I just meant being agile in in general, not in any specific system. I was thinking about that while writing it though.

For fun, maxing Acrobatics in Pathfinder, would be Acrobatics 20 with the skill as a class skill with the feat Skill Focus and some Boots of Elvenkind. We’ll say Dexterity 20 with all 5 points from leveling, +5 from a book, and +6 from a belt, adding up to a 36(+13). So, you’re looking at Acrobatics 47. Rolling dice, that’s anywhere from 49 (1 being a critical failure) a critical success with a huge 67.

ijusthaventearnit replied to your post: i’m having trouble with my new character, which is an Asamir. i cant seem to find any other picture other than the one that’s in the beastie book. any thoughts on this breed.

thanks, this helps some, like spelling the name right so the search actually nets results. thanks james!

No prob! Stop by again anytime!

For artwork, just google-image-searching for Aasimar will net you some images. They’re basically half-human, half-celestial and if you search for “half-celestial” you’ll get more images.

As for the race itself, they’re made for Divine classes like Clerics, Druids, Inquisitors, Oracles, Rangers, and even Paladins. That +2 Wisdom/+2 Charisma with no negatives is pretty huge, they’d even make good Sorcerers and Bards. Daylight once per day is a handy little utility, and they have Darkvision, so they’ll never have to worry about dank, dark spaces. The resistances are a nice boon. +2 Diplomacy is ok, but +2 Perception is really nice, as it’s the most used skill. All-in-all, they’re pretty good as races go.

While they don’t have a lot else for the moment, there is the Advanced Races book coming out this Summer-ish, which will have more content on the Bestiary races, though that’s a ways off.

Hope this helps! I’ll share more tips if you have more information about the character.

how much dough do you have tied up in PF

Something like $350-400 dollars. Every core book plus many of the other books. Not as much as, say, a subscriber would have, but a lot. And actually, there are two core books coming out this year, at least, along with the physical copy of Distant Worlds and I’m sure one or two more.

The fourth planet in the solar system is like Mars, including John Carter of Mars stuff and the Martians from War of the Worlds.

This book is WIN!

I’ll get to that drawing after reading this. The first part of the first chapter alone makes this book win.

I’m not, there’s always Pathfinder!

Magus Update

On Sunday, we RPed my friend’s Pathfinder campaign and I actually got to play my Magus. He’s a level 5, vanilla Magus, and he’s a total baller. I rarely use the word “baller” so you know he’s doing well.

The party, just fyi, consists of a Half-Elf Druid, Half-Elf Ranger, Human Rogue, and my Elf Magus.

First, we had to go stop a mysterious force raiding a caravan in a desert to the west. During the first night out, we were attacked by dinosaurs, 3 giant velociraptors to be precise. My Magus killed two of them. One was a critical hit Shocking Grasp Spellstrike that one-shotted it. The other was Sneak Attacked a couple times by the Rogue, then polished off with another Shocking Grasp Spellstrike and an AoO.

Next, we had some Magma Elementals, which went down quickly. More Shocking Grasp Spellstrike action.

Then, we met an Efreeti that was raiding the caravans with his elemental traps and we bargained and discussed things with him, learning a great Red Dragon has him as a thrall to collect money because the dragon’s greedy. In investigating the dragon’s lair, we found a young Red Dragon, killed it after some debate over whether or not having a great Red Dragon momma pissed at us. Ultimately, no one really cared and it had a horde of 10,000 GP, so my character ended up taking out most of its hit points, the Ranger critical Called Shot the dragon’s eye, and the Rogue did some slicing too.

After we finished that, we investigated a mysterious portal that linked to he Plane of Earth where the Ranger found a staff that lets him control the clockwork creatures that inhabit a small section of it.

Finally, we were invited to a party at a swanky mansion because of our caravan rescue. We promptly got smashed and we were loud and boisterous. We saw the daughter of the person throwing the party try to spike his drink with something, then I noticed some enchanted servants and guards being mildly evil. The daughter was taken to a back room where she was beaten but the guards. We then, drunkenly, attacked and rescued her. Unfortunately, the rescue also looks like a kidnapping. So, we ran to an abandoned warehouse, where we hope to ask the daughter what’s going on once she’s recovered. That’ll be the next session on this campaign.

My Magus’s updated design includes some dinoskin, Boots of the Elvenkind, and a +1 Mithril Buckler. He’s a bit tanned from the desert and his leathers are a little matted. He now has a nice suit in his Handy Haversck, which is also full of a bunch of random cool stuff.

ijusthaventearnit replied to your post: ijusthaventearnit replied to your post:…

yeah by BAB is +2 right now, so that doesnt sound like a problem, so quick draw seems pretty moot, rapid reload still sounds critical, but i still want to grab two feats at level 5 so when i hit level 7 i can splurge and pick up the extra bomb feat.

More bombs are never a bad thing.

Stay tuned because I’m doing an Alchemist class write up on all the fun stuff you can do with the class, along with interesting feats and combos. I totally forgot I was gong to do those until I found the file with the short versions of each.
