What would you like to try out?
2EI want to play the typical commissar with sword (mace) and pistol, I’m going to play commander, but it seems like it isn’t built for dual-wielding, we’re going to use starfinder firearms because the 2e ones suck, but still not sure how reloading is going to work with two full hands. Also, for aesthetic, I really don’t like putting the banner on a small one-handed weapon, I’m thinking of picking Plant Banner just for looks, but then that’s a whole other problem with feats.Any suggestions?
>>978957712nd edition just added "3 Kobolds in a Trench Coat" ancestryhttps://2e.aonprd.com/Heritages.aspx?ID=433
So I'm thinking of doing an evil campaign in a custom setting for PF2E. I have access to the monster book 1 right now, will be getting 2 later. How should I handle do gooder parties. Scour the books for a low level of that class and use those abilities on a generic splat page. Or could I just roll characters for them to go up against in pathbuilder and use that. How OP would the second option be, I think that would be more fitting for a boss or his LT.
>>97896324Both work. Monsters built with PC rules are, kind of definitionally, about an equivalent-level threat as a monster of that level. The main reason it's not a best practice is just because building a PC is a lot more work than playing mad-libs and filling in the stats with the creature-builder rules, especially for an enemy you might only use for a single combat. It won't break anything though, and is fun to do sometimes. A party of NPCs built this way is about the same threat level as a handful of monsters of the same level, and you can just plug them into the encounter builder rules for XP and stuff. The player-built NPCs will have lower numbers than most equivalent-level creatures will, since the creature-builder rules kind of take as a given that a particular enemy will only have a couple of unique things to do and so they tune up their math a little bit to make up for it. Player-built NPCs will have worse base stats but more gimmicks.If you're looking to file ff the serial numbers off an existing statblock, there's also a couple hundred purpose-built NPCs in NPC Core, which you can find the full stats for on AoN: https://2e.aonprd.com/Creatures.aspx?include-sources=npc%20core&sort=level-asc&display=table&columns=creature_family+source+rarity+size+trait+level+hp+ac+fortitude+reflex+will+perception+sense+speed
>>97896378Thanks, First time I DMed PF2e I used a player built oracle for the final boss, but they found all the weakness mcguffins and I rolled like shit all fight so it felt a little one sided. Later on on another I had a goblin, made to be the predator, hunting them and it just JOBBED one player suddenly and I was like eesh.Thanks for the advice though, I'm still not sure if the group will want PF2e or SF2e for the next game we do, I'm just hoping it's pathfinder, because I like it more, at least more then SF1st edition.

>>97893936>>97894591>>97894746Why are you like this
>>97895720>most fantasy doesn't explicitly assert that women are all vain lying whores.Well no shit. That's the FANTASY. I'd love to see a world where all women aren't vain, lying, whores. That would be a wonderful place. Hence, fantasy.Of course, since all women ARE vain, lying, whores, we know that any setting in which they are not such is clearly an unrealistic setting, and that hurts immersion.

>>97892324The Thran and The Brothers War are great. Prequel/beginning of the artifacts cycle and also the best in that series. Covers the rise of Yawgmoth and Urza vs Mishra.Ice Age cycle (The Gathering Dark, Eternal Ice, Shattered Alliance) I loved in high school. Jodah and Jaya Ballard are fun to read.Chainer's Torment is my favorite, great story and you can treat as a self contained novel if you want. Chainer and Kamahl are bros.
>>97892324Not the best but I think the weatherlight crew is overhated. The rath stuff is good and Mercandian Masques is a fun fish out of water adventure. Invasion block is sadly proto avengers endgame despite being good in game.
>>97892324Seconding the Brothers' War, Grubbkino is always worth a read. For pre-revision I'm particularly partial to Ashes of the Sun, but if you're not in the mood for Hurloon minotaur politics it's not likely to appeal to you. For nuWalker content, Agents of Artifice and Test of Metal are the only ones I can recommend, but I did stop reading after Scars of Mirrodin's rather dreadful novel.My most controversial pick would be the Onlsaught cycle, books so divisive that they were officially retconned and remain despised by a lower class of intellects too base to appreciate unmen, angel-leopard-centaurs or Jeska's absolute clusterfuck of a journey. Every day I lament being in the timeline that Yawgmoth's reveal was retconned and we got the unbelievably gay nuPhyrexia instead of the true Phyrexia's return
for me it was fallout

