  • With Ironclad, I really love when you get a good strength build going. Demon Form early game is so cash money

    With the Silent, Poison builds are my go to, but if you get a good something going with Shivs in the beginning, it’s so much fun.

    The Defect, I recently defeated A3 with a channel lightning build - where you channel for every time you get hit. I was channeling, i think 6 every hit and had +4 focus, so when the heart did the 4x12 attack, it destroyed itself. Felt incredible.

    I haven’t yet figured out a solid strat for The Watcher, but divinity is fun and I enjoy going full wrath, but having enough defense to back that up proves difficult.

    In terms of similar games, if I’m feeling a little more casual/braindead, Peglin is a lot of fun with a similar deckbuilding style. I have yet to figure out any really good builds and I think some balls are definitely better than others, but it’s still fun and super casual.




  • So. Much. Pathfinder 2e. And I love it.

    I just had a session one for a Wednesday night campaign with a character I'm so excited to play. I have a Friday night campaign I really love with a great character. And my Sunday campaign is marching steadily onward - although I cannot wait to finish Gatewalkers so I can homebrew. Gatewalkers is fine and it's a lot of fun (the reveal in act 3 of the 1st book was incredible), but I hate running out of books. I love homebrew and I miss it dearly.

    I've been trying to get together my friends IRL to play the beginner's box because I don't think I can ever go back to 5e after experiencing the ease at which PF balances everything. But schedules are, of course, the conflict.











  • I can’t say if the quality is still the same, but I bought a Chromebook when they first came out for $99 and that little buddy has lasted me a decade now. It’s seen me through a deployment, a degree, several moves, and has been through a load of abuse and come out the other side working as spiffy as day one, minus some scuff on the screen. (Unfortunately Google has recently aged it out, but I’ll find a use for it with a virtual machine perhaps).

    I imagine most little netbooks are similarly built and can withstand a boatload, although their computing power definitely lacks.




  • I absolute love the action system from PF2e as well and I’m so super stoked to hear they’re working that into Starfinder.

    From what I saw, the class they put out in that “playtest” sounds pretty awesome. I don’t think it’s really an answer to a PF fighter, but it is awesome to have a Heavy with some AOE and crowd control. I think it needs some tweaking, but I am not nearly good enough at balance and game design to suggest what.

    But it being compatible also hopefully means the enemies can be used interchangeably in some ways because those laser wolves are amazing.
