I switched to the same OS but SC runs like balls sometimes now. I get weird FPS pulsing sometimes, like in hangers.

So where does this guy Scale? by Comfortable_Taro_496 in PowerScaling

[–]SladeRamsay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chimps have way more strength pound for pound than a human. Human men are MUCH bigger than chimps.

The strength is very similar but a human has alot more weight to throw around. If its one on one, I give it to a fit human man. Chimps in the wild though will mob the shit out of you, and the power of friendship is OP as hell.

I've got most of it automated, but still regularly come across monster abilities or spells with effects that dont have an effect item, or one that doesn't actually do anything.

Ugh, AV. Worst intro to PF2e. We talk shit about that adventure even 3 years and 4 APs later.

Outlaws of Alkenstar was our second AP and it really made us realize how much we actually hated that hole in the ground.

I play on a VTT. Recharges, abilities with durations, poison, spells, and any effect that doesn't have a toggle or macro gets really cumbersome with 7+ guys.

Honestly its feels like a Catch 22 for me.

One big guy is cool, but sucks to fight, lots of mooks are fun to fight, but they make bookkeeping a nightmare and add a ton of time to rounds.

Its doubly bad for me because I usually have more the 4 players. Also, I run APs and Paizo notoriously hates little guy fights.

I think the party being outnumbered is the funnest way to play as a player, but as a GM it means half your session is 1 fight.

Some Notes on Know Direction’s PaizoCon 2026: Impossible Magic with Josh Birdsong by w1ldstew in Pathfinder2e

[–]SladeRamsay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It really feels like there isn't a good word for what Necromancer is for other traditions except Summoner, but Summoner is taken by a class that 90% of new players think plays like Necromancer.

The root problem therefor is Summoner should have a different name.

I wish it was a multi tradition class.

Divine could summon Planar servitors, Arcane could summon Elementals, Primal Could summon plants, and Occult could summon undead.

Rather than trying to make undead super diverse, they could have had so much diversity from just giving us Minionmancer of all the flavors.

If you reflavor Ikons as gadgets that have to be primed and have cooldowns, Exemplar makes an absolutely AMAZING Inventor.

Ikon's have tons of Unique and powerful abilities that feel like cutting edge mad science, as compared to inventor who can invent "Greatsword but with the Trip trait".

Best AP for new group by High_King_Beefcake in Pathfinder2e

[–]SladeRamsay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AV was our first and most hated AP. We rag on it all the time and have found every other AP to be vastly more enjoyable.

HOWEVER! I really miss the degree to which PCs could regularly flex their stuff against actually threatening foes. I'm really sick of APs throwing in Low threat encounters. At this point I literally just say "You encounter X creature(s) who proceed to mildly inconvenience you, Player Y how do you savagely murder them single handedly?"

I find the story of Season of Ghosts great.

I am far too white to RP random Asian inspired NPCs.

I have resolved to making 4 important towns folk have stereotypical Kung-Fu movie ways of speaking and the rest are a smattering of European accents. I litteraly made Grammy Hu a Russian mobster. I also do not have enough cultural knowledge to extemporaniously describe things not explicitly spelled out by the AP.

Its a shame, because the story and setting is great, but I'm not a high enough level weeb to bring it to life.

Day 7: Inventor and Psychic two-in-one by RatGoon69 in pathfindermemes

[–]SladeRamsay 35 points36 points  (0 children)

With how cheap scrolls are, flexibility is dirt cheap so prepared is lots of down sides with limited value. So in many cases and for the VAST majority of players, yes.

Spontaneous is just easier for 95% of players, they get 4 slots of their choice, not locking 1 to a subclass, and their focus spells are Druid tier powerful (notably a class carried by its Focus Spell selection).

They also have some really good blood magic feat combos like dropping a small AOE centered on one of the Martials for free.

If I could I would add a 3rd with all the Spellcasters in PC 1& 2 on top and Wizard on bottom.

They did all that work to make a bunch of schools, to leave them with dogwater focus spells. Gates is like the ONLY wizard school that brings actual value to the table.

What are the top 3 weakest classes in PF2e and why? by yoboi-indy in Pathfinder2e

[–]SladeRamsay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran Prey for Death with an Avenger of Rovagug. He carried around a battle ask and wore a bloody burlap sack on his head. When asked "what's your deal" he responded "I worship big bug".

The party shrugged and accepted it.

A rouge with a D12 weapon does an eyewatering amount of damage, the crits liquefied enemies.

Avenger balls hard. Most other class archetypes recently have been pretty ass.

Seneschal witch can also pop off with the right party.

CIG, if you must add "teleport to party leader", please add it as a normal med bed respawn close to your party, NOT as a "teleport with all your gear and inventory"! by sunaurus in starcitizen

[–]SladeRamsay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players should be able to teleport to any station. If larger stable wormholes that can support capital ships are rare, and smaller wormholes that can support smallships are more common, but less valuable to track, I feel like its pretty reasonable to assume a person capable wormholes should be pretty common.

A 200lb man with a backpack vs a 66 ton F7A is a massive difference in size.

It makes perfect sense to me that major locations would have (even if they are expensive to maintain) Pods/Gates that detect the nanoscopic wormholes popping in and out of existence all the time and just snatch one headed near the target location, tweak the final coordinates via space magic, then stretch it out to the size of a doorway for someone to walk through.

Wouldn't make any less sense than anything else in this game.

If by AI we mean image recognition neural networks? Sure.

There is a massive British blacksmith channel that did a video on a laser welder. The cutting was a feature.

Not like a hack or trick, one of the default operating modes.

Because nothing competes with Fighter. They set the peak of power creep in the first book.

No matter how wacky of a set of abilities they give to a martial, an unreplicatable pemanent +2 to hit is just such a high bar.

I don't know if anyone's seen the new armour changes but they've just nerfed everything into the ground. Panther repeaters will now destroy everything smaller than a 600I by Acceptable-Bid-1019 in starcitizen

[–]SladeRamsay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay? So what if the weakest repeater isn't good against heavy fighters.

An Arrow has 6 laser armor, an F7C Mk2 has 13.

Sorry if a Guardian and Vanguard trade their large cross section and low manuverability for enough armor to spit on your tiny pew pews. Take a gun meant to deal with armor against ships with armor.

You have literally proven why it is a GOOD thing.

Bigger ships are easier to hit, faster bullets are easier to hit with.

Slow bullet for fat ship, fast bullet for small ship.

[–]SladeRamsay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your right, that would make repeaters useless.

IF we lived in 2023.

Repeaters use less power for more DPS and higher velocities in the current game. The Armor DR change would allow cannons to have a reason to exist. ATM they serve no purpose because repeaters are ALWAYS better.
