I think you are off with true strike for sure, shillelagh as well but that is more for builds around it. But random wizard with a cross bow and true strike, at level 1, shoots as accurate as firebolt etc but hits for 1d8+3, and they can swap to melee ranged. 1d8+3(7.5) is better than even toll of the dead's d12(6.5). Level 5, they hit for 1d8+1d6+4, average damage 12 vs toll of deads 13, at probably 8 when you cap your int at 20 true strike catches up. At 11 on toll does more damage unless that wizard has a magic crossbow then it depends on the crossbows magic but in any event it wont be much less. And I'd say it being an attack roll vs a save pulls it ahead. And it will be outpacing firebolt up to 11 similarly, and at 11 firebolt just matches it. Sure at 17 firebolt may take the lead if there is no magic crossbow in play, but at 17 who is using a cantrip for attacks other than a warlock.

Imagine the trash who support this woke DEI mind virus

Hi😊

How do you do that I can't do it

Instead of increasing the radius for Circle of the Sea, I like allowing it to be cast on other players and then the subclass capstone can just be you can have it on two players at once.

So since you only come at this from a 5e perspective, I think you misunderstood many things about Solarian being based off of Str. Combat maneuvers like Shove, Disarm, Trip, etc etc are things any character can do by default, are extremely useful in practice within the 2e Paizo ruleset, at least in Pathfinder 2e for sure, and it also boosts Solarian ranged damage, not just melee skills. In 2e Paizo, attacking is not necessarily the best thing you can do in all situations, as combat maneuvers to debuff the enemy to set up another player's combo is highly recommended against powerful opponents. That said, you are correct from my assessment that there are many issues with the class, but I thought I could give my input on this.

As for auto fire weapons going off class fire while I agree that soldiers should definitely start with a small buff to class DCs to reflect their specializations with spray and pray type weapons, I don’t thing that’s a problem is with the auto fire action itself. As is soldier is the only class that gets legendary in class dc and mystics never even get above trained, there is plenty of differentiation. I have seen it proposed that rather than class dc the saving throw could be at your attack roll dc +10 and the MAP would apply.

I can’t say I agree with you on the weapons feeling worse than 5e. Other than adding dex to certain it feels like the only thing 5e does is different damage. I sort of agree about traits not feeling good on a first glance but the difference between a d4 weapon and a d12 damage is on average 4 damage so a +2 damage especially at lower levels where weapons are one of your main ways of customization options is two weapon dice.

Forgot to mention these points in the video itself, but they were in my previous one and still stand: A: I think they should introduce the Brutal Trait (Ranged Weapon that you can use Str to Attack with rather than Dex, aka inverse Finesse), onto several bigger Guns so Str has more of a place in SF2e and Dex isn't too much better. B: I would greatly appreciate some form of subcategory organization on the Weapon Tables beyond just Simple/Martial/Advanced, preferably into Small Arms (1-H), Longarms (lighter 2-H, combined with Snipers) and Heavy Weapons (the bulkier 2-H with Brutal) to make finding a certain type of gun. Analog vs Tech, Weapon Type and even Ammo Type could work, just please don't stay as a jumbled mess of a table.

You clearly went into this not wanting to like it, which is unfortunate. Your first criticism is invalid, this system is based off pathfinder 2e so you use the rules in that for character creation, including this: Alternate Ancesty Boosts The attribute boosts and flaws listed in each ancestry represent general trends or help guide players to create the kinds of characters from that ancestry most likely to pursue the life of an adventurer. However, ancestries aren’t a monolith. You always have the option to replace your ancestry’s listed attribute boosts and attribute flaws entirely and instead select two free attribute boosts when creating your character. Also, I have no idea why you are making a 6 hour video reviewing starfinder 2e when you have never played pathfinder 2e. This is an add-on to those rules, and by never having played them you have very little context as to how these add-ons actually work in with the system.

Hell yeah

1:02:05 Remake- a game that has the same name but completely different elements and story compared to the source material, remaster-the smae game but with updated graphics, so if say i update this with the UE4 or 5 engine

35:43 intro card flight

35:21 also just noticed that section is from the intro fight part

Thanks for having me on stream and this thumbnail is one of the best, also was it because OBS causing the echo on stream?