How does Apprentice Illusion Magician's discard effect work with Diffusion Wave-Motion? Like if my opponent has three monsters out, do I get the 2000 atk boost while hitting just one of them, or does it apply against all three monsters?
>>97895468Each attack from Diffusion Wave Motion is a separate attack and Apprentice Illusion Magician's effect only applies to a singular damage calc.
>>97895535Awesome, thanks. I was pretty sure that's how it worked, but wanted to check.
>>97891930I tried to make it work too, but skeletal soldier's "also, you cannot Special Summon during the turn you activate either of this card's effects, except Insect, Plant, or Reptile monsters" means you either stick to RIP end board pieces, or you give up on what is pretty much the best ragnaraika card.And that's not the only issue, evil seed is not searchable nor you can bridge to it with mitsurugi (plant link can do it with jasmine), but you can alleviate this issue somewhat by maxing out seed and bloom, and also running as many lonefire blossom as you want. The issue with this however is that you always want aramasa to take the normal summon (it can also be manju/lamia, depends on how much of an oldfag/monstergirl fucker you are), because it leads to the 3 ritual snakes, 3 level 4 bodies and either purification or another copy of prayers. Evil seed only leads to stag sovereign/chain coils and hunting dance.Another issue ragnaraika has, is that in order to special summon evil seed, you need a discard. And it has to be a RIP card, it can't just be a random handtrap. If you start with bloom instead, you will need TWO discards.Mind you, i'm not saying that ragnaraika is bad, it's actually a good engine in traptrix because that deck tends to die if their normal summon gets negated, so tossing a random traptrix to special summon seed and get 2 extra interactions out of it is a fair trade. It's also a great starter in plant link, a 60 card pile that has been fine tuned to get the most out of DRNM and set up a nearly unbreakable board. Mitsurugi has better things to do with all the bodies it shits out.

>>97895935Definitely not
>>97895545New to mtg. My favorite color is blue. How do I play it?
>>97896362Usually blue is part of a control or tempo plan. Control wants to shut down opponents from winning the game, tempo wants to be efficient on the board and close out the game quickly while disrupting the opponent's impactful plays. You're in luck, as blue (and blue/red in particular) is currently extremely strong right now. You can check out meta decks at various places like https://www.mtggoldfish.com/metagame/standard#paper

>>97893666Hey, Satan, make a proper post. Explain why you look for that explicitely, save it on a notepad, post once every couple of months. If a GM is undecided, he may decide to accomodate you. And it might sparks one's curiosity.It might not get a reply this very thread, but since the alternative is "never", provides a bump, and is nigh effortless (if you ctrl+c / ctrl+v after the first thread, what have you got to lose?
>>97896366>>978959464chan being buggy. Sorry for the doubleposting.
>>97893666DSP is alot of fun but despite how much i love psionics it would take a really exceptional DM for me to want to go back to 3.PF i rarely find combat to challange my characters which is what im looking for when im stacking strength. FFd20 looks fun too. I lowkey want to DM a custom digimon ruleset

Traditional games?
Players, how do you write you character backstories? Are there any patterns you've noticed in your writing.I noticed that when I'm making a backstory, I have a habit to make the inciting incident something sad, even if its not super tragic. I would like to hear how others managed to give their characters goal while having them stay happy.DMs, what kind of backstories do you like? Was there any that you really enjoyed? Any type of backstories you hate?
>>97895354The backstories of my characters are pieced together through character options, and anything irrelevant to actually playing the game is either glossed over or ignored.When I sit down to play a game, I'm not there to write a book.
>>97895354Everyone can appreciate an origin story.
>>97895354I usually just come up with a one or two sentence backstory to explain why my character is on the adventure.>He got caught stealing a magical artifact and now has to work off his debt to society>He is a noble running away from an arranged marriage. Made a pact with an eldritch being and now is trying to find a way out of it. >He was a criminal turned cleric and now feels he has a duty to redeem other sinners. >He is a Mage-Knight in service to the kingdom trying to gain accolades to his name in order to approach his love's father for her hand in marriage.And then I just fill out details while playing. It does land me in some trouble with my GM since I tend to make stuff up on the fly and so sometimes my story doesn't match with what I said previously because I need to work on my note taking but it's gotten me through enough games.
>>97895802>Does your character have any family?>Yes a mother whom he loves very much.>Okay she is now imperilled by the wandering momsnatcher >HOW DARE YOU THREATEN MY CHARACTER'S MOM? IF I HAD KNOWN SHE'D BE USED AS A CHEAP PLOT DEVICE I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD ONE!Help me understand this mindset. What is the purpose of the family members if not to be used as cheap plot devices and character motivation? Do you want to roleplay interactions with your fictional mom, do you want mom to become a recurring NPC? What's the deal? I will populate my character with any amount of relatives and important people and defend them to the death, because I think that's a good way to create some narrative stakes. When I run I appreciate that, so why do people revolt against it?
>>97895354Try playing games for once.

>>97895748Just use the 100 card boxes. A lot of 100 card boxes are actually too small for 100 cards, at least for my double sleeved cards. The only use for 100 card boxes for me has actually been for my 60 card decks with token and sideboard.
>>97894481That's cool, I really need to read the stories of MTG
>>97894203The Demon works actually. Because adamantine, when you mine it, you open up Hell and the demons come for your shit, as the image shows a demon standing over a dead dwarf.Secret Rendezvous is because vampires often tempt your dwarves to secret meetings that you're not made aware of.Communal Brewing being a tavern instead of the actual brewery is a bit weak though.

>>97896331Also new starter box is coming out soon.
>>97851217Caseless rounds are tough. Propellant needs to be stable enough such that barrel heat buildup doesn’t cook off rounds without pulling the trigger, but also not so brittle that it gets damaged by less than ginger handling. The bonus of cased ammunition is that some waste heat is ejected with the case, the case provides insulation against a hot chamber and so mitigates a runaway cook-off, the case expands against the chamber walls when fired thereby creating a gas seal for more efficient energy down the barrel and less fouling into the action, cased rounds are also durable. Large benefits for a little weight.
