It is entirely possible; I have tried to make various of incarnations of this character (with the same name) multiple times, the games just always seem to die quickly.

You have to pick them as an alternative class feat starting at 2+

I feel you. I'm Goon. I've been stuck in a cycle myself, so no judgment. I'm so used to reskinning characters since I never really get a chance to play them.

Do you need to have the paid version?

In reply to Duhb Scathy (msg # 178):

I dont think so. You just use the drop down menu on the top left corner when selecting second level class feats.

Hello All,

I was just accepted to join this upcoming adventure.  I have RPG experience but never had the chance to play P2E. So I am hoping to both be apart of a good tale and to gain experience with the rules. I do want to say that I have dyslexia so I apologize beforehand for any odd grammar that may appear if I don't catch it.  I'll start on my character and ASAP.

Looking forward to gaming with you all.

I will be playing a monk also as PF2E IMO has the best monk in any " DND lineage" game.

GM Question can we use the  the rules on page 196 of the Gamemastery Guide:

where most or all of the power comes from the character and not their gear.

The idea is that my character's monk faction TENDS to rely on their own skill and not magic items.  This rule variant allows players to progress at the same rate as those with magic items.

I am currently referencing some advice from a friend and considering what I might do for my setup. Feeling frustrated by the 'buy x many feats before doing the another dedication' thing in my outlining.

Friend suggested I look at the Ranger archetype, and I can see some appeal.

@DM - any objection to allowing Medicine Skill Feats count as 'Medic' Feats for the purposes of being able to go into another Dedication feat?

I like the idea of starting with Medic Dedication at level 2, then grabbing Ranger Dedication at 4 by having my medicine skills under my belt by then. I'm thinking of maybe Animal Companion at 6 for my 1-2 ranger feat, then Far Shot by level 8 (which will, combined with monk, let me use my monk features with Monastic Archery Style out to 60 feet with a shortbow)

But yeah, I'm thinking I want to lean toward a very archer monk/medic/ranger feel...

Thoughts?

Have you considered Herbalist instead of medic? You don't get Battle Medicine, but honestly I don't think that's super useful anyway, but you do get the ability to craft some alchemical items using nature.

Just gave it a look, prefer the medicine tree of stuff, I think. I love the high quality out of combat healing, and with medic and risky surgery (or a variant that does bashing damage instead of slashing flavored as pressure point styled stuff),  it's pretty solid out of combat healing, and with ward medic and continual recovery, she can basically handle the party healing needs outside of a fight. I have a monk in another game that leans on the same medicine style, and it's fantastic, she is the party healer.

Just checking in!

I am still learning the finer details of pf2e myself so let me check out page 196 but I’m a pretty agreeable GM and I don’t foresee any issues.

@Sani ; sounds good to me, when I go over your character sheet I’ll take a closer look though.

Been very busy at work and home my daughter had a cold and demanded lots of attention, but she’s better now so I’ll have more time to let things done now.

Appreciate everyone’s patience!

Okay, I think my character sheet is finished.

Thanks.

Hope the kid is feeling better.

I see that some of you have larger pictures in your "The Cast" profile. How did you manage that?

@Kor

To insert images, use <img src="image address">

the Image Address is the link to whatever image you want to use. I upload my stuff to imgbb.com, then use the HTML formatted address. You can also align the image by adding "align=left" or right. Hope that helps!

I've never seen so many black characters or so many monk fans in a single game. That's AWESOME!

Also, how were we going to divide parties? I may have missed this, but are we doing so in-game?

And CS waiting for review.

I think in the previous game we were going to to be divided in-game. I could be wrong, it's been a while.
I am waiting for a response from the GM to a character question and then I'll have my sheet up asap after that.

I am a fan of monks, even if I'm not playing one!

I believe my character sheet is now finished and ready to be approved. Pathbuilder2 helped me figure out some of the mechanics so thank you for mentioning that Wungarr.

Ended up going with the RuneScarred archetype since it matched the tattoo theme I wanted for the character.

In reply to Jafad Embereye (msg # 190):

No problem!

:)

Wow, didn't realize things were jumping so fast! I'll get caught up and posting tonight. A name change will be coming along with my character!

Thanks for the info Bash.  Agreed on you character observations!

Yea she’s better, but she gave me the flu haha thankfully I got tested for covid yesterday and I was negative. I was worried I’d gotten covid because my boss tested positive. Wear your masks guys! I consider myself more conservative and I’m not a fan of the vaccine myself but he’s really sick because he refused to wear one.

Finally got through everyone’s sheets, most of y’all look good I’m still waiting for 3-4 people to finish up. I’m not trying to rush anyone but for the sake of getting things started again let’s wrap those sheets up. It looks like some of you are still at level 1, don’t forget to include your level 2 advancements since we are starting at level 2. If you really need more time let me know in a PM and I can set your character sheet aside until you’re ready that way you can still roleplay until we run into the first dice rolls.

I’ll be replying to everyone’s Private Messages today, and should have the new IC thread up either tonight or tomorrow if everything goes well.

And yes, you guys will start together but will be split up relatively soon after.

Good luck and stay safe! I think I have everything in order, but I'll keep my eyes open for feedback.

Reservations about the vaccine in mind, I had mine months ago and aside from feeling a little sore the day after, I've been utterly fine. The covid situation in the UK is still a bit rough though.

Just to check, are we still going ahead?

I am looking forward to this game, just need a couple things cleared up with the GM.

I’m sorry guys, really dropped the ball on this one. I am back on the site, I got a new job that lets me work from home (never tried that before) and I’ve had lots of free time lately so I’m really torn about what to do with the game I just wanted to apologize for wasting y’all’s time like that!

I will be deleting the game shortly, I plan to stay on the site but I have given up on Pathfinder, I’ve tried several times to GM it and it’s never worked out, and at this point I believe it’s best to stick with systems I know. If anyone wishes to save anything please do so, as I don’t intend to restart the game.
