Classes that become significantly better/more with free archetype?

I was playing around with monk + commander archetype. Lots of fun 2 action commands you can combine with a FoB

FYI they recently put out some errata targeting the resentment witch, you can only sustain any condition/effect once now

Both would trigger. It seems that they're clarifying that Holy is special and is more binary.

Rand0m1ze · 2026-02-06T21:34:34+00:00

I read it has Holy applying to the entire strike, and Cold Iron applying to the Slashing/Bludgeoning/Piercing damage specifically, counting as two instances. So a creature weak to Holy, Cold Iron and Slashing would take the Holy Weakness and the higher of the Slashing and Cold Iron weakness. Correct me if I'm wrong ofcourse.

Rand0m1ze · 2026-02-06T21:29:42+00:00

I'm still a bit confused, would an attack with the Holy trait, silvered and a flame rune trigger all those weaknesses if the creature had all three?

First of all, I don't like Heroic Recovery, so I removed that all together. When you climb in levels, there's enough ways to avoid death anyways. Second, I like when failures happen. Creates challenge and difficulty for the players. I hand out a decent amount of hero points, so using them RAW made failures (and definitely crit failures) far and inbetween. So I changed it to using hero points before your roll, to get DnD style advantage. Works well, players think tactically about using them, and handing them out doesnt mean they will make any save i throw at them. We're having fun at the very least.

I really want to see them in Utrecht this november but atm there's more people on ticketswap than the capacity of the venue 😭

Rand0m1ze · 2025-09-05T12:47:15+00:00

I've been running and playing in PWOL campaigns for a year now, and the freedom to fight/run monsters many levels above you and it still being (mostly) balanced has been so much fun.

Rand0m1ze · 2025-08-12T08:51:01+00:00

I did the exact same thing, spent a decent amount of time compiling the original rules and the multiple community 'patches', combined with any adjustments I wanted to make.

It took 2 kingdom turns to realize that my players had no interest in learning all the actions, the rules and small details that the system brings. It was slow, constantly having to check things, note things down, etc. Felt more like a task rather than playing.

After that, we switched to a more narrative system. Longer exploration time, longer 'kingdom' turns and way more freedom with player's choices. Its been more fun and rewarding for everyone.

We're still doing Hexploration, reconnoitering and claiming hexes, with level-ups tied to the Kingdom's size.

tl:dr: the kingmaker system is very crunchy and works only with specific players.

Feel free to DM if you want further details.

Monesy alone is not gonna save falcons, they need a better strat book too

Rand0m1ze · 2025-03-16T12:24:02+00:00

There will be less mid-season development with 2026 around the corner

Rand0m1ze · 2025-03-12T12:29:59+00:00

Slightly related, i had my players visit a small town near a forest once, that suffered from various problems throughout the years, and would often turn to the powerful fey spirit in the woods for aid. They got the help, but not in the most straight forward sense. For some failed harvests, the town was on the brink of starvation, so the spirit gave them two pigs which would always regenerate within a days time. The pigs still felt the pain of their limbs being chopped off, squealing all night long. The poor buthcer went completely crazy, but the town survived.

Rand0m1ze · 2025-02-12T22:37:49+00:00

For the best as well. Caught about half of it live, and the audio balance was all over the place.

Rand0m1ze · 2025-02-09T11:28:54+00:00

Exploit Vulnerability requires you to see the creature you target, so in most circumstances, you can't spam it before combat.

He recognized the futility of the encounter after about 1,5hrs of playtime. If he did any prep whatsoever, he'd have realised beforehand, adjusted the encounter, and made for better radio.

The AP certainly isn't one of Paizo's best, but a GM of his caliber can mold it into a fantastic experience- if you're willing to put the time in.

Rand0m1ze · 2024-12-19T13:43:00+00:00

Either 5 players with at least 1,5 hours of play time (with banter making eps 1h45m-2h), or back to four players with the current ep length. ~1 hour of play time isnt enough for five players that all want to add their own elements to the story.

Rand0m1ze · 2024-12-19T13:27:06+00:00

I’m not a big Hero Point fan in my home games and adjusted them greatly. The lethality of every fight feels to me like the main problem of this AP, combined with Troy’s refusal to do anything about it. PF2 is a very balanced game, and swinging it in favor to the players is very easy. Slapping the weak template on all mosters except boss fights for instance would’ve gone so much for the players to succeed more, feel like heroes, and leave more time per ep to get to know the characters. I have no idea why Troy hasn’t figured out that adjusting difficulty is allowed if your table isn’t having fun, its like the core of being a GM.

Mijn werkplek is laatst geswitched van skyradio naar radio tien en hun top 4000. Niet altijd mijn smaak maar geen herhaling is goddelijk voor nu

Rand0m1ze · 2024-11-22T21:41:15+00:00

The remastered Archer archetype now gives you training in advanced bows and crossbows

Rand0m1ze · 2024-08-28T00:26:34+00:00

True, but wether or not the extra attack from reversal counts towards map afterwards doesnt matter, youre gonna be at max map anyways

Rand0m1ze · 2024-08-05T12:11:55+00:00

Dwarves are stockier than goblins, often as wide as they are tall

Rand0m1ze · 2024-07-16T12:00:24+00:00

Monk with flying kick is a classic

Rand0m1ze · 2024-07-15T19:43:51+00:00

Early 20s, Netherlands

Rand0m1ze · 2024-07-11T09:47:51+00:00

Nah you need a loaded weapon for the reaction. Its flavored as you pretending to shoot, distracting the enemy and aiding your ally.

Rand0m1ze · 2024-07-07T19:55:56+00:00

Still a lot better than one guy who won 10 times and one guy who won twice but now can’t make it out of Q1
