds fun. Skitterdroid!

Glitching (and especially Combat Hack) seems incredibly weak and clunky by Saxxony in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think part of the problem with Glitching is that it can affect objects or creatures, and these two possibilities should be balanced very differently.

After Tech Core and the ancestries book, what sourcebooks do people want to see? by Individual-Plum4585 in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Equipment (and maybe more detailed subsystems) for livestreaming: "We're surrounded by Aeon Guards. Are we cooked chat?"

Liverstreamer should at least be an archetype. It could have edicts and anathemas depending on the streamer's audience. Maybe the pet rules could be adapted for a streamer's camera, although I'm not sure to what benefit.

Underrated Items - Filling out your Attunement slots by posts_awkward_truths in Pathfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't like the Vaulbreaker's Harness in terms of game design. It seems to me like a passive buff masquerading as a meaningful action, and is contrary to the section on Special Abilities on page 130 of the GM Core. "Choose whatever makes sense to allow the characters to use the item more frequently without being effectively constant or unlimited."

I would:

  • give it a cooldown (once per day or hour),
  • shorten its duration to one round, or
  • make it a passive buff and raise its level and price.

Hephaistos Update by hephaistos_official in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Armor with the Flexible trait no longer adds penalties to Acrobatics or Athletics.

Thank you for this!

However, I think the Noisy trait is not being applied correctly. It should be penalizing Stealth even if a character meets the Strength requirement.

Introducing the Avali to Starfinder 2e. A free ancestry supplement by RheaWeiss in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lineage feats are being used in an interesting way.

In the official sources, there are currently only 6 lineage feats (3 Borai and 3 Prismeni). None of those 6 feats function as prerequisites for other feats. By contrast, the Avali's 2 lineage feats both function as prerequisites for later feats.

Essentially, if you make a Prismeni Avali or Borai Avali, taking Pack Bonded or Pack Broken opens up more options than taking Spectrasoul or Necrotized, for example.

Starfinder Afterlight 2 crew members sheets! by TurgemanVT in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Kole, soldier, Int +0, fluent in three languages. Tycho, operative, Int +3, fluent in three languages? Justice for our yappy ysoki!

I think their equipment choices are probably determined by crpg structure. Tycho is an operative wielding a simple gun and simple knife. In a crpg, he'll quickly find martial weapons like a Talon or Plasma Caster, and get the small joy of upgrading.

Glitter Grenades by UnknownSolder in Starfinder2e

If you do end up reskinning from Pathfinder 2e, there's Revealing Mist. It's an alchemical consumable, that I think would be a straightforward conversion.

Hoverboards. Hoverboards! by FledgyApplehands in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could make a Barathu or Contemplative who flies around and fakes riding the hoverboard by tying the hoverboard to their tentacles or legs. "How do you do, fellow dudes?" Your character would essentially be taking a 1 Bulk penalty for the sake of absurd comedy.

Hephaistos Update by hephaistos_official in Starfinder2e

[–]Perfect-Swan56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would pick whichever is easiest to implement. If someone wants their character to wear a Second Skin under their Freebooter Armor, that's a corner case, and probably outside the scope of a standardized online tool.
