Age of Ashes would be an option if you want dragons. It’s one of the older APs, but it’s a full 1-20 campaign. I haven’t run it yet, but from what I’ve read it needs a bit of work by the GM, particularly around tuning encounters as there are several that are overtuned. Fortunately there are lots of community resources to supplement/augment it.
1·3 months agoYour highest rank is based on your level. Technically this would give you a single rank four slot at level 9, a rank 5 slot at level 11, etc. without taking the expert or master spellcasting feats.
Yes, if you had spells from your sorcerer that overlapped with the mystery’s spells, you could cast them using the extra slot without taking the basic spellcasting feat.
True. That was probably a bad example. But if you picked up basic oracle spellcasting, that would let you cast the spells granted by your mystery.
So you’d get an extra slot at your highest rank. For basic spell casting, this would be one rank 3 slot at level 8, so with gift of power you’d have two slots, one that would only let you cast spells granted by your mystery.
The first part of the feat gives you an extra spell slot of your highest spell rank, but that slot can only be used to cast spells granted from your mystery. For an Oracle dedication, you’d need to take additional archetype feats to get access to Oracle mystery spells, e.g., https://2e.aonprd.com/Feats.aspx?ID=6220
If you also happen to pick up divine access or mysterious repertoire, then you can use this extra slot to cast spells granted by those feats as well.

From reading this, it doesn’t look like it would affect your other spells at all:
Your mystery grants you additional magic. You have an extra spell slot of your highest rank, which you can use only to cast one of your mystery’s granted spells, heightened to this rank.
Special If you have the divine access class feature or Mysterious Repertoire feat, you can cast spells that you learned from those abilities using the additional spell slot from Gifted Power.
I’d highly recommend joining the Foundry discord if you haven’t already. It’s very active, has channels for anything and everything, and people are generally helpful.
Their GitHub page might also help with technical details.
6·3 months agoYour math is off by three orders of magnitude. After one year, you’d have $66.8M.
I think it means you’re Gregnant. Or was it preganté?
My understanding is that for initiative, the Stealth roll doesn’t remain secret. This is the scenario I always envision:
PC goes ahead of the party to scout out a room or other location. They roll a secret stealth check before they move to avoid notice. If that stealth check beats all the Perception DCs of the NPCs, he’s able to scout successfully, being unnoticed by the NPCs. However, if that roll doesn’t beat the Perception DC of at least one NPC, I will cal for an initiative roll, using the secret stealth check as their initiative, thus revealing how well or poorly they rolled and letting them know that something has given them away.
The normal rules apply at this point. Anyone who’s perception DC is higher than the PCs initiative would treat them as undetected - meaning they’ve noticed something (a moving shadow, a small non-localized sound, etc.) and will act suspiciously, possibly moving towards what they noticed to investigate. Anyone whose perception DC is equal to or below the initiative roll would continue to treat them unnoticed.
If you’re planning on GMing, you’ll definitely want the GM Core, which is the remastered content. When Paizo did the remaster, they split the CRB into GM Core and Player Core, though they reorganised some of the classes. So Player Core is a blend of the CRB and the APG and Player Core 2 covers the rest.
Also, all of the rules and pretty much anything that isn’t specifically lore or settings is available on Archives of Nethys.
2·7 months agoI got mine from Effydesk and am extremely happy with it. It’s super sturdy with no wobble, quiet and smooth operation and has a hidden, built-in induction charger.
Gotta love 80s free-range parenting
