Re: OOC
It's wild shape (with some early access from my archetype), so unfortunately I can't do magical beast forms. I don't think there is a way to add magical beasts to the mix, but I can check.

Re: OOC
Thanks for the tip about Wands Taliesin. Will probably still take one, but will have to think it trough more first.

Re: OOC
What kind of terrain is the road we are travelling on? I picked "sickening entanglement" as a spell, but preparing that spell makes little sense say if we know that we are traversing a barren mountain.

Re: OOC
The road goes over mostly flat open fields, with some hills.  There's generally enough vegetation around to support an entangle spell.

Re: OOC
I don't think so. My question was a pre-emptive one. Since Tal is preparing his spells way before the encounter, but would also probably know what kind of terrain they will be travelling.

With that, he should be done though.

Looking at my expenses, maybe I should fit a Craft Wondrous Items in here somewhere. But my feat space is a bit tight, I still need like 2 feats to top this build off. Does anyone else consider taking an item creation feat in the near future?

Re: OOC
I may take that Feat next level? Planned to get Weapon Focus so I miss 5% less.

But ... Puck is shit at everything not related to making arrows/bows? Don't even have a Spellcraft skill. Heck, I didn't take my favourite Alchemy!

Though with Gorum letting us cooperate so Sesa have Alchemy, Taliesin could provide Spellcraft and then I could provide Craft Wondrous Item.

And then we make a nuke! :P

Re: OOC
The crafting rules let you use others w/o the crafting feat to provide requirements, yes. So we only need one copy of any particular crafting feat throughout the roster to get crafting rolling.

I'm more excited about getting a discount on my belt upgrade than on a nuke, but tomato tomato :P

Re: OOC
Then I would like to ask for an advice! What item crafting feat would be best for Puck to take?

Here are the options I contemplated:
-There are hollow-bullet style of arrows, that can be filled with Holy Water or a potion. That would mean Craft Potions would be choice to consider.

But Gorum gave moratorium on customizing items, thus I'm iffy. One thing is having a Fireball potion that explodes when vial is damaged, because auto-activation when outside of vial.

Another is having a potion-tipped arrow. Like the before-mentioned Fireball in arrow form. I think it would be pushing against rules Gorum established even with just potion-formed Fireball.

I, for example, would love potions of Vision of Body made for all aspects (to have all of them)!


Craft Wondrous Items have amazing utility, even when we are blocked from not-canon recipes. But it would, at best, cheapened our weakest items. Like my Efficient Quiver. It's nice touch but I wish to maximize utility we get from that Feat, yanno?

What would benefit the party the most? Scribe Scrolls? Craft Wand(so our Wizards can lob Fireballs everywhere)? Or the before mentioned CWI and CP feats.


Side note, are there books or something for Scrolls in Pathfinder? Saw such silly thing in one video game and grew curious. Imagine a book, but it's enchanted to absorb scrolls, and then you can mentally pick and cast from the absorbed library at your leisure while holding said book.

Re: OOC
Craft wonderous gives a discount on stat-boosting items; eg Belts and Headbands as well as Cloaks of Resistance, so 2/6ths of the 'Big Six'; keeping your stats as high as possible and your saves as high as possible are great paths to longevity as adventurers. As a kineticist, my belt of con is far and away my strongest item. Same to be said for headbands for our primary casters.

There are also more wonderous items than every other kind of magic item put together, I'd be willing to bet, so its hard to beat on the flexibility.

For your build in specific, if you want to enhance your ranged attacks, Craft Magics Arms and Armor is gonna be your best bang for buck; +1 enhancement on your bow is the most efficient DPS spend anytime it is affordable, pretty much.

It also enables you to craft specific weapons; there are specific arrows you could be utilizing like https://aonprd.com/MagicWeapon...temName=Vine%20Arrow on the low end or https://aonprd.com/MagicWeapon...ame=Sizzling%20Arrow on the medium end and end-game slinging https://aonprd.com/MagicWeapon...e=Blightburn%20Arrow for big numbers.

Party wide, I think Wonderous is definitely the first priority, followed by Arms & Armor, then probably Rings or Amulets. Wands and scrolls are fine imho but they also tend to not be hugely expensive; they also have real diminishing returns for higher level spells, most of the best wands and scrolls are already affordable, even at double price. If it is a wand of fireballs your after though, yeah, its a bit prohibitive w/o the crafting to bring the price down.

Scroll book, yeah there is an equivalent https://aonprd.com/MagicWondro...tful%20Scroll%20Case

And a more expensive version that just absorbs spells to create a 'scroll' on a charge basis  https://aonprd.com/MagicWondro...ablet%20of%20Arustun

Re: OOC
I wasn't really planning to take any item crafting feats in the near future, but might be persuaded to take craft wondrous items. It would definitely be useful, and it would make sense for Koyrai to be the one to take the feat.

If Koyrai happens to die in the next encounter though, I was thinking my next character might be a construct crafter of some sort. Which would include taking the feats Craft Wondrous Items, Craft Magic Arms and Armor, and Craft Construct.

Re: OOC
Thank you for a very good analysis, Sesa. You convinced me that party will benefit the most from Create Wondrous Items feat. More than from Weapon Focus for Puck, that is. :)

Kyorai? Why so defeatist? If Puck takes CWI, you could totes take remaining requirements for golem crafting. But then I wanna a armor-golem! So Puck could totally-not-Gundam peeps.^^

I believe Koyrai is now ready for the next fight.

I just wait for a final judgement from Gorum, too. :)

Patagogi:

Some of them, without a doubt. Remember the crafting time-limit. We have 4 weeks between adventures, each time. If you want Armor+5 of Heavy Fortification? Takes hundred days, on average. So wait of two to three adventures. With 3 crafters cooperating, of course. :)

If we survive to lvl 7? I agreed with our witch and wizard to take Craft Wondrous Items for Puck. It would let us significantly cut into cost of universal items we have, like my Efficient Quiver. Worthy trade-off but won't be immediately available, you remember my craft rolls with the arrows?

Results won't be as disappointing, but slow-ish. Anyhow, without Craft Magic Arms and Armors we are collectively rather fucked anyway! ;)

Re: OOC
@Patagogi:  Nobody has taken any item creation feats for this level, from what I can tell.

@Everyone:  So far, Puck and Koyrai have confirmed being done their character sheets.  Is everyone else ready to go?

Sorry, I've been dealing with a lot IRL lately due to work and other stuff, so I've been unresponsive and a bit delayed. I did everything BUT shop for Veana, which I'll try to get to either today or tomorrow at the latest.

Thanks for your patience! :)

Since we will be fighting against humans? Some anti-poison, I think. Or grenades, grenades are good.
