Yeah, they don’t get to legendary armor, but the item is the best.

PsiPrimeProductions @akesslerrpg.bsky.social · 8h

Best armor in terms of item. Armor inventors can get medium or light armor with a total bonus (item+dex) of +6. That’s like full plate without str penalty.

Ah, runesmith.

Oh no, I got into it with a few people on the PAIZO boards during playtest. One actively accused me of trolling when I dared to suggest soldiers weren’t ’complete garbage PAIZO should be ashamed of themselves.’

So I’m guessing, in O
Pathfinder terms, Su is an inventor or maybe investigator (with crafting) and the Kholo is an alchemist with an alchemical familiar?

#starfinder2e Hills that I will die on. Soldier is not bad. How some people sing the praises of fighter who ‘bonk accurate,’ but say soldier is boring for firing off area weapons baffle me. You don’t have to like them, but they are more interesting than fighters IMHO. 2e.aonsrd.com/classes/5-so...

Alchemist is a whole class unto itself, with subclasses focusing on healing, poisons, bombs (like alchemist fire) or mutagens.

1000% Yes, your inventor won’t be able to do as much damage as a barb, but your barb Isn’t going to be revers engineering runes or building weapons that can bypass demon/devil/construct armor all at once.

Arguably, commanders can now do it better with the ability to medicine with their int and medicine with their shield hand.

#pathfinder2e hills I will die on. Everyone should try playing a healer at least once. Doesn’t have to be a cleric; sorcs, animists, witches can all do it. But let us forever healers try out one of our other character concepts every once in a while. I promise you, healing is more fun than you think.

#pathfinder2e hills I will die on. The inventor class is good. Notice I didn’t say the best, but you can get the best armor in the game, 2 damage resistances (including spirit and void), and a solid damage boost to melee/ranged. Plus out of combat healing. 2e.aonprd.com/Classes.aspx...

#pathfinder2e hills I will die on. Timber sentinel is way too overpowered. Infinite at-level ranked spells that reduce damage is crazy. Ay Level 9, that’s like 50 temp HP a round perfectly divided among your party near it. Saw it no sell a campaign. WTF #paizo ? 2e.aonprd.com/Feats.aspx?I...

Plus piercing/slashing/piercing resist plus a really high fort and reflex DC.

#pathfinder2e hills I will die on. The wasp swarm is WAY too powerful for its level. Anyone who sends it up against a party of level 2s; even odds you have a character death (depending on party makeup.)

Final day I'm going to talk about fun #starfinder2e weapons. The Cardslinger is terrible, it's advanced, only does 1d4 damage . . . and I love it. I want to shoot playing cards at someone hard enough to hurt them. Someone please make this build work. #paizo 2e.aonsrd.com/equipment/we...

More fun #Starfinder2e weapons. The Shuriken Drone technically counts as a ‘gun.’ So an operative can chuck it at people for aim+str mod damage. Put some retrieval boosters on, and no need to reload ever! #paizohttps://2e.aonsrd.com/equipment/weapons/60-shuriken-drone

@mechaspacewitch.bsky.social requested more #starfinder2e art. Here’s a Solarian I drew up during a lull at work (not responsibilities shirked.) #paizo

Next up on my list of interesting #starfinder2e weapons, the scattergun. This simple weapon is a cone weapon, so even a mystic or Witchwarper with low dex has a chance to do some damage if they run low on spells. #paizo 2e.aonsrd.com/equipment/we...

Continuing on with my look at some #starfinder2e weapons, the bone scepter. This item is just great. Cold OR void damage on a melee weapon. that means it bypasses most swarm resistances. And few things will resist both damage types. #paizo 2e.aonsrd.com/equipment/we...

I guess this week it’s time to talk about fun #Starfinder2 weapons. The Doshko is a d12 2-handed parry weapon, which means it’s as strong as a greataxe but still gives you an excellent 3rd action to up your defenses. #paizo

Okay, but why the abs tho? (J/k, she looks fantastic. Just wondering how she slips a workout routine in between magic studies and keeping her firearm in good condition.)
