Hello, title. I have been playing pf2e coming on 2 years now. Unfortunately, I have never enjoyed character creation or progression in this system. I like playing with my group, but would rather never again make a decision when it comes to character options....
Basically, yeah. It feels like any time I pick a feat or spell, it’s just bad. Every combat I feel useless. I asked some of the more savvy players in my group for help, and we completely revamped my character sheets and handwaived it as a giant retrain. Now my characters don’t suck, but I also feel detached from them because the options I picked for my character concepts aren’t part of the build anymore.
That’s why I was hoping to find a library of characters that I could pick from, to at least find one I can get behind.
I’ll use our Strength of Thousands game as the example. We are level 8, and our party consists of a wizard, a witch, a ranger, and an oracle (me). I have her built as a support character because that made sense with the party comp and oracular curse (cosmos).
Needle darts and electric arc are my two reliable damage cantrips, but they are outperformed by the other caster’s spells and the ranger’s weapon attacks. My noteworthy leveled damage spells are inner radiance torrent (signature) and Ymeri’s mark, but their damage never seems worth the cost when compared to supporting my allies. Particularly because my best damage is less than other players’ average.
Most of my turns usually focus on buffing and debuffing, or healing when necessary. Some frequent options off the top of my head are:
*Protective Ward
*Fear (+3)
*Bon mot
*Heal (Signature)
Often I try to apply a status only to learn the target already has a status so mine doesn’t matter. I guess it’s just frustrating because no matter what niche I try to occupy in the party, I’m always outperformed by someone else.
This was also the case with 2 different druids I’ve made and a barbarian in other campaigns.
Terraria was released in 2011, and still gets free updates with similar frequency to Stardew. Minecraft alpha was released in 2010.
Sure, Eric won the cozy farming genre. He is also clearly passionate about the game. Maybe looking out for his own health is exactly why he continues to dabble with the game.
I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It’s such a small specific thing, one I’d never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now....
You didn’t say, “can’t be”, thats why I said it’s like you said that.
We didnt call it, “incel” 100 years ago when someone acted like an incel. If someone was making jokes and promoting a mindset at the time that would now be labeled “incel”, then we can retroactively say the ideology they promoted fits our current label.
I am in the same conversation, and I hear what you’re saying. I don’t think you sincerely understood what I was saying the first time.
Yeah that’s very fair. I wouldn’t go so far as to call someone an incel just because they said one thing that an incel may also say. Were he alive today I imagine he’d find incels good material for jokes.
If it helps, I can’t recommend this resource highly enough. In 3 months I achieved results close to my goal after poor results of on and off practice for the last few years.
Good luck! I will qualify that I was able to have 3 separate 10-15 minute practice sessions a day, spaced out 3 or more hours from each other. Getting the practice in consistently helped a lot.
Good resources for build guides?
