Welcome to /r/Pathfinder, a subreddit for the Society-offshoot of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Pathfinder Society (or PFS) is a weekly organized campaign, typically played at a local game store or similar venue. You can find more information on PFS at the official about page on Paizo's site.

Full explanation of the history of the "split" can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Pathfinder_RPG/comments/1970yw/z/c8lj1xd

To head off the usual questions:
* No, you can't just merge subreddits.
* No, I'm not closing /r/Pathfinder_RPG and redirecting everyone over here.
* No, I'm not closing this subreddit and opening another one.
* Yes, I do suck. And I am dumb.

So continuing on with a new monthly appreciation with the Third Party. We don't often think about Third Party and Pathfinder Society going together, but can you imagine the game without Pathbuilder or Archives of Nethys?

Who are your favorite third party providers? Character builders, online rules, apps, background sounds, or that random spreadsheet that makes your life easier. Open everyone's eyes to your favorite third party accessory and how it made an impact to you!

Hello everyone, I'm a newcomer who just started with Pathfinder. I want to experience the complete PFS1 scenarios from Season 0 through Season 10. Is there a recommended play order that makes sense both story-wise and level-wise?

I've noticed that some scenarios with connected storylines span across different seasons. Does this mean it would be more suitable to play them cross-season rather than going season by season?

So the only PFS I've ever played was the couple sessions of the beginner box on discord a while back, and even then that wasn't quite PFS with all the character building rules. At the time I played an elf nephilim diabolic sorcerer, which was fairly normal and didn't have anythnng weird going on. I like to make characters though, and I have a few OC babies that I would like to play in PFS, but I don't want my less optimized flavorful choices to make people mad.

So, would you be upset to see a draconic sorcerer with 3 str and 1 dex for an AC of 14 at lvl 1 at your table? How problematic would a mostly backline character be with super low AC?

Evening friends. Is anyone else having issues accessing Organized Play on the website? Neither my pre-store upgrade or post-upgrade passwords are working and trying to reset just ends on an error page. Is this just me or a known thing we just need to be patient about?

*edit* I was able to get a password reset sent this time, working fine now

Hey!

Which version of Pathfinder you prefer, and why?

I hear many people say 1e is more complex. How can this be, since the 2e uses the 3-action-economy, which in my eye makes things a LOT more versatile and complex in battle. Is it the character build that feels more complex, then?

I got a 1e Beginner Box, I'm loving the content in there. I've also looked into the 2e as well, and it looks pretty neat. But I'm just learning thru the 1e to see what's the hype about around it. I'm more into solo-play.

This is to allow artists to still advertise while not flooding the sub with advertisement.

I'm creating my first character for pathfinder society and I'm a bit confused. Do you need to have the book to get and play an ancestry/heritage boon that uses things from non-core sources

Can we PLEASE get a slinger dedication? Notably a dedication feat that makes slings not have the reloading property, like a quick reload situation so that you can use them in the same circumstance as bows, for example using the rangers hunted shot.

Slings are such a badass weapon historically, and I think we need to really explore that aspect of warfare in at least SOME roleplaying game.

That said, do any of you guys have a recommendation within the game as it is right now that would best benefit a sling wielding character?

So continuing on with a new monthly appreciation with the volunteers. If you aren't aware, the whole campaign is operated by a small group of employed workers who manage the volunteer staff.

Who are your favorite volunteers? Gamemasters, Venture-Agents, Venture-Captains, RVC's, or that random person in your lodge that keeps the goblins/kobolds/leshy/skittermanders herded. Open everyone's eyes to your favorite volunteer and how they made an impact to you!

I honestly don't see how you access uncommon and rare ancestry feats in pathfinder 2e? Am I missing something?
