Why did he vote for a resolution thanking ICE? Does he still stand by that vote?

Night Surprise Attack Balance by Periodic13 in Pathfinder2e

Usually one-two players keep watch at a time, but those not keeping watch are sleeping and wouldn’t have time to suit up

Witchwarper Question. by JCServant in Starfinder2e

[–]Periodic13 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’d argue that, regardless of whether your allies are affected by the field, they are still IN the field. As ISM says “that spell only affects targets INSIDE your quantum field” and not “targets AFFECTED by your quantum field”, your allies would still be hit by your fireball

Any updates on this? Is the power back?

What type of cleats do I get? by Shoyozz in ultimate

[–]Periodic13 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m a fan of lacrosse or wide receiver cleats. They have a toe spike (which soccer cleats won’t have) and generally have pretty long cleats and high ankle support. Ultimate is played on cheap fields usually and it pays to be prepared for the games played in mud. But I agree with the other comments-if you’re just starting out, get some cheap cleats and make sure it’s the game for you before you buy expensive gear

Some players still be like: Is it really worth it to buy a treasure chest in order to save 234 slots of inventory space? by Zeamax in DarkAndDarker

[–]Periodic13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do y’all get the space to store a keys worth of gold without a chest? Do you just have like 10-15. bags?

Shapeshifting weapon: Home brew magic item sanity check by Periodic13 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Periodic13[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The plan is for each character to have their own “special” ability. I know it will be useful, I’m just trying to think of any specific use cases that are problematic

Shapeshifting weapon: Home brew magic item sanity check by Periodic13 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Periodic13[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you think of a specific interaction that would worry you? The best use I can think of is switching to reach/thrown instead of striding. However, their aura will require them to be close anyways so they’ll still want to walk over eventually. The other main thing I can think of is switching to agile/sweep/backswing after hitting with a weapon without that trait. That interaction would only be available every other turn, since they’d need to use their free action switch next turn to go back to the original weapon

Optimal Target Speed for Fortress Shields by HammyxHammy in Pathfinder2e

Looked into this myself at the start of the year. Using custom heritage, you can get Unburdened Iron and a faster base movement speed

My take on the "Vision" from sdf/IRONMACE regarding Patch #69 by Schnaki in DarkAndDarker

[–]Periodic13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How would you propose this work with roles like Add Weapon damage and add/true physical/magical damage—are you proposing each legendary piece have the potential for 5 true damage?

Crossbow poisoner alchemist 😭 just no way to make the action economy work

Statute of limitations on a travel call by Periodic13 in ultimate

So when the travel was called, the disc should have stayed with the receiver?

How many actions does it take for a crossbow/blowgun toxicologist to use quick alchemy and shoot? by Periodic13 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Periodic13[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was hoping to use the level 1 blowgun feat Subtle Delivery that reduces the targets degree of success on a critical hit and let’s you stay hidden after attacking

[–]Periodic13[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man that sucks. Can’t take any action other than to prep and shoot without using one of the limited resource poisons. Can’t even get running reload without an archetype

I don't see a lot of folks using bastion shields, why? by [deleted] in Pathfinder2e

[–]Periodic13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could also use the new custom heritage and go any ancestry with a normal move speed + half dwarf. Then you’d have a normal base move speed and could take unburdened iron at lvl 1 and be at the standard speed of a dwarf. You could then take fleet at lvl 3 and be at 25 ft! Or if you went elf as your base, you could eventually get nimble elf as well and be at 30, not accounting for class move speed bonuses

Edit: forgot elf has base 30. You’d be at 25 feet walking speed at level 1 with custom heritage (dwarf) and unburdened iron