I wonder.... Why don't we ever show the garage and custom bike thing? Or maybe you could make a video on the whole custom bike thing? Using the 100% run? Great video regardless

It's always one of my fav lines between Mikey and Jake 25:20 it's like the developers knew the hair physics were all over the place

Little Droid that could 3:29:13

I wish I could find someway to stream with y'all ❤

This healing is even more broken if you consider the warlock invocation gift of the everliving ones and celestial warlock.. At 5th level.. You can self heal for 85 hitpoints and if you use your bonus action you self heal another 30.. That is probably even more broken than hexblade

Hard to believe this game is about 11 years old

Wooooo!!!!

Bruh, that UA is outdated, nothing on it is gonna stay the same.

Fix short rests? Unpossible!

All of the racial spells and the spells you obtain from the magic initiate feat say that you can cast it again with a spell slot when you run out of free castings, so they essentially double as a free prepared spells for casters.

I will say that PF2E doesn't have mandatory racial flaws since any class can just take +Free/+Free. It was added in the last errata pre-Remaster and is stated directly in the Remaster rulebook, the flaw is only for if you take the trade off on +3 stat ancestries. I won't get into any spots where I disagree with you on if something is a pro or con I'll just say that information is outdated. (Also on the topic of too many options, there are too many fucking gods that are all mechanically different while also having different flavor and I HATE it. It's great for flavor for their to be so many gods! I despise the gameplay of it since it means that clerics have like 1.2 million subclasses. The DND system is better and I say that as someone who hates 5E and loves PF2E)

Some advice my dude. Try not to pause so much. It made it difficult to listen to you but great work other wise!

It is constitution saving throw because of concentration checks. Don't want to lose concentration on your Faunt of Moonlight. Pretty sure Lunar Swipe was a carryover from templates. Returning to beast stat blocks means beasts with multiattack are going to be superior in combat because the damage buffs apply to all of them. I could have gotten behind disallowing multi attack and giving all beasts extra attack at higher levels. There is a weird interaction with Wild Shape where you can burn a spell slot (no action required) to give you a use when you are out and, since you retain class features while in Wild Shape, turn into another beast and re up your temporary hit points. You can do this in combat every round as long as you have Wild Shapes or Spell Slots to burn and a bonus action to use your Wild Shape.

You want to give daggers and short swords extra reach and the push or topple property? I get tying it to rage but heavy or versatile makes sense. Versatile weapons would also allow you to apply this as a dual wielder if you have the Dual Wielder feat. Use a scimitar with the nick property and you don't even have to give up your bonus action. Barbarians would probably want a battle axe (topple) or Warhammer (push) as their second weapon to apply both push and topple at the same time but you could use a longsword or War Pick instead which both have the Sap property.

Faunt of Moonlight is intended to primarily be cast in Wild Shape although there isn't anything stopping you from casting on your base druid form.

Good video, and informative. Being audio only, you may wanna consider a pop filter. The lip smacking at every comma and pause you take is rough

Congratulations, the KZbin algorithm sent me here.

EB is as it is, because Warlocks are not full casters and run dry very, very quickly due to the nature of Pact slots. They get EB & invocations for that. If you remove EB, you have a shitty wizard / sorc and there would be no point to playing them. In the same vein, 3rd attack for Blade ACTUALLY makes Blade finally competitive with EB at level 11 and beyond. It requires much, much more investment and puits itself in much more danger and has no inherent defensive capabilities, so it absolutely needs to outscale EB. At level 17 deal actually the same damage (unless you get + weapons). You could keep them at two attacks, but they would need to deal a full EB worth of damage ADDITIONALLY to make it worthwhile, otherwise EB is just way better. Removing the 3rd attack would make EB with Spellsniper in melee vastly outdamage Blade of the Pact. lol It's needed for intra-class balance. Instead of nerfing everything to the ground, Monk, Barb etc should be brought up instead, tho they have other means to increase their DPR as well. The math still puts Eldritch Knight & the Berserker above it (with resource consideration for all of them) and you are still squishy. It's actually fine. Maybe tie Smite to the BA similar to how Paladin has it in the UA, but otherwise it's actually in a balanced spot.

