Goblin Party @ My Brain 24/7 | A week shy of 33 before Cohost closed. Cis, ACAB forever, Trans Rights Are Human Rights forever.
RIP Cohost 2024. You were the best social media site to have ever been done. Long live eggbug. If you're seeing this in the future, on some archive, be kind to others. It's the only way things get better.
Links in bio.
Spurred on by the guttering death rattles that emanated from Played my first one-shot tonight in PF2e, after years of D&D5e, and, my fucking god, it was just better, for what D&D5e fails in literally every way.
I played a Skeleton Alchemist Bomber that had all the foulest bombs, AND negative-friendly healing.
His name was E.D. Expiry Date.
Absolute Fuckboy.`
Glad you had a great experience! I adore the heck out of PF2E, precisely because you can make ridiculous characters (like a skeleton alchemist) and they can coexist well alongside Bob the Human Fighter.
It's also that we've had this running joke for maybe a year or two now, where every single mechanical or ludonarrative gripe we have in D&D5e, we (read: mostly me) often come up with rulings or homebrew ways to get around it, then we check PF2e, and find... They've fixed not only the gripe, but also the underlying systemic mechanics that caused the gripe in the first place.
And since we're rubbing up against the mechanical limits of 5e to the extent where we'd blown CR calculations out of the water by lv5, and are facing challenges deadly for parties 2-5 levels above us, we're... Ready for something more balanced, ironically.
