Guns: Playtest Edition [Pathfinder 2e Animated]

[@shrimpisdelicious]

Most of the Dueling Pistol stuff I can get behind, but a gun in my other hand? Why would I do that when I can instead wield a Nunchuck in my off-hand (the true Gentleman's choice)?

[@DeadlyD8]

A man of culture I see. *tips hat*

[@Lechteron]

Pft! A true gentleman uses a sword cane and a dueling pistol. Dual Class Gunslinger and Investigator you could even call it a Duel Class.

[@michaelpoirier3370]

Part of me wishes they'd gone full meme and printed the WWI guns from the Reign of Winter with the rare trait, who doesn't want to play an Ulfen gunslinger who wields Mosin Nagant and wears an Ushanka?

[@DeadlyD8]

I love it, haha. Maybe talk with your DM about a reskin of one of these? Seems like a pretty reasonable request!

[@ChivalrousyWalrusy]

Remember this is bare bones playtest. Likely to be almost half again the number show here when it finally drops

[@TheTwinDagger]

Oh damn, you did this fast, it's really cool

[@DeadlyD8]

long nights and a lot of love, haha. glad you enjoyed the video!

Here's hoping that they'll add the OTHER guns from PF1e - like the extra-useful Peppergun (basically a gun with SIX barrels, which allows a gunner to shoot six times before reloading - but it takes six times as much time to reload, for obvious reasons) and the Fire Lance, that is EXACTLY what the name suggests: a flamethrower (although, since it uses black powder to fire, it can't go for large cones of flame and death like the modern ones; if you want a portable item that shoots gouts of flame in a decent area, fires many times with a short reload time and consumes next to no ammo... well, convince a friend to play a kobold and take Kobold breath, then wield him like a shotgun. Or just play a kobold yourself).

[@DeadlyD8]

I think they've pretty much confirmed more guns are to come, which is AWESOME. Can't wait to see where else they take it. Feel free to subscribe if you'd like to see more, and thanks for checking us out!

[@spiritB0mber]

Good I'm so happy though most off that comes from inventor. Great vid as usual

[@DeadlyD8]

thanks so much!

[@v1v10rnitier]

start with one of the new classes and multiclass/dedicate into the other!

[@thomasjenkins5727]

They don't have any sort of armor mitigation, which is a letdown. I've homeruled a trait I call Sundering for firearms that have the Fatal trait. On a non-critical hit, the firearm deals damage to the armor of the target equal to that armor's hardness. That was pretty much the only homerule I had to make for the Gunslinger because it's a pretty solid class. Unlike the Inventor. I had to do stuff to that class directly to make it workable for my players.

[@Argol228]

So you made them super broken for what reason? because your magic fantasy doesn't have realism? If you are going to add that to guns then you might as well add that slashing weapons can;t deal damage to armoured targets.

[@thomasjenkins5727]

@@Argol228 I made them "super broken" to fit the needs of my table and the game we were playing. If my table needed me to, I would make rules regarding armor type and damage types, such as making slashing weapons better against cloth, but worse against plate, and vice versa for bludgeoning damage... But my table didn't need that... They needed firearms to feel special. So I gave it to them.

[@lugh.i]

1:38 Little mistake here. Sniper Trait deals extra damage to FLAT-FOODED enemies. It is basically Backstabber with another name. Sniper: When you hit a flat-footed creature, this weapon deals 1 precision damage in addition to its normal damage. The precision damage increases to 2 if the weapon is a +3 weapon.

[@DeadlyD8]

Edit: Actually just decided to do some creative editing and took out the confusing wording. It will take a few hours for the video to process the update though.

[@FelixanderKurenai]

Love it! Keep going!

[@nugsnotdrugs7717]

Please tell me we'll get an updated version of this video for every single gun and new gun trait in Guns and Gears

[@DeadlyD8]

*cough*....s-senpai I don’t think I can...

[@nugsnotdrugs7717]

@@DeadlyD8 certainly not with that attitude, all we need is a questionable amount of caffeine and a lack of any semblance of a sleep schedule

[@chrismusto5624]

And if I understood correctly, these aren't even ALL the guns! What's included in the playtest is just what's available at level 1, and there will likely be guns in the Advanced category. Crazy times are on the horizon for Golarion.

[@DeadlyD8]

Agreed! Not to mention that the dueling pistol is listed as dueling pistol (level 1) which hints that there may be upgraded versions of it available.

[@ChivalrousyWalrusy]

@@DeadlyD8 less that and more that they're like full plate. If making a first level character you need special permission to buy one.

[@raptorjesues1445]

yikes, you are fast

[@DeadlyD8]

I’ve never seen a good yikes before, but I hope that was the first one 👀