True Strike stacks with Pact of the Blade and stacks again with Radiant Soul on the celestial Warlock for triple Charisma modifier bonus damage. It isn't going to out damage triple attack and might be on par with Extra attack if you include Radiant soul. Single attack characters are going to benefit the most from this which why I think this should be on the cleric spell list. Nice catch on the non interaction with Agonizing Blast.

You can switch out special facilities every level but you might really like your level 5 facility and shouldn't have to switch it out just to gain more BP. I do like your suggestion of just having the facilities produce more BP based on character level instead of facility level. I do think getting a legendary item should require some investment. Increasing BP accumulation is probably a better option than reducing cost because I do feel that the cost for each item is relatively balanced against each other. Divided by two might work but I wouldn't go any lower than that. I would also like to see more options for using your points like using points instead of gold to upgrade facilities.

With the improvements to Pact of the Blade, Hex Blade can go die in a hole. You can get medium armor and shield proficiency with a feat from character creation or use lessons of the first ones. Level 4 is considered a prerequisite so it is still only first level feats and it additionally locks warlocks out of fighting style feats. I did like the generic stat blocks not only for Pact of the Chain but also for Find Familiar, and the Paladin's Steed. I don't want to see them go so I have them saved in a google doc. Chill touch becoming a touch spell means Warlocks finally have a damage spell on their list that they can cast through their familiar.

1 sorcery point for a free upcast of a spell is pretty good even if it is only on limited spells. They said they were going to add upcast options to more spells to work with this too like in the new Jump spell. I am going to laugh hysterically if they add an upcast option to Haste.

Posion spray is too much, but 1d10+cha is fair? This is still weaker then eldeitch blast. Keep it.

Shillelagh: 1- is magical. They are moving away from magic and non magic so the force replaces it 1- is insane for Fighters, warlocks, druids, and clerics 2- is not mutually exclusive so you can dual weild the clubs 3- wizards and sorcerers can use it to make staff attacks with mental stats (currently the new magic initiate will let you pick the casting modifier)

Produce Flame doesn't end when you hurl it. It says you can hurl fire for the duration of the spell (10 minutes) and more importantly does not say hurling fire ends the spell. Your bonus action will be free on subsequent turns if you don't have it precast but if you do have it precast your bonus action will be free right away even if you hurl fire every turn.

The Arcane Study can provide Blank Books to the Scriptorium but I'm not sure which non magical books would be worth copying. First thought is they could copy your spell book but that is obviously not non magical. Maybe a rare book from the library. Some facilities require you that you take a long rest in that facility (while others only require that you long rest somewhere in the bastion itself) to gain a benefit so no need for a bedroom.

1,000 gp is enough to cover the cost of resurrection which was most likely their design intent here.

Blade Ward seems quite weak. - You take the reaction before the attack is rolled. You might use this reaction on an attack that would have missed anyway. - It competes with Shield and Silvery Barbs, both of which are used after the attack hits - It is not compatible with the Earth Genasi, who gets to use Blade Ward as a Bonus Action

Adding True Strike to the cleric spell list would fix an issue i have with the cleric cantrips. I'd really find it fun if the cleric could have an attack cantrip. and with that, it would have! Both for ranged and melee, the spell doesnt say it has to be a melee attack, so it could work with a longbow as well as with a rapier! Plus this attack cantrip would have fantastic synergy with the potent spellcasting or divine Strike feature. I really really hope they add this spell as THIS version also on the cleric spell list. it would make me tremendously happy xD

Love your energy and pov of this ua, looking forward for more in the future 🎉

Blade ward is less uncanny dodge, which halves damage, and more like defender fighting style. This is for when you run out spell slots for shield spell ( depending if that stays the same )

Got recommended your video by the algorithm, think it might be handy if you can time stamp the video so each section has a clear name/timeframe. Also helps to keep you structured if you know that’s what you’re working to 😁

A dnd campaign take place on the brothers war time in dominaria sound cool tho

14:16 (since my phone wouldn't let me edit my prior comment) that must the trailer from the girl at the beginning lol

45:29 just realized that two of the girls were named Pro 1 and Pro 2... that's nuts lol
