[PF] Pathfinder Adventure Path

[TheTick]

:D  I've been using the 5.17.20 build of PCGen lately, which works well, and has almost everything from the PF SRD available.  And if you have any questions, feel free to ask as I've been building characters like crazy recently.

[Lotofsnow]

Hmmm... I could stand to make another character, what with my RL Pathfinder campaign taking a break to play Shadowrun.

I have no idea what I'll play though. Maybe an oracle. I guess it depends on what else we get.

[Porteiro]

Heh.  I was considering an oracle as well.

That's OK.  Making characters is fun, and there are plenty of character concepts to go around.

[Lotofsnow]

I'll consider you with dibs then, since you voiced your interest first. There are a ton of great classes in Pathfinder, that was just the first that came to mind.

[SpamHead]

Hey I just arrived, porteiro is my dad and I was thinking of playing a sorcerer.

[Porteiro]

Yup.  This is my oldest.  He's been itching to play a sorcerer for a while now.  I hope that you guys can indulge him.

[TheTick]

If the game I'm playing in ever gets off the ground (elsewhere) I'll be playing a draconic-bloodline sorc.

I'll have to take a look and start building a character later tonight after I get off work.   8)

I've been going with druid.

[TheTick]

Buncha spellslingers in here.  At least Pathfinder monks are tougher than their poor 3.5 selves.  (I'm not complaining, mind you, just commenting)

[Lotofsnow]

Well, I'll be going wild shape druid, but that's not for a few levels, unfortunately.

[SteveRogers]

This character won't be a bard.   ;D

I can consider switching to my Sacred Shield Paladin.  It's a very "tanky" build, with something close to a 4E style aggro feature even.

Also, I've been spending considerable mental energy researching and tweaking both the Crane-Style and Brawler-Style monk builds.  :)

[Lotofsnow]

So, I'm a bit confused about my druid animal companion. It has 2 hit dice. I imagine I would roll them, just as I would my druid. Correct?

[Phil]

The SRD has this to say:

How do I determine hit points for my animal companion?

Animal companions receive average hit points per hit die. For d8, the average is 4.5. Multiply 4.5 times the number of hit dice your animal companion has and round down. Recalculate hit points for your companion each time it gains additional hit dice. After its hit points are calculated, add in appropriate bonuses from its Constitution modifier, feats, and so on.

Also howdy, nice to meet ya :).
